Overview
In February 2009, Toei Animation announced that it would begin broadcasting a revised version of Dragon Ball Z as part of the series’ 20th anniversary celebrations. The series premiered on Fuji TV in Japan on April 5, 2009, under the name Dragon Ball Kai (ドラゴンボール改(カイ) Doragon Bōru Kai?, lit. “Dragon Ball Revised”). The ending suffix Kai (改「かい」?) in the name means “updated” or “altered” and reflects the improvements and corrections of the original work.[ The original footage was remastered for HDTV, featuring updated opening and ending sequences, and a rerecording of the vocal tracks. The footage was also re-edited to more closely follow the manga, resulting in a faster-moving story, and damaged frames were removed.
Length 30 minutes
