Edit: argh! major laggggg! Keyhole TV kept bugging out cuz of the ammount of viewers!

It was mostly the same, but had an interesting lead-in. That may have been on the original Japanese, too, but I've only seen the English. I think it cut out a little bit of Gohan's trip down the river, which was nice.

Wow, finally, first time I saw a positive statement about that movie on this site.

Keyhole Tv. That is where I wanted to watch it. But errr I missed it.

SceptileMaster 04-06-2009 06:59 PM

Just watched it. Nearly the same. A little dissapointed. Even most of the animation was taken straight from the old series.

OMG!! I wish I'd known about this about a week earlier!! I would've watched Sasuke 22!! ><

SSJup81 04-08-2009 10:21 PM

What day/time does Dragon Ball Kai come on so that I may watch it.

Kayci 04-08-2009 11:07 PM

ugh.
just end it already
Dragonball went on too long, in my opinion

It's the 20th anniversary. Dragon Ball is still popular in Japan. Why wouldn't Toei milk it? It's like how Avex milks everything its most popular artists/groups put out. Besides, it's good that this series is going to be closer to the manga as opposed to what the original DBZ was. No 20 episodes just for one character to power up and another 10 to end the battle.

Kayci 04-08-2009 11:50 PM

maybe I wouldn't be so against it if it wasn't for those episodes.
But now, I just can't bear it, whether it's more on track or not.
I'm sorry.
I just can't. Dx

So I guess that's 8:00 pm EST Saturday on Fuji TV.

SHAD0W 04-12-2009 06:49 PM

I think its on youtube now guys? No subs tho.

I think it was pretty good, feels like 1997 (when Z started in UK) all over again!
Its really exciting!

Has anyone played Dragonball Evolution: The Game on PSP? Its so hillariously bad!!!! All I did was smash Square button and I won every match with a A ranking!!! The storyline and fake added characters though.. oh dear.

Calling Goku "Geeko" and having fart jokes.. the in story battle scenes are to die for..

Not surprised.

Aota 04-12-2009 07:33 PM

What about how Goku ALWAYS died, and had to be revived again?

Couldn't they have... I dunno, wished that he never died again? >>

Anyway, how was the first episode? Like, what was REALLY unique about it?

SHAD0W 04-12-2009 07:47 PM





Do I really gotta do EVERYTHING myself..?

Aniki 04-12-2009 07:59 PM

Keep spoon feeding us please!

Aota 04-12-2009 08:15 PM

Thank you, Shadow.

hahaha. Do you need me to post ep2 aswell?

Aota 04-12-2009 10:37 PM

Yes pah-leeze. *pouts*

alanX 04-12-2009 10:37 PM

I managed to catch episode two live. But only about half way through =/
And I totally missed ep1.

Anyone care to inlighten me on what's going on so far?

SHAD0W 04-12-2009 10:50 PM

Go back a page Alan..

Episode 02




And, you're welcome. In the future, copy and paste ドラゴンボール改XX話 into youtube, just replace XX with the episode number. So next weeks will be ドラゴンボール改03話

話(わ) is the counter for TV shows or Episodes :)

Aota 04-13-2009 12:17 AM

Isn't it essentially the same as the old DBZ?

It is DBZ. The makers didn't want to remaster all the DBZ episodes so they made the short version and called it DB Kai. If you watched all the episodes of DBZ, you basically won't find nothing new in BD Kai. It's like watching Evangelion: 1.0 You Are (Not) Alone after seeing the original episodes of Neon Genesis Evangelion.

Aota 04-13-2009 01:28 AM

Gotcha. Okay.

Think they'll go as far as the Buu saga, just skipping minor details here and there?

SHAD0W 04-13-2009 01:41 AM

did the manga get to Buu before they released the Anime?

Aota 04-13-2009 01:50 AM

I never paid attention to the manga myself, so I can't answer that question.

Sorry.

SHAD0W 04-13-2009 10:30 AM

Me either. Was bought the one where Goku goes SSJ vs Frieza (american copy) as a present but I can't say I've read it cover to cover..


DBkai is really refreshing though, IMO.

I'm pretty sure it probably did. Manga got to Buu Saga in April of 1994 with Volume 37 I think. The anime got to that the same year, just a little later (summer?). I just know that the gap between them wasn't big at all.

SHAD0W 04-13-2009 09:51 PM

1994.. that makes me feel old.. I kinda feel saddend that the main show isn't all polished and beautiful like the intro..

Jef 04-14-2009 08:53 PM

I love DB kai.

The voice actors did a great job re dubbing the Anime. The picture quality is a lot better and even the sound is totally renewed :D . I,ve compared the first 2 Kai episode's with the first 3 DBZ Remastered episodes (With jap audio) and whooow the improvements are amazing

How is it possible that the American producers messed op the colors, They re-re-re released it for the American market (Again) and tell it is 1080P. But when placing it next to kai ! They must shame them self, even in 480P Kai looks better.


I think that I will delete the whole remastered serie (Is that word English) and stuck with Kai for the couple 2 years.

SHAD0W 04-14-2009 09:29 PM

Delete? You downloaded it? Psssh!

alanX 04-14-2009 09:55 PM

Okay so I just watched the Dragonball movie....and it was decent. I wish the characters would have looked a little more like they do in the anime.

Like...this is real master roshi: http://images.myfavoritegames.com/ga...roshipeace.jpg
This is the movie roshi: http://screenrant.com/wp-content/upl...ster-roshi.jpg

But it had the absolute hottest girl I've ever seen playing ChiChi, Jamie Chung. I couldn't concentrate on the movie too well. Let's just say I didn't have a lot of blood in my brain at the time lol jk

SHAD0W 04-14-2009 10:11 PM

I know girls IRL that are hotter than ChiChi, MUCH hotter!

I'm paying my friends NOT to go see the film, I really don't wanna see it being supported in any way, shape or form. I don't want my beloved DB ruining...

Just needs a bit of this and its sorted!!

minimin 04-20-2009 07:40 AM

lmao, I never laughed so hard at anything. That was f cking hilarious.^^


and yeah I haven't watched but I hope the new series is better then what the movie looked like..

Excessum 04-23-2009 11:26 AM

I am a bit disappointed actually. I was hoping they would digitally remaster it, as they did with DBGT several years after it was originally released. Then the series would look more like it's intro movie.
Also a question I am interested in: will there be a pro-dubbed version in the US for these series too? They could, in theory, take the old DBZ dubs and fit it for the KAI. Though it seems that this will be up for the fans to do.
