It's nice too see the old Z movies being streamed here. It's a shame it's sub only, but it's a step in the right direction.
Well in the UK it will just be
Resurrection F and
Broly, which are coming in July. Its nothing new because they were on Netflix before, but hopefully the rest of the movies will come. Still good for people that don't own the movies and missed them on Sky Cinema and Netflix.

I wonder which master they'll use. The double features seem most likely, although they have an issue with the Japanese audio quality sounding dreadful for several of the later movies. I rewatched the movies in Japanese last year, and ended up switching to the old singles, because the audio on the double features was muffled to the point of being unlistenable.
I would be shocked if it was anything other than the Double Features. India has started to use the TOEI remasters for some airings, and I think France and select European countries have released them, but Crunchyroll haven't shown any interest yet.
I believe the
Wrath of the Dragon DVD single has a great mono track. Would need to check my Double Features again as I don't recall having any major issues, although I'm not an audio expert.

It would be nice to see the DB/Z/GT/Kai series make an appearance on Crunchyroll at some point.
It's a weird situation with them not being able to use dubs on there. They merged with the company that produced said dubs. I've been wanting to continue One Piece as I gave up collecting the boxsets, but that's also sub only on Crunchyroll.
I say they will come eventually.
Definitely weird, but it goes to show physical media will always have a place as we've seen Disney+ remove some content recently, meaning content is never safe, even if the streamer in question has the rights. I don't blame you with One Piece, I only have the first 2 collections and all the movies released here (don't have
Red yet but plan to get it) but will need to figure out how I'll store them all when I get around to collecting more of the boxsets.

I'm just gonna stick with the Dragon Box versions of the original movies.
The Dragon Box movies are great from what I've seen yes. Sad they never got localised.
