Dragon Ball Z Kai

The awkward sounding title of the remastered Dragon Ball Z series. They actually managed to keep their promise and cut the 291 episodes to 100 episodes to make it truer to the manga and (but mostly to) make a profit . People annoyed by drawn out battle sequences like spirit bomb charging see this as a gift from heaven. Due to changes in Japanese TV laws (I think) there is less blood and super violent scenes, but this also means the American version has less edits as well. New scenes and animation have been spliced into the original to make up for filler among other reasons. Some filler still exists in the new series b/c they couldn't condense the manga into a perfect 100 episodes.

Fan 1: OMG! Piccolo's blood is purple this time!
Fan 2: What blood! Raditz had a hole in his stomach and I saw no blood! Why does Piccolo have blood?!?

Fan 3: No filler! Dragon Ball Z Kai is so awesome!
Fan 4: Yeah there is!!! Right there! (Points to screen making permanent smudge on new tv) See it?
Guy: STFU!

Random Fan: Awesome fight! Perfect length! YES! (Jumps up and down and charges a kamehameha)
