Yup. They're both good though.
Simple & Clean's PlanitB remix might be the best of all three though.

Franky a lot of KH doesn't make sense to me after playing most of the games

I thought it was going to be silly when I first heard about it. A game where you fight with a key and meet Mickey Mouse, Donald Duck, Goofy and other characters from Disney films?
Sounds weird.
Then I played it and loved the hell out of it.
KH was the game to convince me to get a PS2 (I originally borrowed my best friend's PS2 while he borrowed my Dreamcast) & made me realize all the stuff I was missing on Sony consoles, despite playing a PS1 via baby sitter when I was even younger.
Now I just wish I was able to convince myself to replay through the HD versions.

I still go back to this DDD trailer which uses it: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ocPs3aSaCcI
So hype (plus it starts with Sanctuary too!) One of the best trailers ever (minus the random part with gameplay footage in the middle.)
(For the record, I've only played Chain of Memories GBA and DDD, but intend to eventually play the whole series... somehow.)
*starts Konosuba S2* Oh god, this is off to an even better start.
Also, when were people complaining that the 2nd season had "bad" animation? If anything, it allows it to be more expressive & adds to the humor when characters give off funny facial reactions because it isn't trying to constantly stay on-model & be style over substance like SAO.

So I've been reading through the Dragon Ball manga and Viz's translation is...really fucking bad?
For the first two chapters Bulma and Goku are both written with some kind of Southern-ish accent that gets gradually toned down over time, and even then the characters still use some really odd phrases while the phonetic rendering of how they're speaking is really overdone? Like, every character seems on the knife's edge of using the phrase "aw shucks" every few sentences.
Bulma has used the phrase "take a gander" and everyone insists on using the word "undies" over and over again.
Some other stuff:
Bulma: *snort* What a goon! Prob'ly thinks wearing that phony tail makes him look like one happenin' dude!
Goku: Ha! Dummy! Stupid! Y'think YOU can hurt me?! With little owchies like that?! HAH!

I was just reminded of one of my favorite shows from childhood.
Zoids: Chaotic Century/Guardian Force was one of the best action anime on Cartoon Network. Even when they bumped it to 6am in the morning, it was still worth getting up to see. It was a multilayered story that is simple enough on the outside, but wove in themes of war, politics, betrayal paired with cool battle scenes and strong, memorable characters.
More people should give it a shot (and give a hard pass to the rest of the Zoids shows.)
It's a shame that it's so underappreciated, and that the rest of the Zoids shows were so trash. It could have been a more kid-oriented version of Gundam for a new generation IMO.

I mean, it's either that or this:
Don't have many great options when it comes to Dragon Ball translations.
What's the age rating on the version you're reading? My only guess is maybe they tried to tone the series down in order to make it more kid friendly/appeal to a bigger demographic, as I recall the anime version got some stuff censored, though it was mainly Goku's nudity & a few instances with Bulma.
If it's a T or Older Teen rating, though, then I've got no idea & that just seems silly they'd resort to such silly words.

Man you really are my bro, bro.
Basically Viz before mid 2000's did awful jobs on most of their US Manga releases. So if you got popular before then, too bad.
I think early One Piece has a certain charm though.
Also I'll overlook any major problems with dragonball because of how strong the line art is. Say what you will about Toriyama but the man is a master of drawing in black and white. Everything looks so sharp and distinct. The black jumps off of the page (or kindle!)

I remember watching Zoids once and awhile.
I remember it being alright. Remember the seasons that focused on actual war being surprisingly violent for a kid's show.

I really liked that show and would get up to watch it. It was a better Gundam show than most (if not all) Gundam shows.
Yeah, I thought it was some kinda hoax.
He does. He voiced the main Zoid of the main character.
That one, ironically enough, is filled with Inuyasha VA's instead. Like...all of them.

I remember really like both Zoids series growing up. I wonder if they still hold up?
Chaotic Century/Guardian Force is still pretty decent if I remember right. I watched it a few years back, might do another rewatch soon...

yeah the art is GREAT but man it's stuff like this that makes me want to not buy manga apart from like the usual storage considerations
it's T and they've got Goku's baby dick on like the ninth page so some translator decided he liked his own writing a little too much or something. also:

I remember there was one episode of Zoids, where this captured soldier was brought into an enemy base, and for some reason, he was brought to the command center of the base.A battle breaks out outside, and people kind of ignore the captured soldier. Said captured soldier then proceeds to run over and hit a giant self-destruct button, blowing up the entire base.
It was at that moment that child me realized self-destruct buttons don't make any sense.

Who was Raven? He had the best VA IMO.
Speaking of, Raven was a much better Sasuke than Sasuke.

The Birth of the Genobreaker
Still hype after all these years. Plus that one episode that shows it just RECKING the entire crew after all their meticulous plans was soooooo good.
"He can fire a charged particle beam from the air?!?"
If it isn't obvious, the Genobreaker is my favorite Zoid and possibly my favorite "mecha" design ever.

I did legitimately miss you when you left all those years ago.
I'd make a DRRR joke and no one would get it.
Goten in GT.
Canadian dub though. Which you've probably never heard.
One day I'll watch all of Canadian Dragon Ball.

So just throwing this out there for people who like Alan Wake.
If you like Alan Wake, but don't own it, and got a PC that can run it, buy it this weekend. Apparently because music licenses are expiring, Alan Wake will be removed from digital stores on the 15th. The good news it'll be getting a heavy discount on Steam. (90% off.)

90% off? That's like $6!
Seriously, the game is worth it at triple that.

Ah, so much nostalgia I have for this! I loved this when I was kid and mainly watched it when it was on Toonami.
Regarding Attack on Titan: They actually didn't cut anything. iirc they moved some scenes around, and the scene that you guys were talking about that was "cut" is actually part of the next episode.
He was about to be killed by Jack so I doubt he had much time to think about when to send him.
