wat? The kid buu fight had the best animation of the entire series (barring maybe a couple episodes, where they switched to the shitty animation team; seems like they alternated between the good team and the shitty team every other episode during the buu saga).
Yeah it's awesome I meant reanimated it for the better.
There were awful animated Kid Buu fights but those were fillers.

I'm a huge Kid Buu fan. I just want to relive the moment in pure awesomeness.

The Buu saga sucked...

but man was Kid Buu a sick mofo!! =D
 
I don't think that's what it'll look like.

More like what it could have look liked.

Watching Raw nope it's just remastered but I can't tell difference since bad quality video.
 
just watched the ep. and holy shit I loved every minute.

The animation doesn't bother me, and I loved the re-edit. Both songs are fantastic.

The ED in particular would lead up really well to the epic new One Piece OP.

I hate them only cause I want a real remake.



The melody itself gives me a We Were Angels vibe, but that's just me.

They should have just done a real remake :lol

They are saving that ace for the 50th anniversary.

In other news, those videos got my innards all tingly. I guess Cupcake Nia shall be replaced for something manlier.
 
So, the next three episodes should follow hte original show's pacing pretty closely, actually.

The beginning of DBZ was relatively free of filler, to be honest.
And then we got to see 10 episodes of gohan having adventures


I get the feeling nappa and vegeta will arrive somewhere in ep 8-10.
 
Man, I've been looking for DBZ manga all over the web and so far I've come up with zero sites that have it. Any ideas guys ?

Amazon.com. Don't people understand that this stuff can be bought and sold. It's like Gaming GAF asking for ISO of commercials games.
 
Hmmm, seeing the 720p rip, i'm kind of disappointed by it's sharpness (or lack of !).

I guess the BRD release of this won't be really necessary. But shouldn't it be more sharp if they used old cellos on original backgrounds ? It just looks like an old video transfer. There is even some grain in the beginning.

wait, because I have the memory span of a peanut, was FUNimation bringing this show over along with the new FMA too?

I don't think anything has been announced, but I can't imagine they won't bring it over.
 
Don't really like the new songs. Not bad but they aren't particularly great. Doesn't have the camp feel of the original DBZ songs but doesn't have the sort of mainstream/audio appeal of the DBGT ones. Beh.
 
Brings back so many memories here are some observations though...

- in some scenes you can see the extended parts
- new songs suck, i was expecting CHA LA CHA LA LA!!!
- picolo is funny as ever with his shocked and sweating and shaking expressions:lol :lol :lol :lol :lol :lol :lol
- kirllin owned count 1 roshi didnt even try to catch him roshi just got out of the way:lol :lol :lol :lol :lol :lol
- goku sounds the same!!
 
Hated the OP. DOKKAN DOKKAN PARADICE, ugh. And somehow it sounded like Dan dan kokoro hikareteku, only bad. ED was more acceptable.

And the quality difference was really jarring >.<
 
The transition from the OP to the actual episode is painful, makes me want a proper remake. But since that is not to be, I'm happy that they're doing what they're doing. So far so good.

Also, the OP/ED songs are pretty lame.

you watch anime and dont know what a seiyuu is??? get the fuck out!!!
Knowing what seiyuu means is a prerequisite for watching anime? You're such an aho.


*TN: Aho means idiot.

Wait, someone who watches subbed anime is supposed to know what that word means... That makes perfect sense.

I never liked the voice or music of the American dub. But all my friends liked it. When they watched my tapes from Japan they'd always laugh at Goku's voice but it was what I was used to.

But yeah, that was a very good episode.

I really can't stand the Japanese voices. I don't know if it's the same in other anime since DBZ is the only one I like, but their voices can sound extremely high pitched (especially when they yell and there's a lot of yelling.

It's a girl doing the voice of Goku. That's why. She started out doing Son Goku's voice from when he was a kid and stuck with it. She's quite old now though. She's in her mid 70s, believe it or not.

But I guess if you didn't grow up with it, it's hard to switch over.

Keep watching Kai though. I think most fans will grow to like Masako Nozawa's voice over time.
 
I can't even fathom why they thought it would be a good idea to re-do everything EXCEPT the original animation.

I mean, the only reason I can't sit down with my wife to watch it is because she says the animation fucking sucks. Doesn't really compute to go through all that effort and not redraw it, in my mind, although I'll acknowledge that would be by far the hardest part to do.
