In July 2009 at their industry panel at the Otakon anime convention in Baltimore, FUNimation announced their licensing and forthcoming release of the “Dragon Box” sets based on the genuinely-remastered release of the same name from Japan several years prior. The release would begin in November 2009 and span across seven sets. Clearly aimed at “hardcore” fans (and specifically those of the original Japanese version of the show), the packaging would closely mirror the Japanese packaging, would include a hardcover book with each box, and even default to the original Japanese language track. This set would be the fourth official release of some earlier episodes of the Dragon Ball Z TV series in North America, would be the second “consistent” release of the entire series, and for many fans, was set to be the definitive release, finally coming to them a full fifteen years after FUNimation first acquired the license to the franchise.
