Because sub elitism and dub elitism are equally toxic and harmful to the anime community, but the former often gets a free pass here because said fans are fans of the original version of the anime. Neither is ideal though, I hate seeing some dub fans say "I can't stand Goku sounding like a gran...

In fact I don't think we should deem anyone unworthy of respect whatsoever He didn't say "they like a heavily altered version of the show so they don't deserve respect" though. The argument is that those fans are simply fans of Funimation's version of the show. If they don't like the sour...

I don't see why it wouldn't be, Goku being a bratty baby when Gohan was first taking care of him hasn't been retconned yet. The only significant change is that Goku being slightly older when he was sent to Earth, being sent with his saiyan armour, and for some reason Bardock had different plans than...

Jesus dude, calm down. Is this a particularly sore point for you or something? No, I just have a disdain for sub elitism or snobbery of any sort (I don't talk to people about music as much as I used to for example, because frankly too many people are assholes over others liking what they like). I a...

In any case I would strongly advise against telling anyone they are "not a Dragon Ball fan", its petty, juvenile, schoolyard bullying tactics that I think this forum should rise above. Are fans of Power Ranger "Super Sentai fans"? Are fans of Cardcaptors "Card Captor Sakura...

The bigger question being asked, which is obviously more debatable is - can a Dragon Ball fan be a hardcore fan if their preference and default version of the show is their dub? To that end I would still say yes. Thought experiment, though: If Funimation or whoever had renamed the dub something els...

On a bad animation day, sure, but obviously the same can be said for Dragon Ball Z. Yuya Takahashi was a solid all round, including the post production stuff. I'd say my only motivation for revisiting the Tournament of Power was his magnificent work. Look at the lighting effects here: https://i.imgu...

I don't think TOEI has any prejudice against Kai, not internationally at any rate. They've probably realized some territories would prefer to have Z, whereas others will want Kai, and TOEI are probably more than happy they're able to offer both options. I believe that one of the reasons why some br...

I think we all know the Barry Watson pronunciation of Saiyan is never going to go away. As much as the unreleased Ocean Kai dub is an attempt to faithfully represent the original Japanese version we know from the recent Anime Time Machine livestreams Karl Willems was adamant the "say-an" ...

You mentioned that this even affects the "hardcore fandom"--can a dub fan not be a hardcore fan? Is there some kind of language standard for when you're considered a "hardcore" fan versus a casual fan? I think someone who collects video releases, manga, and video games of the se...

If I recall correctly, our fellow German Kanzenshueer Timo had mentioned that when both RTL II and Andy Knote from ToyCo (a German music company known for recording German version of anime songs) were shown the Arianne opening, they didn't like it and they were offered to use the original Chala Hea...

So with the recent confirmation that when Dragon Ball Super comes to Denmark this autumn it will be indeed getting a Danish dub I thought it would be fun to look back at the Danish dub of Dragon Ball Z, which I must say is the most unique of all the show's European dubs. Why is it unique? Rock the D...

Fantastic news, there hasn't been a Danish dub of anything since Dragon Ball Z's 2002-2005 run on DR1.

Hopefully as many fans as possible can support this so this Danish dub of Super can be completed and more Scandinavian dubs can come in the future.

If it were an affair, whatever, personal matters between two consenting adults. Nah, that would still be bad because his wife wouldn't consent to that. Though the abuse obviously does nothing but dig his hole much deeper than it would already be. Infidelity is also an abhorrent act of disrespect. O...

Forced woman he had affair with to do abortion...may i remind he is also married? https://myanimelist.net/people/6240/Satomi_Majima This is just... sickening and outright cruelty by any stretch of the imagination. As men we can never understand what women go through in pregnancy and can only empati...

i loved the King Piccolo and Tenshinhan storylines The King Piccolo arc is incredible, I don't know why not all Dragon Ball Z fans can appreciate it as it may not be as flashy as the Z major arcs but it still has the high stakes tension everyone loves. Even Funimation's half-hearted attempt to appe...

I'm genuinely amazed Super is still getting reruns on there to this day. I mean its been 5 years at this point!! That's almost as long as Z's time on UK TV, which lasted from March 2000 to Summer 2005, AND that had more than twice as many episodes to rerun! Apparently it's because of Pop's partners...

Yeah, infidelity is bad enough but men harming women and forcing abortions on them is disgusting. I'm all for Yamcha getting the recast treatment.

And Cure has made multiple post about Dragon Ball Z airing in Latin American countries recently Not only that, there's also still dubs of Dragon Ball Z being made to this day, like the 2019-2021 Kurdish dub, which aired on 4Anime in Iraq. Also keep an eye on Anibox in South Korea, they've been airi...
