Bah! The latest pruning has left us looking so small! We're one of the longest running clubs here, and I say we pick up our activity so we can remain alive

Anyway, I actually have some news, though it's been floating around for a few days now. Actually, I posted it in the Anime Corner, (Se Selonia, technically, but I prefer the old names, as they were more self-explanatory) but, as I don't know how many people visit that part of the boards, you may have missed out on the news. First up, this September will see some changes in the Toonami line-up which I think will please everyone here. It will look like this:

Weekdays

5:00 PM - SD Gundam Force - Premiere
5:30 PM - Cyborg 009
6:00 PM - Dragon Ball Z
6:30 PM - Dragon Ball - New Episodes

Fridays

5:00 PM - SD Gundam Force
5:30 PM - Cyborg 009
6:00 PM - Toonami In-Flight Movies:

Furthermore, the schedule for "In-Flight Movies" will look as follows:

9/05: DBZ - Bardock: The Father of Goku
9/12: DBZ - History of Trunks
9/19: DBZ - Cooler's Revenge
9/26: DBZ - Return of Cooler

For one, finally get new episodes of DragonBall! As everyone here probably knows, I've been really looking forward to seeing the Piccolo Daimaoh Saga (as I never saw DragonBall like I did via subs like I did with Z and GT). Also, many fans consider this Saga to be one of the best out of all three DragonBall series, so I think we'll all have some fun watching it ^^

Also, for four weeks, there will be some DBZ movies and specials on that CN hasn't aired yet. Personally, I'm glad about this, too. Seeing as I never bought the first 6 movies on DVD (7-13 are much better in my opinion, so I'll be buying those). That being said, I've actually never seen the dubbed versions of movies 4 and 6, (I think...between movies 4, 5, and 6, I only saw one of them dubbed) so this will be a new experience of sorts for me.

Then, after those four movies air, starting October 3, DragonBall GT will begin airing on US television! Unfortunately, they've announced that they'll be starting with episode 16 like they did with the DVD release, but they've "reassured" us that we'll eventually get the first 15 episodes in the future

In any case, some is better than none, as GT will finally be airing here. It's actually funny...on another (anime) messageboard I'm on, I'd say about 90% of the people never saw GT, and they were all wondering what it was about, but we all know better, because everyone here has read SSJ4 Goku's summaries ^_^

Well, I'd say that was the perfect lead-in to re-post part IV of my GT summary now

------------
...And now we come to the next installment of my GT summary (based on my last two, it's not even all that summarized >_<) Now, I realize everyone's probably going to run away now in fear of another long summary, but have no fear! Part IV will only be based on episode 41, and now without further hesitation....DragonBall GT summary, Part IV!

Not going to bother with the re-cap anymore...mainly for the fact that the re-cap will take up a while (which could be spent typing the actual summary) and, in this part's case, it would end up being longer than the summary itself!
^^....

Anyway, we last left off with the World being wished back, and what better way to celebrate than with a World Martial Arts Tournament! That's right! we have the (insert number here) Tenkachi Budoukai taking place, with Goku entered in the Kids Division, and Pan entered in the Adults. It's basically focused on those two, so lets take a look at Goku first, shall we?

Nothing much to Goku's run. He gets eliminated right away. when the kid he's against tricks him into talking to him and while they're talking, he bumps into Goku and tickles him until he goes out of bounds...so much for Goku this time^^

Pan, on the other hand does much better. She racks up win after win until the announcer asks her how she felt if she ended up against her Grandfather (Mr. Satan entered too) She ends up dropping out to the competition out of fear of that. Then we get to the final round where it's Uub (yup, he's back! He didn't just leave after the first episode) against Mr. Satan. Uub is about to win, but then (touching moment coming up again) Mr. Satan is the Earth's "hero" (so to speak) and if he was defeated everyone would look down upon him (Mr. Satan, that is), so he lets Mr. Satan punch him out of the ring, and Mr. Satan is the Winner (reminiscent of DBZ, or what^^)
------------

Well, I guess that's about all for now, but since the last discussion topic was a dud, anyone else care to think of something to keep us lively?

In case anyone can't come up with something (I'm hoping that isn't the case, though)...I guess we could just discuss our feelings about the new Toonami line-up...or something (yeah, I'm a little lazy today, but I'm sure we can think of something to talk about, right? ^^)

Bye
