That leaves all of 2015 for Kai
July 9th 2018 will be remembered as the day Broly became canon.

Green tint? Are you talking about Kai or season 7?

I like the cover but it kinda feels empty. And also how come funimation didn't put Fat Boo and Super Boo on seasons 8s and 9s cover?

Nice!!!!! I love that cover! :)

Mr. Satan looks like a nutcracker.

Also, Kid Buu isn't even looking at Goku. His gaze is directed well to the side of him.

At least the cover is less crowded this time around.

If anyone still cares, I went ahead and updated the first post for what might be the last time. Hopefully FUNi will update their store with a non-crappy version of "season" seven's cover so that the whole thing can be complete.

As always, I wanna talk about the bonus features!

"Inside Dragon Ball Z: Interview With Josh Martin"
"Inside Dragon Ball Z: Interview With Chris Rager"
"From East To West: Dragon Ball Z's Epic Journey"
"A Completely Serious Discussion About The Comedy Of Dragon Ball Z"

I'm wondering if the "From East To West" featurette will possibly mention (or maybe even show) the original Japanese cast and crew. The comedy featurette has the potential to be horrible if they start praising all of the dub-only jokes and rewrites, but we'll just have to see. Also, I notice that this set is advertised as having five discs instead of the usual four. I wonder if the bonus features are just that long.

Anybody disappointed that we didn't get anything you were hoping for? Or are you satisfied with the platter of supplements we've gotten with these blu-rays?

I've kinda-sorta got them assembled on the first post of the thread, but you probably had something bigger in mind.

Ta-da? The last one doesn't really work without tinkering because the "not final" version of the "season" seven cover is a little awkwardly laid out.

It does look better when they are all lined up. Anyone display them like this?

"Season" 7 cover was updated a bit so they should align better:

I did notice that, but I don't have the technical know-how to "turn" that image so that it's the same angle as the other covers (if that even can be done).

Somebody else is going to have to "cover" that one (Doh-ho-ho!).

I've gotta say, this was rather quick. Didn't Season one come out literally a year ago?

Yeah, that stood out to me as well.
