#DragonBallSuper #DragonBallZ #DragonBall
Enough with blu-ray releases for DBZ! How about a blu-ray release for Dragon Ball!?! That's waaaaayyyyyyy overdue!
This man speaks the truth! That series has not had as much love when it comes to remasters
@@stevangonzalez5908 it's sad. I understand the reasons that DBZ is the most popular but this is the chance the release Dragon Ball on blu-ray for the long time fans and also for a new generation to have the chance to love the o.g as well.
@@SamuraiRican same. I know GT had such a long boring build up to get to the first main arc with Baby, but it had it's great moments in the series.
I want this release. Been waiting for DBZ uncropped
@@SlipknotSevenfold1 I honestly don't want them to (touch) (bastardize) ruin how Dragon Ball, and Dragon Ball GT looks.
Dbz getting remastered more times than resident evil 4 and GTA 5 😂👌.
Resident Evil 4 broooo 😂
Rereleased not remastered
And Skyrim 😂😭
nothing tops ports of the og doom :)
Makes no sense for them to put out the best product they can cause in their minds they think if they release a great product that they won’t be able to release anymore versions after that so they just release shit quality cause it still sells and makes money for them
Last time I was this early, Broly was not yet canon.
BUY DA SHIRT
@@Geekdom101 simp
@@Geekdom101 sorry no money
Geekdom101 I thought you said there was no canon😏
@@Geekdom101 Gekdom did you watch digimon ep 9 and 10 they are epic do review .
People have said this before, and I’ll say it again since I agree with it: RERELEASE THE DRAGON BOXES OR FINISH THE LEVEL SETS!
That Toei remaster ain’t sounding too bad, either.
I would love if they finished the level sets, that would be better
Toei remasters won't have subs tho
The dragon boxes were released albeit for a short time, but I would be ecstatic if they finished the level sets, that saiyan saga one they released was a huge tease
Scattered Collector Dude the level sets were stunning, better than dragon boxes. I would love for them to release the rest of it. I doubt it tho, maybe for the 50th anniversary lol
SSJ_skylab I saw what the level sets brought and was disappointed that they had this awful thought to discontinue them. They could have continued it and released GT and the original series too
This show is 30 years old and still no effort on remasters🤦🏾♂️
Preaching to the choir brother
@John J Keaveney Overpriced? 🤔 They're only $25 per set with the Funimation discount
Funimation know no shame. Really, really wish some other company would take over the distribution rights because Funi clearly don't care as long as they can shat out these lazy releases, and the masses don't seem to care.
All I ask is one, ONE release with some love and care put into it. Is that really asking that much?
As long as it ain’t harmony gold
If they gave dragon ball to a different company how would they move Chris sabat and sean shemmel to the new company? People may hate them right now but Sean and Chris as goku and Vegeta are just as if not possibly even more inconic than the Japanese goku.
Viz media/manga entertainment could do the remastering
@@ggamesgarner8027 Ocean>>>
@@majidaljaburi7870 Viz is terrible for remasters too apparently.
I literally had these sets in my checkout, then I watched this video and deleted them
If this was Level set quality, I would gladly pay $60 a episode at this point.
Update- I don’t know how I wrote episode. I meant $60 a season.
Fr
Don't give them ideas!
I'm so over Funimation, they're just trolling the fans now. Keep those Dragon Boxes ppl!
I only managed to get the first season
Nathan Skywalker I ended getting all of mine at the same time . I had the 1st and 3rd box, but sold that to buy it as an entire set. I thought it would end up being too expensive if I bought it individually
The Saiyan's should have won and kill Frieza and protect their own planet.
What if the Saiyan's survived and won against Frieza and his men and Gine which is bardock's wife and also Fasha become princesses like Saiyan Disney princess type in a big fat gypsy princess puffy wedding dresses for the grand ball and for for the wedding because they are Saiyan princesses like a Disney Princesse?
Do you guy's to see Fasha and Gine dressing up as princesses an a big fat gypsy princess puffy wedding dresses for the grand ball and for the wedding because they are Saiyan princesses like a Disney Princesse?
How do you guy's agree with that idea that Fasha and Gine dressing up as princesses?
They've been trolling fans since they first acquired distribution rights in the states.
What about us younger fans? I don't have $3000 to put down on owning all the Dragon Boxes, and even if the new steelbook BRs have a lazy form of remaster, $350 to own a 4:3 version of DBZ seems like a good deal to me. Sure, I'd prefer to own a renewed Dragon Box or Level Set even if it costs twice as much, but what if the Toei DBZ remaster gets cancelled, and the steelbooks which literally say limited edition on them are discontinued while waiting for the Toei release? Then the only accessible release for DBZ would be the 2014 Blu-Rays, which I own and we all know are dog shit.
Funimation is crazy thinking they can get away with this again
They will
The most powerful force in all of history... NOSTALGIA!
ofcourse they can ;) sheep always will support them
Until people stop buying them, they can and will get away with it over and over again.
As long as fans keep buying this fucking shit, they will continue doing it.
I really need to replace my orange bricks but man this ain’t it.
I own the orange bricks as well and as much as I want the blu rays, but this aint it... especially the breaking up Frieza Saga - that annoys me the most
You should have got the Dragon Boxes.... When they were affordable. Glad I got them years ago.
Or you can just torrent.
Dr. Wiki collector is on my name ... that’s what I do: collect. I do NOT torrent
I'll just stick with my bluray season sets for the moment.
Not supporting anything the lunatics at Funimation do, but hope you enjoy it whoever does.
But they're the only Japanese to English company

@@Red-Robin2011 i agree but on average there voice actors aren't nearly as good as funumation much as I hate to say it.n

Lol. I watched the whole series on SaiyansWatch back in the day.
Dbztv gang
DbzZone for me
Where's it at nowadays? I use to be on DBZtv and SaiyanWatch too
@@m92sneak_37 ikr, I miss them sites cause it was a great way to rewatch the whole series.
@@kolak2883 same bro i miss those days so much im so sad that the site got deleted for some reason
I really hope this Toei Remaster is good Give justice to my childhood show
Isn’t this just the same garbage watercolor DNR, “4:3” remaster that was the 30th Anniversary collector’s Edition?
@ArjenRobben Mr.Wembley Yeah, every DBZ release from Funimation always includes the US broadcast(Faulconer) audio.
Not gonna happen, it's Toei.
The value of DBZ blurays has depreciated so much it's not even worth coughing at.
Why release this lol......just greed....the orange bricks in steel books thats it.....always wanted the OG Japanese Blue and yellow sets
Nostalgia = Money
I have the entire orange bricks and I always say those are Elite. But I do wanna collect another special edition set of the series, why do you guys recommend?

@@alandiaz46 honestly I'd like to know also.....I guess once a proper remaster is released Geekdom will let us know lol.....but I really want a Box set of Dragonball Super!
We don’t need steel boxes, bundle cases. What we need is a collector set that has all 9 season. 7 dics are inside replica dragon balls, 1 disc in a dragon ball radar replica, and one in a fly nimbus. That all sit on a nice platform that cause all of them to glow like your making a wish. Boom you’re welcome.
Where are my Dragon Ball & Dragon Ball GT Blu Rays?!
exactly!

Why can't we just get those Toei remasters already 😔
They could've shown Frieza's 4 different forms on the 4 discs. But no, they chose to show his final form on 3 discs and his 3rd form on 1 disc
What I really want is a remaster of the whole series, including OG Dragon Ball and the early movies
Just when Funimation couldn't get any worse.
Dragon ball Z gets re-released more than Skyrim does
Todd Howard is secretly in charge of Funimation

really made a video quick, thats awesome. i am disappointed about the lack luster remasters tho
sidenote: they misspelled their spelling of frieza on the box n that kills me 💀💀
I wish they’d re-release the Dragon boxes. I bought them when they first came out but had to sell them because of medical bills. Don’t regret why I did it but oh, I miss them. So I’d so love to be able to get them again...
Might as well just torrent them. The Dragon Box Dvds are still being released in Japan in single sets (without subs).
Funi could release them, but they don't, so don't feel obliged to play by their rules.
Damn Americans and their paid healthcare.
I can relate because healthcare is paid here in the Philippines too, which is ironic since we are one of the poorest countries in Asia and we are mostly 30 years behind on technology.
I am jealous of the UK with their free healthcare.
Bad move dude.
DBZ over health.
Get them while you can. Waiting for my volumes 1 2 3 5 6 7 to come
I feel betrayed and I don't even care- fair play Funimation- i don't even give a sh*t- they know that fans will eat up their shit as long as it has that iconic *"Ƶ"*
I don't feel bad for them, they had all the information about the 'remaster' work done onto them, but still bought them.
Its not even a bad set lol if you're not a film student you'd barely notice anything with the video.. works out less than £1 an episode, but somehow I've been ripped off to the next dimension? What a crap joke.
@@fazman72 "Barely notice the difference". Wait what are comparing in this statement, because I think its pretty obvious the difference between this release and the dragon box or even the level sets. But compared to the 30th anniversary, this and the 30th are exactly the same.
I bought the Anniversary it’s not that bad ....
@@PerfectSuperSaiyan dude it is, especially since they marketed it has "the ultimate way to watch DBZ" (they've literally said that for ever release they done). Have you seen the original animation cells/genga or even the dragon boxes, which are derived from the original animation film, and seen how badly Funimation treated the visuals? Dude u literally bought the 2014 blurays that they did but, instead they just cut their already cropped 16:9 season sets to 4:3 and sold it you because they took advantage of your nostalgia.
But yes it isn't as visually bad as the orange box, but it wasn't worthwhile either, especially not for the 30th anniversary for an Anime as important and popular as DBZ. Dude this fandom has it literally the worst out of any anime. They are older shows and less popular shows that get better home releases than us, even from Funimation.
At this point, saying "get the Dragon Boxes" is utterly useless because they're out of print and they go for insane prices, so unless you're willing to spill thousands upon thousands of dollars for them, you're stuck with the Blu-Rays.
Personally, I'd love if we had a level set remaster blu-ray box set for Dragon Ball, DBZ and their movies. Because even if DBZ gets the perfect Blu-Ray release, that still leaves me with Dragon Ball on DVD and movies in cropped widescreen blu-rays. How and why they feel the need to tinker around with the footage for this one god damn franchise is beyond me. Everything else is released in its original screen format, but DBZ just HAS to have cropped images.
Standard treatment>>>>>>>>>>whatever passes for "special treatment" where this franchise is concerned, and double standards for DB/Z have _always_ been terrible.
Another one? Ugh, here we go again.
The milking is real ya'll. Stay safe out there.
I just want a new release with the Bruce Falconer intro/outros like from Toonami so that I don’t have to collect 80+ dvd singles to get that authentic childhood experience again
Won't work with the footage.
I just want a release of z where the grain is kept in and it's in true 4:3. The 30th anniversary edition I heard they just took the cropped image from the blu Ray's from 2014 and put it in 4:3.
That's definitely not what happened. It's a new, better looking remaster. The 30th anniversary is almost entirely the original 4:3 release, however the first episode was cropped due to the fact that Funimation's film of the first episode is damaged. People like geekdom threw a fit over one episode being cropped. Which is kind of unfair.
Grain removal isn't bad: It CAN be done well, and grain itself after all is just a arfacte/flaw of the production process. It's just funimation keeps being lazy and uses super automated, super strong grain removal that also wipes way detail rather then being careful about it and doing manual touchups.
MajoraZ Look at Kai,grain removal can be done right
Icarus Kid yeah or rerelease the Dragon Boxes but on blu ray WITH the Faulconer score included and while you’re at it let the fans give you the damn original audio masters instead of having us listen to the compressed mono sound.
@@ericstaples7220 i have the steelboxes, it may be the same 4:3 aspect ratio but it's stil cropped, not as heavy as the first episode though
Last time I was this early Frieza was still dead
That Freeza misspelling tho LMAO 😂
So I bought the Steelbook blu-rays simply because I’ve accepted that I will never own the Dragon Boxes in my life-time and as I was watching the discs on my screen, I went to my computer to look up and compare footage from the Dragon Box sets of DBZ and footage from Dragon Ball Kai for double checking. From I can tell, yes the Steelbook blu-rays are cropped, but not by much. If anything, it’s kind of like the blue bricks for Dragon Ball where the footage is a bit cropped compared to the Dragon Box sets for Dragon Ball, but it’s not too bad. The coloring and shading doesn’t offend me that much, although there was a frame where Napa’s right eye was completely gone and that wasn’t pretty to see. All in all, it’s a fine alternative to the previous blu-ray season sets and especially the orange bricks DVDs.
Leave it to Funimation to once again screw over fans with their DB Physical releases. They continue to not listen to the criticisms. I'll wait for Toei's remasters.
You'll be waiting forever. No such thing.
Haha this is hilarious, another DBZ release, they could at least try another series like the original DB, GT, or IDK Super, not another Z release. Hell even Yo son Goku and his friends return, I'd love to see that dubbed in a steel book, but nope, just another Z release.
From what I heard Funimation can't get the license to dub Yo Son Goku.
For a DBZ release I’d like to see a good 4:3 aspect ratio with no grain removal,good audio and a true uncut dub
WTF, the shirts are so much $30 bucks for a cheap design and material
Shit costs money dude. Just because you're used to paying walmart prices doesn't mean that's the real cost of shit in America. If everything you bought were American made and supported your neighbor then T-shirts would be 30 bucks and up. The cheap products and labor from china has you spoiled as fuck. Truth be told we're all too used to having non-stop access to cheap goods. It's not going to last. Gonna have to get used to paying more for less. Not saying the shirts are American made but its priced to support a person who lives there and has an American cost of living. If you wanna support walmart and its shareholders then go shop there. If you wanna support the channel then cough up 30 bucks.
@@notsogreatsword1607 thanks for saying it. I bought one. Paid the same price for my brolymonkey tee that i bought from rooflemonger's merch shop, and i am happy with that one. And i expect i will enjoy this one as well, as soon as it arrives. I highly reccomend any fan should check it out too.
God damn. Tell your mommy to raise your allowance if you think it's too much to afford.
@@notsogreatsword1607 Nope. You do realize t shirts on tee spring cost like 8 dollars to make right? And everything over that is profit to the designer. Not to mention teespring has terrible quality materials but every content creator uses them because of the profit margins. Places like teepublic are leagues better but only pay you like 4 bucks a shirt.
Everyone: How many do we have to teach you this lesson old man!?!
Toei: Money
Funimation: you show be watching
Me: do you take me as a fool?
Damn I’d love a remaster of DB and GT over constant Z releases.
I would too. At this point, I'd take DVD Dragon Boxes of DB and DBGT. I don't understand why they are ignored.
TheReelSketchman because the general audience only knows dragon ball by the Z title. They are far more likely to make a sale on another Z release from a few people who haven’t seen it before just because they know about dragonball z. That’s why we keep getting the Z story in games instead of the full story as well as why the games are always titled Dragon ball fighterZ and DBZ Kakarrot. It’s what sells the most which is still no excuse to fuck over the other old series that don’t look to great today compared to the upscaled Z’s and Kai.
i wouldn't. from what i recall, they actually didn't fuck around too much with the blue and green boxes, but they probably WOULD screw up the quality if they resold either DB or GT on blu-ray.
Funimation sounds like EA and madden
They basically are the Ea of dragon ball except people still like the series people are starting to not like madden
I wish they could re release the Dragon Boxes but that’s a pipe dream at this point😔
Damnit. Why. Why. All I ever seen is the orange box set. But everyone says they are not good. So I’ve been waiting for an official remaster for 15+ years 😭😭😭😭 Please Toei give us a proper remaster 😭😭😭😭🦁
I'm still going to be holding onto my Dragon Boxes for the foreseeable future, as it appears FUNi just can't seem to get it right and put out a non DNR'ed and oversaturated edition of DBZ.
Last time I was this Early Goku was still an earthling.
I own the blu ray set of the 16 x 9 aspect ratio one . I know the picture have been reduced or chopped but I still enjoyed it. Especially on my 75" tv. I wont buy another set until they release it on a 4k level . We ALL HAVE TO STOP buying their repetition garbage. We're better than that. We have to hurt them financially for them to understand, no more. We are here to support Dragon ball but not like this.
Can they stop re-releasing DBZ & Re-release Kai?
Why? Kai is just fine or at least I’d like to think so
@@Doom5000 because we got enough dbz sets
Why rerelease Kai? It’s already on DVD and Blu-Rays, both uncut and 4:3
@@Sqautter If that's the case, we need a Dragon Ball remaster. Not Kai.
@@DrWiki-po1hk there you go
You guys have no idea how good you have it. I bought the entire DB/DBZ/GT and all the movies off of a bootleg site called 24star Dragonball. They were fan subs on VCD. Bad audio that wasn't always synced and some poor video quality as well. Still loved watching them all.
Maybe Funimation also got jealous of Mill Creek Entertainment with the Ultraman Blu Ray Steelbooks and decided "Hey, we can do the exact same thing but without any of the quality!" That's just my theory anyways.
Edit: Not gonna lie though, the Steelbooks themselves look pretty damn cool
This is why I prefer to collect the movies rather than the series.
It’s insane to me that they advertised the 30th anniversary set as a once in a lifetime release, and then they quickly released these. I wish they would loose the dragon ball license.
Guess I'm holding onto my Dragon Boxes then. I knew they were gonna do this, take that supposedly "limited edition" 30th Anniversary set and break it off into separate releases. It was only a matter of time. I feel bad for those who bought that set in the hopes it was actually limited. Screwed over once again. Also $60 for a steelbook? That's a god damn ripoff.
Personally I'd just recommend saving your money and wait for Toei's ACTUAL remaster of the series. Because that release is going to become the NEW Dragon Box.
Yeah, FR. I think I'll wait for Toei's remasters, too. I just hope they are uncensored. I'm also waiting for someone to do a fan project where they take Toei's HD masters and sync the original broadcast audio for all 508 episodes (spanning across all three animes) together. If Star Wars fans can find ways to restore the theatrical cuts, I don't see why that approach couldn't work with the entire Dragon Ball saga. Only time will tell.
I thought there is a uncut version of the manga
Still waiting on that Dragon Ball Blu-ray
Doesn't ultimately matter. Dragon Ball has sadly sort of ran its course and been bled dry. All of these decades-old franchises are just starting to feel long in the tooth. Whether you are talking about Star Wars, Star Trek, Godzilla, Dragon Ball.....this stuff just feels completely milked at this point.
Every new iteration is like a somewhat weaker re-hash of something we've had before, but done in a more flashy way.
Sequel Trilogy is a flashy, inferior rehash of the original trilogy. SO many elements of Super just felt like flashy, less creative re-visits of popular elements of Z.
We're in an age now where I get much more value, entertainment, and reward from being a My Hero Academia fan than I ever got from being a Dragon Ball fan, unfortunately. That candle has pretty much burned out.
Anyone else come to geekdom for his blessing before spending money on anything dragonball? Thanks for always giving it to us straight 👍🏼👊🏽
What is the different about this why they don’t make Dragonball and dragon ball gt on blue ray for the first time I Ben waiting for that
Funimation doesn't have access to film prints of DB and GT, they have digitapes, which are standard definition. Putting them on a Blu Ray wouldn't help because the footage is natively in a potato resolution.
Is Frieza's name supposed to be misspelled on the back of the purple cover? Because it's correct on the orange one.
I have a theory on why it's taking Toei a long time in releasing they're Blu-Ray Masters other than it being done frame by frame, I think it's possible that they're making deals in order to possibly gain access to the broadcast audio for each episode, even though it's just a theory that's something I'm personally hoping for and maybe that's just wishful thinking
Why do you want that? No shade, just asking.
Grea Blood I think you should watch AnimeAjay's video for more details but to put it short, I really want to watch the OG Japanese DBZ but with clear audio instead instead of it being muffled and static like what we got with the official releases
Didn't Toei lose that
Do you mean they'd be negotiating with the guy that preserved them?
@@SK91NO yes that's what's he's saying. Also are the remasters still not out?
Toei is doing absolutely nothing of the sort.
The only thing that would make a new set worth it is if they included the original broadcast quality Japanese audio. Toei did that for Sailor Moon.
Wtf... why can’t we just get the level sets or blue ray of dragon boxes.. fk this bs
I would like to see a release of the original Dragon Ball where the box is based on the old manga volumes from back then.
Jesus christ this is coming out again how many times do they have to release this dam series , like seriously why not put dragon ball on bluray
Thanks for the heads up. FUNIMATION really needs to get their act together.
Just finish the damn Level Sets already, Funimation.
I don’t want it to be but I think this might be one of the last home media releases because of the rise of digital.
(Although I hate streaming)
I’m so tired of DBZ releases anyway. Where the hell is Dragon Ball and Dragon Ball GT on Blu-ray? And how about some actual season sets for Super because 12 episodes for $35 is insane.
@ Geekdom101 3:49; when can we expect the DBZ Toei Remaster to be released, will it have a image/scan frame be as large as possible like the levels sets, who is your source on this, what is the title of your old video talking about this Toei DBZ Remaster?, will it contain the broadcast audio recorded by K17 or kaizenshuu User "Kei17" THANKS
I get so tired of the so called "Dragon Ball Elite" looking down their nose at us peasants for enjoying the products that are released for the manga and anime that we love. I've seen several TH-camrs and forum mods saying that these steelbooks are just the 2013 Blurays in 4:3 aspect ratio. That's untrue and completely misleading. As a matter of fact, after watching the entire first steelbook set, I can say that the only episode that was missing picture info was the first one. After that, it was in true 4:3 aspect ratio and in some scenes it was less cropped than the Almighty Dragon Boxes. I remember when the aspect ratio was the only thing everyone cared about. Now that they've essentially put out a version that has corrected that, it's bad because the sky isn't green, the grain isn't grainy enough, the colors are too much like colors, and there's not enough black lines. I don't get this community. I honestly believe that the Dragon Ball community would complain and whine about any and everything.
Look, if you're a "casual fan" whatever the hell that means, and you want to watch the series as you remember it from Cartoon Network with the music you remeber and such, then this release is for you. It's not cropped, and it's amazing to watch. If you even want to watch in Japanese then this release is for you. It doesn't have the Japanese title cards so I guess that's another reason to crap on it, but it gets the job done. Plus, the cases are beautiful and look amazing.
Still not worth $60
@@ajaxmaxbitch Nope, but they're worth $40. Which is what I paid for each individual one. BTW, seasons 1-6 of this set are getting hard to find and most of them go for more than $60 now.
This set is amazing.
@@SSJ2Phenom I'm glad I grab these as they were coming out. I even sold my 2013 season set blu rays to get these sets. Yes they're not perfect but they're much better then the orange bricks and the season sets
$350 was a bargain for the 30th anniversary edition of DBZ because it had way more limited edition stuff
I would like to see a 4K Edition of DBZ with no cropping whatsoever and original film grain with no fake grain added. I would like to project that through my projector as if it was the film itself.
Why must they deny us? They know what we want, what we deserve, and they refuse.
What the fanbase deserves? Idk, they seem to know about that considering what a lot of the fanbase is.
I really wish they would put dragon ball and GT ON bluray already
Man, I would LOVE a Dragon Box release of Dragon Ball and GT!
WTF, they even mispelled Frieza as "Freiza" on the backside of that box. These better be placeholder images.
The 30th anniversary release was exaggerated by fans who called it bad. People expect a perfect release, but deny that the original film the show is printed on has been damaged. You can't get a perfect release that doesn't attempt to remaster it.
Can we please get a proper sub, ratio, grain, and resolution in one set? Just once 😂
Funimation why can’t you just listen and just give us DBZ with actual true 4:3, with grain intact, in addition with the 3 audio tracks (English with US music, English with Japanese music, and Japanese), add some good bonus content, and have them all available separately and/or in a whole pack? How hard is that to do?!
Please keep in mind
their voiceovers use voices that flatten the characters to the point where most people don't know them,
the context changes double down on the flattening,
they can't even count past 20 ( /watch?v=xFK7mDVqOlg ),
they got rid of a least-objectionable voice actor,
and
they're happy to keep using a guy who knows so little about Goku that he thinks he's the actual Goku despite destroying the character entirely.
*You're not going to get an actual remastery of Dragon Ball Z.*
Just as a side note, I wanna say the blue and green brick sets are close enough to perfect as DVD releases (if you ignore funimation's shitty voiceovers). I wouldn't bother worrying about getting another release there. They've got the actual original 4:3, grains, colors, and Japanese audio. The only shortcomings would be the occasional censorship (like Bulma's nipples being blocked by a glare on the window when Yamucha unintentionally peeks in on her taking a shower).
Im a hardcore dragon ball collector. That being said, I didn't buy that godawful release last year, and I'm not buying this God awful shit this year. Either make a perfect release like they got in Japan or stop trying to sell me the same shit over and over and calling it a remaster. Cutting off 1/3 of the image and putting a filter doesn't make it a remaster. I've seen bootleg dvds with higher quality than what these ass hats make
Rasing my hand saying yes hardcore collector when it comes to steelbook lol
Damn?? It’s been a year since these were announced??? I remember watching this last year and thinking this is a terrible idea
0:17 I consider myself more of a Buu when it comes to being 4XL.
Thanks for the update and you are doing your fans a service for keeping us informed.
I just spent $30 ordering Manga Entertainment’s DBS Broly now I’m going to have to spend another $150 buying a region free blu ray player just to watch DBS on my TV again as I saw it in theater’s. It should not cost this must and be this hard to watch a movie I already saw on the big screen yet Funimation makes that way. Seriously WTF do they want to encourage people to pirate?!
My favorite release is the Kai blu-ray set released in parts. Some of them are a bit of expensive but they did a damn good job on it.
And watch them never release season 6 and up because of low sales.
That misspelling isn't necessary on the physical edition, could just be a digital image mistake
Are you serious about the series being remastered by Toei? if so, would you recommend selling the dragon boxes in anticipation of dropping value?
Just because Geekdom says something is happening, doesn't mean it is. For whatever reason, they could get cancelled before release, or it could be Japanese only.
My recommendation would be to either copy the Dvd files onto a hard drive, or torrent the files, then sell the Dragon Boxes anyway.
Damn I was gonna get this thinking it was going to be a good release
I still dont own an official release of a full set of DB/ DBZ and I reFUSE to pay that price, especially for ONE FUCKING SEASON ARE YOU FUCKING KIDDING ME!?
These baffoons are milking this crap for DECADES!!! Omg!!!! Enough already. I haven’t bought a single crap of dbz releases since i got my dragon boxes….. seriously 😒
And I’m here, waiting for original Naruto to be remastered and released on blu ray.
I need to start collecting my Naruto sets...
It really blows my mind that these steelbooks are selling on eBay for hundreds of dollars. 🥴
Damn they're out of print already 😮
Funimation failed again. Funimation/Toei did not restore the original color and necessary grain to given DBZ the presentation it deserves like the Dragon Boxes. The 4:3 aspect ratio in these sets is still not precise and zoomed in a bit too. Save your money. Shame on Funimation. These sets after sets all b.s.. money making schemes.
I am planning on getting the Dragon Box sets soon, but who’s knows? Maybe the Blu-Ray Steelbooks will actually be like the Dragon Boxes or the Level Sets. I might be wrong, but just let me not give up hope for now, okay? I’ll just have to wait and see just in case.
It isn't.
@@rafaundisputedgoat2024 I was unfortunate to find that out. Funimation, why you gotta be so stoopid?
@@GabePickles3837 Honestly, just buy a HDD and put iKaos' release from nyaa on it, it has like 6 audio option and the best footage possible out there. Much better than all this crap from funimation.
@@rafaundisputedgoat2024 I’d rather not because of the slow download speed due to the huge file size and my crappy internet, I already have some USB storage so I don’t think I need anymore, and I’m just not interested in downloading torrents. Yeah, I know it’s not too much of a hassle (Except for buying more storage), but I just prefer home video for this kind of stuff. Sorry, but it’s the Dragon Boxes for me.
What’s the best way to own the Dragon Ball Z/ Kai BluRay?
