Maybe Revival of F won't get adapted since it isn't necessarily important to the plot like Battle of Gods is.

Jaco in episode 20 is fantastic news.

I wonder if Tights will show up in Super too. She got a "design" for RoF after all. (It's just Bianca from Dragon Quest 5).

Dragon Team are the best ones but like you say, unreliable.
You can probably just find a quick sub on release day if watching it shortly after release is important to you, but you won't get one with a translation as good as DT's.

Gonna watch Resurrection of F this weekend when it goes up for digital rental on Google Play. I'm surprised Funimation hasn't bothered hosting some of the older movies like that. It's nice to be able to toss $4 bucks at google for a thing that I want to watch exactly once.

I got the itch to watch the Bojack movie the other day, and was totally willing to pay to rent it like that, but instead I had to watch some rando's lovely youtube upload with artifacting and copyright filter avoidance measures. You're leaving money on the table, Funimation :homebrew:

Yet where is that woman now? Tell me, in what heave does she reside? None of them. Because no God bothered to listen or care. If that is what you think it means to be a God, then you and all your teachings are welcome to do as that poor women did. And vanish from these realms forever.

After seeing random Tree of Might Gifs around, I wanted to rewatch that movie recently, and I ended up in the same boat. Looking for some lovely Youtube video. Didn't even bother watching it after the ridiculous forest fire clean up though.

The Super manga is skipping RoF because the artist did one for it recently, it's monthly and there's no real need for him to rehash it so quickly. Maybe that's where the confusion is coming from.

Info is in the first article on Kanzenshuu right now.

I found this really cool compilation of all Dragon Ball game openings, definitely deserves to be shown. Even if it commits the great sin of removing Cha-la-head-cha-la.

Speaking of removing openings. I am assuming Rock the Dragon was removed because of licensing basically? I have the Blu Rays and man it feels really weird hearing a generic rock track for the opening.

Granted can be fixed by putting it Japanese and Cha La Head Cha La plays.

Which is weird since the movies do use Cha La Head Cha half the time, with others not having a song or the generic song you mentioned.

I honestly don't understand why they don't just use the Japanese OP music instead of generic buttrock. Even with the Faulconer score, you're not exactly loving fooling anyone as to where DBZ came from.

The old DBZ music is super fun. All lo-fi kung-fu movie orchestral poo poo, with hammy drama stings. It's really evocative of the conceptual source material of ridiculous low-budget martial arts films, while still being dramatic enough to match up to the crazy poo poo happening on screen.

I thought it did a great job of establishing mood in the later parts of the series. The slight Godzilla-y edge of much of the music fit for the always slightly silly style of the series, while it still built up dramaticism well: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QhwCsvN3D24

I've said before I like Faulconer's score when heard in isolation/used appropriately, but when they shove it into every second of silence in the show and mash them together randomly it gets really loving old and irritating. As repetitive as DBZA's use of the japanese/Kai scores can get, it's still less monotonous than the faulconer soundtrack as used in the actual show.

That was the main complaint back on the forums back when they were releasing new dub episodes back in 2000-2002. The music was constant, and I think I would have been more okay with the Faulkner score if they used periods of silence appropriately.

Though we all knew it was going to happen, this led to them completely butchering Gohan going SSJ2.

I can't really say I ever noticed the music too much personally. I can't remember it ever affecting my enjoyment of the product.

Yeah, you don't really realize how much ever-present the Faulconer score was until you go back and watch a few episodes now that you're not eight years old.

I had the same reaction when I went back to watch the original Star Wars about a year ago. They're playing music all the god drat time in that movie.
