What do people in Japan who watched Kai first think of Z?

Post by Ringworm128 » Wed Feb 13, 2013 12:06 am

I remember there apparently being Japanese fans who grew up with Z that didn't like the new voice for Reacoom and thought that they should have used Kikuchi's music right from the start, which makes me wonder. What do anime fans in Japan who didn't watch Z until after they saw Kai think of Z?

I posted a similar question a while ago and Kei17 answered it, he said the Japanese fans weren't happy with the change of music but probably also the picture quality, considering it's a 2009 series it should have had much better quality in HD.

Thanks, but my question was what Japanese people who saw Kai first think of Z, not the other way round. :?

How the hell would any of us know for sure? Seriously, it's not like you can sum up how some people in a far off country reacted as a whole to a show.

Far off? It's not like this forum is restricted to people from just one country or anything.

Kei17's Japanese, and knows quite a bit about the Japanese fandom, and there is at least one other member who currently resides in Japan.

Alright, I'm sorry. It's just that this sort of thread gets me peeved.

I met some kids who grew up with Kai at the Hoko x Tate auditions, so I should have asked them what they feel about Z.
