DragonBall Kai
newy:
just watched dbzr's subs.
subs: well, i do not understand jap so i can't say if the translation's correct but the eng looked solid
ep: too bad, it's just remastered to fit WS and HD. wished it would have been redrawn as well. but it's ok... remembering the good old times^^ it's kinda "mean" to see that the animation style of the OP and ED are drawn like at the end of DBZ and to see that the content is the old style. well, so what?^^

I just saw the first episode of Dragonball Kai.
I must say that im quite glad that the the dubs are redone by the same voiceactors, the reuse of old effects, but added new ones. But i didnt like the new music thou.. I kinda liked the good old japanese soundtrack.. Even if it sounds like an LP player without RIAA :)
PS: I don't like english dubs, and when i saw DBZ with english dubs for the first time, i died :P

Personally I am glad they changed to old Japanese soundtrack to make it sound more modern but actually there isn't a great deal of music so far, I hope they use music similiar to that in the dubs.

But they said there won't be fillers....
Which arcs are considered fillers?

I'm guessing there will be no Garlic.Jr saga, maybe not so many epsiodes will be spent on the Z-fighters training and all the random epsiodes here and there like Goku and Piccollo learning how to drive will most definetly be cut :D

Hey, driving school was a funny filler episode. What I want to see gone is the combat filler. Battle against Freeza on Namek took 30 episodes. There's at least one episode where they just trade punches and kicks without any actual effect. Goku starts charging the spirit bomb .. 2 episodes later it's ready.
Also, several episodes' worth of constipated screaming ("powering up"). At worst it's something like half an episode of one guy screaming, stuff floating up, reaction shots of people..
Sometimes they at least try to stop the opponent's super attack, why not interrupt their attempt to power up?

It is basically the original film re-scanned. So far, season 1 has fairly low detail pencil work, but, it still is much better than the DVD rez DBZ.
Once the series made more money, starting at season 2 & even more for season 3, expect season 2-3 of Kai-HD to be twice as sharp & expect season 3-4 onward to be immaculate.
As for it being shorter, it could be both a directive decision as well as the availability of quality prints zoomed out, or, in to 16:9. This may also mean some new expanded scenes to left & right of the original where they were able to do so.
I wonder if someone out there will do a fan-dub audio track from the English DVD. It'll probably take a bunch of audio editing, but, it is possibly feasible.
