It also beefs up the low end with the LFE. The 5.1 mix does not really fully utilize the surround channels, really only using them for reverberation. Either one offers up clean dynamics and good dynamic range. Score is more active, the Japanese score is more acoustically inclined where the U.S. Some segments in the Japanese score have long stretches of silence where the U.S. Between the two English mixes, there are differences in the musical score that become increasingly obvious as you switch between the two. This latter mix sounds the least compelling of the three, being really claustrophobic and somewhat muffled in sound. Finally there is the original Japanese language version in Dolby TrueHD 1.0. English Broadcast Version in Dolby TrueHD 2.0 Stereo that contains a different musical score. The default selection is English Dialogue with the original Japanese Music in Dolby TrueHD 5.1. There is an unusual mixture of audio option offered on this release, all provided in the lossless Dolby TrueHD format.
There’s no noise apparent and detail is quite strong. Grain in the original image remain, however, and is rather coarse, although it does look film-like. A lot of the source damage has been removed and color timings have been fixed and come across rather vibrant. This series has of course been restored, frame by frame, for release in high definition and it shows. It is certainly a show filled with with an enticing mix of martial arts and science fiction that hits at a rapid pace in every episode, and I guess that’s what the kids enjoy. It has carried on from one generation to the next, as I now have the chance to watch the eleven and twelve-year-olds in my family become Dragon Ball Z fans. The appeal of this series has always been perplexing to me considering nearly every episode and iteration follows the same arc with hardly any character development, but the success of it is impossible to deny. Meanwhile his young son Gohan is discovering his own inner strength. This is the same old series restored, that’s all.įans will already know the basics of the series, Goku battles Raditz and others from his home planet, is killed and must be wished back to life by his friends with the seven dragon balls. Unlike Dragon Ball Z Kai, there’s no reworking of the series, the voice cast hasn’t been brought back to rerecord their parts and there are no new segments. Of course, this is the first time that the original broadcast series will be making its way to Blu-ray. Yes, here is again, folks, another home video release of Dragon Ball Z.
