I can agree that the japanese and origina version of the song fits better to Dragon Ball, but hudging the japanese and english versions as independant songs, the english version wins. Mostly because I can actually sing along in the english version :)
of course, I can imitate the japanese version, but I don't like to do that. No offense to japanese ;)
I wonder why funimation doesn't use this opening. Even in the uncut dvd boxset of the king piccolo saga this opening is not there. Are they that lazy to make the change?
they should've had this be the intro for the season 4 and 5 box sets, but noooo they kept the exact same one through all the seasons. oh well!! at least i LOVE it :D
Wish Krillin was featured more in this intro. That parachute sequence was not enough. He's definitely noticeably absent during that bit with Master Roshi and the other fighters on those rock pillars. I don't care that this was the Piccolo Arc intro where Krillin's dead. He should still be in it. Otherwise, VERY good intro
@Saikex here's One Piece X Dragon Ball crossover for example.
1980- late 1990s anime was one of the most greatest golden ages of all time. My older cousins used to watch some anime when I was little. I'm glad I watch DB & some other 1990s anime in Toonami especially Bo(7x). Its too bad they're people who had either never heard of old animes or dislike classic animes cause they stinks + they think recent animes are better than old animes in their opinions. CN should show 1990s anime more often.
y don't they reanimate the dragon ball series so that the younger generations can like it as much as we did instead of keeping leting the kids not know the most epic animation in the world
@jihajia Because CARTOON network replaced TOONami with Real life things. A Cartoon channel based off of real life people sucks, and I hate their decision for it. I miss the good old days where I waited for Dragon Ball and Dragon Ball Z to air for the day. Then I lost the ability to watch it, only to find out later that it was replaced by Adult Swim. Worst day of my life...
Why reanimate it? Just show the original Dragon Ball by taking it from the original Dragon Box and putting it back on TV in the best quality it's ever been in.
well screw those individuals of the younger generation that you're talking about. I was a kid once and I know how they think. If something looks good then it looks good to them no matter what medium it's done in. What matters is the effort put into making the product. And by god Dragon Ball had some real effort put into it, especially back during the original Dragon Ball.
I think the dvd remastered version is going to look like this video in king guy saga and guy jr saga in season 4 season 5 of dragon ball but season 1 -3
as a guse for the first intro of dragon ball on to dvd.
@HanmaDante187 This has a more traditional sound that goes well with the asian themes and overtone. Funimation for all of their home releases used this exact opening translated near perfectly.
No its the 2nd Japanese Opening. Funimation didn't use this one for some reason or other. The one we got was the first Opening, which Funimation kept til the end of the show.
oh cmon why would they waste their time and change the picture and this isnt a second opening cause its the same exact song i mean why waste the time to change da picture
everyone. if you want to see an english version of this opening, open 2 internets. let one be the 1 original english opening.and let the other one be this opening. get the timing right and you will see what i mean ^^
This one is kind of boring... until 1:33. Goku flying on the Numbus cloud is king of boring... But that shot with Goku's allies was cool and him jumping off the Nimbus cloud was good as well.
