Just to clarify, I'd forgotten about the uncut versions, and I was referring to the watered-down version of the show. By kids I mean 10-14 year olds, not preschoolers.
@rendetsku Honestly, this opening is spectacular. Better than all those old dbz intros. This is in no way bad, I am addicted to this. My respect of you had died for saying that. How is this bad in any way,shape, or form?? Japanese Dragon Ball will always have the best voices. Goku is voiced by a woman, yes, but she is in no way annoying and at least they don't sound like their taking a crap while screaming. Goku acts like a kid even as an adult so his voice is great . I commend both versions
@GigoloJustaGigolo No blinded by nostalgia entails you have fond memories of something from long ago and when a new version comes out, no matter how different or same (good or bad), you won't like it.
@Xx0Mystic0xX That's how it was when I saw it on Toonami too. They have to tone it down a little bit if they want to air it on a popular network. If you don't want the blood edited out, buy the DVDs. That's how dragonball has always been.
@Xx0Mystic0xX and how is it a disappointment? DBK is a gift. We all thought dragon ball dead. The fact that this and that new 2008 special came proves its not and hey, maybe we'll see a new series. I love DBK, it was a brilliant idea and an excellent way for funi to redeem themselves. The new voices and score are simply amazing aspects of this remake, not to mention the new animtion
Don't stop don't stop we're in luck now don't stop there so much to me found we can't find paradise all we have to do is gogo free the soul dragon soul awesome great video 😄
@Badboynic1010 Its going to premiere on "Nicktoons Network" May 24th and on CW4Kids sometime after the Summer. Sucks though as Nicktoons is a premium channel and its gonna take a while for the premiere on CW
I download the Seasons off uTorrent. Luckily for me the voices are English, but it has this opening. I really enjoy this enjoy this opening rather than the other, it's SO catchy. Also, the version I got was uncensored, so they say things like bastard, dammit, etc.
@miclegendx666 That's because this isn't the NickToons version. It's (like the title says) the real song. I won't say this particular opening has been in Toonami, but yeah. Personally I like this version better.
I really wish that the graphics for Kai's opening were that way throughout the whole show. I didnt mind Kai at all, but was a lil disappointed when I saw the opening credits then saw the show itself, big difference still.
The images don't really match the song, but somehow I think this song captures the character of the show a lot better. In my opinion definetly an improvment. No point pretending this is all serious like in the older intros, that's just corny. DBZ's just a fun kids show, the song captures the joy and fun of watching the show. I guess also it's meant to sound like the Japanese OP.
@Xx0Mystic0xX How so? This is how dragonball has always been. They did the same thing on Toonami, and if it wasn't for Toonami you probably wouldn't have heard of dragonball. It's either this, or air it late at night on some network where it won't get exposure to new fans of the series. Just buy the DVDs when they come out, they'll have everything you want.
You know, some of the best music is from back in "the day". Just because something is new doesn't automatically make it better. *Sigh*... Kids these days.
I know it cuts out the filler parts of the original but its still not as good i mean there some scenes that are complete speeded up and it just look weird when you remember the original
@closestsound yea, but i think thats kind of ironic. same with cartoon network and cn real. lol. btw, did u hear toonami's coming back to cartoon network?
@yamisupersaiyan Well first of all, they took away the entire essence of DBZ by substituting the violence for black smudges. For example, When Piccolo shot Raditz and Goku with the special beam cannon there was supposed to be a gaping hole followed by blood and a horrifed reaction from the two. They made it seem like he stubbed his toe. Sersly, its on nickolodeon now which makes it seem like its a kids show which it is clearly not. It has swearing and excessive violence.
@sake195 Nah its the other way around. Kai gets straight to the good stuff. No more of that annoying drag and over done power ups. The DUB is a thousand times better too. VAs sound experienced and the dialogue is accurate. Plus some scenes look so much nicer
@yamisupersaiyan The lyrics don't matter. The song gets you pumped for 20 minutes of dudes screaming at each other and fighting. The new opening is just, like I said, a generic j-pop song. It doesn't get me pumped, it bores me. You could put it before Barbie Dreamland, and it would fit better. Another thing, they got rid of Kyle Hebert as the announcer, that's enough to give it a 0/10.
Goku if you and everyone else did those stances at 0:40-0:41 when your charging up not only would be in a good pose 4 getting ready 2 strike with but more importantly ppl would stop making fun of you and the everyone else on this show and saying that when you power up you constipated! >:C
@GigoloJustaGigolo What makes this opening shitty? For one thing it has UNIQUE lyrics (not just rock the dragon etc.), Awesome animation, and meaning. If you mean Falconer, nice song but it was too techno for DBZ
@GigoloJustaGigolo Thats the thing. Anyone who actually knows about DBZ would know its not about a show where dudes scream at each other and fight. lol Ironically, its about the meaning behind it which a lot of current series lack. Rock the Dragon is generic rock trash so whats your point? Well its GETS ME PUMPED. Just cause you need viagra to pump yourself up, doesn't mean its the fault of the opening. You're just a kid hopped up on nostalgia pills. I liked Hebert but this guy is great too
so a song in which people put effort to can never contend to an outdated song where the singer just repeats the same lyrics over and over again? sure, whatever.
@GigoloJustaGigolo lol the lyrics for rock the dragon: rock the dragon dragon ball z. I'm sorry which one is the abortion? Like what the hell is rock the dragon supposed to mean anyway?
@GigoloJustaGigolo No I actually love nostalgia. Its when people are so blinded by nostalgia that they can't see the good in improvements needed that I get pissed. EVERYTHING is raped for the sake of money if can be. Kai is no exception but it actually DID improve a lot of DBZ flaws. When somethings raped for more money and legit sucks, than fine you got a point but Kai was actually better. Listen i'm getting tired of going back and forth. You're obviously to ignorant to realize anything
@mehico33 Actually you responding to my last comment proves your a troll. By posting that comment on a DBZ fan video, you started a fight -.-. Honestly me writing this is just fueling the fire but just saying. Opinions are Opinions
I love every db/dbz series
literally gives me chills every time
@Sovember Yes you're right, I remember the "uncut" versions now. I haven't seen the show since I was 12. I've only ever seen the watered down version.
This plus the Toonami edit episodes = perfection
Just to clarify, I'd forgotten about the uncut versions, and I was referring to the watered-down version of the show. By kids I mean 10-14 year olds, not preschoolers.

yamcha is my second favorite guy in dbz because of his mastering the art of the smart ass
@rendetsku yea i know! a petition to bring toonami back was signed, but idk when they'll be bringing it back
Keep your spirit proud and they'll never win!
i change my mind this one is awesome
@Xx0Mystic0xX That's how it was when I saw it on Toonami too. They have to tone it down a little bit if they want to air it on a popular network. If you don't want the blood edited out, buy the DVDs. That's how dragonball has always been.
"Rock the Dragon" forever!
@Xx0Mystic0xX

They did the lyrics pretty good for the english version. I APPROVE.
I watched dbz when I got home from school on Toonami every day when I was 9 dude.
i believe this IS Sean Shemmel, so yes, the voice of Goku.
Don't stop don't stop we're in luck now don't stop there so much to me found we can't find paradise all we have to do is gogo free the soul dragon soul awesome great video 😄
Finally a real one!
@Badboynic1010

Personally I like this version better.
@yamisupersaiyan That's funny, because I've only seen bits and pieces of DBZ up until 3 years ago.
Actually this is only the first verse of the song that they took the theme from. Search dragon soul and select the first video.
i used to like brazilian (portuguese) version better
but i'm really addicted to the english one,and that's soooooo much better
I really wish that the graphics for Kai's opening were that way throughout the whole show. I didnt mind Kai at all, but was a lil disappointed when I saw the opening credits then saw the show itself, big difference still.
its super cool
The images don't really match the song, but somehow I think this song captures the character of the show a lot better. In my opinion definetly an improvment. No point pretending this is all serious like in the older intros, that's just corny. DBZ's just a fun kids show, the song captures the joy and fun of watching the show. I guess also it's meant to sound like the Japanese OP.
Goku is such an talented singer!
He should go on American idol xD
@logank2002 You DO know that it's Sean Schemmel singing, right? He voiced Goku... I'm fairly certain he's not going to make a fake opening song.
@EmphaticItalic yeah im glad kai used the japaneese music. as much as i love rock the dragon, it gets old the 98th time around
@Xx0Mystic0xX How so? This is how dragonball has always been. They did the same thing on Toonami, and if it wasn't for Toonami you probably wouldn't have heard of dragonball. It's either this, or air it late at night on some network where it won't get exposure to new fans of the series. Just buy the DVDs when they come out, they'll have everything you want.
Something about it sounds like the ending theme to GT
yep, exactly.
@mehico33
Also, this is my own fucking video. Most people
love this. The troll is the one who complains
like a bitch, that would be you.
for the whole frieza saga. I couldn't tell if frieza was boy or a girl
I've already lost faith since a LONG time ago
Tien be singing.
you can really tell it's goku singing at :40
omg i just learned that sean schemel( sorry i spelt it wrong) sings this song
I with u guys
You know, some of the best music is from back in "the day". Just because something is new doesn't automatically make it better. *Sigh*... Kids these days.
@sake195
That doesn't mean Kai is shit bro. Nostalgia and quality are two different things
Chill man, its called opinions.
@yamisupersaiyan There is a difference between "From Japan" and "Weeaboo."
0:00- 0:01 Yes it is the Real Opening :p
@yamisupersaiyan This video changed my opinion about DBZ Kai. Are you getting Nicktoons soon?
I know it cuts out the filler parts of the original but its still not as good i mean there some scenes that are complete speeded up and it just look weird when you remember the original
Canadian Dragon ftw
@closestsound yea, but i think thats kind of ironic. same with cartoon network and cn real. lol. btw, did u hear toonami's coming back to cartoon network?
Finally someone who thinks the same
my only problem with this is at the beginning when he says don't stop it sounds a little weird
@yamisupersaiyan Well first of all, they took away the entire essence of
DBZ by substituting the violence for black smudges. For example, When Piccolo
shot Raditz and Goku with the special beam cannon there was supposed to be
a gaping hole followed by blood and a horrifed reaction from the two. They made it seem like he stubbed his toe. Sersly, its on nickolodeon now which makes it seem like its a kids show which it is clearly not. It has swearing and excessive violence.
Yeah
Any word on if it's gonna show up here in Canada? You know, because our igloos totally get cable :P
love the dbz animemation! it a little brighter. and crisper. :D not like the fake modern cgi looking anime like tiger abd bunny.
@yamisupersaiyan Blinded by nostalgia would suggest I haven't seen DBZ (lately) or Kai.
I swear I'm loosing faith in mankind...
Though this version is better, it doesn't beat Rock the Dragon the theme from the original DragonBall Z.
I disagree with you. I think “Don’t Stop Don’t Stop We’re in luck now” is better than “Dragon dragon. Rock the dragon”
@sake195
Nah its the other way around. Kai gets straight to the good stuff. No more of that annoying drag and over done power ups. The DUB is a thousand times better too. VAs sound experienced and the dialogue is accurate. Plus some scenes look so much nicer
@yamisupersaiyan Why is it every time something gets raped for the sake of more money, people defend it by crying "Nostalgia?"
@yamisupersaiyan The lyrics don't matter. The song gets you pumped for 20 minutes of dudes screaming at each other and fighting.
The new opening is just, like I said, a generic j-pop song. It doesn't get me pumped, it bores me. You could put it before Barbie Dreamland, and it would fit better.

@yamisupersaiyan Some gift. More like a middle-finger
to all DBZ fans.
@EminemForever1234567 Actually GT is canon. As for kai being a remake, hey its your opinion
Uh
I thot it was Vic
@SONICBOYREBORN234 The original don't suck. I just think Kai should be like the opening :|
I like it, but i still prefer the orginal dbz english opening
Sean sings terrible. I like it when Vic sings it
@2583060 I'ts quite normal since both songs are performed by the same group, I think
@GigoloJustaGigolo
What makes this opening shitty? For one thing it has UNIQUE lyrics (not just rock the dragon etc.), Awesome animation, and meaning. If you mean Falconer, nice song but it was too techno for DBZ
this sounds like it has been auto tuned
Why did they have to say {"that we will seek"} instead of energy? Energy sounds better
thank god i have nicktoons
Lol japenese or AMERICAN both sound like DO KAN DO KAN lol That was the GT oringal opening.
@GigoloJustaGigolo
Thats the thing. Anyone who actually knows about DBZ would know its not about a show where dudes scream at each other and fight. lol Ironically, its about the meaning behind it which a lot of current series lack. Rock the Dragon is generic rock trash so whats your point? Well its GETS ME PUMPED. Just cause you need viagra to pump yourself up, doesn't mean its the fault of the opening. You're just a kid hopped up on nostalgia pills. I liked Hebert but this guy is great too
My cousin is sayin this is fake
so a song in which people put effort to can never contend to an outdated song where the singer just repeats the same lyrics over and over again? sure, whatever.
@GigoloJustaGigolo
lol the lyrics for rock the dragon: rock the dragon dragon ball z. I'm sorry which one is the abortion? Like what the hell is rock the dragon supposed to mean anyway?
@mehico33
To each his own. Just don't troll about it. Respect each work except for 4kids
i miss the original dbz the voice actors were better
The original one has a different voice
@GigoloJustaGigolo
No I actually love nostalgia. Its when people are so blinded by nostalgia that they can't see the good in improvements needed that I get pissed. EVERYTHING is raped for the sake of money if can be. Kai is no exception but it actually DID improve a lot of DBZ flaws. When somethings raped for more money and legit sucks, than fine you got a point but Kai was actually better. Listen i'm getting tired of going back and forth. You're obviously to ignorant to realize anything
@TheDerek14
Dude thats EDITED KAI. Uncut Kai is so much better
@GigoloJustaGigolo
And that is?
But... this is the song from the original Japanese version.
is this the theme from the uncut dvd?
the real song is from japan
:D
Why does the Opening graphics look so well and the anime looks the same shit as the original D:?
:)
@mehico33
Actually you responding to my last comment proves your a troll. By posting that comment on a DBZ fan video, you started a fight -.-. Honestly me writing this is just fueling the fire but just saying. Opinions are Opinions
Is it just me or is this being sung by Goku?
I prefer the canadian one actually
wait, where can you watch this on? Its not gonna be on cartoon network is it?
Well...it's the real ENGLISH version...
@meganfiremoo lmao i cant even-
I think the NickToon-Version is better. :D but it's only my opinion (:
really? what about frieza and Goku they sound way different
