Thanks for doing this. I completely understand why people were pissed at this release - and it is far from ideal - but this shows that the cropping really isn't that bad.
Cool video, and it's good to see that most of the 30th anniversary edition isn't cropped to death like many people who reported on it when it first was announced would have you believe.
Thanks a lot for uploading this! Have a couple of questions: 1) The 30th anniversary and the seasons sets look really similar from the footage you've shown. Is there any difference between them? How close is the 30th set to the levels sets in terms of grain? 2) The 30th anniversary edition is advertised as 4:3, but there have been complaints/speculation that it's actually a cropped 4:3. Is the aspect ratio really a true 4:3?
The colors are slightly better on the 30th set i can say that from what i can tell post the first few episodes it seems to be true 4:3 the first few episodes are badly cropped 😑
lol You gotta edit your vid, man! Anyway, thanks for the comparison. I’m thinking of getting rid of my Kai and Orange Bricks to get these new steel books (which is essentially the 30th anniversary remasters).
Okay, I'm too late, but if you haven't done it yet, I wouldn't recommend this. 30th Ann Blu Ray is just those season set blu rays but in 4:3, that means they're not good
@@Marco_1505 Yeah, too late, though while I dumped my orange bricks, I ended up keeping Kai. As for the steelbook set, I’m okay with it. A bit over-priced, but definitely a step above those old orange bricks.
So, I see people refer to the 30th anniversary as being a decent alternative opposed to the single dvds and the Dragon Boxes. What I wanna ask is the 30th anniversary collector's edition the one everyone is referring to as being decent, or is it the 30th anniversary sets that appeared in Walmart and Funi Store?
Thank you for taking so much time to show case this blu ray set and compare it with all the other ones. This seems like it just came out so there’s not a lot of comparison videos of this blu ray set. From the looks of it even though the blu ray packaging is nice and the colletibles are cool it’s still not worth the $350 they wanted for it when there are still from the looks of it aspect ratio issues and other sets like the dragon box that are much better in visual presentation.
I’m really grateful for this video and I hate to bother you, but I was really curious about the menus for this release and was wondering if it would possible for you to show us the menus. Thanks
Hi thanks for the video, I had a question , When you play the series in English Dub with The original Japanese music, at the start of the episode, do you get the opening “ Cha la” ? Or do you get something else? Please and thank you
That’s disappointing! I was really hoping we would get it, instead of that generic gutter rift, I honestly might return it, that’s a real deal breaker for me.
They're never gonna add all the insert songs to the dub, huh? It's also too bad toei is too stubborn to let funi use the fan recorded broadcast audio for the japanese track. It sounds SOOO much better than the tinny crap on pretty much all the DVD and bluray releases.
The dragon boxes are the best by a large margin but they aren't perfect, they're missing the Faulconer soundtrack and they don't use broadcast audio, still if you have the money for them, they're by far the best release, the level releases were also good but were cancelled early and only go up to episode 34, but if you don't want to spend a shitton of money go for the season Blu-Rays, they're at least better than the orange bricks and the 30th anniversary set.
@@jamesfitzgerald8267 Just curious, what makes the Season Blurays better than the 30th Anniversary set? Everyone I have seen says it is virtually the same thing, just in 4:3 hence not cropped.
these are amazing, I’ve been a fan since I was a kid and have seen Dbz in every form going back to VHS. this is the best, I’ve owned them all including the level sets, Dragon box and now the 30th anniversary. The 30th is the best ever released
Hmmm maybe... I really do want this very old but good anime show to have some sort of justice brought to it because it's just been through some extremely poor releases
God, though I hate the extra lines the Z dub added to the original Japanese scripts, Nadolny's screams are WAY more powerful & raw than Clinkenbeard's. Even as Luffy & after she got better at screaming, I don't completely like Colleen's screams that much.
No, I'm not kidding. Colleen's screams as Gohan & Luffy, up until a several years ago, felt a bit hollow. Like she was just screaming to scream. That was when she was really getting into the voice acting scene as a major player, so I can excuse it. I just never felt much when hearing her screams from her earlier work. Nadolny, though, I felt something.
@@ScsigsGaming Earlier, sure. But even since doing Luffy her screams have hit hard. That's one of the most praised things I've heard about her especially when referring to Luffy.
I don't know why they ever decided to crop DBZ or any other 4:3 show like Seinfeld. Cropping shows to 16:9 that were 4:3 is just stupid, I'd rather watch them with black bars any day of the week.
@@Firebreather719 most likely not seeing as most of the cost of the anniversary sets production were put into the box and the statue, so they were bound to cut corners somewhere. At least that's the conclusion I've come to.
@@Firebreather719 yeah true but I guess the thought process was to put emphasis on the collector's edition aspect rather than the overall quality (which is fine but just ...underwhelming) I don't think the special features are any different either. Hell they could've put the complete ocean dub in as a different audio option and people would've bought that over a statue
Unpopular opinion: don't like 4:3 at all whatsoever and tbh the blurays are my favorite imo the only thing that the anniversary set has over them is the falconer score
The default music track (for the blu ray season sets at least) is the Japanese OST with English dialogue, however for some strange reason, the music is muted for this specific Gohan scene. If you switch to the Japanese dialogue audio track, it plays the original song for this scene (Tamashii vs Tamshii). It’s a strange occurrence indeed, but there is of course the option to choose the Faulconer track as well and it plays just fine.
My biggest problem with this $350 collection is that it has the same problem as the widescreen blu-rays: even when you select English dialogue with JAPANESE music, it plays the American Mark Menza opening theme instead of "Cha-La Head Cha-La" like it should. I emailed Funimation about this concern back in June, warning them about the problem on the regular blu-ray sets and asking them to PLEASE ensure that this collection does not have the same issue. They assured me they would forward my email to the proper department. And yet this collection has the same problem, which I'm really upset about. If you want to watch it the proper way with all Japanese music in English, you have to switch the audio to all Japanese every time you watch the opening and switch it back to English dialogue with Japanese music after the opening is over. For a collection they're touting as being so special, repeating the same mistake as the regular blu-rays that I warned them about five months ago is totally unacceptable.
They're probably the same Steve Simmons subtitles they've been using for ages. Bit annoying if you like the dub and want subtitles that reflect the changes Funi made, but I suppose of you actually need the subtitles, it's not a big issue. There are many things wrong with the 30th anniversary release, I'd say the lack of dubtitles ranks pretty low.
@DeeCee some anime releases contain both subtitles and dubtitles. If you prefer the dub dialogue, but want subtitles on, this is when dubtitles would be used.

@@ChaosmasterZ13 honestly that is the only thing I could say negative about this Edition and that would be due to the slight DNR process.... it's very hard choosing between LEVEL and 30th... level looks great but the colors are too dark and is very grainy due to the high definition but it also does retain most of its detail because of that.... 30th honestly just looks slightly better to me because they cleaned the image up just enough to retain most of the detail and getting rid of some of the grain overall making it just a more pleasant picture and the colors are just fantastic....
Are you just going into the comment ssection of every dbz 30th anniversary set and copy pasting your opinion? This is the 2nd video I've seen you post this comment in.
The 30th anniversary seems way too bright and a lot of shadows and colours are messed up because of it. Android 16's head on the ground looks so different between the two.
@@ChaosmasterZ13 yea it sounds nice im just using the build in speakers from my tv but my bass doesnt sound as good as yours , is it like a soundbar or like a speaker setup with woofer?
Season blu rays are better then the 30th because the 43 ratio is actually cropped and you get more of the picture in the season blu rays. the 30th is a joke, just finish the level sets how can that release be better quality and it like 10 years older? what a shit show.
what are you smoking? the 16:9 will always be the cropped version. In the 30th anniversary only the first episodes were heavily cropped , after that its all fine. You have this video to see the comparison betwene the season blu ray sets and the others. Look at gohan's hair that is almost missing in the blu ray season sets
And NONE OF THESE have the correct music. I'll always take the entire Bruce Faulconer soundtrack over the Japanese. The Japanese only got the intros, eye catches, outros, and super saiyan trunks vs mecha frieza right. This scene also, but only the original with the song, unfortunately out in the first few. Kai had the amazing Super Dragon Soul, unfortunately part of the tv broadcast soundtrack that got dropped due to copyright infringement
@@ChaosmasterZ13 Bummer. That’s the best way to watch the show. O Well Guess I Have To Get the 30th anniversary set. You don’t have a problem with the 30th anniversary edition right it’s not A Bad release?
@@tamiasrodentia21So...? The music was always great and sometimes soothing. Better than that little house in the prairie Shit music that uses what sounds like toy noise makers and cow bells. There's a reason you see covers of all those Falconer songs and only the sung songs of the og track.
Wtf is this atrocity? “My scanners sense it” ?? 😆 So they removed the dialogue of protecting the animals that 16 loved . They added stupid dialogue when he became ssj2 ?? Also the amazing song ? This totally dumb. 😂
I notice you use the English dub Kikuchi score, and they removed the song "Unmei no Hi Tamashi tai Tamashi" The Japanese audio still has it, so fuck Funimation for removing that song in the English Kikuchi score and for firing Vic
That's not funimation fault but Toei's. Insert songs are not on the dub track because Toei likely sent them a blank track with just the BGM and sound effects and insert songs are a different thing. Also could be licensing with respective artists.
How would i use the level sets they never got this far in the series! I guess i could of chose one of the early episodes but i chose my favorite scene instead.
rschaosmaster yeah I feel that would be a better comparison to be honest. Honestly the Funimation DBZ level sets are probably the closest HD 1080p with proper color correction, 4:3 aspect ratio, and with the grain intact release that I have seen. If it only had the Japanese opening and ending songs with the Japanese title cards and NEP and the much coveted original broadcast audio, then I would sell my soul to the devil to get it.
Thanks for doing this. I completely understand why people were pissed at this release - and it is far from ideal - but this shows that the cropping really isn't that bad.

No Falconer sound track?
Faulconer's score is on this set
So which is the best?
Dragon Box Z!
@@ChaosmasterZ13 DVD version so?
30th anniversary for something that wont break the bank
@@BatGamershow0661940 no
Wtf is this atrocity? “My scanners sense it” ?? 😆
So they removed the dialogue of protecting the animals that 16 loved .
They added stupid dialogue when he became ssj2 ?? Also the amazing song ?
This totally dumb. 😂
What comparisons are you making? Kai vs the original Z or what do you mean they removed the diologue?
these suck without the original FUNimation music...
Do a menu comparison
I notice you use the English dub Kikuchi score, and they removed the song "Unmei no Hi Tamashi tai Tamashi" The Japanese audio still has it, so fuck Funimation for removing that song in the English Kikuchi score and for firing Vic
That's not funimation fault but Toei's. Insert songs are not on the dub track because Toei likely sent them a blank track with just the BGM and sound effects and insert songs are a different thing. Also could be licensing with respective artists.
Why didn’t u use the level sets?
How would i use the level sets they never got this far in the series! I guess i could of chose one of the early episodes but i chose my favorite scene instead.
rschaosmaster yeah I feel that would be a better comparison to be honest. Honestly the Funimation DBZ level sets are probably the closest HD 1080p with proper color correction, 4:3 aspect ratio, and with the grain intact release that I have seen. If it only had the Japanese opening and ending songs with the Japanese title cards and NEP and the much coveted original broadcast audio, then I would sell my soul to the devil to get it.
@@ChaosmasterZ13 yeah if you have the level sets I think it's worth the view
Dbz kai
Not a good way to do a comparison...
:/
The dub is so horrible
No it’s So Horrible to You.
