I'm more curious as to how the ratings are in Japan. I don't know whether or not it'd be a shame if this ended up being cancelled before it was finished.

Honestly, I only care about this for curiosity's sake, and that's in terms of what's going to be changed and by changed I mean cut. So far the only major change we've had is the horrible Bardock introduction. But other than that, it's all been minor snippets here and there. Since these first few episodes are so full of needed story elements, not much is going to be cut. So my only draw to this series is just to see what isn't there, which is a bad sign, but I think I'll find myself more interested when they get into more filler-heavy areas of the show, just to see what they do with it.
