I'm not personally a fan of digital releases, but for anyone that is I'm glad this option exists.
Do you have any info about international non-English broadcasts about the Dragon Ball anime or manga translations/editions? Please message me. Researching for a future book with Dragon Ball scholar Derek Padula :thumbup:

I’m inclined to agree and I’m not a fan of this push by Toei/Crunchyroll to make this franchise digital only but I will say

1. It looks like the entire first Kai series is available for $29 which is at least a better deal than what most of the home video release have been going for. And much better than Fandango digitally selling DBZ with the American score for $22 bucks a season i.e basically the same price or more as the orange bricks and a much worse deal than the Walmart 3:1 Blu Ray release. So at least it’s a not a giant rip off.


2. Kai’s original target audience is gen z and they seem much less loyal to physical media releases as streaming took over when most of them were in middle school and high school anyways.
