DBZ Remake

[Piper Juunanagou]

Apparently they're remaking/remastering Dragonball Z for its 20th anniversary. I won't go over the whole idea, but apparently they're condensing it to 100 episodes with redone effects and stuff for HD.

Sounds pretty chill to me. Figured I would share it. There's a link below or you could google search it.

So it'll only take seven episodes to charge the spirit bomb instead of an entire season? :p

[James]

It might be my desire to see a well executed fight like the ones later on in the series, but I hope it done to something along the lines of what Hellsing did with OVA.

I will never dislike the Chi Chi and Bulma scenes. They both just make me piss my pants laugh everytime.

[Rem-13]

Oh so they are done rerereleasing and are back again?

Eh, looks alright. I always said some editing could make the series 150% better, but I don't see them putting a lot of effort into it.

[Josh]

I'd like it better if they re-drew the entire series, because DBZ had a lot of scene recycling and there were three different animation teams two of which made me cry.

[John Doe]

New opening and ending? 100 episodes? HD? Wah?

[Pinky]

there were three different animation teams two of which made me cry.

You and me both. ;_;

[Vad]

You and me both. ;_;

Yeah I noticed that. The Goku Vs Cell one and most of the Buu Saga one were the best by far. Made them look the best. Of course theres the random episode right before Goku starts the final battle with Kid Buu where they are trying to get Bulma to kiss Old Kai. Vegeta goes ape shit on Goku with a huge ass head and mouth. Totally different style there...

=(

This will bring a new generation of DBZ fans to the site.

This has my support.

What's the odds on that happening? I would fucking love that.

Actually there is a very good chance of that happening, but probably not until the 40th anniversary. Dragonball is legendary in terms of manga, it's one of the "Golden Age" manga's from Shounen Jump. It's to manga what Spider-man is to marvel comics, Toriyama is legendary he's like one of the kings. Like Yoshihiro Togashi and Rumiko Takashi they are what all current manga artists aspire too much like those guys probably aspired to the god of manga- Osamu Tezuka.

[Rem-13]

I'm calling it right now, 2053 Dragonball/z 'reboot'

Remember I said it when it comes out.

[Super Buu]

fuckin A

[Saz]

Huh. I could have sworn I made a post about how I never noticed any differences between drawing styles when I used to watch DBZ. How very odd.

[Belle Hibiki]

If you didn't notice a difference in drawing and animation between some of the endlessly looped shit in the Cell Games and the fight between Majin Vegeta and Goku... ... ...

What?

Anyway, a redraw would be fucking amazing with some of the animation techniques they have out there today.

[Kaden]

the god of manga- Osamu Tezuka.

Astro Boy is my hero.

[Ander]

You can always tell when they were running low on their animation budget. Out of the three animation teams, I prefer the first one the most. To me, they paid a little more attention to detail than the rest of them.

[Pinky]

It was painfully evident pretty early on in the series. The first time where it stood out like a punch to the face was probably the time that Goku became the golden warrior.

This clip cuts out junk and splices one episode into the next, so go to 6:00. At 6:25 the third-string animation team takes over for the next episode. Maybe it was harder to notice if you only watched one new episode every week, but when you're watching it back-to-back like this you get the full punch-in-the-face effect. A similar event happens during the Cell Games, with first-string animators doing the No More Rules episode followed by some of the shittiest animation ever. It's usually not so pronounced, and the farther back you go the more difficult it is to see, but it's definitely there.

If they don't reanimate the whole series, the least they could do is reanimate the shitty parts.

Edit: Apparently Rem-13 already posted this in another thread.

Fuck.
