It may take a while, but it works. I recommend doing it five minutes beforehand. Dragon Ball Kai airs at 8 PM EST on Saturday night . 9 AM Sunday morning in Japan, I believe.

I feel all helpful now. <3

Thank you!! The Quality is Great!! MUCH better than Keyhole!
Also, for anyone who wants Easy-access, take the URL for FujiTV (which is tvants://list.tvants.com/tvants/?k=b8169561515263ca67a79bd632ed8816 ) and make it a Bookmark in your browser, then clicking it will automatically open Fuji in the Program

Which browser are you using?
Most browsers at that point should have asked you what "Outside Program" you wanted to set for that protocol.

Could kei17 or Julian inform us more on the text around this Luffy/Goku image? Are they planning a cross over oav...?
Dream 9. It's just an advertisement for the fact both will be on at 9 AM in a power hour.

Holy fuck, Luffy's shirt is blue now. When did that happen? I guess it's easy to not know that when both the anime and manga in the U.S. are drastically behind.

Lately, Luffy's been taking a page from the rest of the crew's books and has started switching up his outfits for each arc. Two arcs ago it was red shirt and black shorts, then it was orange shirt and red shorts, now it's blue shirt and black shorts...

I've been catching up on all the Dragonball Kai info and my personal opinion is that I'm not that psyched about it because when you get right down to it, it's the same story just wrapped in a new package. I'm not up in arms about it and I'll check it out to see how it turns out, but I'm just not that excited about it.

Though I am disappointed that they've replaced Kikuchi's music, it's comforting to know that the new composer has been involved with the franchise almost as long as Kikuchi has so I feel that the music is in capable hands and probably won't end up hating it like I do the dub music.

So I haven't been keeping up here as much lately and I also didn't check the site on April Fools day, but I think I saw some people talking about the Dragonball Kai opening/intro thing? Is it on youtube or something? (And yes I already checked the Daizex main page)

It was just a random Bollywood clip up on the fake Kanzentai front page.

I used Freshverse when I watched Code Geass R2 live. There were about 500 people in the chat on average and it still didn't lag too much. Good stuff.

But I need to know where everyone from Daizex is going to be watching it. We should get a chat going at the same time.

Have you also used TVants? Which one would you say is better?

I've been thinking the same thing. The chatroom seems perfect, but I know a lot of people don't have the whole mIRC thing set up and aren't really keen on using the chatroom, so maybe setting up a whole new thread specifically for a live discussion as the episodes are airing will be in order?

Here's the videothat was supposed to be the opening; the great thing was that Hujio set the initial image (the image that is showing before you hit play on the video) to be one of the newly animated scenes from the 40th Anniversary special. You can read about the whole 2-way prank in this thread.

Woah, yeah, looks like I'll be watching from TVants now, too. I'm on Pacific time, so it'll be on at 5PM for me. Thank god it's not airing on TV later at night, otherwise I'd have to tune in early in the morning :?.

So, I'm guessing a good number of people will be in the chat while it airs? Some kind of side commentary would be great as we all watched it.
