Dragon Ball / Kintama... I mean Gintama

Not a particularly worthwhile post, but I thought it might bring a smile to a few of your faces who haven't seen some of these things yet. As someone who loves both Gintama & Dragon Ball, I absolutely adore when Gintoki and friends have some fun with our favorite series, and with the new Gintama...

Re: Listing for "Ocean Dub"-specific DBZ: "Rock the Dragon"

Insanely retarded? No excuse? I'm sorry but I think you and a few others are severely missing the point of this release. This isn't about presenting what some feel is the most accurate dub of DBZ in the states. This set is a means to relive the broadcast of the show here in the US, a fun opportunity...

Re: Akira Toriyama is going to write a new (non-DB) series

Like everyone else, I figured it would already be mapped out to be a short series, and i'm beyond happy it's going to be longer than a one-shot. But god help me if there wasn't that small, non-rationally thinking, and inherently cruel side of me that was mind-shouting: Just do it Toriyama. Go agains...

Re: Listing for "Ocean Dub"-specific DBZ: "Rock the Dragon"

As someone who owns those pioneer DVD's of the films (and found them to be easy to find and inexpensive, picked 'em up just this year actually), this makes the release even more enticing for me; plus, I find it makes more sense for what this release is -- the original broadcast, not the original bro...

Re: Characters who deserved more...

I wish Lunch didn't fall off the face of the earth when Z rolled around. I know realistically she has little to no impact on the story but it would've been nice to see her every now and then (and not just in anime filler). I agree, her completely disappearing from the manga after being with the gan...

Ginyu has pronounced cheek bones as opposed to Goku's lack thereof.

Re: Episode #0336 (16 June 2013)

I may have missed it but I'm surprised yall left Goku's surrogate father, Grandpa Gohan out of the discussion. Goku's main character traits might be best explained by that nasty bump on the head, but I like to think the man had some influence on our simpleminded main protagonist. Plus, more saiyan p...

This is such a fun release. (No pun intended) Really taking me back and I'm getting psyched to watch the show again in all it's edited glory.

Re: VIZ 3-in-1 Editions Coming Summer 2013

About the lying though, surely if they've advertised a product as one thing and sold it as another, there's something that can be done to force them to rectify it? There must now be some obligation for Viz to provide the product that they described, if people are vocal enough about it? Well, since ...

Re: Official On-Going DBZ 2013 Movie Thread: "Battle of Gods

Just wanting some clarification here: while both Birus and Beers seem to be fair game for that character's name, does Uis still make any sense considering his name pun source was always whiskey and not virus based?

Re: Funimation comments on Battle of Gods' status

Look i'm not into the technical terms you guys use. All I know is I have one little black box that if I put DVDs or Blue Rays in it, it will play either of them just fine. I call it my DVD player because it plays DVDs. Mhmm, well, regardless of what you call it, I felt the need to correct you on th...

Re: Funimation comments on Battle of Gods' status

Blu Ray's only play in blu ray players. If your blu ray is playing in your DVD player, then surprise! You own a Blu ray player. And yes, both Japan and the US produce and play region A blu ray.

I always had a hunch the conservative right was to blame for Dragon Ball Evolution. I'm also interested in this pizza time stance anime distribution has taken. Less than 2 years or it's free huh? :wave: Slight ribbing aside, sooner the better for me. But I feel I can wait... until the Japanese BD co...

I'm still hoping that one guy (or girl, I'm totally down with equal rights) robs that bank and gives me some of the money. This way I reap the benefits and still stay morally sound.
