There's no need to hide spoilers in this thread. Everyone has seen Dragon Ball Z so many times by now, and so there are really no surprises for us viewers.
In terms of pacing, every episode of DB Kai from now on is going to have to encompass 3 chapters if they really want to condense the series down to 100 episodes. Even then, with a 3 chapter per episode pace, the series will go a little over 100 episodes (approximately 108 episodes).

Guess it's best to ask a mod what is best.

To be honest, very few people here discuss the content (story) of the series. A lot of the posts are just regarding how people felt about the episode and that's it. There's very little productive discussion taking place here.

True. The main topic of conversation here will be on changes made, our favorite scenes and our thoughts on upcoming battles and what not, though still i think we should keep some of the more heavy spoiler material (like death scenes) in spoiler tags. It's not harming anyone.

For Dragon Ball, it's kinda hard to say.
Because it's old and very familiar amongst the fans, it's almost like Star Wars. It's comparabale to whether or not to consider "Luke, I am your father" "Noooo!!" to be a spoiler worth tagging or not.

That sorta got me wondering what newcomers think of Kai so far. I mean, we all see to be having fun with it, but I'm curious if it's because this truly is an enjoyable show or if we're all just running on nostalgia fumes right now. Ah, to be able to watch the show with fresh eyes again. What an experience that'd be.

I don't think it'd look that foreign to them. After all, Toriyama's art has been prevalent in anime for quite a while now. Even if somebody has never seen DB/Z/GT before, I'm sure they'd at least seen images of the characters at least. Also, any self-respecting gamer would recognize the style right away, what with all the Chrono Triggers and Dragon Quests around.

I have a few friends that never watched DB and I urged them to check it out, but just as I though, they were horrified by the old animation, although I don't know why it is so horrible about it. In any case, I too would like to hear some comments from people that never watched Dragon Ball and are picking it now, but I know many will be negative because people are more costumed to Bleach or Naruto.
Can't wait EP3, even though I know what is gonna happen, I just feel like watching it all over again =)

Still DBZ had some of the most amazing plot twists and death scenes that impacted me pretty well back in the days and I miss that. I'm reliving my childhood here I get a nostalgic feeling watching Kai now and I'm glad that they decided to skip the unnecessary fillers and get right into the main plot. Good times, good times.
