Is the DBZ fanbase dead?And is Anime at an all time low in theUS?
DBZ will never die its like pokemon its been a part of most peoples lives for to long. To me its like Scooby-Doo or Tom and Jerry i might not watch them all the time but they will forever be some of my fav show of all time. But ya anime on tv is at a decline i belive there are few of them on then back in the day.
" I don't know about you but it kinda feels like that.... "I don't know about you, but I am still waiting for vol 8 of Hellsing to come out in the spring for the OVA.
Nah, the fanbase for DB is still strong worldwide. They have some of the most loyal fans out of any anime, and the American distributors try their best to put out stuff licensed in Japan for the fans like the recent Dragon Box.
I wouldn't say anime is at an all-time low, it's actually progressing very well. Even if it wasn't, who gives a crap about the US in regard to anime?
" @OmegaDynasty: I thought they arent even on OVA 6 yet? And god damn them for not dubbing OVA 5. "I think they did dub it. Yes, they are getting too part 8. It was promised to be released at the end of 2010. It didn't, people were angry. Although, a new trailer says it's coming out this Spring. Apparently the company that was working on went bankrupt or sold out, so another company is picking it up from there. I can't wait to see it, Alucard is going to release restrictions to 0. lol
Geneon is the company you are thinking of, and yes, they went bankrupt. Funimation I believe picked up the rights, and I have seen hide nor hair of the 5th OVA dubbed anywhere over here in the states. I dont know why they are taking so long with the dub, I really want to see the rest of the series even though I already read the manga.

"Well, it's Funimation..so they may have other projects they're working on and putting Hellsing on the back burner..well the dub anyways. Just be glad it didn't go to 4kids, the place where anime goes to die. Although, I don't think they could handle something like Hellsing. They would have to edit so much stuff. lol

This is the off topic, it only mentions a decline in popularity characters(not battles featuring said characters), and makes no mention of Marvel or DC.
This has nothing to do with Battles Forums as far as I can tell.
" @Decoy Elite: dude... "What? I only stated facts.
I don't see how anyone gets "Why aren't there DBZ vs threads?" from the OP of this thread.

" @Decoy Elite: I wasen't..writting about that...I was going to mention that you have a new avi. "Oh. Yeah, I stole it from Merc's images.
@RLAAMJR: By that logic every thread that involves how popular a character is, is actually about how often they're used in the Battles Forums.
That is clearly not the case.

What i'm trying to say is that it's also one thing that should be taken into consideration when we talk about DBZ's popularity.

The new rules suck.....
So no more Godzilla vs Batman stuff and no more Goku vs Superman stuff jsut because people on here hate Anime/DBZ logic....... How mature...

Meh.....Storm fans....
DBZ's fanbase isn't dead.I don't personally know anyone who still likes DBZ but there are still people out there.It's because most of the people I watched DBZ with growing up have grown up and become aware that DBZ's storylines are mediocre and redundant and the art style is a joke.

your opinion but I respect it....
" @RLAAMJR: I have a feeling about where you're going with this and it is a place that is filled with headaches for me. "lol.",)
What i'm sayin is that it's the people that makes DBZ popular. People won't talk about DBZ if they don't know (even just a little ) about DBZ. And.... Ok. let's not continue discussing.",)
