[up] The broadcast version of the episode had the original DBZ version of the scene, while the On-Demand version has the new DBK version.

There's an obvious difference between the two versions.

[down] I dunno, probably from Toei, ya know how they are against abridgers and what-not.

[down][down] That is true.

Lanipator was still in the broadcast version doing the Krillin voice at the end.

Listen to the voices.

EDIT: That's actually pretty baller they got them to do their characters inside the show itself. It's the closest we'll get to an ascended meme.

I'm impressed it's been years, and Dragon Ball heroes hasn't given Turles some transformation. Who do you think the new masked man is?

Also, young Demigra. Wonder how that happened.

While I'm appreciative, I'm not surprised - Xenoverse made it clear that corporations are starting to realize how popular TFS and DBZA are.

[up][up] Considering that the new Time Breaker is really tall, has a widow's peak and has a design around the chin area on their mask, my best guess is King Vegeta.

[up] Yeah, Funimation has pretty good connections with TFS, it's just Toei who has a problem with 'em.

Its really cool how their doing voices for the game. Pretty funny shit.

That Gohan vs. Lavenda fight was great. He's still got it, he just needs to keep on improving & he'll be just as good as his dad if not better in no time. #Make Gohan Great Again, heheh. tongue

Though damn those Angels are cold. I felt for Beerus & Champa's horror that the angels are gonna survive but their not. Whis & Vados are some cold sons of bitches.

[up] Huh why so?

Toei is dumb, I don't think we need much more explanation than that. They make dumb decisions all the time.

I mean, Dragon Ball Super started out as a collection of poor decisions, looking at the animation...

Toei doesn't like Abridged series since they see them as copyright infringement.

Funimation on the other hand thinks TFS is hilarious.

Toei better not do anything to prevent that being on the DVD release!

I'm near positive there's some parody laws that prevent them from being flat out copyright infringement.

As I understand, TFS doesn't make any direct money off the videos either do they? I mean, that's a big part of what makes copyright infringement an actual thing.

Note that I'm not well verse on these kinds of things, so I'm not really sure.

Toei probably doesn't really care about DBZA one way or the other.

It's probably not malice that's the cause here. Even if they liked them there's probably legal red tape preventing them from using them in official capacities. Copyright law is weird.

[up][up] Yeah, they don't make money from DBZA, most of their revenue comes from either their own personal jobs or from patreon.


Ya know what's fucked up? If it weren't for Goku reminding Zeno about the tournament, at some random point in the near future Zeno could've randomly wiped out Universe 7 without any warning.

Shit he really should have pulled a Rachel Summers & just stay in the past. What a horrible fuck-up Whis inadvertently caused.

They have DMCA'd Team Four Star a few times in the past. I think they got all of those overturned, though.

They didn't just take down their videos, at one point they took down TFS's entire channel. This was when Doug Walker's Where's The Fair Use campaign was trending, and as such it resulted in a massive amount of backlash.

Have you any dreams you'd like to sell?

It'd be cool if the TFS gang got hired for the dub of Super or something.

In fact, could you imagine them voicing the Universe 6 gang?

I don't think that could happen as long as they are still doing DBZA however.

That being said, they've been brought in for both game projects, and even an official dub (although not as the characters they voice in their series) so who knows?

Also, since I was asleep when you guys said this, for those who said I listed all the Saiyan transformations previously, you're acting as if False Super Saiyan, Super Saiyan Grades 2 and 3, Legendary Super Saiyan, Mystic Saiyan, Golden Great Ape, Super Saiyan God, and Super Saiyan Rage don't exist.
