The real question is : Why Funimation Entertainment blocks dragonball z videos only in Japan ? Shouldn't this be Toei's job ?Why is the video blocked in Japan by the way? It says FUNimation owns it, but from what I know, they block videos that are detected automatically by a program that uses the original videos given by the right holders. Has FUNi licensed 2008 special?
When was this planned for? I hope there are still chances of it happening...kei17 wrote:That's an interview with Masahiko Ibaraki, the chief editor of Square Jump, in which he says that there once was a plan of a sequel of Dragon Ball, but it was canceled.

Superman is, and always has been, a symbol for truth, justice, and upstanding moral fortitude–a role model and leader as much as a fighter. The more down-to-earth Goku has no illusions about being responsible for maintaining social order, or for setting some kind of moral example for the entire world. Goku is simply a martial artist who’s devoted his life toward perfecting his fighting skills and other abilities. Though never shy about risking his life to save either one person or the entire world, he just doesn’t believe that the balance of the world rests in any way on his shoulders, and he has no need to shape any part of it in his image. Goku is an idealist, and believes that there is some good in everyone, but he is unconcerned with the big picture of the world…unless it has to do with some kind of fight. Politics, society, law and order don’t have much bearing on his life, but he’s a man who knows right from wrong.
It would've been interesting to see Flow do the opening with actual Cha-La Head Cha-La visuals, altho, new visuals have already been done for the JSAT, so I'd wonder what else they could do instead of rehashing thatDBZGTKOSDH wrote:The last movies (Movies 11, 12, 13, and the 10th Anniversary) didn't have either.TheRed259 wrote:That's weird .kei17 wrote:There was no opening.

Movies 11 and 12 had them, if I remember right. They didn't abandon the TV opening song sequences for the movies until movie 13.DBZGTKOSDH wrote:The last movies (Movies 11, 12, 13, and the 10th Anniversary) didn't have either.

He talked about that already kinda.Zombie wrote:kei17 did Piccolo did something else in his fight than that dumb looking kick? for some reason I didn't liked how that looked.

Did you mean that the Karaoke scene was only one still image and that was his most memorable moment in the movie or was it something else?
That's what I think as well. It's cool to learn something new everyday.SSJ4 Furanki wrote:I feel like it got cancelled since Toriyama probably got sick of working on Dragon Ball at that time and Toei probably had GT planned for a while, they asked him for some small input and he saw it as win-win so he wouldn't have to do any more serialization. That's my theory, haha.
I hope the reception to the movie changes is mind and he decides to make a new manga or at least a couple of more movies.Hellspawn28 wrote:That's what I think as well.

When's that established?Sin wrote:I wonder if you can remember whether or not you saw Dr. Briefs at Bulma's party? I ask only because he died around age 780 in Future Trunks' timeline
Guess that was an anime scene. Still hes nowhere to be scene 17 years later.In the Alternate Timeline, it is revealed by Future Bulma that he had passed away sometime before Age 780. However, it is unknown what his cause of death was, he could have been killed when the Androids destroyed West City or from natural cause.
