 "Battle of Gods"

Spoiler-Free Synopsis: After a thirty-nine year sleep, Beerus, the God of Destruction, has awoken, and is seeking the "Super Saiyan God" he saw in his dream.

Dragon Ball Z: Rock The Dragon Set Is Coming

 

Three years ago, I caught whiff of a possible English dub for Dragon Ball Z Kai done in the frosty North, by the Sasquatch-breeding Canadians at Ocean Studios. For three years I have waited with bated breath, my eyes opening to the day with fresh hope that the dulcet tones of Doc Harris would course through my ears with "Stand by for Dragon Ball Z… Kai!", only to be struck each day with a sense of unrelenting defeat (moreso than usual). Eventually, I had no choice but to settle into a remarkably steady indifference, puncuated by the occasional glimmer of curiosity (and something somebody in the know told me). read more

Dragon Ball Z: Battle of the Gods Clip

Wow, that looks, moves, and sounds fucking gorgeous. Guaranteed purchase from me when we get it over here. Unf. The only problem I have is that there’s a weird glare, an over saturation of color, I think. It can be a little overwhelming.

I wonder how Kaio got a new planet? This one seems bigger than the previous one. I know that in the notes for the movie, Toriyama said it was Birusu who made Kaio’s previous planet small to begin with because he destroyed most of it and Kaio had to reconstruct it. Now Kaio has a bigger planet and Birusu appears and wrecks it again? What a bad guest. read more

Dragon Ball Z Goku Scene Comparisons

You watch this, you ignorant little shitfucks. I’m not going to say this shit again (today). I’ll show you how to watch this 20 something year old overly long action cartoon for eight year olds the right fucking way (my way). Now, I’ve had these videos up on my YT account for a while, but I wanted to put them here anyway, in case you don’t magically know my account name, because you can’t read my mind (how much more worthless can you be?). Now, to some of you, this is preaching to the choir. If you’re here and you don’t already agree with me on everything (all four of you), you should pay attention. If you do agree with me, sit back down. You’re not getting that third slice of Sarah Lee’s banana cream pie just yet, and keep that Pabst Blue Ribbon away from your laptop, it’ll spill and you won’t be able to angrily fap to incest hentai if it ruins your computer, you festering piles of mule snot. read more
