FUNimation got the rights to Dragon Ball Kai
|
![]() FUNimation appears to have adjusted the title of the series for their domestic release to DragonBall Kai as seen on their blog this afternoon (See the link below) and now is named to Dragon Ball Z: Kai. The Chief Executive Officer Cary Deacon announced the official license of DragonBall Kai to FUNimation, which is scheduled for release in the "latter part of the upcoming fiscal year" which can be this summer or by the end of 2010. For the people that don't know what DBkai is? DragonBall Kai is a "refreshed" version of the actual DragonBall Z TV series featuring a new musical score, many of the original voice actors and actresses returning, a quickened-pace to the story, and no fillers (For example Goku falling off of Snake Way is not in DBkai since it was a filler, and not in the manga).
