Thread: Dragonball Kai, Remake of the original DBZ

So, every true fan of Dragonaball will tremble to hear this news.

Maybe this video (totally random found on youtube) will sum it up pretty good:

To be honest, right now, I am shocked, and trembling of exitement, so I didnt bother searching if there might be already a similiar thread. ^^

I guess, this is all that has to be said.... I MEAN DBZ COME ON GUYS! XD

Remake with:

-New Openings

-Totally Remastered epidodes

-100% original Story

-New synchro (all original voices)

-ALL FILLER EPISODES AND ! SCENES ! are removed from the episodes, meaning there are only about 100 episodes instead of 290 left.

This is the most ridiculous epic shit I have seen in years.

That´s cool.But the stuff with the filler episodes isn´t confirmed yet I think [checked on dbzpedia :P] -> it´s pretty probable though.

Found the Opening here. If you go on the TAG DBKai , you´ll also find the new eps subbed [german,but there´s also English I think....]
If somebody finds the eps on a better site,please tell ^^

I was reminded that DBZ was one of the series in which I did not enjoy original japanese voices - I prefered "It's over 9000 !!"

Also every true fan of DBZ needs to watch one amazing abridged series

Oh the synch is fabulous.

It promoted as a complete new recording of the original cast.
And as far as the first 2 episodes concern, you can clearly say that those extremely high pitched voices that were characteristic for DB arent there anymore.

It has now a more modern style of synch than it has before. (as far as I can tell!) Reminding me of naruto/bleach style of synch.

And the new scene order of the first 2 episodes is insane. I love it.
Its now so clear and sharp, without crappy scenes that didnt even exist in the manga just to lenghten the episodes.

I always loved the Dragonball Anime because of his emotional and great moments (Goku going SSJ, Gohan going SSJ2!), but hated it for being lenghty in comparision to the manga (which I prefered to read if I was in the mood for some DB).

But with this remake, I see myself getting all episodes and tuning into them if I am in DB mood.

To make it clear, imo this is the wickest shit ive ever seen.

So they are really good?I´ll try to watch them today

And yeah,I too remember how excited I was when those guys transformed etc. ^^

I think I almost cried when Frieza killed Krillin/was beating Goku around :P [I was younger then of course :P]

^I didn't cry when Krillin was killed but a tear did come to my eye when I first saw goku go super saiyan. Lol

^No reason to be ashamed. We're all human.

But yeah, same for me... Kouririn didnt touch me that much, since the Dragonballs and all.
The first time Kouririn died from Piccolos minion touched me a lot... was the first time a major character died.

As an avid supporter of DBZ for the majority of my life, been watching Dragon Ball since I was eight or younger, this is friggin awesome news to me.

That movie seemed like coffin nails for the story; but I guess there's support from the right people this time. I just hope it gets through the whole story without getting canceled.

I have no worries for that. The fanbase is so huge in Japan, Dragonball is almost counted as national treasure. Just think about one whole generation of mangakas being inspired by Dragonball (Naruto, Bleach, Onepiece, Shaman King, etc.).


And yes, the movie is horrible. Just took the names of DB + 7 magic things and changed everything else and called it Dragonball.
Just WTF.
