Discussion regarding the entirety of the franchise in a general (meta) sense, including such aspects as: production, trends, merchandise, fan culture, and more.
Long ago I remember seeing a website (black border, lots of text and pictures) that has a very deep comparison of all the versions of the first version of Cha-La Head-Cha-La. When I say "versions of the first version" I mean the one without nappa or vegeta, which seemed to have minor changes during the first episodes. I remember that on that website they put a video with four different versions side to side from first fuji tv broadcasts where you can see very minor differences.
I wanted to read and see that again... but there is no way to found that website, I only find comparisons of the different versions that has major changes.
Be careful to not post in those threads if they are too old though. Necroposting is against the rules.

You've just made a new best friend.

"Well, the chapter was good, the story was good and so were the fights. But a new transformation, in Dragon Ball? And one that's ugly? This is where we draw the line!!! Jump the Shark moment!!"
This forum is so over-dramatic that it's not even funny.

If the last anwser was in 2017, would it be necroposting??
By te way, key17, I am very interested in seeing those comparison videos and pictures again, it seems youtube removed the videos and the images were not available anymore, that is the reason why I could't find them. It would be possible to share them in some way?
Sorry for asking so many things! I just find that topic pretty interesteing
