I was trying to watch TV anyway, and there it was "Watch this brand-new show! Dragon Ball!" (I wonder what channel it was on.). I was six, and I must've been up too early, cuz I remember thinking "Aw, man.

I actually think a lot of what I do in terms of research and documentation is a part of that chasing/feeling: I want to make it easier for other people who want to look things up, and my own process of research and fact-checking is a good mirror/parallel of my original getting into the series and learning all about it. It wasn't like that when I first got into the series, and a lot of times I feel like I'm still kinda chasing that feeling of wonder. It's so easy to take for granted these days how much we have, we know, and can readily get. but there was definitely something a little magical (a mystical adventure, even?!) about having so little available to me and having to really put in an absurd amount of self-motivated effort to learn and consume. like, I literally couldn't imagine something like that. It's not necessarily something I wish on other people, because the fact that they can just. My wife got into it with the 1995 DB broadcast, and she's definitely talked on the podcast from time to time about how wild it was to learn that the Goku in DBZ was that same Goku from DB all grown up with his own family, but then it was the same experience as me with meeting other anime fans, learning things online, reading magazines, etc. (My season one memories are of setting the VCR to record and checking it out later.! ) My local season two broadcast was later in the morning on Sundays, I think from 9 to 10, so it was extremely reasonable. I moved around a lot, so over that span of 1996-1998 of the DBZ syndication broadcast, I probably checked it out at like three or four different timeslots. The timeslots of the day were wildly different from region to region and channel to channel. It was definitely disappointing to not have the ability to see the series in full, but I was able to get up to speed on the situation from fansites and newsgroups and magazines. That said, the DB broadcast actually kept re-airing into the fall 1996 season (yes, alongside DBZ!), and the tapes were widely available, so it still felt very contemporary to me at the time. I came in with DBZ in 1996, so I juuuuuust missed the original DB broadcast in 1995.

They're no doubt nostalgic to many and a piece of Dragon Ball history more generally.įor anyone who lived in the US, or even Canada (who also aired it on YTV) in the mid 90s did you see Funimation's first dub of episodes 1-13 of original Dragon Ball? What was it like discovering the show at such unusual timeslots? Was it your first anime experience? Were you disappointed it was cut so short only for a full 140 episodes to be skipped when the series returned? Did you see the Harmony Gold dub first and feel pleasantly surprised this show returned? Did you ever feel not having that cast for the full 153 episodes of the series was a missed opportunity?Īny other memories or thoughts on this initial airing are also welcome. It's nice to see recordings like this are out there.
It's the OP and ED to the BLT dub, as it aired on the 9th of September 1995 on WUHF, virtual channel 31, a Fox-affiliated station in Rochester, New York, owned by the Sinclair Broadcast Group from Hunt Valley, Maryland. Just came across this while browsing through Youtube.
