If they do Super or GT. I remember them saying that they may end DBZA after the Buu saga. It depends how long they want to keep it going. Since Super is already retelling BOG and ROF, so I don't see any point of DBZA doing BOG and ROF.

I'll be the bad guy this discussion and say I've never really seen the point in DBZ Abridged. Sure it gets some cheap laughs out of me on occasion and has fun with the material given. But when I want to watch DB/Z/GT I just watch them. I don't want to watch a silly condensed version. For basically the same reason I don't want to watch Kai for it's condensation, it's just that here there's also some really silly humor that doesn't always appeal to me. Like it's funny and I enjoyed the episodes I watched, which were quite a few, but it's just not something I'm overly fond of. I don'[t eagerly await the next DBZA episode or movie or anything.

I feel like DBZA kinda lost it's appeal once everybody got on the bandwagon.
it just became a way for people to try to make new memes and products to sell.

like, references aren't jokes, and DBZA has more references than anything should know what to do with.

I love Abridged. Episodes are hit or miss, but there are still some truly fantastic jokes in it.

"What's a kami?"
"It's means god, NOW BOW!"

Then there was the whole news report with all of the horror movie titles in it.

However, I do agree with Deno that it won't stop me from watching the regular series. On the other hand, I will only be watching Kai from now on. Last year/early this year my watching the entire DBZ series in order in a short time span was great, but the majority of the show really is pointless. I'll go with Kai for the stuff that I can. Not to mention the dub is good.

Yea the dub for Kai is good they were doing proper translation this time round. I two only go Kai but will watch z for buu saga then I watch yo so goku special and films before last three of Z

I like Kai over the original DBZ too. I find it hard to watch the original DBZ again because the pacing in it can be pretty bad. I'm a DB fan who is a fan of the manga over the anime. I'm used to how things move quickly in the manga over the anime. Kai feels more closer to the manga over to the anime in my opinion.

Not a fan of the filler since most of it adds nothing to the story. I like Pikkon and the driving test episode, I don't care for anything else. I always found the human Z fighters beating the Ginyu Force on King Kai's planet so easily when Vegeta, Gohan and Krillin had no luck until Goku arrived. I doubt Yamcha became stronger then Vegeta so soon and quick.

I became like that as well ever since owning the manga I can't watch original z even though I own it

I like the Kai English dub over the DBZ English dub (post-Ocean voice cast). I have a hard time sitting through the 1999-2003 dub of DBZ and the Ultimate Uncut dub because they have aged badly in my opinion. Shunsuke Kikuchi's music to me is so iconic that I always love it. Bruce Faulconer is good, but I don't love his music like most US fans do.

I enjoy Bruce's music, just not as DBZ music. I can listen to it on its own, because a lot of it sounds good, but it just doesn't fit with a lot of what is happening on screen.

The dub is the only reason I will watch the Boo saga of Kai when it comes out.

I initially thought the Ginyu Force showing up on Kai's planet was cool, but yeah, they are beaten way too easily. I get it was to show how much stronger the trio had gotten, but come on. It just dragged out what was already a dragged out arc.

Like you I prefer the manga and I'm pretty much going to say that Battle of Gods and Resurrection F are manga canon while Super is anime canon.

The only filler I can say that I truly do enjoy is the stuff during the first 6 months of the Vegeta saga. I do like getting to see what Tenshinhan and gang were doing to get stronger along with Gohan's growth from pampered baby to warrior.

I feel you the weird thing me being uk fan we had the first ocean dub that was partnered with saban then we got few funimation episode then we had full blown Westwood ocean dub for the rest of z and it second ocean dub that used Japanese score I oddly all ways loved diverse cast ocean did character not every one voice more then one character unless they were minor. I just full on hate Bruce faulconer score and don't see why people like it.
