Well, don't worry Usagy, I'm still here. News has been slow, so I've been letting it pile up, though even now there's not an incredible amount to post, but we'll push on nevertheless.

On the topic of GT: No, Usagy, GT still hasn't aired here in the US yet. It was initially set for an October 3rd release date, but for some unknown reason, it didn't happen. Now it's being advertised as starting in about two weeks. That's right (to answer your question Anamaniac) it should finally be appearing on CN at 6:30 p.m. Friday, Nov. 7.

Also, If anyone has Real One Player, there's a station I occasionally listen to called Anime Internet Radio. On an edition last week (I believe it was) they had an interview with Kyle Hebert (the voice of the narrator of the show, Pikkon, Teen Gohan, among others). In it, aside from typical responses to typical questions (regarding "how does one become a voice actor," and whatnot) he did mention that FUNi is indeed already working on re-dubbing the first 53 episodes of DBZ, as he mentioned he'll be playing the voice of Ox King, so I just thought I'd mention that: after all, it's good to know they're working on it ^^

Also, I have some other news, though newer members probably won't know what I'm talking about (though I know Usagy, and Kana will, among others). Remember when I sent everyone who asked for them the copies of Neko Majin and Neko Majin Z? Well, a few days ago, I found out that there was a Neko Majin Z 2, and I just got it (and read it; like the others, it's a one-shot, so it was short). This one featured spoofs on Mr. Satan, and, best of all, Frieza, who looked almost identical to the way he did in DBZ. Like I did last time, if anyone wants it, I can send it to you via e-mail. It's 16 pages, plus a cover (two pages, cover included, in color). I suspect readers of the original two will want to read it, but if anyone's interested, let me know.

Lastly, because I'm short on time (and because I don't remember what else I was going to say -_-), here's the re-post of Part VI of my GT summary. Remember, this is the last one I did, so the next one I'll actually have to actually write up a summary, and it will conclude GT ^_^.

----------------------
And now what everyone's been waiting for, DragonBall GT Summary Part VI (with new super-condensed action--well, that is to say I'll try to cut back).

When we last left off, we saw that Goku, Bulma and Number 18 gather up the DragonBalls and try to wish back Krillin, but it doesn't work! They note the DragonBalls were cracked a little, but just remark that it's because they're old. Then they try wishing the world back to the way it was before Super 17 came, and that doesn't work either. Then, finally, the Dragon appears, but it isn't the Shenlong we all know and love...

He first said he didn't care about the wishes, and that he had created 7 Evil Dragons, each with the DragonBalls. He then goes on to explain that, over the years, Negative Energy built up in the DragonBalls as a result of no evil wishes ever being made upon them, causing them to crack a little. Kibitoshin mentions that if the Dragon Radar had never been invented, this wouldn't have happened. Bulma tries "passing the buck", so to say, saying that she wasn't alone and had help from Goku.

Now, Goku, being the person he is, feels responsible for this too, so de decides to take off to defeat the Evil Shenlons. So, (and now we speed up a lot to save some time), Goku travels all over to defeat the first 6 Dragons (*see note later on regarding this)...

All the while, Vegeta is boiling up at the fact that that his rival has attained a level higher than him, so Bulma (being the lovely wife that she is) decides to make a machine that will turn him into a SSJ4, just like Goku!

Now, elsewhere, Goku stumbles upon Ii Shenron, who has just absorbed all 7 DragonBalls, making him nearly invincible!

What's a Saiyan to do? Find out next time, in DragonBall GT, Part VII (boy, I just love cliffhangers, don't I^^)

Now, for that Side note I mentioned Earlier. Why, do you ask, did I not go into detail about the first 6 Dragons? Well, for a few reasons. (1) To save time (I told you I would work on condensing!) (2) We already have somewhat of a background on them from my Evil Shenron Post (which could be considered GT Summary 6.5) and (3) Maybe....just a little, because 1 Star is my favorite, and I wanted to get to him^^

No, really, in the whole, they focus on Li Shenron Much more. This just took us from Episode 47 (Subtitled "This is a Surprise! Shenlon is the Enemy?!" through 56 (again, Subtitled "After the Sun, Comes the Freeze! The Fire and Ice Dragon Brothers" Now that's 9 episodes, and the Li Shenron Fight lasts like 7 episodes itself, which shows you a comparison of how important they are in comparison.

If anyone wants me to go into any details on any (or all) of the Dragons and/or their battles, just let me know. I'll gladly do it.

----------------------

Well, that's about it for now. Like I said, next time I'll actually have to buckle down and write the final summary for GT. Oh, and like I said earlier, if anyone's interested in getting their copy of Neko Majin Z 2 (or, for newer members, Neko Majin or Neko Majin Z as well) just let me know, and provide me your e-mail address.

Bye
