Mpache Posted August 26, 2020 Posted August 26, 2020 Just now, Spike said: nah, snail pace isn't my shit, besides the art was retouched and voice acting is better because they've been doing the same character for twenty years. At least in English The pace in the original DBZ was perfect. I'm not talking about how it took 20 episodes for Namek to explode in 5 minutes mind you, just how smoothly the dialogue went with the show itself. DBZ Kai they transition to different scenes too fast and awkwardly. Don't really care about the art as the original wasn't the worst in that regard I had ever seen, and yeah the voice acting and dialogue in Kai pisses over the original. They added a lot of random shit in the first Funi dub as well as made a lot of mistakes (such as the over 9000 scene which is actually supposed to be 8000). This is why I love watching the original series in Spanish, because they copied the Japanese dialogue word for word.
Devil-Dick Willie Posted August 26, 2020 Posted August 26, 2020 Not gonna lie I do usually skip the filler between Raditz dying and vegeta arriving, and the trip to namek. The rest is sweet tho
Spike Posted August 26, 2020 Posted August 26, 2020 better soundtrack as well in kai, none of that weird psuedo-techno midi stuff, though were some great songs, I just like that orchestral ost more. i can’t stand the snail pace but that is because i’d buy the vhs tapes with three or four episodes and nothing would happen, or i’d finally get to watch it in the morning while on holidays and nothing would happen again

The rest is sweet tho Yeah that was the worst part of Z. Some of the filler though I do actually like. The Ginyu force arriving to King Kai's planet to fight Yamcha, Tien and Chiatzou, or the tournament with Pikkon was cool. As you said though that stuff with the bug planet and whatnot was awful.

Devil-Dick Willie Posted August 28, 2020 Posted August 28, 2020 I have to agree with Mpache here. Holy fucking shit. Perfect Cells theme too
Cicero Posted August 28, 2020 Posted August 28, 2020 Love the android-cell saga. And the best scene in the entire series
Mpache Posted August 28, 2020 Posted August 28, 2020 My favourites were Super Buu's, Perfect Cell's, Vegeta's (both), Goku Super Saiyan's, and the Ginyu Force's themes.
Subscriber Mel81x+ Posted September 3, 2020 Subscriber Posted September 3, 2020 Started watching Dorohedoro this week and its weirdly intriguing. Out on Netflix right now. https://www.imdb.com/title/tt11147852/
ASF Posted December 11, 2020 Author Posted December 11, 2020 Do we need to have the lefty agenda pushed down our throats, in every TV show and movie? Is it wrong to try to pick up girls in a dungeon? Season III was completely ruined because of this.
Subscriber Mel81x+ Posted January 9, 2021 Subscriber Posted January 9, 2021 Finished watching this and came away pleasantly surprised.
Subscriber Mel81x+ Posted January 9, 2021 Subscriber Posted January 9, 2021 Also, for @DeadLinesman I know you like a good fight anime series and I don't know if you've already seen this. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hajime_no_Ippo

nudge Posted January 31, 2021 Posted January 31, 2021 Never been into anime, but was recommended Planetes recently and... whoa. So so good.
nudge Posted July 27, 2021 Posted July 27, 2021 Recently started watching this. So good... Brilliant storytelling and a lot of depth.

londonerlilie Posted July 29, 2021 Posted July 29, 2021 I've been getting into Tokyo Revengers, the story of a 26 year old dude wanting to go back in time really resonated with me
Rick Posted April 3, 2022 Posted April 3, 2022 Ranking of kings is excellent. Finding it difficult to watch Demon Slayer at the moment, it’s becoming extremely cringe. Zenitsu is just a fucking knob of the highest order.
Subscriber Mel81x+ Posted September 27, 2022 Subscriber Posted September 27, 2022 The Nier Automata Anime Just Got A Trailer And Release Details (kotaku.com) Nier is getting a TV Anime series and it's going to be good.
ASF Posted December 4, 2022 Author Posted December 4, 2022 Decided to watch Dragon Ball, Z and GT fully this year. I enjoyed the first two. But both could have been cut down by some 20-40 episodes. GT was terrible. Pan was annoying and I almost gave up watching it because of her. Overall, I'd say it is overrated.
