What exactly Kai supposed to be?

Post by coola » Thu Mar 03, 2011 6:05 pm

I`ve read al Kai topics,but i didnt find answer to this question,for Japan,what exactly is Kai? I mean,how Toei advertised it? As new Anime closer to Manga, or remastered Dragon Ball Z with less fillers?

It was advertised as a "refreshed" version of DBZ that would be closer to Akira Toriyama's original story in celebration of the 20th anniversary of DBZ from the very first promos.

And now it is about as accurate to Akira Toriyama's story as GT is.
"I like the money it brings in, but Dragon Ball Heroes is the worst. That's actually the real reason I decided to start working on new material. I was afraid Bandai would make something irredeemably stupid like Super Saiyan 4 Broly." - Akira Toriyama, made up interview, 2013.
