I apologize for a bit of a delay this time around. @Othello@hexbear.net will be taking a hiatus from Hexbear to redirect focus to local organizing efforts. For the time being, I will be taking over the posting of EM POC weekly threads.

With that aside, how’s everyone doing? Any exciting news, funny memes or stories, or interesting takes? We’d love to hear it all!

Remember, EM POC only!

    While back watched all of the Latino dub of DBZ, pretty great but trying to watch it through official channels like Netflix left me wanting. Maybe Crunchyroll gots it but I ain’t paying for another subscription. Really brought me back to my time in Mexico when I was younger so that was fun not to mention it’s pretty damn faithful to the original even if they keep calling the solar flare kaioken

      same, i finished rewatching DBZ a month ago. easier to understand (plus i got to watch a lot of episodes that i had never watched before)

      even if they keep calling the solar flare kaioken

      lol i never really got that. get the same vibe from calling the makankosappo “special beam cannon”; the original japanese name sounds so much better in anime

        agreed on both points keep hearing how free the latino dubbing scene was like I still got a soft spot for 4kids and funimation but when things get removed since fear of the audience not getting it I get annoyed. one thing off the top of my head was ginyu and jeeece introducing themselves with kabuki theater music playing in the original that the latino dub kept, their poses make so much more sense with it
