Everyone on the internet is buzzing about how incredible the new Teargarden by Kaleidyscope album is, so I finally decided to see how they actually sound live:

And honestly? I am just completely floored. 🙂🙂🙂

I NEED A CONCERT TICKET RIGHT NOW!

Maybe try checking here:

I started out watching it on Cartoon Network, so I got pretty used to the English dub, but hey, I actually don't mind the German version either. It works for me! 🙂

Betty Myers7 said:But isn't this one already following the Z style?😲

Bear with me, I’m a bit out of the loop here, so someone please enlighten me.😁

Are we going to see that creepy old man, Yamcha, Tien, Chiaotzu, Vegeta, or Bulma?🤣

Will there be any Super Saiyans? Is Trunks going to show up? Will Krillin finally get some hair? 🤣
Will we see 🤣Broly?

The old guy will be there but he won't be quite that perverted; you'll get a blue-haired, ugly version of Yamcha, plus Tien, Chiaotzu, no Vegeta, and yes, Bulma...

Honestly, people, if you actually want an entertaining movie with characters that aren't a total disaster, just watch that old classicDragonball : The Magic Begins (Xin qi Long Zhu shen Long de Fu Shou)

Who even cares anymore:

Raymond Newman said:From the perspective of someone who hasn't followed Dragonball Z closely, the Dragonball movie actually holds up quite well; while I can recite most of the episodes from memory, my mind wasn't even drifting toward the original Dragonball storyline while I was watching the film.

Well, speaking from that exact same standpoint, I still think the movie is absolute garbage... the acting? Pathetic. The humor? Gone in two seconds. Action? Zero points. Tension? Absolutely nothing. It’s only any good if the viewer is six years old.🤷

Raymond Newman said:This movie is absolutely fantastic, and if I may be so bold, Chi-Chi is looking quite stunning in her own way 😁

😲 I really hope that was just sarcasm 😂
because if it isn't, then what on Earth makes you think it’s actually good? (absolute clown behavior)

bluebison8 said:Let’s be honest: all these battles against non-Saiyan opponents are just plain stupid. Every single one of Goku's enemies just shows up out of nowhere, already maxed out. There is zero backstory, zero buildup. While we get a front-row seat to how Goku achieves his new power levels, everyone else is just handed theirs. The internal logic of this universe is completely broken.

And don't even get me started on those ridiculous dragons in GT. Those Dragonballs were basically created by a bunch of idiots, considering Goku bypassed their entire power scale the moment he became a Super Saiyan. He spent all that time learning how to multiply his strength by 2x, 3x, or 4x, and then suddenly, the dragons from those balls are supposedly strong enough to rival him?
Give me a break.
Every fight after the Super Saiyan era feels like the work of some hyper-obsessed geek author who probably hasn't spoken to a woman in his entire life.

I don't follow you at all 😕
To me, everything is perfectly logical and tightly woven together. They always throw in a retrospective, right? Like, when Trunks arrives, you finally learn everything about the androids and how they came to be. And Frieza is a totally logical progression from the Saiyan Saga since you find out Vegeta was actually his soldier/underling...
Besides, the backstories of how they gained that much power aren't even necessary. That would just be useless filler episodes that would bore the audience to death... You have plenty of info on him: he's a super powerful alien conquering planets, building armies from the locals, and trying to rule the entire universe. He wants those Dragonballs because he's terrified someone stronger will show up... It's a perfectly logical story...

briskbison41 said:Look, GT isn't quite on the same level as the Z saga, but it’s still decent enough—mostly just because I'm into the future transformations and those fresh fight sequences. My one real gripe is how short the run is; there just aren't enough episodes to really sink into. But hey, who knows... maybe a brand new series would actually turn out better than GT ever did.
We might never know for sure.

Hmm, honestly, I can't stand that part. It feels so ridiculous having this endless stream of transformations. Even back in the Buu saga, that Super Saiyan 3 thing—you know, the one where they get that absurdly long hair and lose their eyebrows? It was way too much. And don't even get me started on those fusion dances... it's just silly. I mean, it doesn't drive me crazy right now, but still, I absolutely love Dragon Ball Z.🙂
As for GT, I thought it was incredibly stupid how Goku turned back into a kid again. Plus, those space adventures felt way too childish, like some knock-off version of Pokémon or something... 🤷
Oh, and I also noticed they totally changed the art style! For example, Trunks looks completely underwhelming in GT, and honestly, everyone looks like a cheap plastic action figure with that weird, tacky shine on them...

briskbison41 said:So, all this editing and tweaking is basically just an attempt to make the show match the manga...
For a 20th anniversary, they really could have gone bigger—like launching an entirely new series—but whatever, I guess this will do...

Honestly, though? I think trying to launch a whole new series would be overkill. Just look at what happened with GT...

briskbison41 said:It feels like a reworked version of the Z series, though they’ve played around with the episode order a bit.

Look, everything was clearly laid out in the link from my previous post, so why does nobody ever actually read anything around here? Seriously, why?!

Dragon Ball Kai is an anime series that is an HD remaster and recut of Dragon Ball Z done for its 20th Anniversary.

They chopped out all those filler episodes to bring it down to about 100 episodes, bumped the aspect ratio up to 16:9, and even fixed the dialogue so it actually stays true to the manga...

I thought I’d drop this here, just in case anyone was hunting for a reliable way to stream Dragon Ball Kai; this link seems to be working perfectly fine if you’re looking to dive into the series 🙂

Wait, what am I even looking at here? Is this some fan-made project or is it an official release?

Ugh... 😢
What a disaster... just a completely warped retelling, zero action, and a plot that goes absolutely nowhere... plus the acting? Don't even get me started. That guy playing Yamcha was just painful to watch—so cringey. And those hair strands? Honestly, how do you even call that styling? It looked pathetic.
