It also refers to the New DBxOP Power hour as "Jump Hour! Dream 9!"

Hot damn. If there's anyone who sounded as close as possible, it was definitely him.

In addition to the news of seiyu, Toei put the latest trailer of Kai on the official site.
http://www.toei-anim.co.jp/tv/dragon_ka ... kai512.asx

On the trailer, finally there is a re-drawing of the footage.
Look carefully at Goku's eyebrows, size of pupils and the shapes of his right shoulder.

Previous showed pics from Kai are awesome, but in my opinion, I like more the original animation of Goku changing by the time a shown in 1st TV special then the new Kai re-drawn version)))

Ooh, digging the One Piece / DB scan! Kinda misleading on DB's part, though.

Technically, isn't the entire series being "redrawn?" I mean looking at that one YouTube clip, it looks like each frame is being redrawn for DBKai with some slight movements of the camera accordingly and some bits added to the sides.

Sorry, I meant that as a separate thought.

I am psyched for DBKai!

Nobody ever said every frame was getting redrawn.

Finally. Definitive proof that Goku does mature between ages 12 and 15.

If they were going to redraw it...why not make it look like they did on their Special? And why not make it uncropped? Oh and notice how the image is fading back? Maybe the size of the eyebrow changes as the picture zooms out. It just doesn't look any different to me. I don't know why they'd ever touch that scene. It looks pretty much the same to me.

Tenshinhan: Hikaru Midorikawa

Sweet, I've always loved 16's voice. Here are all of the other characters Hikaru Midorikawa has voiced over the series (thanks to the awesome credit-translations of Hujio and DBW of Kanzentai):
1) バッター Batter (DBZ: 10)
2) 兵士 Soldier (DBZ: 72)
3) 兵士Ｂ Soldier B (DBZ: 4) [Movie]
4) ガッシュ Cashew (DBZ: 108 – 114)
5) 人造人間１６号 Artificial Human No. 16 (DBZ: 134 – 185) [Final]
aka: １６号 Number 16
6) パイクーハン Paikuhan (DBZ: 195 – 279)
パイクーハン Paikuhan (DBZ: 12) [Movie]
All just minor background characters, but good to know.

Could you save the file and then upload it to a web-storage site, cause I can't play it, and I know a lot of others can't either (if you'd like, you can just e-mail it to me and I can upload it).

It won't work for me either, but I think I found it on YouTube. Since these haven't really been too heavily discussed yet, here are the second and third Kai promo's in .mp4 format off of YouTube, but the second one was simply cam-recorded and the beginning seems to be chopped off:
