How I Found LOST Dragon Ball Dubs on VHS

[@FumeiComTV]

So even though I pointed to it at the end of the video, Toei took down part 1 of my DBZ dubs video yesterday and it was too late for me to change the video. I plan on reuploading it next week combined with the 2nd part with slight editing to hopefully get by the claim. For now you can view it via my Archive upload! archive.org/details/DBZdubs

[@YAH2121]

Bless you!

[@craigrjanssen]

Hey do you have any information about that solar entertainment dub it looks interesting

[@TheCartoonGamer8000]

What an insane and inspiring story! Give yourself a pat on the back for such great archiving work!

[@Notelu]

Thanks for the shout out! It's actually funny that you found it for your dragon ball preservation, as I actually helped preserve the Harmony Gold dub lmao

[@VivisikXIV]

I am a FIlipino and I remember when Roshi was "Master Buten", Nimbus was Kinton, Stretch Stick, Frankie, Krillin was the term, i almost thought it never existed, then i saw your vid. i also see some clips uploaded here on youtube.

[@ZeBenko]

Was really happy to be apart of this. Helping find rare dubs like this? Couldn't ask for anything more.

[@renny9879]

awesome that you helped out!

[@KremBotop]

I often try to keep up with the show’s obscure dubs, but that second one is truly one that I’ve never heard of before. So congrats for that discovery. Between this and the unveiling of the remaining Big Green dubs and the Harmony Gold one, rare DB dubs are clearly in a better state than before

[@heyitsmenessie]

who would have thought that me trying to find a music cd would lead to finding lost movie dubs great video! i really enjoyed it and it was happy to help out with finding this stuff! and also thanks for the songs of a high spirited saga cd!

[@derekgreen7319]

I had some of these old dragon ball dubs. Specifically the movies. I found them as a kid af a flea market. I was so excited and confused at the same time lol

[@rassilontdavros3004]

Do you still have them?

[@DBZimran]

Great video! Thanks for all your work

[@Lore1.0]

Today, i just found my old vhs tapes of dbz. Now im here going down a rabbit hole of old anime media.

[@KingGarlock]

I had that Realplayer file years ago back in high school, for 20 some odd years I thought I would never hear or find the "Kamehameha WAAAAAVE" dub. This is amazing! My mind is no longer broken!

[@redrawurworld]

as a filipino dragonball fan, it's really interesting for me to go through the history of its run in the philippines, both in tagalog and in english. i just wanna say thank you for your efforts, guys. this is the kind of shit that really makes me proud to be a part of this community.

[@oliverkloshophdndrecords50]

Why you don't have at least 100k subs is beyond me. You definitely deserve it, and so much more.

[@ThexDynastxQueen]

I've heard the English Filipino OP but never seen anything of the actual dub, amazing work! I remember owning the DB Harmony Gold dub set after begging my mom to get it for $20 but I quickly threw it away because it wasn't the JP or Funi Eng dub so I saw no reason to keep them, ahhhhhhhh kid me lol.

[@Andy_0L]

Man, I had seen those in the archive site but I had no idea who had done it. My respects, especially for all the patience with the hunting of the tapes and the remaster, it's simply amazing.

[@captainkirk9691]

Your a hero to all Dragon Ball fans. Thank you for preserving history.

[@faceheadman]

God bless your hard work. "super cyan blast" has been a meme in my friend circle for years and now we finally have a high quality version of it. thanks dude

[@sometf2player752]

2:24 good choice to play the orignal anime first then the sequel

[@RainKerosene]

I am shocked by the view count and subscriber count, this is some quality content and very comprehensive

[@UnparalleledDev0]

thank you for your dedication to preserving history!

[@hilarioph]

Dragon ball The Greatest Rival was been the company of Solar Entertainment Home Video in the Philippines. But we didn't know they released Dragon Ball from Regal Entertainment Home Video. Now Dragon Ball OVA movies were digital and restored by Toei

[@MaxBraver555]

you actually remastered the actual VHS clip itself? wow thanks, by the way, there's also DBZ movie with Broly, also an back to back covering 2 movies

[@AizakkuAnalysis]

Gosh, man. The Amazon Japan footage looks so good.

[@rdu239]

The Greatest Rivals was aired in the Philippines on a Sunday night, back when foreign movies are aired during Sunday nights and its big deal to 90's kids back then

[@blainy-o93]

11:26 oh lord that reminds me of the Ocean/Westwood days well before the Dragon Box remaster project...

[@starwindamada5313]

First I find the entirety of the Ocean dub (as in the Saban stuff plus the Westwood stuff) and now this. Also, Funi's early episodes where they were doing bad imitations of the Vancouver cast.

[@coreylineberry8557]

0:04 I'd recognize that Hercules trailer any day. Sits comfortably between an ad for ABC Saturday Mornings and a live-action 101 Dalmatians on the VHS of Toy Story.

[@KrytenXBP]

Meanwhile in Australia, basically every VCR had a toggle for PAL, SECAM and NTSC.

Same with the uk

[@cbgray]

What a journey!! Thank you for your efforts!

[@dennisbergkamp17]

Dude I LOVE obscure Dragon Ball stuff like this. Many thanks my man. This was super insightful and entertaining.

[@SeifTiam-kj2rx]

Oh hey, you're the one who published that remaster of this film. I want to thank you as it is the bases for a fandub I been working on

[@HustlerHorstRuediger]

Oh wow. Thank you for bringing this one back. 🙏

[@munsonVA]

11:56 I wasn't aware you went and remastered the Greatest Rivals! I tried doing something similar but with the French 4:3 DVD Footage from both movies for the Greatest Rivals Promo they had. The credits I tried making were nowhere near as impressive and authentic as yours! haha

[@fatfoxclown]

harmony gold was mine never had a tape but I remember quite a bit fondly think it changed my life in a big way when it came back in 95 it was a miracle

[@adrian_veidt]

The revenge of cooler/Greatest rivals movie aired in Philippines in ABS-CBN(channel 2) aired in sunday evening at 9:00 pm( if I remember it correctly). The movie was my introduction to Dragonball. After this movie, another local network in RPN 9 aired Dragonball Z and later the OG dragonball. Z aired during sunday afternoon and dragonball was weekdays afternoon. Both series went into hiatus and then GMA 7 picks it up. It would air dragonball and Dragonball Z weekdays on prime time schedule. Z would immediately start on namek saga. It was weird cause I only know Goku as a grown up. So when I saw kid goku, I thought he's a separate character. @14:33 I remember that movie, it was bundled with Yuyu Hakusho ova, The golden seal(Ghost fighter in Philippines)

[@toonami1338]

Why did this take so long to show up in my recommended?

[@MaxBraver555]

Fun Fact: same group did the English dub of anime Akazukin Cha Cha on Cartoon Network South East Asia

[@PikaLink91]

Personally, I don't see preservation like you have done as piracy.

[@SeifTiam-kj2rx]

If you can't find a film or show in legal ways then it isn't piracy.

[@samuel-wankenobi]

It's not piracy if it isn't officially available

[@SpinelessVermin]

​@@samuel-wankenobiNintendo would definitely disagree with that

[@honeycrisp808]

This was amazing!! What a story man.

[@RakaiThwei]

Nice use of the Project A-ko soundtrack here!

[@CD-Gaming]

Interesting sidenote, at least to me, when I first made my custom Yu-Gi-Oh! deck, the 12 Devas, and made my first video for KZbin showcasing it 12 years ago now (man, I'm old...), most, if not all, the images I used for the art I uploaded onto Card Maker for the proxies was from the Philippines dub of Digimon Tamers that I found and scoured through here on KZbin! I have no idea if any of the episodes are still up, though, it'd be interesting to revisit, mind!

[@suppengroove]

4:10 they're not rare at all btw. especially late PAL machines could pretty much all play ntsc tapes. and a power converter for said vcr would be the smallest problem to come buy...probably even locally :)

[@raziel2854]

Bless you man.

[@MadDogSolo]

Shit is crazy, won’t be surprised if there’s more dubs out there, maybe not even in English that aren’t known about. From what I know there’s a Korean English educational dub or something

[@BasementDweller_]

Groovy outcome.

[@fokof6169]

This was weird quest bro but i respect the hustle

[@jasonputman-9396]

This is awesome! I collect anime VHS for US releases and there isnt much in the way of lost media aside from obscure TV broadcasts etc. Love seeing actual releases such as this being found decades later and enjoyed!

[@FumeiComTV]

There is actually a lot of stuff that came out in the US in danger of becoming lost! Particularly stuff that came out in the early 80s, I may make a video about such titles in the future!

[@jasonputman-9396]

@@FumeiComTV I was referencing VHS releases but would love to know more about them if the lost media you are talking about is VHS!

[@bluebaron6858]

I wish you had the later DiC dub of saint Seiya knights of the zodiac eps 29, 30, 33-40

[@matthewradaza9761]

As a filipino i never knew that this was a thing i grew up in dbz in the 2000s not the 90s so this was a shocked that this vhs was a thing thanks man love the vid

[@scoobydouche9991]

It's a huge shame you got less than 30,000 views despite the effort and quality of this video

[@natwel1544]

I got a king cat catalogue, the VHS was £25 and had 3 on each VHS.

[@victorbarbosa6341]

Cara que situação engraçada, muitos dos Vhs brasileiros tiveram uma ótima dublagem, o filme do bardok, do cooler, do broly, o da árvore do poder, todos tiveram Vhs. Fico surpreso que o Brasil abraçou mais do Dragon ball do que os EUA. Otimo vídeo sobre a história underground do Dragon ball nós Estados Unidos. Parabéns!!!

[@renny9879]

you and others like you are heros to the world of anime lovers

[@shiina4861]

wonderful vid

[@tagaEskinita]

There was also an English Dub of DB and DBZ from PH which came out around 1993, the RPN 9 Dragon Ball.. Not much remains of it, thats another lost media

[@nickbeach7340]

has anyone taken the HD version of the original movies and edited them to mirror greatest rivals?

[@rawh7466]

man i wish i got involved in the community more, like i live in new zealand and have the equipment to record an ntsc tape 💀

[@johnconnor7501]

I wanted to see and hear some of those first 25 episodes that where dubed 😢

[@jerryartdude4859]

well, wonder you would found dragon ball kai ocean dub too

[@OG-TurtleSchool]

what I find interesting is the regal vhs you have there has two copyright warnings on the back one for the Philippines and one for the US and it also has a other regal name on the back called regal capital which is a studio in California that released Philippine movies so this tape was also available in the united states

[@wicked39]

[@andrewisjesus]

If anybody knows where I can find those real media file episodes of Dragon Ball z that are rips of the anime Labs tapes, please hit me up. I've been looking for those for many years. I used to have almost every episode of Dragon Ball z in that real media format back in the day and overtime I just lost track of them and it's hard to find the tapes now

[@starwindamada5313]

Now we just need Big Green

[@dealpha3698]

I never knew we were the first to dub Dragon Ball watching it in the mid 90s I always thought that this dub came from Western country.

3:46 No, today’s standards are not a good measure of quality whatsoever, as they’re overly critical to the point that they refuse to look at something from a bygone era with an open mind. As long as you tell what’s happening, VHS quality is good.

[@FredeeG90]

Question about the English dubs: So there are 2 versions of dbz that the voices and script are the same, only differences are the Bruce Falconer score on one of them and the other has a different one. I also found that toonami on cartoon network aired the ocean dub during the boo saga? But I thought the ocean only did their dub up to some point in the saiyan saga?

[@FumeiComTV]

Later DVD releases put the Japanese music over the Funimation dub, those Toonami Boo saga recordings are from Toonami UK, Toonami in the US only aired the Funimation produced Ocean dub that goes up to Goku confronting the Ginyu Force
