Like with Sailor Moon I'm curious to see what voice actor retention they can have here. Obviously Videl, Mr. Satan and Tenshinhan will have to be replaced since they're either dead or have moved on, but I think they can realistically get most of them back. Masako Nozawa is in her late 70's, but apparently still going strong. Pretty amazing.

Kai already gave us some of the replacements: Mr.Satan was voiced by Unshou Ishizuka and Tenshihan by Hikaru Midorikawa barring incidents I don't think they would change that.
Also let's not forget Dende will be voiced by Aya Hirano. A part of me would have preferred a Kai buu saga announcement, but I'm not going to complain about a movie especially with Toriyama involved.

This is quite the unexpected development. I'm certainly looking forward to what role Piccolo will play in this film seeing as how he was under-utilized in the Buu saga; now is Toriyama's chance to give his favorite character (Piccolo) some time to shine. And of course, we may see the re-emergence of the formidable Gogeta. Personally, I prefer Gogeta as a character over Vegetto.
Definitely looking forward to seeing this .

Maybe I'm the only one here who thinks that Dragon Ball was a way better show than Dragon Ball Z. Dragon Ball was a show full of unexpected moments and charming and colourful characters, It had a sense of adventure as well. Dragon Ball Z was an incredible predictable show with epic moments here and there but totally boring to watch after a while

Me too.
I particularly don't like the voice of adult Goku in DBZ. He sounded like a granny . I really really hope that they replace the old VA with a more macho-voiced VA. That would be a treat for me, but one can only hope .

You may be right (It's a shame I never listened to the English dub). The funny thing is, the Indonesian VA/dubber from when it aired on my local TV sounds WAY better and more fitting than the original Japanese VA .

Aside from ENG voices they had their own OST or BGM. I love the original OST ,but funnimation OSt was better IMO.

Also as someone who remembers the English dub I'll just say there's a LOT more grunting during it. For some reason back in the day dubbers though they had to fill every single second of every TV show with as much noise or music as possible so almost any time there's supposed to be silence in the original there's this persistent grunting from the particpants in a battle or outside of that just some "off-screen dialogue" that gets added in. I think Scott McNeil was probably the most bothersome voice actor for me, because he seemed to have to belch out every line for his characters like Piccolo. Quote:
Funny story about the music, here in Canada we had the Funimation dub all the way up to the Freeza Saga, but there was a major gap of about a solid year between that airing and when the Cell Saga started (I remember going all of grade 11 without any new DBZ to watch at all) because of a dispute between YTV and Funimation that eventually lead to a temporary falling out and YTV adopting what would become known as the Ocean Dub. The funny thing is for that dub the music from that old Megaman cartoon by Ruby-Spears (Super Fighting Robot! MEGA MAN!) ended up being licensed out to fill in the OST for Dragon Ball Z, which was immediately noticeable to me having watched that awful excuse for a Mega Man show as a kid. I'll just say I got used to hearing the same 10 or so track over and over again by the time I was done high school and it really gave me an appreciation not only for the original OST, but for Bruce Falconer's efforts as well.

Oh gosh it's been a while since I've watched the dub or sub so I can't even say sorry. I remember the first Goku one being pretty good in both languages though. Typically the general rule is that any BGM in the Japanese version is far more understated while the Funimation dub is straight up synth-rock if that helps. Depends on if you prefer orchestral music or rock for DBZ. Personally at this point in time I could go for either even if I prefer my scores to be orchestral, but I remember as a kid being a little irked at not being given a choice. The Shuki Levy stuff can stay buried by the sands of time for all I care though.

maybe because of nostalgia I found myself looking for the ENG DUB scenes and the BGM for said scenes. But I will say this my opinion maybe bias because I grow up with the Funnimation Dub of the series.
