Had the FUNimation/Saban team continued...

Discussion regarding the entirety of the franchise in a general (meta) sense, including such aspects as: production, trends, merchandise, fan culture, and more.

If they continued, depending on how you think they would've done. Like how they laid off like how later seasons of PR and Digimon, or doing how they already did. Personally glad Funimation took over and Saban laid off on the other two's censorship (at least before 9/11).

I'm just happy that Funi went back and tried to fix what Saban did by making the Ultimate Uncut Editions.

Ya, I guess they didn't realize that they also needed to fix the stuff they had released too. :wink:

It seems like Funi released the UUE's to replace what Saban had released.
I was saying that Funi should have continued releasing the UUE's because they should have replaced what they had put out too.

In other words, the UUE's were a replacement for what Saban released but Funi didn't release that they should have have used the UUE's to replace they had released too.

Am I making sense now? I can try to explain it a little better if I have to.

I could just imagine...

I kinda miss those stupid edits... In this case, it would be OK for Goku to bite Boo, but not hold him down while he bites him. I always get a kick out of those odd censors...

Woah! How did you get the sunset in the background of that picture !? Wasn't it daytime in that scene ?
I completely respect your opinion, and I respect you. I enjoyed discussing this with you, even if I don't completely agree.

If we're all here for a reason then I'm just visiting.

If it's held in your heart then you can't let go.

If I remember correctly, the sky changed while he was using that attack and then went back after he was finished.

If FUNi had done the entire series with Saban, DBZ likely would've been reduced to about 200 episodes.

And then, years later, we could've eventually gotten the extra 91 episodes of footage released in an "Ultimate Uncut" format. You know, maybe.

I'm rather glad Pioneer didn't have the license or we'd all be boned in getting any DBZ releases (In case you've been living under rock Pioneer became Geneon, and Geneon is dead...and ironically FUNimation bought a few of their licenses to bring some things back).

If Geneon had the full Dragonball license, they wouldn't have run out of business.
The series doesn't start with the arrival of Raditz. Stop being lazy and watch Dragonball.

Vegeta's death: Possible Saban version.

Vegeta would probably fade into the next dimension and Goku would playing with dirt for no reason.

Haha!

Every time I think of the "Cargo robot" and the "Parachutes" I can't help but laugh.
