Very nice, but it'd be utterly AWESOME if they completely redid everything and the WHOLE SERIES looked like the OP and ED. (i.e. like 'Dragon Ball: Yo! The Return of Son Goku and Friends!!', which btw, felt like epic fail to me, plotwise that is.)
Guess that's a lil too much to ask? |

I'd say that's just wrong. Keeping the original designs from the beginning is what makes this so much fun for we who watched this when it first aired all the more fun. Updated the character designs would 100% destroy this for me.

i seriously hope they're not going show all the old footage with slightly more detailed scenes and less spamming beams. of course it brings back old memories of watching DBZ, but i feel like i'm watching a repeat of it 13 years ago.

I know people are saying that it's great that they will cut out the fillers, but I say, in DBZ, few were rather good. I actually loved Garlick Jr. Saga, and the only filler where Yamcha, Tenshinhan and Chauzu really kick ass on King Kai's planet will not happen, which is kinda sad

Great new op & ed, and the pacing is still ok, we'll see how much is changed when the first fight starts!
I think this is mainly to promote the second dragon ball ds rpg game anyway, so there wasn't much hope for a remake, especially with how the economy goes over there...

In the Garlic Jr. Saga, characters like Yamcha, Roshi, Chi Chi, and Bulma, were able to give Piccolo a hard time. What kind of a silly joke is that? This is Piccolo we're talking about here; someone who was able to fight on equal terms with Second Form Frieza and got even stronger after that by getting healed by Dende. The aforementioned four characters don't come anywhere close to the level of power from First Form Frieza, so how is it that they were giving Piccolo trouble when he was stronger than Second Form Frieza by that time? The battles with the Ginyu Force on King Kai's planet made no sense either. Perhaps Guldo could've been defeated, since he was by far the weakest member, but as for Recoome, Jeice, and Burter (all of whom have power levels of 40,000), Tien and Yamcha would get slaughtered by them. They would be lucky to even break 10,000, and that's being very generous since they are only humans and they didn't get their potential unlocked by Guru. So yeah, you can see why filler creates so many problems and why it gets hated on. It's a good thing DB Kai is having it removed, so that we can experience it as being as close/true as possible to the manga. If you really like the filler material, the original version is always there to watch.

This brings me back memories. Glad I was able to watch it again. Can't be DBK and FMA: Bro. are already licensed by Funimation. I don't think it will be possible to bring back the original VAs since they all moved on to other things.

As the time quickly flew by the Earth trio managed to complete the tasks that were done by Goku and train even further at Kai's place, and would eventually power up and gain enough strength to take down Ginyu Force. That fact isn't too impossible to imagine.

We already have the original series, it would be boring to make something too similar. Is that even possible? my god |

I keep asking myself should I watch this? The opening makes me feel nostalgic but 100 episodes is still a lot to commit to and it's just a shortened version of something I already saw. Maybe I will just pay attention to this thread and watch episodes with favorite moments again. |

I kind of felt the same way. Maybe its because I was so used to the english voices. Then again watching the ol DBZ every now and again I still like the english over the japanese so I think its just one of those animes that I prefer the english over japanese. Then again as long as a dub is good I'll usually watch it instead of the japanese voices.
