Dragon Box easter egg

Post by pipe » Sun Feb 19, 2012 3:42 pm

I just finished finished watching the last disc of Dragon Box vol. 4 and when it returned to the main menu, this caught my eye.

ONLY THREE VOL LEFT


I never paid attention to those hieroglyphics and always thought they were meaningless. What other easter eggs have you found while watching DB?

Hate to break it to you, but all of them have already been discovered :).

Wow, that's cool. :)
The Dragonboxes are like a middle aged woman who still looks good through simply taking good care of her skin and body with maybe a tiny bit of makeup while the Orange Bricks are like a middle aged woman who get's 50 tons of botox, makeup and plastic surgery in order to look younger and as a result looks even worse. ~ ringworm128

So each copy had an exact number of limited production, I wonder what's mine.

Thanks for this, I too thought that was just meaningless letters and numbers.

"Only 3 vols left" was referring to volume 5, 6, and 7. No, you didn't get the 3rd to last set. :P

From this I infer that at the time of production of Box 6, they were planning on releasing Box 7, and another box, possibly the movies. Unfortunately, that is no longer the case. :(

FUNimation might release the Dragon Box TM now seeing that the fans want it so much, including me, so yeah, please FUNi.

Never been aware of this, quite interesting. :)
