So Funimation announced that Super (and Kai: The Final Chapters) is airing on Toonami in January, but Toonami Asia is also airing an entirely separate dub made by L.A.-based Bang! Zoom Entertainment in the same month.

Is anybody in that region able to record and capture it whole it airs? I would like to preserve the audio, lossless if possible. It will likely never get released on home video, which is why for Dragon Ball fans it’s important to preserve this from the get-go.

We have been looking, without success, for someone in the region who would be able to record it for us. 😕

It is extremely rare for Asian-market English dubs to make it to video anywhere (Cardcaptor Sakura is a counterexample). This would be important to capture for preservation.

My friends have been reaching out as well and have proven unsuccessful too. I’m hoping somebody will turn up soon.

Some more counterexamples include the Filipino-made English dubbed versions of Voltes V and Daimos which were released on VCD but only in the Philippines.

The box sets were apparently holy grails for anime fans, which is why I first heard of these box sets.

And I’ve loved every pixel of it.
