![]() It's only towards the end of Dragon Ball Z that I believe this starts to changed. I think that drew me more to the English dub. Even as a kid I felt this was a Dragon Ball thing and not an overall Japanese thing either. ![]() The originally Japanese soundtrack doesn't at all in a lot of cases. The music really did elevate a lot of scenes and got across just how dangerous or how action packed a scene or fight was. But no, had to steal from James Horner, Danny Elfman, a Captain Tsubasa SFC game, and that's not even getting into Battle Point Unlimited from the original DBZ.Ĭlick to shrink.I think this is it. It's a shame Yamamoto was a plagiarist because those tracks were really really good. Though I feel it works better with the original DBZ than with DBZ Kai, where it was so sloppily put together because they had to rush it after Yamamoto got caught stealing. It has misfires, but it also has a lot of great stuff. Is Kikuchi's soundtrack perfect? Hell no. That and they'll never work with Faulconer again after he tried to sue them (and he lost). I'm glad Funimation has moved past replacing the entire soundtrack, leaving things as intended. Sure there are some decent tracks, but they lose merit when you learn that Faulconer didn't compose them, he took credit and it wasn't until years later we learned the real composers. The mood is always wrong, and it keeps blaring during quieter moments. I cringe every time I see a clip with the Faulconer soundtrack.
