Okay, folks, let's talk about something near and dear to my heart (and maybe yours): Dragon Ball Super. Specifically, the complete series on Blu-ray.
Now, I know what you're thinking. "Is it worth it?" Well, grab your Senzu beans, because I'm about to drop some truth bombs. And maybe a controversial opinion or two.
The Shiny, Shiny Discs: A Visual Feast?
First things first: the visuals. Is it an upgrade from streaming? Absolutely. The colors pop like Vegeta's temper tantrums, and the details are sharper than Piccolo's hearing.
But here's my unpopular opinion: does it *really* look THAT much better? I mean, we're not talking about a jump from VHS to 4K here. It's… good. Very good. But maybe not "sell your car" good.
The Price Tag: Ouch!
Let's be real, this Blu-ray set ain't cheap. It's more expensive than a lifetime supply of instant ramen (and we all know how important instant ramen is to Dragon Ball fans).
So, is the price justified? That's where things get tricky. It depends on how much of a completionist you are. And how much you value physical media in this digital age.
The Extras: Are They Super Saiyan God-Level?
The extras are where things get interesting. We're talking interviews, maybe some behind-the-scenes stuff, and probably a whole lot of promotional material. It's fun to watch.
However, let's not kid ourselves. Are these extras going to change your life? Probably not. Will they give you a new appreciation for Goku's screaming? Maybe.
The Feeling of Owning It: Priceless?
There's something undeniably cool about owning the entire series in a physical format. It feels… official. Like you've truly committed to the Dragon Ball lifestyle.
You can proudly display it on your shelf, right next to your Dragon Ball Z figures. Plus, it's there even if your internet goes down. Take that, streaming services!
The Unpopular Opinion: Is It Worth It?
Okay, here it comes. Brace yourselves. My unpopular opinion: the Dragon Ball Super Complete Series Blu-ray is… maybe not essential for EVERY fan.
If you're a die-hard collector, then absolutely, go for it. But if you're on a tight budget, or you're perfectly happy with streaming, you're not missing out on the biggest thing.
However, let's remember, owning the complete series gives you the power to binge-watch at will. You can watch it all! Without the risk of a streaming service suddenly taking it down.
Final Verdict: Train Like Goku, Buy Smart
Ultimately, the decision is yours. Weigh the pros and cons. Consider your budget. And ask yourself: "How much do I REALLY love Dragon Ball Super?"
If the answer is "enough to break the bank," then go for it! Just don't blame me when you're eating instant ramen for the next six months. But you'll have a fantastic Blu-ray, worthy of a spot in your collection.
Now, if you'll excuse me, I'm going to go rewatch the Tournament of Power. In glorious, slightly-better-than-streaming quality.
