Or even VHS or VCD?

I was interested in buying Kai, but as usual with DBZ the releases are all a convoluted mess. Some don't have Yamamoto's score, some are "remastered", i.e. have the detail taken out and are cropped to 16:9.

Dragon Boxes are like $200 still lol. Toei sort your act out.

Some people work and enjoy buying the things they like.

Yamamoto's score was ripped out because of his plagiarizing fuck up. :troll The newer Kai Blu rays titled Seasons 1-4 have the Kikuchi score for the Saiyan/Freeza/Cell arcs. The Kai Boo arc contains Sumitomo's score. I got them on sale on Amazon for $20 each.

This is the first one containing Kikuchi's score.

Funimation/Toei/Toriyama will only get my money if they completely erase Suparar from memory. :fearless

I have the "brick" DVDs of DB, Z and GT, as well as the first of Funi's release of the Movie double-packs featuring the two TV Specials that I got around 6-7 years ago. Wouldn't have done so if Kissanime had existed back then though, considering the main reason for buying them was that most episodes on other sites are limited to just the dub.
Also bought Battle of Gods a few years ago back when most sites had yet to improve the subtitle accuracy or add the extended edition, though I can't recommend it (or at least not the Manga UK release) since the subs are just the dub script rather than a direct translation of the Japanese script like Funi's previous releases (eg. Switching back and forth between Beerus' title being "Destroyer" and "God of Destruction".)

Really no point considering KissAnime. :gay

Yeh, cuz I'mma have access to Kissanime during the apocalypse!

It makes it easier to watch. Other people will see it and are more likely to watch it. Plus I can lend it to friends, to get them to watch it. Plus it's the official subs without any occasional bad editing (although sometimes official subs lack English subtitles on songs, which I definitely like to have).

@ Paladin

Who the heck is Sumimoto? Looked him up....I see. I watched a clip of Goku going SSJ with his music, sounds like some sad Bollywood or disney movie. His music was good for Super.


How is the placement for the Kikuchi score? And are those ones 16:9 or 4:3?

Saiyan/Freeza/Namek is 4:3, but the Boo arc is 16:9. The Kikuchi score has decent placement. Better than Faulconer still. Sumitomo has a few decent tracks for Kai, but most of his better ones come from ToP/Black arc. He's hit or miss.

I hope you have batteries, generators and portable televisions for that apocalypse. :donovan

You got plans to get more? Like the Blue Bricks?

I'm going to look into the ones that Paladin has a bit more, maybe I will aim to buy them within one year. Maybe I will be earning enough to just get the expensive ones though. Maybe that fill the whole in my heart. And the evident hole in my brain, judging from that previous sentence.

Maybe. The DB anime doesn't interest me much tbh. The manga is good enough for now.
