The Dragonboxes are like a middle aged woman who still looks good through simply taking good care of her skin and body with maybe a tiny bit of makeup while the Orange Bricks are like a middle aged woman who get's 50 tons of botox, makeup and plastic surgery in order to look younger and as a result looks even worse. ~ ringworm128

If this was fake, Funimation is certainly taking their time saying as much.
"I like the money it brings in, but Dragon Ball Heroes is the worst. That's actually the real reason I decided to start working on new material. I was afraid Bandai would make something irredeemably stupid like Super Saiyan 4 Broly." - Akira Toriyama, made up interview, 2013.

The UPC code, supposedly, is legitimate as it is coming out of Decatur, Texas where Funi DVD's come from... huh. Can anyone confirm this?

I finally got my account approved so I can start commenting on this!
Anyways, this seems to be looking real by what we have to go on so far. I wonder if FUNimation will also release this on Blu-Ray like they do with most, if not all, of their titles now a days.

Welcome to Kanzenshuu! I kinda doubt this would get a Blu-ray release. The only way would be if they did a new transfer or used the level sets quality. and I honestly don't see that happening.Fennekin wrote:I finally got my account approved so I can start commenting on this!

Re: Listing for "Ocean Dub"-specific DBZ in July
Even though I'm not a dubbie, a full-series, Dragon Box-quality dub with a faithful script and Japanese music is a very intriguing prospect indeed.
I still remain skeptical until something official comes around, but it's still very bizarre. I feel like the market for this is, what, 25-years-old and up? Shit, it was certainly before my time. I just can't imagine that there's a market large enough for 15-year-old nostalgia. After all, most of the kids who started on Kai weren't even born when this cast was dubbing the series.
The cover has to be fake. With the vast amount of renders out there, this could've easily been put together by anyone with an ancillary knowledge of Photoshop or even Gimp. I can't even fathom an official product sporting DRAGON DRAGON, ROCK THE DRAGON, DRAGON BALL Z as a header. If it is, though... god help us.

Pretty much. I figure if this was a hoax like that blatant Dragon Ball Blu-ray hoax recently, I'd imagine it would've been revealed as such by now.Super Saiyan Prime wrote:If this was fake, Funimation is certainly taking their time saying as much.

Re: Listing for "Ocean Dub"-specific DBZ in July
Huh, well I was talking with Vegeta... and he said something along the lines that he wish he could do "a serious dub of Dragonball, straight to DVD. A more adult version with more of the swears and a better script." Seriously, that's what he said. I don't know if he is alluding to one that he did uncut or he is being literal and the dub is heavily censored. Ah well.

Saying "I was talking with Vegeta" kinda makes you look a bit insane.

Keep in mind that DBZ Level 1.1 had "I am the hope of the universe" on its box.Thanos wrote:I can't even fathom an official product sporting DRAGON DRAGON, ROCK THE DRAGON, DRAGON BALL Z as a header. If it is, though... god help us.
Because swearing makes something "more adult", right? To me, it seems like they're just pandering (is that the right word?) to 12 year old's.Attitudefan wrote:A more adult version with more of the swears and a better script."
I'm gonna stick to my theory that the product description is just a mistake, because honestly, having the Ocean Group redub both Z and Kai doesn't make a whole lot of sense.

Re: Listing for "Ocean Dub"-specific DBZ in July
Maybe. Still kind of true... kind of, in a weird way hah! Yeah, but I think the script is for sure censored. Brian Drummond, I guess, is disappointed that maybe he wasn't given the same opportunity as Sabat and Schemmel?ringworm128 wrote:Saying "I was talking with Vegeta" kinda makes you look a bit insane.

Re: Listing for "Ocean Dub"-specific DBZ in July
They should do a full "fifteening" and make it sound like the dub of Cyber City Oedo, with characters swearing like Anime Labs wrote the scripts. It'll be like DBZ meets Tarantino. Get Christoph Waltz to voice Freeza while you're at it. Make it seem like Black Lagoon is for pussies.
In fact, get Maryke Hendrikse for Bulma and have her swear up a storm around Gohan. Make it seem like she's trying to seduce him.
Really spice things up.

Re: Listing for "Ocean Dub"-specific DBZ in July
Although I already own all 17 DVD volumes of the Ocean dub that Pioneer released (plus the first three movies), I wouldn't mind purchasing this, and putting it in my Dragon Ball collection.

Re: Listing for "Ocean Dub"-specific DBZ in July
I might go back and watch the Ocean Dub of Z again and decide if I want to buy it. One major factor would have to be the "re-dubbing" meaning the episodes Ocean never dubbed actually getting dubbed this time around.
