Is there STILL not a Dragon Ball thread? If so

Not anytime soon. The case is being appealed. If they appeal goes in Funimation/Rial’s favor. He’ll have fees to pay but this case isn’t going to be over anytime soon.

Has anything gone his way? I don’t think an appeal is going to based on everything that’s happened

Voice of Frieza, Chris Ayers gets lung transplant

Hope dude is well, can’t imagine Frieza without his voice.

I’ve come to appreciate Ayers as Frieza so much so that he’s def surpassed Funi’s original VA in my head. Hopefully he gets better.

I decided to get caught up in the Super manga out of curiosity and a sudden need for more Dragon ball and this Moro antagonist is interesting…liking the fact that it heavily involves Buu as well.

To me, the Japanese voice actor for Freeza is the real Freeza!!!

“…Shin Golden Freeza…”

This gave me goosebumps!!!

I wasn’t trying to compare with japanese Va, just the english.

The Frieza japanese AV is GOAT tier. The characterization is on point with the facial expressions and the overall personality

Isn’t Chris Ayers alright now? Heard the man is doing better.

I like that he sounds just like LittleKuriboh’s Frieza from DBZ Abridged, to methat’s just a perfect voice for this sleazy scumbag of a villain

He is said to be on the mend but transplants are not easy and all recoveries are not successful.

I see. Let’s hope he gets well soon. :pray:

Buu’s the only one that looks cool

Cell looks rape-y as hell in that render. Reminds me how awesome Cell was at the beginning (not that Perfect Cell was bad) with the mystery/horror-esque tone the series took til he evolved. I’d like another horror style villain down the line if possible

He was a literal bug.

Imagine having to meet and fight those guys in real life (Cell, Freeza, Piccolo, Majin Buu)…

Most of us can’t even handle Hercule’s goofy ass.
