This is America. [For me]

Answer me this...Why would they NOT add a feature that would add to more sales?

I've got the season sets and I've listened to ALL three tracks.
I know about all three, and I prefer the American voises AND the American music.

They should add it in, if this is to be the BEST out there; so it covers all the bases.
That's typical American arrogance.

How is that arrogant? You're acting ridiculous

You're displaying typical sub fan arrogance.

Because, this isn't aimed at you!

It's aimed at the Hardcore(i.e Japanese version fans).

It's evident when the have the Original Japanese version With subtitles
as the default setting.

I really don't see which part of that made me sound arrogant.

@Cash - So you are saying because I like the American version BETTER that I'm not a hardcore fan? Thats quite incorrect.

EDIT: And most of you are saying the JP version is better, like its some sort of 100% proven fact. Its an opinion. Some like one, some like the other.

I give up.....

We all are just defending WHICH version we like better, lets put that aside and go back to my original question...

Why would Funimation NOT include the soundtrack that they themselves added to the show since the beginning of them puttin out the DVDS? Especially when the Faulconer track would add sales to the DBox.

Because, there is no score for episode 1 through sixty-something.
It'd be more convenient for them just to use the original Japanese score.

That leaves the whole rest of the series WITH it though.

I just dont see a marketing standpoint for not including it.

Um...Nathan Johnson did the score for the first 67 episodes. I think his score is crap, but I've noticed that most Ocean Dub fans like it because it's similar to score for that, so they might as well put it there as well.

This is not aimed at dub fans!

LeprikanGT · Post by **LeprikanGT** » Thu Sep 10, 2009 5:44 pm

I'm well aware of that, but they have room to add it in.

The reason its for the JP fan is its the DBox footage and its starts off in Japanese. They couls spend a little bit more money and sell quite a bit more.

But it's still being released in North America.

Ugh, all of this arguing is getting really redundant. We should all (including me) just shut the fuck up until we get more info

Half of my point is people like Cash are trying to throw it out there that the Japanses version is better, and they aer WRONG...because the term 'better' is an opinion.

Just because you happen to like the dub and grew up with it doesnt NOT make you a hardcore fan.

Of course it is, that's why they're using SHARP CARTOONY BLUE FONTS! And HARDCORE YELLOW, because YELLOW IS HARDCORE, and is also why the set.... starts up... in.... Japanese.... BECAUSE IT'S HARDCORE! BAWBAHBAAAOW, that's a guitar noise by the way.

LeprikanGT · Post by **LeprikanGT** » Thu Sep 10, 2009 5:50 pm

If you dont like the dub then why would you even be okay with the English voices on there? Because you dont mind it being there? Ok, then you shouldnt mind Faulconer's music being there as well.

Grew up with it? That's irrelevant.

You don't see the folks who grew up watching the Ocean dub clamoring for Funimation to include the Saban soundtrack.

I loved the Ocean voices (well, some of them), but that music wasn't DBZ's music.

Aside from growing up with either one; EVERYONE seems to be saying that just b/c someone does NOT like the JP track, they are not true fans, and thats incorrect.

You can like or dislike the original soundtrack, that's fine. Nobody is forcing you to like anything. But like it or not, it's the real soundtrack of Dragon Ball Z, not Faulconer's replacement music. Faulconer's music is not part of the Toei anime series, Dragon Ball Z.

FUNimation said themselves that this isn't for the casual dub fans. So...yeah.
