While the audio for the characters was re-recorded and a new score composed by Norihito Sumitomo (who scored Battle of Gods, Resurrection 'F', and now Super) was done, this version of the show isn't something you truly need to watch. So now the two biggest points of a Kai version for the Boo arc are gone: less filler removal and a remaster that hurts the eyes and dishonors the vision originally intended by the people who worked on the original version of the show. The quality has a HUGE drop with a crop to 16:9, haloing, poor framing in certain scenes, bad DNR that removes detail, and for reasons unknown to this day a green tint over the video excluding the OP, ED, and eyecatches. Whereas Toei paid QTEC to remaster the footage for the first 98 episodes of DBZ Kai, this version's remastering was done internally at Toei. The remastering process was gimped as well. This arc could've had much much much more filler removed than it did. The first Kai took episodes 001 to 194 of Z and turned it into 98 episodes. Here, the arc begins at episode 99 and goes to 167-69 episodes total (international version, not Japan version that aired on Fuji TV). For reference, the Majin Boo arc for DBZ began at episode 200 and lasted to 291-91 episodes total. Right off that bat, the biggest point of a Kai version for the Boo arc is mostly gone.

If I remember correctly, Kanzenshuu said that the international cut only removed 25% of the filler from the series while the cut that actually did air in Japan removed only 33% (it got 9 less episodes than the rest of the world did). The filler removal is less than I would have hoped for. But since this was never planned to air in Japan and the first Kai got low ratings, Toei half-assed this as much as they possiblyĬould. Investors wanted it for the overseas audience, thus they went ahead with it after all.

However, the original version would end up accidentally being released on XFINITY TV Go.While it's better than the Z version for the filler that was removed, Dragon Ball Z Kai: The Final Chapters is a poor sequel to the original Dragon Ball Z Kai that we received a few years ago.Īfter the end of DBZ Kai with its lower than expected ratings, Toei did not plan to make a Kai for the Majin Boo arc of the series.

Due to Toei taking offense, FUNimation was forced to change it, using archive audio from the original dub of Dragon Ball Z instead. The Fake Actors re-enacting the Cell Games were originally voiced by members of Team Four Star, known for their Dragon Ball Z: Abridged parodies.Brad Jackson regains the role of Oolong from Bryan Massey after returning to the voice acting business.Australian anime distributor Madman Entertainment also stated that the Buu Saga should be released on Novemon Cartoon Network, this, however, would not be the case. Sometime in 2015, it was confirmed at a convention that Tia Ballard would be voicing Marron in the dub. Sean Schemmel (Goku) and Kyle Hebert (Gohan) had previously stated that they were recording for the last part of Kai as early as April 2013, indicating that dubbing was completed for a long period beforehand. The Final Chapters premiered and aired concurrent with FUNimation's dub of Dragon Ball Super in the U.S. The dub for Kai: The Final Chapters was announced by FUNimation Entertainment in December 2016 to be airing on Adult Swim's Toonami block in January 2017, following the completion of the first half of the series on Toonami, after much waiting from fans for the second half to be released.
