Dragon Ball Z Kai Official Opening - Dragon Soul ( FUNimation English Dub, Song by Sean Schemmel )

[143iloveyou4ever]

Who knew Goku could sing? XD

[RorianTom]

Fun Fact: The person who sings the nick toons theme version is the same voice actor as Broly

[TheScorpioZen]

is this the voice of goku?



[TheBaconprincess]

this guys voice is dripping with auto-tuneage. i love the lyrics but the guy that does the Nicktoons version has a better voice

[southy98]

@TheBaconprincess Yeah, pretty much. He's a good Goku, but he can't really sing to save his life.

[SirEuroKing]

Who sings the opening in part five on blu ray?

[thehandsomeone100]

OH HELL YEAH ITS ABOUT TIME!!!!!

[CallmeSuperluigi]

This brings back memories. The saiyen saga, frieza saga and whats the hottest thing? Goku VS

VEGETA!!

[CallmeSuperluigi]

Hey!! Doesn't anyone See Raditz and Nappa for less then 1 second??

Thumbs up if you see.

[Zeldaeevee64]

i prefer the version by Vic Mignogna

[TheRocker365]

Link is broken...

[triple13me]

awesome



[trunkgeta01]

wsome



[mojoe022089]

autotuned, bit of a shame really

[MrFavorite01]

@mojoe022089 Yes, but considering that Sean Schemmel doesn't sing makes it more legible of use I guess. Try singing good when you had to scream your voice out for hours at a time in front of a microphone. Don't ask why they didn't use a singer. Just know that they used Goku's American VA.

[M7mod97]

anyone knows where to download the dubbed episodes?

[Supersonic61901]

japanese versions sounds better

[vikingirish34]

sounds autotuned

[costybarbu]

sounds way better in japanese (:

[Absolutezero911]

Nappa : hey vegeta, what the scouter says about this video's likes??

Vegeta : its over nine thousaaaaand!! *breaks scouter*

Goku : Own'd!

[d4rkloler]

@Absolutezero911 Actually, it isn't.

[TheRyantheechidna]

Is it sad to say this is my fave show opening ever because of the Song

[AliceSonicGundamFan]

Better than Toonzai 4Kids made.

[Shamaninja14]

Wow... I've heard so many of his roles... none of them sound like they can really sing... I stand corrected, I guess...

[prototype3651]

am i the only one who sings "dragon soul" whenever i defeat a dragon in skyrim?

[Shadowmaster47X]

@prototype3651 Oh I thought only i did that

Its just so fitting at that moment :)

[kadindarklord]

@prototype3651

given that I don't play Skyrim

[kadindarklord]

@prototype3651 no

[LegoMichael5]

Thanks FUNimation now Sean sounds like T-Pain.

[CaptainPengu]

@LegoMichael5 LOL

[Saturnstales]

Don't try to show Tien and Yamcha in the intro as if they are useful....we all know the saiyan favoritism...and piccolo DBZ has

[cooldude80852]

@Saturnstales in kai tien is kind if useful yamcha and chatzu is useless

[pepkid]

When Goku died in the explosion Cell tried to destroy the Earth with, he did it for you and me. If you're not ashamed to love Goku, post this as your status and show everyone. Thank you, Goku. I lifted my arms for the spirit bomb every time you asked for my energy.

[Michael8414]

I like the other voice honestly, it seemed to fit the style of music better, but just my opinion

[Zenyth01]

The animation quality of this opening was very misleading to the actual show...

[yungbludofny]

@Zenyth01 i soo agreee when i saw this i was like ohh. so they remastered everything just for kai huh?.. so disappointed.. it would have been awesome!!

[MastarPhilip777]

This song is rubbish.... Miss the good ole days song.

[wankiFFKKKKKKKKKK]

OMG !!! I LOVE YOU GOKU !!!! xD

[raypetree244]

@RettesDnert no moron, thats Goku's voice actor. Sean Schemmel

[RettesDnert]

Isn't this just some fan made remake using auto tunes cos he cant sing for crap

[Bluejayz1996]

And why hasnt youtube taken this video down? I upload the opening and then they decide to flag me really -.- Come on youtube

[THEBATMON123]

Be honest He sounds like elton john hahaXD

[Naruhinaluver15]

idky they didn't use this version for the TV opening, 'cause Sean Schemmel's version is just... better (nothing against Vic Mignolia though, cause his version was great too)

[RottenMonkeyFarts]

.....Well at least the opening is like most animes now

[BoyWhoLikesTV]

THE SONGS POWER LEVEL!? NO, IT CAN'T BE!? IT'S OVER 9,000!!!

[littlespringcutie450]

77 people did not find Paradise

[ugdigaigyi7uyvg8os]

loool look @ krillen 1.23

[SunixLynn]

i can sing this song word for word ^^

[Ronark120]

this is my favorite version of the dub openings without a doubt. the one who sings for the second dvd release sucks

[Hatake1432]

WE WILL FIND PARADISE!!! ALL WE HAVE TO DO IS GO! GO! FREE YOUR SOUL!!!!

[pepsirush11]

im huge dub person..butt the sub for this theme is better

[PivotBallZProduction]

Where can I get the Nicktoons version

[beatriz95099]

adorei a abertura do dragon ball z kai

[AVET87]

Dragon Soul= awesome

Rock The Dragon= PURE EPICNESS!!!!!

[petplatypus]

@AVET87 Rock the Dragon is nice but its not epic its barely even a song and its repetitive it also doesn't convey what DBZ is about "Cha la head Cha la" and Dragon Soul do

[AVET87]

@petplatypus

I just got to ask did you grow up in the 90's/early 2000's while watching DBZ?

[petplatypus]

@AVET87 yes I did I'm a very hardcore DB fan but I don't let nostalgia blind my opinion I'm a fan of the real DBZ as in the Manga and Kai the crappy old inaccurate FUNimation dub from Toonami is my least favorite part of the franchise but I have a soft spot for its cause its from my childhood Kai is still better though

[AVET87]

@petplatypus Well I respect your opinion but I highly disagree with you...to me Funi DBZ will always be the best...it would not be where it is today at least in America without it, plus everything about the Funi dub is just wait for it........Epic

[myprettylittlebaby]

this isnt the one they show on nicktoons right??? im used to that one.

[petplatypus]

@myprettylittlebaby the one on Nick is a shorted version of the 3rd version of Dragon Soul sung by Vic Mignogna if that makes sense

[myprettylittlebaby]

@petplatypus kinds, so then how many versions is there???????

[cristerela]

This is my favorite version of this song..

[XGhostwhisperX]

No offense but that is NOT Sean. Sorry. I've heard him for real and he doesn't have a weird accent!

[SRDsports]

@XGhostwhisperX, i doubted myself when first hearing this, but it is sean you can hear his ''higher'' normal voice some times. but when a person sings in a studio with musical effects and without it on a stage or live it always sounds different.... just for example, listen to a band on a studio album and then live on stage, i always think that they suck when hearing them live but it just sounds different without the musical effects.

vic's version seems to high pitched but its vic nonetheless :)

[daredevil466]

ugh.. how much i wish dragon ball, dragon ball z, and dragon ball gt would come back on tv with the original music and all!

[XxPlaYingPiaNoxX]

@daredevil466 in germany are dragonball and dragonball z currently in TV :P

[daredevil466]

@XxPlaYingPiaNoxX your so lucky :(

[XxPlaYingPiaNoxX]

@daredevil466 but you can watch it online^^

[daredevil466]

@XxPlaYingPiaNoxX yeah but its better on TV :P

[petplatypus]

@daredevil466 just buy the DVDs the Season sets are cheap and they have all the audio if I'm not mistaken or buy the Blu-Rays they have all the audio for sure

[6julli]

dont stop dont stop make more episodes make new episodes or i will **** you so start with new episodes or i wil comeeeee and set a gun in your mouth! so make new episodes or i will come!!! and........

[cyclone123ize]

@6julli rape me up the back. I DONT THINK SO!!!!!

[cyclone123ize]

i like the original

[PaulXPZ]

love the song and Sean but Vic sings it better

[darktsukikat]

@PaulXPZ

yes that's true, but the fact that's goku's voice is singing, just think it doesn't even happen in the japanese version

[NeoShade69]

Great Song! Perfect Show!

[Ortej331]

I wore out the play button.

[SuperIgaa]

My favorite part 0:40 till 0:50 ;D

[XxPlaYingPiaNoxX]

@SuperIgaa This is my favorite part too^^

[devilman256]

we will fight for love and glory

[startmirca]

76 people like Rock the Dragon.

[MrdotClean]

@startmirca there will NEVER be a better opening then rock the dragon

[startmirca]

@MrdotClean At least this one's lyrics arent "Rock The Dragon , DragonBall Z!!".

This one has soul and more.

I'm glad Funimation finaly decided to dub a Japanese opening instead of replacing it.

[xxxOrcaman4xxx]

@startmirca You're right. If only Kai was uncut and uncensored. It would make me consider stop watching the older DBZ and watching this instead.

[startmirca]

@xxxOrcaman4xxx Kai is uncut , the censored ones are the ones in 4kids and Nicktoons(especially 4kids) .

The uncut ones are the Japanese Kai(called DragonBall Kai) and the uncut American version on DVD.

[xxxOrcaman4xxx]

@startmirca What about UNcensored american versions?

[startmirca]

@xxxOrcaman4xxx Don't you know the Uncut American versions of Kai?

Geez , do some research.

[Vacerous]

I've never heard Sean sing I always heard the Vic Mignogna version

[TheNerfBoyNerd]

I don't care if Sean sounds auto-tuned he sill sounds awesome

[Dsurvivor21stCentury]

@TheNerfBoyNerd I didn't really notice it until you told me...now it's all I hear :(

[MarcusFen2008]

I like this song, but.......the autotune is unbearable as hell!! ):



[555faizer]

why this quality is so high! ithink if dbz like this many people like it

i like this quality it is so amazing than DBZ

[sega31098]

Vic Mignogna sounded better.

This singer was autotuned...

[TheARDORITO]

Dragon Ball Z was so special, that the opening was made into english for North America. Few animes can say that, but DBZ is the only one who can say that its had numerous openings translated to english!

[Ryan99G]

He sounds auto tuned!

[Vires117]

Am I the only one that realizes that this isn't Sean Schemell?

[jacoblgames]

But the titles say that someone else performed this version, or by "vocals" did it mean like background vocals?

[TheMaddenfan1]

so is the orginal dragonball z anime is better than kai

[TheARDORITO]

@TheMaddenfan1 Yea, Kai rushes the first saga (Only one I've watched so far) and skips alot of episodes and events. You never see how the human Z fighters find each other again, or the 6 months that Gohan was left alone to survive in the wilderness. I'm pretty sure theres more too, but with the great graphics Kai has, who can complain?

[TheMaddenfan1]

@TheARDORITO im on episode 26 of dragonball z kai

[sofiane4525]

[muciukas7]

we will fight for love and glory

we will live to tell a story.... <3

[Ecua9Tempo]

@muciukas7 HELL YEA!! BEST PART!!!!!

[Zeldafinalfantasyfan]

The Japanese wake up in the morning to this epic show!

Anywhere else we wake up to SpongeBob -___-

[ThatFatPlumber]

Is it just me or did that sound better than the actual theme shame Sean used auto tune oh well.

[Iamrealydutch]

good song

[Kiriana]

hes autotuned....badly

[MaxBanKai1]

I dont watch dubbed cause of this lame song,, he isnt even following the original text

[Allistar123]

@MaxBanKai1 cool story weeaboo.

[ianh97]

@MaxBanKai1 If you followed the original text, the song would sound like super saiyan shit. As in the words wouldn't go with the rythem. If you're obsessed with Japan, learn Japanese...

PS: That sounded way more harsh than I intended. Lol sorry

[gipro1]

The new intro looks way better then the new episodes.

[TheMaddenfan1]

lol this teacher in my class thinks that dragonball z kai is like pokemon

[DemonSlayerZero]

@TheMaddenfan1 Sadly, a LOT of people think that. :(

[TheMaddenfan1]

@DemonSlayerZero they are stupid

[Nandomaron1990]

DAT AUTOTUNE.

[bestrader]

How is this in widescreen when the show, even the blu-rays, is in 4:3? Also this is really beautiful, I wish they would have reanimated the whole thing!

[SonicFan200000]

Wait a sec...Sonic and Shadow the Hedgehog are similer to Goku and Vegeta cuz they're rivals and Dragon Balls can use 1 wish at a time and they seperate,while the chaos emeralds are similer but they can use the emeralds to turn super.

[Arekkusu1994]

Hmm, this version is the full one, and the Nicktoons version has Vic Mignogna, which do i prefer???

[michaelwatsonful]

Sean singing= goku singing. That's so hard to imagine

[Avankiri]

@michaelwatsonful Sean singing sounds somewhat like Sonny with a deeper voice.

[michaelwatsonful]

@Avankiri I think he sounds better than Sonny but could've gone without the autotune.

[Love4Passion]

@michaelwatsonful

LMAO

on the side note: sean sounds like the rick roller guy x D .. lol

still love sean schemmel though lol

[michaelwatsonful]

@Love4Passion Yeah. As do I. I wish Akira Toriyama would resurrect dbz for a new generation...

[tehcolourpurple10796]

Hm. I was just watching Dragon Ball Z Kai on CW4Kids and the opening sounded different...

[skysamfreeman]

@tehcolourpurple10796 The TV version is sung by Vic Mignogna.

[iamfasterthanyou]

Dat autotune

[GyakutenOSTs]

imagine Goku singing the theme

[SuperClonk]

@GyakutenOSTs He sings one of them (I forgot if its Funi or 4kids)

[PrimoCyza]

0:54, BETCH SLAPPED!

[rockleepwn1]

my friends was so hoked on dbz tha he thought he could lean to fly buy harnisng energy or whaterver. so when i sked him to play xbox or ps2 i would find him meditating or trainig and shit. -_-

[TheLightingAsan]

Don't stop! Don't stop! Diggy ho-ole! Don't stop Don't stop Di-a-mo-onds!

[ianh97]

@TheLightingAsan SIMON!

[TheLightingAsan]

@ianh97 Сaptain obvious! :D

[alanni07]

Goku can sing!?!?!?

[TheMaddenfan1]

so better than the 4kids and nicktoons version funimation is the best anime company for anime english dub

[rikkulockhart15]

Out of all the singers Funimation picked to sing Dragon Soul (ironically two of them being Goku and Krillin,) I think I liked Sean Schemmel and Vic Mignogna the best.

[MrBumpits]

@rikkulockhart15 Vic didnt voice krillin?

[rikkulockhart15]

@MrBumpits Nope. Vic voiced Broly in the movies and voices Burter in Kai. Krillin is voiced by Sonny Strait, who ALSO voiced Bardock in DBZ, Maes Hughes in Fullmetal Alchemist, and Usopp in One Piece. :)

[MrBumpits]

@rikkulockhart15 Thats what I was saying! I know my voice actors, just like you! :)

[rikkulockhart15]

@MrBumpits Yeah. What I meant by my comment earlier is that Sonny Strait ALSO sang Dragon Soul, as did Greg Ayres (Guldo,) Justin Cook (Raditz, Dende, evil Buu, and several other characters) and Brina Palencia (Chiaotsu and Puar.) So all the singers of Dragon Soul are DBZ cast members. Type in a search with the VA's name and see for yourself. :D

[MrBumpits]

@rikkulockhart15 Right, I thought when you said Goku and Krillin, then Sean and Vic, you were saying Vic voiced Krillin.

[contributer1]

@TheEndlessWarlock all i was saying is that this song belongs to the english version of Dragon Ball Kai Theme song

theres the theme song on nick toons

then theres the english version of Dragon ball Kai

[TheEndlessWarlock]

@contributer1

The English version of Dragon Ball Kai is called "Dragon Ball Z Kai" since it's a redub of Dragon Ball Z. The opening is called "Dragon Soul" and FUNimation made an English version

tl;dr There is nothing wrong with the title. Deal with it.

[contributer1]

@TheEndlessWarlock it was originally Dragon Ball Kai thats the japanese version and nicktoons made an english version of that... and this song is a special feature of Dragon ball kai in a dvd and this song was the dragon ball kai song in english then theres the one on nicktoons

[Wiman445]

@contributer1 in my opiinion nicktoons version is pure crap compared to this one

[TheMaddenfan1]

@Wiman445 i agree nicktoons should not have anime

[Gameplayery]

the singer is the guy who does the voice of Goku :)

[Dadarknyt]

**** I WANTED JAP~!!!!

[sharklord]

I hate when people argue over dubs and subs. If u want to hear goku sound like a little girl go watch the jap version. If u wanna hear goku like he's about to shit his pants watch eng dub. Not so hard.

[AICabal]

@sharklord Japenese versions suck ASS!

[TheMaddenfan1]

@AICabal the japanese version of goku he sounds weird

[pavel619]

@TheMaddenfan1 or does the american version sound weird xD

[TheMaddenfan1]

@pavel619 no i said japanese not english

[dbzawsm]

@sharklord he sounds like a girl in the japanese dub

[hetekos]

@sharklord Masako Nozawa the japanese adult and kid voice for Goku is a girl

[GAISHIMAS1467]

WATCH JAPANESE THIS SUCKS

[xr1st05]

4:00-4:04 -jizzes- EPIC! i always watch that moment 5-6time when i listen this song

[superman320]

i prefer he vic mingana version

[somethingXX12]

so goku can auto tune nice

[fan2mario64]

This song is the best part of this serie.

[funtime100001]

awesome FUNimation is the best
