Buh, I hate waiting so many months for mere 10/11 but nothing to do other than wait. I actually care more for Ep. 92 Z Kai Nicktoons than the FUNi DBZ Kai Blus. :P

What makes me wonder, if after they put this set back to market, and this time it will include Kikuchi score, will people be able to ask for exchange?

Hopefully. There'd be some complaints if not.

Probably is Kikuchi. If not...I'm gonna laugh SO hard.

I will. I mean why not? Whatever score they add, is the score we're stuck with. There is no other option.

I might get it this time since it's now reshocked. I'm pretty positive that this set is now version 2.0 with the Kikuchi score. Be warned though, the Saiyan saga has a lot of Cell themes. :P

That's true, though, it's a mix we have.

Based on the Brazilian Kai dub, the placement is pretty good (imo), so I might after all consider buying Z Kai Season One for Kikuchi's music.

Check here Z Kai Ep. 14 BR: http://dbkaidublado.blogspot.com/2011/0 ... rie-z.html

Toei should've just had Kikuchi compose new BGM's for Kai than Yamamoto, but the placement of Nagasaki is quite good, not as bad as people say. However, dragonballmchange77's (from YouTube) done a better job. :P

Is it everywhere that's re-stocked or just amazon? I've noticed that the Blu-ray's for season 1 are back, but the DVD's are still out of print.

Its most likely is due to the fact that people have traded in some copies for goodies, like giftcards, which is one reason some items come back to life. Or maybe they got a few extra copies from whatever provider they have. Either way, I'm sure they're still the Yamamoto ones.

I mean if we want to be 100% sure someone can always shoot an email to FUNimation.

I'll do this later.

Edit: Sent them the message. I wrote:
Funrush wrote: Dear Product Concerns,

Somewhat recently, Dragon Ball Z Kai Season 1 was released. Many fans were confused when they realized that the set had the musical score composed by Kenji Yamamoto, who composed the music for Kai Parts 1-4 and not Shunsuke Kikuchi's music which was in Parts 5 and 6. A little while back, these sets were taken off the market, and some stores said that the reason was because of problems with the content. More of us fans just thought that this meant that you guys just mixed up the music scores, which is understandable. My question is, was the problem because of the music, and will you release the sets with the Kikuchi score?

Thank You.

Looks like Season One is now $50.00. Can anyone confirm the version that Amazon is selling is the one with Kikuchi?

100% sure someone in FUNimation messed up big time. Once FUNi releases Season 1 with the Kikuchi score (if they haven't already) i bet the people buying them from eBay will be pissed if the get the one with the Yamamoto score.

Hate to bring this thread back, but does anyone have word on whether or not the re-stocked Season One boxes have Kikuchi's score?
