Who cares about Goku doing a kamehame on the sun? Seeing Namek awesomeness earlier more than makes up for it.

Anyways, finally watched episodes 17 and 18, and I gotta agree with those who said the song that played during the recovery of the bodies was pretty unfitting. Made me wtf a bit.

Other than that, it was all great, even if they were slower episodes by nature. But they definitely did their job of getting me pumped up for Namek. Just seeing Vegeta, Cui, Dodoria, Zarbon and Frieza in the preview was awesome, can't wait for 19 (subbed I mean).

What you're talking about here is the Dragon Ball Z manga, whereas what we wanted to know is if the Dragon Ball Kai (not Z) anime (not manga) was licensed.

Anyway, as far as I know the Dragon Ball Kai anime series is not licensed. I suppose the admin folks here put this thread in this board because DBZ is licensed, and since a lot of footage is the same... It still doesn't make sense though.

This is going to be great!, they doing every episode? this was my very first anime to watch and it's still my favorite definitely going to buy it

To the people who still complain about filler omissions, get over it. This is Dragon Ball Kai; it is a "Toriyama's Cut" adaptation; it is meant to follow the manga as closely as possible. If you want to watch the filler material, there is always the original Z anime to watch. Nuff said.

Can't talk bout subs ....... from subway?!!

ultramojones · 2009-08-21, 16:28

Relax fellas, I just asked if it was filler

justavisitor · 2009-08-21, 16:33

for me there are two types of fillers in DBZ..that kamehame on the sun can be filtered out, but those fillers that make the fight longer and more complete

Spoiler for spoiler for example:

should be kept, just my opinion

Alchemist007 · 2009-08-23, 00:48

Wow on namek and freiza intro already. And Vegeta back so soon heh.

Oh to anyone interested and as unknowing as I was; DB and DBZ manga are being rereleased by Viz in a 'VIZBIG' edition, basically 3 volumes in one. They're still releasing it and it won't even be done by 2010 it seems, but the DB series is done and they're on 4 of DBZ...well you can see it all and the dates as well here: http://www.viz.com/products/products...d=1&brand_id=4
I myself will probably pick them up whenever I can, probably when they're all done so I can storm through them.

Man, I can't wait for the subbing of the next episode, this is the beginning of one of, if not, the best arc in the series.

I've seen episode 20. I don't think I will ever get tired of hearing Ryusei Nakao as Freeza. They have changed Zarbon's seiyuu (and Dodoria's) but I'm not complaining the new seiyuu fits perfectly with the character.

The preview looks kind of worrying though.

Spoiler for episode 21:

Good Lord!

Blackbeard D. Kuma · 2009-08-24, 19:08

^ That's going to make the Broly fanboys a lot more worse. They keep trying to make Broly this omnipotent god that can compete with the top tiers in the DBZ universe (in the games that is, like in this case). Seriously, Broly is such an overrated and shallow character with no personality whatsoever. He's one of the crappiest villains I've ever seen.

I myself was hoping for a new DB movie but, like Blackbeard D. Kuma, I too think Broly is highly overrated

What, no more Sho Hayami as Zarbon? I'm disappointed.

Who's his new seiyuu?

You got to it before i could.

But yeah, such an overrated character. There's a few decent enemies from the movies who deserve to be loved as much as Brolly.

I find it intriguing and am very curious to see how the new generation of seiyuus can work with the old generation.

Specifically, will Aya Hirano dominate the headlines with her voice?

Spoiler for episode 21: It seems the entire focus of the episode will be on Freeza's goons defeating the Namekians. It seems rather filler intensive, I hope not though. __________________ MyAnimeList
