Dragon Ball Z: The Ascended Cut (W.I.P.) [Saiyan Saga released!] (BD 4:3 Hi-10 1080p)

[Masquerade]

Don't mean to bump this thread up, but it baffles me why the OP thinks Monica Rial and Colleen Clinkenbeard as Bulma and Gohan sounds natural as TIMESKIP voices. Like, what? They have higher pitched voices so if anything, Tiffany Volmer and Stephanie Nadolny work better for older voices.

I may have stated this earlier, but I've pulled back on that idea a while ago. Volmer and Nadolny are staying for the whole run (and now that there's AI tools available, this should be easier to do now).

And I come with an update: The entire Saiyan Saga is being dumped onto the Internet Archives!

These are huge file sizes though it takes about 6 hours for one episode to upload. Expect all 24 episodes of this run to be on there in about three weeks, and then I'll go back to tweaking the Namek episodes of this cut until I find them acceptable for release.

Did you make any more episodes past 43? I love all the effort you put into these

I'll do the whole thing, but right now about 45 is where I left off progress-wise

I’ve changed the name of this project to The Ascended Cut. The word “Legacy” keeps leading people to Legacy of Goku-related shit in searches and the “30th Anniversary” moniker is outdated by now (and confusing considering the existence of those compromised Blu-rays of the same name).

I’ve also begun to implement A.I. very sparingly in cases where the dialogue was obviously censored for the original VA’s and/or any inconsistencies that may come up using both the Kai and original voices.

Here’s a test:

Not a good look that THIS is what I use as the first AI change (I’m probably on a list now), but it is what it is.

You’ll begin to see The Namek Saga / 1st half of Ginyu populate on Archive.org this week.

I decided to keep the Fake Namek filler, but heavily cut down the four episodes into just one and re-framed it to feel like a 50's b-movie.

Here's the result.

keeping fake namek is craaaaazy

love the concept of the project though, glad to see it's still going

I made a version with the Rock the Dragon opening and outro. I've gotten all the Saiyan Saga done and will eventually work on Namek pt 1. Once the Android Saga comes out I will use the classic Funi Dub intro and outro like the Dragon Ball Z: FUNimation Cut . I also added chapters. If any ones interested let me know.
