  Daizenshuu EX - Guides - DVD Guide - DBZ TV Series - Series # 11  
     
 

SERIES # 11
"Great Saiyaman"
 

ORIGINAL RELEASE:
Discs:
57-61 (5 Volumes)
Episodes: 180-194 (Dub) / 195-209 (Japanese)

RE-RELEASE ("Digitally Remastered"):
Discs: Boxset
Episodes: 195-219 English / 195-219 Japanese

Special Note: Boxset-only release

 

Availability:

  • Uncut Bilingual (Box Set Available)
  • "Digitally Remastered" contains cropped widescreen, faux-"remastered" footage with original Japanese, English broadcast audio, and English audio with Japanese musical score
 

The new opening and ending themes ("We Gotta Power" and "Boku-tachi Wa Tenshi Datta," respectively) begin with Japanese episode 200. In the English dub, the opening animation for each is used (edited slightly) with an extended version of the previous dub theme (season four onwards) and the same ending theme (season four onwards).

Continuing onwards with their success from before, FUNimation's "remastered" DBZ Season Seven boxset saw its release to DVD in November 2008. Touted as a complete remastering, this release was produced in a (cropped) widescreen presentation with a "remastering" process by Video Post & Transfer in Texas. Despite FUNimation's claims, the set is indeed cropped (missing approximately 20% of its vertical resolution while only gaining approximately 5% of its horizontal resolution), it is not remastered frame-by-frame from its original film, and the color has been adjusted. Of note is the inclusion of a new audio track, featuring FUNimation's traditional voice track (with minor line alterations where appropriate) played alongside the original Japanese musical score. For more in-depth information on these types of sets, please listen to Episode #0065 of our podcast.
