@DragoDillPepper The Dragonbox is very easy to find. Ive seen them all over, but not at the stores you have gone too. I also thought when they first came out walmart or target would carry them, but the only places ive seen them at were Best Buy or F.Y.E. If you have one of those close to were you live u should check it out. Good luck
No dragon box's have been sold ever, at our walmart, or target, ever since Suncoast got canned its hard to find dragon ball items in general. Just a selective few Orange Brick sets, are out at walmart, and target, I already own. But, can anyone tell me why that stores aren't selling the dragon box's? Is it because they are rare?
2. It's going to be aired on NickToons Network, so I don't think they'd have a Japanese opening theme that little kids wouldn't understand, plus cheesy background music.
3. If it stays true to the Japanese version, the ratings will be incredibly low, 'cause like I said, DBZ was a hit after FUNimation took over, and I don't think they'd risk losing money, not to mention precious time and effort doing the series over again.
people dont wach dbz for the music only retards do and the jap soundtrack for kai is way beter then most of bruces work PS from your comment i asume you think that dbk is a cut and past job of dbz well its not colers script voices music have all been redone
Well, seeing as the Japanese music is cheesy as Hell, it'd be hard for a lot of people to take the show seriously. Besides, that soundtrack was way outdated, thus why FUNi changed it, and moreover, it just doesn't fit, IMO.
@Ringworm1281 Dragonball z Is my most favorite show, I love bruce faulconers music. I mean the jap tracks are too idk how to describe it they just dont go with the show well. I cant get into the fighting with the jap music. I hope Kai has Faulconer tracks or a whole new sound track. As long as its not the original sound track from japan.
@jpdbzrulz4sure Aw thats really a shame, Its not all that bad tho im not really to excited about Kai anyways considering its only about 100 episodes and Gohan sounds like a whimp. Oh well I do hope that the voice actors show up at more conventions with this release of Dragonball z Kai There starting to get old and im not so sure there going to be doing to much of that stuff anymore.
Just when i thought they finally got it rite they go and screw it up again. FFS Why cant they just do it once and do it rite, Now they have Properly Remastered it but leave out the Dub score? WHY!!!???
Actually, realisticly, that's an improvement because the dub score has no place on these sets as it solely focuses on the japanese fanbase, heck, even the dub with original score was an extra. It's good they didn't include it because the dub score is only one of the dark relics from when anime had to be watered down and altered to fit American standards, also one of Barry Watson's bad decisions. But now, they can finally release anime that respects the original material.
whats the difference between the orange uncut box seasons and these dragon boxes? is there anything actually different audio or visual wise? or is it just the same as the orange boxes but in a collector box?
OK Someone Please Answer me I Like The Bruce Faulconor Music Which One Should i get With The Best Graphics....Also Whats the Difference Dragonball Kai, The Normal DBZ DVDS The Dragon box And Dragonballz Digitally Remastered?
Dragonball Kai is a refreshed version without filler, redrawn scenes and new openings and endings and is released 16:9 on DVD and 4:3 on Blu-Ray (which may be different on FUNimations release). The normal DBZ volumes are from FUNimations old masters with a slight worse transfer to their recent work and are interlaced. The Season Sets/Digitally Remastered DBZ is from the old masters again but with a better transfer and progressive but with a bit too much DVNRing (improved in Season Six and up)
and was reframed (people say cropped but I say reframed because some was added to the sides) to 16:9 but no episodes previews are on it. The Dragon Box was restored frame by frame from the original masters with frame alignment (jittering), in 4:3 ratio and have all the episode previews.
IMO The jump to the Dragon Boxes is well worth sacrificing the dub score but if you're not so dependent on the japanese score and want the episodes cheap, you're better off getting the Season Sets.
Basically this is for the fans of the Japanese version, and people who didn't want the video cropped. The remastered sets have cropped video, which can take away the experience for some. (I believe its widescreen)
I personally like the Dragon Box set better, but these are still decent in my opinion.
can anyone please tell me if the dragonbox sets are going to replace the Dragon Ball Z remastered box sets in the near future because i hope it doesn't
can anyone please tell me if the dragonbox sets are going to replace the Dragon Ball Z remastered box sets in the near future because i hope it doesn't
Eh, it's good but doesn't seem like it's true to Dragon Ball at all. The DBoxes aren't really meant for dub fans so I can see why you won't buy them. But just a reminder when the Kai dub comes out FUNi won't be giving it a new soundtrack like they did with Z, it'll be faithful to the japanese version.
Dragon Ball Kai had better have the Bruce Falconer soundtrack unless Funimation doesn't like making money.
The "dub fans" as you call them greatly outnumber the hardcore-anime fans in the United States. And statistically, those hardcore-anime fans are such a small group of people, I'm betting 95% of the sales of this Dragon Box is from people expecting the DBZ they know and love.
Dragon Ball Kai: if Funimation actually wants to make money, they'll add the bruce falconer track.
I'm a dumb pussy? I actually have true arguments to back my opinions up.. You're not even acknowledging my arguments, like for example.. the fact FUNi has been faithful in all their dubs for so many years.
Ever bother listening to the Kai music? It's perfect and fitting, even more so than the japanese dbz music.
Wow you're one of the biggest idiots I've ever seen.
Us japanese fans have existed much longer than you faggy dub fans.. Expecting FUNi to add new music to an anime who's soundtrack is perfect, is beyond retarded.
You're not even a true anime fan, FUNi isn't catering to you at all.. So your bitching about them being faithful isn't going to do shit, and you'll know that much when the Kai dub airs and you won't have any shitty rock music in place of the fantastic original score.
Again, have you or have you not.. even fucking listened to the Kai music?
The only place worthless mother fuckers like yourself would even be noticed is through internet postings. And even then, pieces of shit like you are still the MINORITY.
A business targetted towards a small precentage of dumbasses like yourself would only LOSE money.
You're like the only one who expects FUNi to add Faulconer's score to Kai.. they won't lose shit.
Now just tell me this. After so many years of dubbing anime faithfully, One-Piece, FMA, etc..
Why the shit would they change back to the way they were when they were inexperienced? You're expecting too much of FUNi, and are in fact a fucking idiot.
I don't give a fuck what americunts like you think. You aren't a true DB fan or anime fan and FUNimation isn't going to change the music, so get over it and watch your DBZ dub with us music.
Also why do you care that FUNi is dubbing kai faithfully? Does everything DBZ in the US have to cater to you? This dub is going to be faithful, it's going to have the same music, and you can go fuck yourself.
Answer me, have you heard Kai's music? Because obviously you haven't.
I'm done. Come back when you actually grow a brain and learn to debate, because quite frankly you suck at it. You have no real points, you make up lies to support your argument, and all out you're a retard. And the sad thing is, you know I'm owning you.. That's why you get all pissed off and throw shitty insults in a desperate attempt to beat me, even though you know that's impossible.. I'm much smarter than you, and that's the truth.
I'm making up lies? You have the power of GOOGLE. Anime forums discuss this kind of thing all the time.
If you are saying I'm lying, you are contradicting your own Japanophile friends. Normally they'd throw in critcism as why their shows are poorly rated.
You are downright claiming its not true. And yes, anime DVD sales are significantly lower now anyway.
And despite people like you being a minority, you demand FUNi changes the DBKai music?
You're not a true DBZ fan or anime fan so why the fuck do you care? You're a minority and FUNi isn't going to change shit in the Kai dub, so deal with it.
And finally to answer your question, I'm not American.. I have some american channels, but mostly canadian ones.
Anime doesn't actually view her as often as it used to, just Naruto and Bleach.. That said, it's actually all they air here, so there may be some truth to what you said.
Regardless, anime dubs and dvds will keep getting made and sold, that's something that simply cannot stop.
American Cable broadcasts can confirm almost anything I said to you. I have no reason to "make things up" when I can turn on cable and confirm the things I already said.
You are already here on the internet. You can easily "google search" anything I've said to you if you believe the things I am saying is actually false.
You are "smarter" than me, while you don't even know the state of anime in the United States.
Hannah Montana is more likely to beat out the average anime in the U.S. Spongebob even.
With Toonami gone, adult swim is really the final well-known anime block in US cable networks, and NEW episodes of those shows have poorer ratings than re-runs of Robot Chicken(or when Futurama showed there.)
If that's true it has nothing to do with the fact FUNimation is staying true to the original versions of the shows they dub.
Either way FUNi isn't about to change the music and tone of a series that's already perfect. 100% certain that FUNi will not change the soundtrack, since it's actually a beautiful and perfect musical score. I'm sure if you heard the Kai soundtrack you'd like it, and if you don't.. well you always have the DBZ US dub with Faulconer's score.
And if you're a little displeased with the Dragon Box, know this. FUNimation would've put both tracks in if they could, but that would degrade the bit rate and make the quality downgrade in the process, they wanted to keep the beauty of the Dragon Box picture intact.
Sure they could've put the dub track with only Faulconer's musical score, but that just proves that they're trying to get an accurate dub out there.. and why the Kai dub will be faithful.
Anyways the argument earlier was pointless, we both have our opinions. I was really just trying to make it clear that FUNimation isn't going to put Faulconer's score on Kai, and got frustrated by you not listening or acknowledging that fact.
hell, in America most anime is actually DYING OUT.
It is a fact: a proven FACT. In the U.S.A, more people are likely to purchase anime merchandise after a 4KIDS dub than a Japanese original. It shows how much you Japanophile faggots matter.
case in point: One Piece merchandise almost dropped completely after the show was taken off the U.S TV networks.
Really? Because FUNi isn't losing profits at all, neither is Viz media.
You just make up stupid lies that you pretend are real. Anime dying out in the US? That's a laugh, it's one of the most profitable concepts in the world, and FUNi is filthy rich for it.
You should probably kill yourself, saves the world one less redneck americunt patriotic ignorant fucktard, making the world a bit less stupid.
Name what anime shows got canceled, give me the site that says that anime is dying down, and prove your "facts" aren't bullshit before spewing your mouth off like a fucktard.
The US isn't the only fucking country in the world with anime fans. Canada, Europe, Australia, etc.
That said, there's thousands of thousands of anime fans living in many different countries. Then there are anime fans in the US, most of them enjoy seeing faithful dubs of their favorite shows.
Then there's a minority, which are ignorant fucks like you who only watch the US dub of DBZ because it spams rock music in your ears.
Oh, the bitter irony. Giving american fan service to a product that is dedicated to hardcore japanese version fans and ditching a music track that american fans (excluding me) want. It's amazing that each time they release Dragon Ball Z, there is always a hiccup in each DVD version (literally) (NO OFFENSE, FUNIMATION). But hey, it's Dragon Box, and, technically, Vegeta still says 9000 in the actual episode.
You know whats annoying there being a dragonbox...when I did the same exact thing you did. D: then i had some of teh seaon's not in the cases but box setts...-___O makes me not happy
Hate to rub it in, but I originally bought only 3 seasons of the "Remastered" Sets, because, for an unknown reason, I had a gut feeling that Dragon Ball Z DVD's will be fixed. My wish has been granted. Now I have to start over again! Oy! (This was way before I knew about the Actual Dragon Boxes, which I realized on 9/30/2009)
No because they are just releasing those. Plus those are already 4:3 anyway so there is no need to. They only screwed up DBZ so they are redoing it here.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
Is the english dub word for word? Or is it the same old kiddy crap, G-rated dub that America has for some reason decided to disgrace the true essence of the legendary Son Goku and the epic sagas of Dragonball with?!
And quickly, I'm a fan of the ocean dub, precisely Goku (pre spaceship to Namek training for frieza), Frieza, Vegeta and kid Gohan, but I have to admit that I like Funimation's voices for Chi Chi, Bulma, Krillin and Yamcha more than OD's. Either way, both could be way better.
it is the same dubing as the remastered sets but with original picture and music. it also come with the japanese voice overs with reworked script (more direct translation)
and dude....
the ocean dubbing sucked hard balls. i hated when they got changed from the funimation dubs. us canadians or peolpe in the uk got screwed over.
the first 42 episodes are on this box; this is the true japanese version of dragon ball z, the way it was supposed to be watched. no bruce faulconer music included.
I like the Dragon Box, it's a better set than the other season sets. But I just wish they would put Bruce's score in there cause it is far more superior than the Japanese score. So this set is still not perfect. If I got that, then it'd be the perfect DBZ set.
they should make a collection like this with the movies in their time zones of the series. Cuz it'd be cool and less confusing because the movies are wierd with thier times in the series.
The dragon box is the ultimate prize for any dragon ball z fan. Trust me once you see the colors on your tv and see the picture in motion you'll appreciate the dragon box. All youtube videos of the dragon box wont give it true justice, but despite this I've uploaded one full episode from my dragon box on to my youtube channel. For those who want to see the dragon box's quality come to my channel and check it out.
It's not up on YouTube yet, but Amazon has the trailer for Dragon Box 2 up. It's piccolo talking this time. He says "The Dragon Box is far from inert."
For God's sakes, just buy the season orange brick box sets that includes the American soundtrack already! Besides, it's the end of 2009 and the decade of 2000, so live a little once in a while! But I don't blame all of you people-- I love the American soundtrack as much as you do since Bruce Faulconer was the best composer around when he made music for Dragon Ball Z in hardcore music with different styles of genres like rock, heavy metal, jazz, techno, and many more! I admire him too!
WTF? Who would want to b stuck with the crappy Japanese music? It's horrible. I'd rather castrate myself that listen to it. Y the hell can't they put faulkners music on it. He is amazing.
Nope. This set is for the Hardcore Japanese fans. Anyway, this is how Dragon Ball Z was meant to presented: with original music. Give it a shot. (Test it on the Season Sets)
Oh I have every intention on buying this with or without the english with american music, it's just I love the Funi dub with Faulconer's music just as much as the Japanese version.
If only they had both, it would have been the perfect box set for me, I wonder why they didn't put that audio track in... Lack of dvd space? Anyway thanks for your reply.
@tomrule123 The Remastered sets had both original japanese and american music. Why did they bother making this. It doesn't seem any different from the remastered sets.
@ClaytonTSheets To correct what they should've released in the first place. Anyway, turns out that they do have space in each disc of the dragon box to include the American Music. Why they really ditched it, I will never know. I don't listen to the American music, so it doesn't really matter to me.
One of the comments I got said that adding the american music for dragon box would mess with the picture clarity or something but I don't really understand that.
Hey. I grew up watching this on Toonami, but I'm fine with the music being different. I've got a question for people who own the dragon box: I've read that the english dub is out of sync. Is it any more out of sync than the broadcast versions or is it something that would actually piss me off? (Unless the synchronization is absolutely horrendous, like somebody keeps their mouth moving for 4 seconds after the audio stops it's not a huge deal to me.)
Yeah... Some ocean dub fans can get a little weird, like when I said that: "Tien's voice actor was very expressionless when he tried to warn android 17 about Cell".
He/she replied: "Tien almost got killed by Cell and doesn't care that much about 17"
yea well this one guy was talkin shit an was dissin funimation and shit and all i did was state my opinion that alot of the characters were kinda souless
Yeah, I know what you mean, I've seen quite a few arguments like that when it is about the ocean dub but then again fans of the funimation dub and the japanese version can be a little weird too.
It's fucking Dragonball Z, if you wanna get technical like it's Dragonball Evolution then go ahead, I'll be over here watching DBZ and enjoying myself and not giving a fuck about some stupid idiot who wants to argue with me about bullshitty things.

FUNi used Bruce Faulconer's score when they were inexperienced, and now they've learned.

Really? Because DBZ is doing fine in japan and every other country it's dubbed faithfully in.
FUNimation has been doing nothing but catering to us "Otaku" fans for years.. They don't give a shit about people like you.
Also, if it wasn't for japan and Akira Toriyama, you wouldn't even have DBZ you loser.

DBZ is doing fan in Japan?
Guess what you WORTHLESS FUCKING JAPANOPHILE. This ISN'T Japan. it's the United States.
If you responded to a "over 9000" video stating "it's really over 8000" you'd get the same response. Nobody gives a shit.
itsokayright 1 year ago
You're not even a true anime fan, FUNi isn't catering to you at all.. So your bitching about them being faithful isn't going to do shit, and you'll know that much when the Kai dub airs and you won't have any shitty rock music in place of the fantastic original score.
Again, have you or have you not.. even fucking listened to the Kai music?

Listen here you little bitch.
The only place worthless mother fuckers like yourself would even be noticed is through internet postings. And even then, pieces of shit like you are still the MINORITY.

You're like the only one who expects FUNi to add Faulconer's score to Kai.. they won't lose shit.
Now just tell me this. After so many years of dubbing anime faithfully, One-Piece, FMA, etc..
Why the shit would they change back to the way they were when they were inexperienced? You're expecting too much of FUNi, and are in fact a fucking idiot.

You are a stupid mother fucker. Hell the COMMENTS on youtube show it all.

You are a stupid mother fucker. Not only are you a worthless faggot, you are also a dumbass.
I pointed out that dramatic change in sales regarding DBZ related merchandise as of 1999 compared to pre-dub days.
it's OBVIOUS that it's the United States D.U.b that is the base of DBZ's popularity.
Don't tell me about JAPAN, or some other country. I don't LIVE there, and I don't give a fuck what they do.
itsokayright 1 year ago
I don't give a fuck what americunts like you think. You aren't a true DB fan or anime fan and FUNimation isn't going to change the music, so get over it and watch your DBZ dub with us music.
Also why do you care that FUNi is dubbing kai faithfully? Does everything DBZ in the US have to cater to you? This dub is going to be faithful, it's going to have the same music, and you can go fuck yourself.
Answer me, have you heard Kai's music? Because obviously you haven't.

I'm making up lies? You have the power of GOOGLE. Anime forums discuss this kind of thing all the time.
If you are saying I'm lying, you are contradicting your own Japanophile friends. Normally they'd throw in critcism as why their shows are poorly rated.
You are downright claiming its not true. And yes, anime DVD sales are significantly lower now anyway.

And despite people like you being a minority, you demand FUNi changes the DBKai music?
You're not a true DBZ fan or anime fan so why the fuck do you care? You're a minority and FUNi isn't going to change shit in the Kai dub, so deal with it.

And finally to answer your question, I'm not American.. I have some american channels, but mostly canadian ones.
Anime doesn't actually view her as often as it used to, just Naruto and Bleach.. That said, it's actually all they air here, so there may be some truth to what you said.
Regardless, anime dubs and dvds will keep getting made and sold, that's something that simply cannot stop.

What Funimation did for DBZ was just beautiful.
American Cable broadcasts can confirm almost anything I said to you. I have no reason to "make things up" when I can turn on cable and confirm the things I already said.
You are already here on the internet. You can easily "google search" anything I've said to you if you believe the things I am saying is actually false.

You are too stupid to even use the power of "google." Are you American? If not, I am sure you are aware of the Google search engine, right?
Do you actually watch Cable television, or are you only a loser who torrent's his anime in Japanese, so you could bitch about the "American version."
Either way, you are an idiot.
itsokayright 1 year ago
@OmegaCalibur
You are "smarter" than me, while you don't even know the state of anime in the United States.
Hannah Montana is more likely to beat out the average anime in the U.S. Spongebob even.
With Toonami gone, adult swim is really the final well-known anime block in US cable networks, and NEW episodes of those shows have poorer ratings than re-runs of Robot Chicken(or when Futurama showed there.)
itsokayright 1 year ago
If that's true it has nothing to do with the fact FUNimation is staying true to the original versions of the shows they dub.
Either way FUNi isn't about to change the music and tone of a series that's already perfect. 100% certain that FUNi will not change the soundtrack, since it's actually a beautiful and perfect musical score. I'm sure if you heard the Kai soundtrack you'd like it, and if you don't.. well you always have the DBZ US dub with Faulconer's score.
OmegaCalibur 1 year ago
And if you're a little displeased with the Dragon Box, know this. FUNimation would've put both tracks in if they could, but that would degrade the bit rate and make the quality downgrade in the process, they wanted to keep the beauty of the Dragon Box picture intact.
Sure they could've put the dub track with only Faulconer's musical score, but that just proves that they're trying to get an accurate dub out there.. and why the Kai dub will be faithful.
OmegaCalibur 1 year ago
Anyways the argument earlier was pointless, we both have our opinions. I was really just trying to make it clear that FUNimation isn't going to put Faulconer's score on Kai, and got frustrated by you not listening or acknowledging that fact.

Majority? Anime wise? YEAH FUCKING RIGHT.
hell, in America most anime is actually DYING OUT.
It is a fact: a proven FACT. In the U.S.A, more people are likely to purchase anime merchandise after a 4KIDS dub than a Japanese original. It shows how much you Japanophile faggots matter.
case in point: One Piece merchandise almost dropped completely after the show was taken off the U.S TV networks.

Really? Because FUNi isn't losing profits at all, neither is Viz media.
You just make up stupid lies that you pretend are real. Anime dying out in the US? That's a laugh, it's one of the most profitable concepts in the world, and FUNi is filthy rich for it.

@OmegaCalibur
Then you obviously haven't visited much anime news sites. There's ALWAYS talk on anime dying out and losing popularity on the United States.
On television, the only real remainder of anime showing was "Adult Swim."
The anime block has ALWAYS been the lowest rated block. With few exceptions, and most of the anime shows end up being cancelled.

You should probably kill yourself, saves the world one less redneck americunt patriotic ignorant fucktard, making the world a bit less stupid.

OmegaCalibur: simply google "adult swim" and anime. you can find a truckload of bitching and angry posters.
Adult swim actually AIRS the numbers of their ratings late nights, so we can see how poorly their shows are rated.
Hell, they even JOKE about the poor ratings of their anime series.
itsokayright 1 year ago
There's something you haven't realized yet.
The US isn't the only fucking country in the world with anime fans. Canada, Europe, Australia, etc.
That said, there's thousands of thousands of anime fans living in many different countries. Then there are anime fans in the US, most of them enjoy seeing faithful dubs of their favorite shows.
Then there's a minority, which are ignorant fucks like you who only watch the US dub of DBZ because it spams rock music in your ears.

With few exceptions, anime tends to be one of the most poorly rated. There are the Dragon BallZ and Narutos which make huge exceptions.
Other than that, anime tends to be on the quick cancelling blocks, in which anime fags on the internet whine about their shows being replaced.
Tell me, do you think it's a big coincidence when One Piece games and merchandise stopped coming out here in the U.S.A?

Oh, the bitter irony. Giving american fan service to a product that is dedicated to hardcore japanese version fans and ditching a music track that american fans (excluding me) want. It's amazing that each time they release Dragon Ball Z, there is always a hiccup in each DVD version (literally) (NO OFFENSE, FUNIMATION). But hey, it's Dragon Box, and, technically, Vegeta still says 9000 in the actual episode.

Is the english dub word for word? Or is it the same old kiddy crap, G-rated dub that America has for some reason decided to disgrace the true essence of the legendary Son Goku and the epic sagas of Dragonball with?!
And quickly, I'm a fan of the ocean dub, precisely Goku (pre spaceship to Namek training for frieza), Frieza, Vegeta and kid Gohan, but I have to admit that I like Funimation's voices for Chi Chi, Bulma, Krillin and Yamcha more than OD's. Either way, both could be way better.

it is the same dubing as the remastered sets but with original picture and music. it also come with the japanese voice overs with reworked script (more direct translation)

I like the Dragon Box, it's a better set than the other season sets. But I just wish they would put Bruce's score in there cause it is far more superior than the Japanese score. So this set is still not perfect. If I got that, then it'd be the perfect DBZ set.

The dragon box is the ultimate prize for any dragon ball z fan. Trust me once you see the colors on your tv and see the picture in motion you'll appreciate the dragon box.

For God's sakes, just buy the season orange brick box sets that includes the American soundtrack already! Besides, it's the end of 2009 and the decade of 2000, so live a little once in a while! But I don't blame all of you people-- I love the American soundtrack as much as you do since Bruce Faulconer was the best composer around when he made music for Dragon Ball Z in hardcore music with different styles of genres like rock, heavy metal, jazz, techno, and many more! I admire him too!

Hey. I grew up watching this on Toonami, but I'm fine with the music being different. I've got a question for people who own the dragon box: I've read that the english dub is out of sync. Is it any more out of sync than the broadcast versions or is it something that would actually piss me off? (Unless the synchronization is absolutely horrendous, like somebody keeps their mouth moving for 4 seconds after the audio stops it's not a huge deal to me.)
