Official On-Going DBZ 2013 Movie Thread: "Battle of Gods"

[dbzfan7]

Haha regardless, we still don't have official subs.

Wouldn't matter. Herms has already done reviews on the official subs. They aren't 100% translations.

[ZombieVito]

So what exactly was said?

You can see his viz reviews. He also gave Kai a 7/10 in translations if I recall correctly.

[ZombieVito]

I meant his translation of the line. Did he translated it yet?

Are these very low sales? Or good numbers? And... Is it possible to still get the limited edition?

Yes and no. There are TV series that run for multiple volumes that do better than this. There's also the Madoka Magica films, which sold ninety thousand or so units in the first week or two. Then again, sales for Kami to Kami are spread over four different releases. There's also the theatrical gross of thirty million USD to take into account, too.

But where is the line? he just summarize it but I need to see the direct line. Guess I'll have to wait for that.

I think Bills didn't destroy earth for a few reasons. He claims he's low on stamina but it could be that because he's a cat he's also quite lazy, plus I think he likes Goku's interesting character.

I do like how after the fight he said he'd still destroy earth because he doesn't go back on his decision...then destroyed a tiny bit of earth.

Looking back again, I think he was tired, like how supressed Perfect Cell was weakened when he fought Goku.......

Another thing, about the 12 gods of destruction, hope Bills meant that they are as strong as him...

If I've done the math right, and there's quite the possibility I have not, the home release spread across the four versions has made almost $2,000,000. This isn't counting the Amazon exclusive.

Using the USD prices on CDJapan:

RE DVD: $38.02 * 18,860 units = $717,057.2
LE DVD: $78.05 * 15,856 units = $1,237,560.8
RE BD: $48.03 * 8,483 units = $407,438.49
LE BD: $88.05 * 20,805 units = $1,831,880.25

September 16-22, 2013 Total: $4,193,936.74

If you're talking about the line right before Beers and Goku have their first bout, it was something along the lines of "Although you don't seem like you could defeat (Freeza) now, it seems you can power up by becoming a Super Saiyan." I was somewhat going by a fansub for the second half, but from what I could tell, that's what Beers said.

Pretty much what you said. Herms has seen the movie an wouldn't add in a line like that if it didn't appear.

[ZombieVito]

I need that line word by word. He doesn't mention Freeza in that one line at all.

[Vegard Aune]

I need that line word by word. He doesn't mention Freeza in that one line at all.

今の君には倒せそうもないけど…
変異してパワーアップするらしいねぇ

ima no kimi ni wa taosesou mo nai kedo...
hen'i shite pawaa appu suru rashii nee

It's true, this line does not specify an object at all, though Freeza is the implied object here seeing how Beers had just asked if Goku beat Freeza. But if you want a literal translation with no additional info besides what is specifically given in this sentence in Japanese...
"The current you does not seem like he could defeat...
but seemingly transforms to power up." (Oh god that sounded so Google-translated that I cringe at the very idea that I just actually wrote that.)

[ZombieVito]

Interesting, where the hell did they get "anyone" for the Latin dub.

[Vegard Aune]

Interesting, where the hell did they get "anyone" for the Latin dub.

Probably by not paying enough attention to the overall context to realize that Beers was obviously referring to Freeza...
Eh, not a huge issue either way. I've seen more glaring flaws than that slip through in otherwise solid dubs.

[Daimo-Rukiri]

Beers mentions Freeza in the Japanese version. It's quite easy to tell even if you don't speak Japanese.

He only mentions him once, when he asks if he defeated him. That line can still be correct. We will have to wait for the official subs. It will be rare for the Latin dub to change a line like that.

Why? We have a synopsis on here that says he couldn't beat Freeza as he is.

Bills just asks where is Freeza, and if Planet Vegeta had been destroyed when waking up. Whis shows Goku beating Freeza, and obviously the rest is easy to follow,

I've been able to follow pretty well, did't catch the fat joke though.

[DragonBoxZTheMovies]

Did the scene where Goku temporarily regains Super Saiyan God (great moment!) remind anyone else of when Goku's about to use Kaioken x20 in the Anime?

To me, it's very obvious that Birus could have blown up the Earth and chose not to do so. I think he was absolutely neither tired nor weakened/lazy in any way.

The way he suddenly deviates his blast to the side, clearly towards that little rock, and clearly with a very small blast...
The way he turns back putting his hands on his waist and smiling when he says that he apparently has no power left for planetary destruction, with a "let's just pretend" feel...
The way Goku smiles saying "Lord Birus..." with a smile like "that decision you just made, what a nice surprise, I'm glad you likely changed your mind".

The way the scene plays overall, with the way characters move and speak, leaves not a single doubt to me that Birus just found an excuse to change his mind without directly acknowledging that. Because he likes his new potential friends, the strange warrior that Goku is, and the idea of coming back sometimes for some pudding.

I agree, the Kaioshin all remark that Beerus acted differently, and that Goku has that affect on people.
