Good episode, but the pace has clearly slowed, so it was a little bit booooring ... Shino Kakinuma's performance was very convincing, when Videl learned about Gohan's "death".

This is really 1:1 to Z. It's ridiculous.

Re: Kai Episode 123 (28 September 2014)
Even though I can stand the pacing (it's still faster) this is one of the parts of buu saga that I didn't like so much. XD I'm just waiting for Goku to go ssj3.
There's room for only one snake, and one big boss.
Re: Kai Episode 123 (28 September 2014)
And they're gonna leave in that little fight between Popo and the kids? Wow. Only the upcoming good English dub keeps me interested in Kai, because for the Japanese side of things, as of now, Z seems to be superior.
Re: Kai Episode 123 (28 September 2014)
Complaints about pacing aside, this is the episode where everyone seems to have had the idiot ball shoved onto them. Why does everybody still think that Gohan is dead when they just asked Shenlong to bring back everyone who died that day?! I can understand thinking that Gohan died, but after that wish, they shouldn't still be thinking he's dead!

Re: Kai Episode 123 (28 September 2014)
^ This is because they trust their perception of auras above all. To them, if Gohan was alive, they would feel his aura, period.
And this is precisely what Goku will tell Videl when she says she believes that Gohan still lives, something like: "nah-uh, sorry to break it to you, but no aura, zero chance he's still alive, that's pretty much it, nothing to discuss here. But that would have been nice."
Even if they thought the wish would ressurect him, they would go: "oh, but we still can't sense his aura. Somehow it didn't work for him, he's dead." much like when they tried to ressurect Cell's victims and Goku wasn't part of it, it was immediately: "can't sense his aura, so he's dead and the wish didn't work for him".
Perceiving auras is the way they instantly make definitive conclusions, no need for them to think further than "aura state = this, so person state = that", regardless of why it could possibly be that way or not.

While the pacing may be slow for what Kai is supposed to do it isn't bad, like, compare the pacing of the Majin Boo arc to the Great Saiyaman arc and you'll see that Boo's arc got it far better. The Saiyaman arc for the Japanese cut was bloody awful.JEFFMAN219 wrote:Wow did the pacing really get worse with the last 3 episodes?

Re: Kai Episode 123 (28 September 2014)
Popo vs SSJ Goten and Trunks is still there? And that green tint, are they even trying? It's like "We don't care, just finish this, and move on" I'm sorry, but at this point, not even English dub will save it for me. I'd rather watch GT than this unholy piece of animation (Borrowed from Somecallmejohnny)

Is the Green tint part of the remastering ? cause with BOG some countries got the movie with the same tint while others like NA didn't so if it's not then there's still a chance Funi will remove it.coola wrote:Popo vs SSJ Goten and Trunks is still there?

I don't know why people are expecting FUNimation to remove it if anything they'll increase the brightness and use English text cards only (well, the International version is already in English so this time it's not exactly their fault).sintzu wrote:Is the green tint part of the remastering?

Wait, what? There's no green tint on any foreign Battle of Gods release that I've seen (which is the Hong Kong and Mexican versions).sintzu wrote:Because BOG didn't have it in their release while other releases did.

Re: Kai Episode 123 (28 September 2014)
I can confirm that the Spanish release doesn't have it either. I had previously watched the movie in Japanese (I don't know the source though) and there wasn't green tint.VegettoEX wrote:Wait, what?

However, I do remember seeing some kind of image comparison which showed how there was a slight green tint, although it wasn't as bad as in Kai.

Did anyone else notice that Dr. Briefs wasn't played by Joji Yanami this episode? I know he gave up his role as Babidi, but any thoughts on why he decided to give up Dr. Briefs after already reprising the role in the previous phase of Kai?

Re: Kai Episode 123 (28 September 2014)
You're comparing the Kai Majin Boo arc which is a remaster (not very good though) of a 20 year old anime series and Battle of Gods is a newly produce anime film, so again, the green tint wouldn't be there anyway.sintzu wrote:Because BOG didn't have it in their release while other releases did.
This fixation that Kanzenshuu members have with the green tint is tiresome.

^Yeah, as an Orange Brick owner I'm not very concerned about minor details. These things can even vary depending on the TV you have. Whenever these pictures are posted it's pretty much a game of "spot the differences".dbboxkaifan wrote: This fixation that Kanzenshuu members have with the green tint is tiresome.

Re: Kai Episode 123 (28 September 2014)
In my opinion, this green tint is very noticable, to point it even changes character hair, Cardcaptor Sakura on BD also have some green tint, but not to this extent.dbboxkaifan wrote:This fixation that Kanzenshuu members have with the green tint is tiresome.sintzu wrote:Because BOG didn't have it in their release while other releases did.

Whenever the colours didn't look right to me on the HDTV for Dragon Ball I'd try to tweak them, and yeah, it ends up messing up something else but overall I was fine with it and pleased also, so this is probably what I'll do for the Final Chapters of Kai on Blu-ray.
