MasqueradeOverture

Godfuckingdammit that could've slapped. This arc's one big missed opportunity.

My god this arc is getting worse by the episode, like someone sharpening a blade of cringe and twisting it into where the esophagus meets the stomach. Not musical episode of Space Dandy-level awful, but close. Dangerously close.

Nah, just makes it all the more believable. Like a good prank.

You were shook as an infant, were you?

I forgot to do my yearly "Jason DeMarco has passed away" prank. DAMMIT.

Man the 2nd half of S4 is a mistake. Might just wait around for S5 instead of subjecting myself to this "yippie!" filler nonsense. How are Bones compared to other studios in terms of tech & worker conditions? Would they be more likely to give their employees the necessary hardware to work remotely?

TWD sucks ass.

Episode 29 - Brood Of Evil up: This one was also a bitch to do since I was digging through footage of like 5 separate episodes. Especially for the recap, I inserted some extra 'Vegeta in the tank' scenes I didn't include in the previous episode in order to meet my ideal runtime window (I was running like two minutes short otherwise so I had to pad the recap out). Otherwise, this was an interesting experiment in replacing 30th footage with Kai's whenever possible (the flat image of the DVNR'd 30th set makes my eyes hurt after a while) and then switching back and forth and adjusting contrast and color accordingly to (at least attempt) a seamless transition. Check ur PMs.

It's time for the production committees... to end.

Honestly they should've just made the first two OVA's and then Okuda fire a gun into his mouth.

Also fuck Shippuden.

I kinda don't like the modern Sunrise house look for UC stuff (except Unicorn and Thunderbolt, they have good style / color contrast).

Now And Then, Here And There

Episode 28 - Friends Or Foes? up: This was hard to cut (took 3 episodes worth of filler and grabbed anything salvageable to smash into one). Safe to say none of that Fake Namek nonsense made it (which we can all agree is the worst filler arc in the entire franchise, right?).

Everyone dies, all graves eventually go unattended, etc.

Opposite. People hunkered together will be so sick of each other that divorce rates will go through the roof, prompting either a genophage or a ton of children conceived in bar bathrooms who will never know who their father is.

I'm going the FUCK on vacation once this lockdown is over.

Man I wanna see some old school cel painted stuff show up. Throw on Escaflowne or something. That shit still looks crisp.

Episode 27 - Journey To Namek up: There's a scene towards the end where I inserted some Bach. This is one of the rare cases I'll ever use music outside of the DB library.

It's better than the Tumbler.

Thanks for the feedback. I have a lot of this ready to go. Piccolo will be the only Kai version once I get to the Nail fusion (I don't believe there are any lines that will force me to use the original, but if there are I'll just use some EQ and pitch correction for those instances). Frieza's 2nd form-onwards is getting the voice change. Linda's good for sitting in a chair and scheming, but when it comes to battle I feel Chris is more imposing, and that first transformation seems like the best time to switch over now that I've thought about it. When it comes to the Garlic Jr. Saga voices... *shrug*. At least all Vegeta's lines were redubbed, which was the main deciding factor in pulling the trigger for that saga anyways. Another thing I did (really a pure nostalgia thing more than anything) was add reverb to Kyle Hebert's narration... but it's not gonna last the whole series. The Ocean dub (and subsequently Dale Kelly's for the first few episodes in the Ginyu saga) had reverb in the narrators voice until the body-swap episode where the reverb effect was just dropped and never heard again. Same thing's gonna happen here.
