The International Version of the Buu-Kai Arc

[ShinGaijin]

I've just found the Korean opening in HD : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9kDeMgG4bNE
I know that the international opening is already avalaible, thanks to the French HD broadcast, but DBZ_Lee spent soooooooo much time trying to provide us this one few months ago, so I told myself that I should post it here so, this is for you, man ! xD

Thanks ShinGaijin! great quality, and no speed up like the PAL version.

So DarkSlayer224 on Reddit caught a little something on Kyle Hebert's Big Bald Podcast Episode 005 (apparently from last December) in which he interviews Sean Schemmel. Around 19 minutes in Sean talks a little bit about the Boo Kai dub, specifically the scene where Goku and Gohan say goodbye after Gohan has his potential unlocked: https://soundcloud.com/bigbaldbroadcast ... adcast-005

That was great!. Thank you very much for sharing this, I think it's very likely an announcement will be made shortly, if they are that far in to the Arc.

I wouldn't be surprised if they've finished recording. The french dub finished a few months ago, before they recorded battle of gods. It's just that Toei doesn't want it to air before in Japan.

There's very little chance of it airing before Japan finish anyway, so I don't think Toei are preventing them from doing anything with this.
We know Nicktoons and Vortex dropped Kai so that leaves only Toonami (and they are way back in the Namek Arc) who air episodes once a week.

The Fuji TV run is due to finish 5th July (providing no more breaks are scheduled) and I can see FUNi announcing it at Anime Expo which takes place that very weekend (2-5th).

It seems like they completely forgot about their NDA's. At the next convention, someone should just start asking about the Buu Kai dub to Schemmel, Sabat, and Hebert with questions like "What was it like to reprise the role of Gohan in Kai after so many years?" or "How would you compare the character of Majin Vegeta in the original dub to how he was in Kai?".

What shouldn't be asked is something like "What can you tell us about the Buu Kai dub?" because that gives them an opportunity to remember that they're not supposed to talk about that.

Best case scenario I could see announcement in July and they start releasing in August but thats hopeful thinking. But i could see it. Anyone agree?

I think it'll start releasing it in the fall with 3 months between parts.

[Theophrastus]

I've been thinking that maybe Funimation will try to pair their Kai Buu release with their release of One Piece Season 7 (which is ambiguously coming "this summer"), but who knows at this point.

dear God i hope its not 3. i pray its at most a 2 month gap. likely i imagine itll be 6 parts. so that would still take an entire YEAR to release it all to us at that rate. every 3 would take a year an a half. to hell with that :p

I have a bad feeling that it will indeed follow their release model for the One Piece voyage sets. So, if this does end up being the case, it will be a good 18 months before the parts are completed.

I understand why they do it for ongoing products (such as One Piece, where they are catching up with the dubbing) but if it's done, get it out. I think a 2 monthly part release schedule is more than sufficient.
Resurrection "F" will see it's home video release before we get Kai in it's entirety.

I'm not sure who you are referring to? I know for sure Toei prevented France from airing Kai episodes before them.

I'm referring to FUNi's unreleased dub. What I mean is, that even if they found a TV station to air it on, with only 12 episodes remaining of the Fuji TV run, there's no way they'd be able to jump ahead of Japan, unless they air multiple episodes daily.

With regards to the French dub, the intention was for them to catch up quickly, so they could simulcast, so they showed two episodes a day in order to do that.

I don't believe Toei are preventing them from announcing it, it's just that they aren't ready yet. With Sean still recording in December, there's no indication that they've finished yet - not that they need to before they can make an announcement, but if they are that far in, they may as well see it through to the end.

So I asked Drummond if he even knew who he was working for when he taped his lines for Kai.

The answer? Predictably mysterious.

Don't know?

[Baggie_Saiyan]

FUNi are heading to Tekko 2015 this weekend and they have say they have big plans, and their July solicts are likely to drop next week, so could we finally get an announcement and release date for Buu arc?

Here is a tidbit they wrote:

FUNimation Industry | Panel Room 1 | Saturday from 6pm – 7pm
From Akira to Dragon Ball Z, hear the latest news and information from North America’s largest anime distributor – FUNimation.

Fingers crossed.
