Very interesting to see.

However, the key difference between the two is that Funimation cropped the footage in the exact same framework all the time, whereas DragonBall Kai (in some parts) actually zooms in on certain images to show (what I would presume) the more important details of the animation. In other words, it appears that DragonBall Kai is simply not just going to crop their footage, but actually modify it by focusing the image on the parts they feel are most important. The last comparison of images proves this.
