This is a project done with love for Dragon Ball. (Yes, some people like Dragon Ball GT.) The project got started because all official releases of Dragon Ball have not so clear audio. So when we got our hands on Japanese television broadcast audio we decided to sync it to the Dragon Boxes. And since sangofe’s a timing nerd who’s obsessed with good timing, he retimed the scripts. Names have also been changed to be consistent with some of our favorite releases of various Dragon Ball series’. On top of this we have edited in missing stutters and even translated some missing lines.

Note: The Dragon Box video here was a bit of a pain to encode and certainly is not perfect, though funnily enough the audio is actually decent here. Go figure! The entire special is affected by the same tape transfer error as the OP for episodes 27-51 (I think that’s right), however it wasn’t possible to fix it here. Instead slight filtering was done to alleviate some of the issues and improve the color levels. Ports of the OP were fixable in the same manner as the other episodes we’ve done but more credits scenes had to be left messy since the credit titles are different for the special than previous episodes. Anyway, please enjoy.
