At first I thought that the new background music was okay. I kinda liked the theme that was playing when Piccolo and Radditz first met. However nothing else seemed noteworhty. I was especially dissapointed in the musci they used for the Piccolo/Goku vs. Radditz fight. You can clearly hear that the composer does mostly video games cause the music reminded me of those themes thay play in the backgrounf during a video game match. It also had a midi-kinda feeling to it.
SPeaking of Nappa's new VA , does anybody know who else had their VA's changed? I know of Tenshinhan's so far but noone else. |

Toshio Furukawa, who is the voice actor of Piccolo, has his own personal website. Apparently over there, he listed a few characters that now have new voice actors. Mr. Popo, Bubbles, and Gregory, are some of them at the moment.

that much japanese Anybody who could translate ? Quote:
I'm pretty sure you are among the few people who think that. Most who whatched the dub first find it hard to get used to listening to it in japanese, especially Goku's voice is a major turn off for most. I, luckily, first watched DB years ago in origial jap and have no problem with it I saw 4 versions of DBZ, the japanese, english, german and italian and although each have their pros and cons I think the japanese is by far the best. |

They haven't really cut that much out. Going by the japanese episode guide, two episodes worth of material (plus about 5 minutes of a third episode) has been cut. Considering how slow the original was, this is much nicer.
The thing I'm most looking forward to is Namek. Will they reanimate the part where Dende first appears, so that it follows the manga, or will they let Dodoria keep his one moment? |

Just watch episode 3 and it was really good. Yes the censorship still exists but I've seen the edited US version, but at least Piccolo's blood wasn't green. DBZ was one of the few shows that got me into anime.

Loved episode 3. You could tell which parts were remastered and which weren't but for the most part a lot of it was remastered. I hope we can expect some amazing remastering in the Vegeta and Nappa arc just like in the opening.
Anyways, I think we should trust Mr. Toriyama on this. I know a lot of you would have loved Dragon Ball Kai if every episode was being completely remade in full HD quality but then again, would you think watching all those episodes all over again would be worth it? The original series was fun to watch and especially great when FUNimation released remastered box sets in HD quality. I'm looking forward to this and hope the animation staff can pull together many viewers. Bottom line, I'm down with this. |

Just finished watching episode 3 subbed And I'm all smiles after this. Just like Blackbeard already said, the pacing of this episode was amazing considering in the original it took like 2 episodes for the actual fight to even start It seems like in about 3 or maybe even 4 episodes we'll have the Z fighters fighting the Saibamen (spelling?) Either way, I'm enjoying Kai much more then I originally imagined because there are no pointless stare down episodes anymore. Glad to see this again, I hope everyone else enjoys it as much as I am.

I think he may reach the end of Snakeway by ep 4 but other than that and Gohan's training there probably won't be as much. Though I wonder how the pacing will be, Gohan had a lot of crap happen during his training.

Nappa's armor colour changed to the real thing when he arrived on Earth in the original Z series (just like Vegeta). How could Toei have missed this since they changed Vegeta's colour scheme in this episode? There's no excuse for this continuity error.
