Daizenshuu EX - The Podcast: Episode #0256 Apr 24, 2011

Show notes

Episode #0256! VegettoEX, Meri, Julian, and Hujio discuss the second chapter of "DragonBall SD". The sudden extra chapter appears out of nowhere and jumps straight into the Freeza fight (condensing it down considerably), but is it worth it that this spin-off even exists? News tidbits, releases, and your e-mails round out the episode.

Show notes

Episode #0255! VegettoEX and Hujio discuss a little bit of international licensing news and tons of feedback on our "Toriyama's Intended Endings" two-part feature. Scott Melzer and Rich Jarrett from NoN.D.E. Films also stop by to talk about their new fan parody, "Fanboy Soze", a DBZ fan parody that is not a DBZ fan parody!

Daizenshuu EX - The Podcast: Episode #0254 Apr 10, 2011

Show notes

Episode #0254! VegettoEX and Julian discuss the announced sale of FUNimation, a new "DragonBall SD" chapter on the horizon, and all the international "DragonBall Kai" delays. Herms joins us for part two of our discussion about Toriyama's intended endings to the series, this time from the Cell arc through the end of the Majin Buu arc. Did the author ever actually say he wanted to end the series during any point within these two story arcs?

Daizenshuu EX - The Podcast: Episode #0253 Mar 27, 2011

Show notes

Episode #0253! VegettoEX and Meri discuss a few news tidbits (such as the end of the "DragonBall Kai" TV broadcast in Japan) before turning it over to Herms for part one of our look at the "intended endings" to the series. Fans often claim that the author absolutely intended to end the manga with the Freeza story arc, but is this actually true? What evidence exists pointing to specific story arcs that could have served as the ending?

Daizenshuu EX - The Podcast: Episode #0252 Mar 20, 2011

Show notes

Episode #0252! VegettoEX, Meri, Hujio, and Corey are all in-house to discuss what the Hell just happened to "DragonBall Kai". By diving back into corporate presentations and financial reports, we are able to paint a crystal-clear picture of just why exactly the show was "refreshed" in the first place, if their plan even partially came to fruition at all, and what we can expect for the future of the franchise.

Daizenshuu EX - The Podcast: Episode #0251 Mar 13, 2011

Show notes

Episode #0251! VegettoEX, Meri, Julian, and Jeff dive into Volume 38 in our "Manga Review of Awesomeness". The gang is all here with a new set of villains, but is Toriyama truly writing by the seat of his pants, or is the magic still there (in more ways than one)? In the news, Kenji Yamamoto has lost his music composition job for "DragonBall Kai" after years of fans pointing out plagiarism, leaving the end of the series in even more shambles than before.

Daizenshuu EX - The Podcast: Episode #0250 Mar 06, 2011

Show notes

Episode #0250! VegettoEX and Meri briefly cover the raw facts surrounding the upcoming end of "DragonBall Kai" before digging into some quick reviews. Bakuman gets a DBZ cover song, the "Legend of Saiyan" figures pick up right where "Freeza's Force" left off, and "Ultimate Butoden" is the best DBZ video game you're not playing. To celebrate 250 podcast episodes, we are also giving away a copy of the fourth daizenshuu!

Show notes

Episode #0249! VegettoEX and KaiserNeko cover the mostly non-news and March's releases. Herms joins to give an in-depth crash course in "Journey to the West", the Chinese story which served as the initial inspiration for "DragonBall". Two stories from the first TV series directly reference characters and items from its inspiration, and in ways you may never have known!

Daizenshuu EX - The Podcast: Episode #0248 Feb 20, 2011

Show notes

Episode #0248! VegettoEX and Julian cover all the latest news, from crazy release schedules to new prices to online streaming and beyond. Kaboom stops by to talk an on-going fan project to beef up the Bardock TV special, and we give a short first-look at "Ultimate Butoden" for the Japanese Nintendo DS. Releases, e-mails, and a look back at Internet past rounds out the episode.

VegettoEX, Meri, and Julian recap all the big financial news and other shenanigans, as well as answer an e-mail about which in-universe story lines we would like to see expanded with future reference guides. Hujio later joins us to talk about and review the oft-forgotten TV special for DBZ Movie 7, occasionally referred to as the "movie overview special".
