Battle of Gods to Come to 40 Countries- Subbed

On a recent post at dblegends, it has been hinted that Battle of Gods will be screened in over 40 countries across the globe. We are fortunate enough to have Kanzenshuu to translate what Norihito Sumitomo, the composer Battle of Gods, stated on his official website:

さあ、いよいよ「ドラゴンボールZ 神と神」の公開です。子供達は勿論、大人もじゅうぶん楽しめる内容。世界40カ国以上で上映される、まさに地球的規模の作品です。
ぜひ映画館に足をお運び下さい。決して後悔はさせません。サントラも宜しく！！

At last, it’s the opening of Dragon Ball Z: Battle of Gods. The content has plenty to enjoy for children of course, but even adults, as well. It is truly a global-scale work, which (is/will be) shown in 40-plus countries around the world. By all means, please get yourselves out to the theater. You definitely won’t regret it. Please [check out] the soundtrack, too!

Although Norihito Sumitomo hinted at this about a month ago, not many people have this knowledge so this is big news!

Let’s hear your thoughts!

Dragon Ball Kai: Buu Saga Confirmed

It has finally been confirmed that FUNimation is working on the Buu Saga for Dragon Ball Kai. We acquired this information from an interview with Sean Schemmel, the voice of Goku.

Here is the segment from his interview confirming this development:

Tell us about some of the projects you have been involved in. What is your favourite project to date?

“Well of course, the Dragonball series has a special place for me in my heart, but there are other projects that were more “fun” for a number of reasons. Kappa Mikey comes to mind, which was a parody about anime. Recording both the audiobooks “Shit My Dad Says” and “I Suck At Girls” was a total blast to work on because those books are hilarious. But most recently getting to play Batman/Bruce Wayne in the iPad game Batman The Dark Knight Rises by Gameloft was really really thrilling. I consider it a major career highlight. I’m currently working Yugioh Zexal and I am about to finish the Buu saga for DBZ Kai.”

Another statement worth mentioning is one of Kyle Herbert, the voice of adult Gohan.

Kyle Herbert recently posted this on his Facebook page:

Just got the blessing to announce I will be returning as Gohan for the Buu Saga of Dragonball Z Kai. No release or broadcast dates for now. For those who overlooked Kai because of the edits on TV, remember its UNCUT on DVD/blu ray. Pretty psyched to return to the role that began my VO career. Recording in a few weeks.

We are definitely enthusiastic about this new information, are you?

Confirmation Regarding Live Action Film

RobotUnderdog recently released this statement on their website clearing up some possible speculations:

This photo is #3 out of 7 that we will be releasing. We appreciate all the support and feedback that you all have given so far and we look forward to continuing our journey as we lead up to the announcement of our live-action project. We will be announcing our plans on the 7th photo. We cannot tell you too much at this time but we’d like to clear up a few things. Many of you have been asking if we are doing a trailer or trailer series and the answer is no. Our live action project will be an actual project – not a teaser or series.

Additionally – the 7 photos released are not related to the story line that we will be doing for our live-action project. More details will be released soon on that. Until then – we hope you’ve enjoyed the photos thus far and we appreciate all your support. Also – be sure to check out Derek Padula’s site – http://www.thedaoofdragonball.com
