Dragon Box Volume Five cover!

[JulieYBM]

From AoDVD:



Figures it'd be Gohan. Too bad a Super Saiyan 2 Gohan wasn't drawn in this style...

[Great Saiyaman I]

Although I think this box and Box 2's coverart could've been switched, this is still super-smexy-cool.

[B]

Argh, a few choice pre-Buu episodes are on this...

[Gaffer Tape]

Um... am I the only one who's noticing there are only going to be 41 episodes on this one? That's... a bit odd...

There's also the weird thing that the dragon image wraps around onto the spine. That's probably just a mock-up mistake, though.

[jjgp1112]

Probably so set 7 won't have under 40 episodes.

[kingvegito]

10 bucks says the rest of the boxes will have 41 episodes.

[Gaffer Tape]

Hmm, the numbering is also weird. This one is marked as FN-02244, when the last one was FN-02267. Now, the first one WAS FN-02240, so if each one had continued numerically like that, this one would be FN-02244. Again, it's probably just because it's a mock-up, but, I dunno. It just seems weird to me, especially since fans have been making similar mock-ups ever since Box 4 came out.

10 bucks says the rest of the boxes will have 41 episodes.

I wouldn't bet against it. However, this does raise the question of potential extras. Now that it seems there won't be any significant difference in content between the boxes, it doesn't provide as much of an opening for bonus material under the six disc format.

[Gaffer Tape]

That's exactly what I was thinking...

[Great Saiyaman I]

Maybe this one will have the textless songs or something? Only reason I could think of.

[OutlawTorn]

I also noticed that while the release data on Amazon remains the same, the release date has been updated from February 8 to February 22 on DVDAficionado.

[Daimo-Rukiri]

Rightstuff also has it for the 22nd as well. Will they finally start adding extras><?!!!!!

[Chibi Gohan]

Gohan finally got on the cover of a boxset release.

Expected though.

[Daimo-Rukiri]

I'm thinking Piccolo is next than Super Goku! or.. the other way arround.

[NUDEoctopus]

Gosh, this box cannot come fast enough for me. Glad Gohan finally got his cover, but it seems a little late.

Goku, Freeza, Gohan, Cell, Vegeta, Piccolo then SSJ Goku would have made more sense in that order, I think.

I'd bet we don't get any extras. I want them oh so badly, but it just seems unrealistic. FUNi is awesome for releasing this, but I don't think they are THAT awesome. I am hoping beyond hope that we get the TV specials though.

[BluezaBladeNZ]

Woah, looks like my cover prediction from the other thread was dead-on.

[Travis Touchdown]

I think they just put off using Gohan for as long as they could. Every time it would have made sense to use Gohan for a cover, they'd use something out of left field. I think Gohan would have been better for Box 3 or 4 but I'm glad he finally made it.

[Gotham22]

Gohan finally gets his moment.

[penguintruth]

It's too bad it's not SSJ2 Gohan. But it still looks good.

I can hardly wait to get this set! It has my favorite episodes of any DB series, the Cell Games!

(Er... minus the episode that's just Mr. Satan and his group fucking around... that's not one of my favorites.)

[Gaffer Tape]

Considering the image of Gohan they were working with, this box seems fairly logical. It would have made more sense for it to have been Box 4, but then the Cell image would have been outdated for Box 5. Overall, I think it was a good choice since, as of the beginning of Box 5, it had been less time since we've seen Gohan like that than we'd seen Cell like that.
