I started with Z actually, but Dragon Ball also aired on TV when I was a kid so I ended up watching both simultaneously and therefore got to see the "old" and the "new" with an unbiased opinion.

This thread is just something else.

If they are Dutch, upright and breathing they are more racist than your favorite player
If I remember correctly, the big shift in presentation in DBZ was because they hired the Saint Seiya showrunners to handle the show.

Are you telling me Shingo Araki worked on Dragon Ball? or just other parts of the Saint Seiya staff?
Isn't Tien the producer's favorite character?
Like two days ago, they were transmitting a DBZ ep (before the Buu arc) the one where when kid Trunks won the kids tournament}; his next opponent would be Mr. Satan, when The Announcer said that the stadium starts chanting "Satan!"
Thank you Mexican dub <3
It's Gohan. She mentions Tien is also a favorite.

I thought gohan was the producers favorite.
Also why do I get the feeling that we aren't gonna see certain fighters in this game like buuhan and vegito.

Goku's hair is lookin DANK
Is this real? lol
Krillin is just a different way to romazine Kuririn, you lose out the obvious chestnut pun but it's essentially the same thing.
You simply can't get Tien out of テンシンハン (Tenshinhan) nor does Tien preserve the fact that it's a chinese dish.
As for the other dub terms you listed, Buu's acceptable but since I use Oob I may as well use Boo to be consistent.
Frieza is legit wrong. It's freezer, with the last vowel shortened (フリーザ Furiza instead of フリーザー Furizaa), thus Freeza.

M. Bison is the dude in red.
The bears name is Teddie.
Phoenix Wright Ace Attorney.
Joey Wheeler.
Zolo.
Ah, thanks for the correction.
That last one was Zoro in the other English dub though.
(It should really be Zorro though)

Making a big deal of names one way or the other like you absolutely have to be consistent seems to be an English-speaking DB fanbase thing. I don't see it happening as much in other languages even when the names deviate from the Japanese version.
Then again US gaming/anime fandom in general seems to be about that "TOTALLY NOT A WEEB I SWEAR" harder than anyone else.
I am, for some reason, totally okay with those. *shrug*

Yamcha looks sick. Also how did they mess up Goku's hair? Its literally been done the correct way sense Idk, Budokai?
The hair is modeled to be able to make the illusion of his hair from multiple angles. The number of spikes is also meant to be there so when he transforms, his hair is actually correct and not changing from a hair model with 5 big spikes to hair with a lot more. You can see this when he transforms and powers down. The spikes fall into place, but you don't see them when his hair sets down back to black. Because the illusion is being shown in a fixed angle and you won't notice them otherwise. The angle here, plus the wind effect is popping those hidden spikes up. There's not much they can do other than making solid hair models like Xenoverse so it stays the same always, but then it'll look weird for their fluid transformations. Goku's hair is an anomaly itself

Hercule is dumb because it misses the pun on Videl.
