    Now, DBZ used to have a lot of fans over here, but its lost many since they took it off the air. So their new tactic is to release the episodes again on DVD, but totally Uncut. As it should have been. For Example, Master Roshi now drinks beer instead of unexplicably foamy water.

    And when Goku dies and falls off the sankeway thing, no more "home for infinite loser"..aka: HFIL. Instead he will be going to h-e-double hockey sticks. Yes, he will. And a numerous number of other extra unedited stuff.

    Plus I hear they re-voice acted the first episodes since they really werent acted by the new staff of voices

    But, my question is this, does anybody have any information on when these will be released?

    The first DVD comes out in the beggining of april. But to tell you the truth, i smell i big rip-off....Why? Because, even thought they have all that bloody gory goodness that they didn't show on the US release, most of us anime buyers like to look at the price of the DVD's. Why do i say this? Because each DBZ Unctud DVD will be pricing at U.S. $39.99 (plus tax). So, let's think this over eh? Is it really worth it? In my opinion, no. I'd rather just not watch it than pay 40 bucks for 4 episodes.

    PS:The $40 price for the DVD was put on Anime Insider in the April/May issue

    'Twould be nice to see the original version, but Seishin's right. It's too expensive. Maybe if they released it in box sets of 50 episodes each for $30 or something. The show simply isn't worth that much.

    They re-dubbed the first episodes? Why? Those episodes had the best voice actors of the whole lot! I liked the first few episodes when they had those voices. (Actually, the series was pretty good up until the beginning of the battle with Frieza) Good enough, in fact, that I may even consider purchasing a few of those DVDs, just to recapture the best moments.

    I think it's still on air in Canada. But I haven't turned my TV on in weeks, except to watch DVDs or play games, so I wouldn't know.

    Friday at 8:30 on YTV, eh?

    If I had a job I would buy those DVDs in a second. Considering that the fans who started out when those first episodes were shown are now at the working age, I think they might make money off of it. But, I agree, they really do overcharge for anime.

    The voices at the beginning were great, really they should redo the voices for the parts where the new voice actors first came in. It took them a while to get it right..

    I think they cancelled Uncut already, they are being re-played on Toonami.
