- Wow...can you believe the
year 2000 is almost over? I sure can't.
It's been a tremendous year for the ToT, so thanks to
the fans who keep coming back here for more weirdness!
Time flies when you're having fun! I want to apologize
in advance, because I wanted to have some Trunks movie
clips from the last dub episode up today. Sadly,
my capture card decided to stop working, so I'm pretty
much screwed until I can fix it. What I can promise
is a neat surprise that will be up tomorrow, if things
go as planned. Now, on with the goodies I *was*
able to make!
- Android 18 has gone through
all of her Trunks Fanfics submissions, and I posted
a few of the written works up. The reason why
only a few of the new submissions are posted is because
several people didn't write their own names on their
fanfics. If you don't see yours listed, please
contact Android
18 and tell her which one you wrote.
Once we figure out who wrote what, I'll post the rest.
- I've added 6 Philippine sounds
to the Trunks Around the World section!
- New predictions have been
added to Look into the Future.
- A couple of new quotes are
in up Sexuality of Trunks. Submissions
for this section have been uh...pretty lackluster lately...that's
why there aren't so many posted ^_^.
Saturday, 12/30/00
- How I adore looking outside
the window to see the world covered in beautiful snow....yeah,
a whole friggin' foot of it. Needless to say,
I'm stuck indoors for awile, seeing as how I can't dig
my car out of my driveway. It's a cold winter's
day, but maybe these nice new Trunks
Screencaps will warm you up! 35 Trunks
images from DBZ Movie 7 have been added to Movie
Images- Page 1. Enjoy! Since
I'll be home all day, I'll probably add a new batch
of fanfics later on.
- Well....yesterday was the
last appearance of Mirai Trunks in the dub. Ah,
Trunks, we harldy knew ye! But fear not!
Chibi Trunks will be on the way with the new episodes...god
only knows when those will air. Anycrap,
I'll later add some movie clips of when Trunks goes
back to the future and kicks some Android bootie.
If you can't wait till then, I already have those clips
in Japanese in my Movies
section.
Thursday, 12/28/00
- Aww, I'm so sad
to see the holidays pass, but at least the time was
a joyous one! I got lots of neat stuff, like a
brand new video capture card *drool* (I've spent the
last 2 days trying to get it to work, which is why I
haven't updated). The weirdest thing I got above
all was a surprise gag gift from my grandma: a
Trunks pillow. *sweatdrops* It's kinda funny looking,
so I'll post a pic of it (using my mom's new digital
camera, huzzah!) sometime when I get bored. I
hope y'all had a good holiday,too! On with the
update.
- 10 beautiful images have been
posted in Trunks Doujinshi- Page 2 under
"Misc. Doujinshi Pics." As you might
be able to see, I re-organized the Doujinshi section
so that all the Contributed and Misc. Piics are on one
page, and the stories are on another. This should
make things load faster.
- Trunks goes back to the future
today on dub DBZ, for all those who don't know.
Look for a nice moment between Vegeta and Trunks.
I'll probably have a movie clip of it up later today
or tomorrow.
- Since I got a new capture
card, expect some better quality Trunks pics from DBZ
movies 7 & 9 in the coming days. I'm gonna
go play with my new X-Mas toys some more, so bye! *fries
brain playing The Sims*
X-Mas, 12/25/00
- Happy holidays, everybody!
I hope you're having an awesome winter break so far.
As you can see just by looking...the ToT is looking
different. That's right, that is the ToT X-Mas
present I was talking about! I've had the old
layout up since May, so I figured it was time to do
something different. Kinda looks like "ToT
Does Las Vegas", huh? I kept the colors the
same, because I like them (and it would be a hassle
to change *all* of the sub-pages). Oh, speaking
of which, I changed the layouts to the main sub-sections,
too (Humor, Media, etc). Now, they have descriptions
for each section, so you know what you'll be in for
when you click on the links. The only thing I
didn't change was the look for the sub-sub-pages, since
those are already pretty basic.
Now, in addition to the main layout
and menu changes, I also altered a few other things.
First the Trunks Cels sub-section has been moved
to Images. I got rid of the "Trunks'
First Appearance" section cuz, well, I needed the
server space. I have also retired the Survey section.
It was getting pretty hard to come up with Trunks-related
questions over the course of three years, so I decided
to discontinue that.
Well, that's the surprise! I
hope you like the new layout, and find it aesthetically
pleasing and helpful. I'll probably make some
more modifications to it in the coming days, though.
I hope you have a very Merry Christmas!
- What? You thought the
new layout would be the ONLY surprise I'd have for you!?
Get real! When the ToT delivers the goods, the
ToT does it with a bang! And here is that bang.
Coming within weeks: An Interview With Eric Johnson
(the voice actor of Trunks, for all ya punk-asses who
didn't know that)!! Yes indeed! I've finally
contacted the man, and he's agreed to an interview for
this site! We're still working out the details
right now, but I'm sure things will be figured out soon.
Stay tuned for that. It's bound to be really fun,
and a great experience.
- 10 new items have been added
to DBZ Winter
Holiday Stuff!
- For all those who may have
missed it, the new Feature
Film, A Christmas
Carol: DBZ Syle is now up. It's holiday
fun for the whole family!....well....maybe not. ^_^
- Plug: ToT Store! :p
Saturday, 12/23/00
- Wheee! The new Feature Film
has been made! Since the old X-Mas Film was lost
in the server move, a new holiday Film has been made
in it's place. It's called A
Christmas Carol- DBZ Style.
As you can tell from the title, it's a parody of the
classic Charles Dickens story. I hope you enjoy
it!
- I've decided that I just can't
handle submissions for a few sections any more...therefore,
I have gotten some extra help! If you'd like to
submit some Fanart
to the ToT, e-mail your drawings to Dena.
To e-mail your Trunks
Fanfics, please send them to Android
18. I've also gotten a new helper
for "DBZ Never Says", but I'll probably post
the info for that tomorrow.
- The new Version 4.0 download
for The Trunks
Video Game is now available, as well as
an FAQ made by the creator of the game himself.
i highly suggest checking out the FAQ, because I'm sure
it'll prove to be helpful.
- A new winner and sentence
is up in the Random DBZ
Fill in the Blank Contest.
- I'm still working on the ToT
X-Mas Surprise....that'll be on on Monday. Buwahaha!
Wednesday, 12/20/00
- My gosh, did you see DBZ today?
Veggie-chan showed....feelings towards his son! *sniff*
Kinda gets ya right where it hurt, doesn't it?
Even though they edited out Trunks' little nasty scene
(and deservedly so *shudder*) I like how that
scene was handled in the dub better than the original
version. So sue me, I like the fact that Vegeta
went on about his boy. It's more interesting that way.
Anycrap, on with the update.
- Darci-san has added a *wonderful*
new addition to her Trunks Time Collection with the
story "Christmas Time Trunks". You can
find it in the Fan Manga section.
Will Trunks get who he wants for X-Mas? You'll
have to go and see for yourself. ^_^
- Whoops, I goofed when I made
yesterday's screencaps update. I forgot to move
the previeous new addtions to different sections.
So, to find the previous batch before yesterday's group,
here are some links: the previous new Long Haired
Mirai Trunks screencaps are here,
and the previous new Short Hair Mirai Trunks caps are
here.
Tuesday, 12/19/00
- Yep, Trunks got killed today,
hot damn. Doesn't he have a neat death?
Cell just shows up and ZAP! Thar he blows.
Anywho, you can find the movie clip up
Trunks' death up here.
For comparison's sake, here is the Japanese
version of Trunks' death. I'm more
than certain that the scene when Trunks coughs up blood
will be cut out tomorrow. It's really pretty gross
:P If you want to see the original version of
that particular scene, check it out here.
4:35 pm
- YES!!! All my finals are over!
A month off from school! Huzzah am I. To
celebrate, I've added a whopping 100 images to the Trunks
Screencaps section. What I've done
was that I re-made the entire Trunks TV Special portion,
using the "History of Trunks" video as a source.
These pics are really high quality (and pretty large),
so I hope you'll enjoy viewing them as much as I liked
making them!
- A new pic is now up for the
Trunks POTW.
- Still working on the secret
ToT X-Mas surprise, blah...
Saturday, 12/16/00
- I've had 3 final exams in
2 days. As you can imagine, I feel half dead.
*sigh* Only one more to go, and I get a month off from
school! Anywho, on with the update.
- I've finally gotten rid of
that crappy Ezboard! My pals Arcada, Cat, Lunch,
Anzu, Android 17 and I have dug up some dough and decided
to buy an Ultimate Bulletin Board! It's very spiffy
so far, but we have a lot more fun things we wanna add
to it. Check out the new message
board!
- A lot of new Too Much Trunks- Page
2 quotes are now up.
Thursday, 12/14/00
- Holy crap, Too Much Trunks-
Page 2 has been updated! It's been
months, huh? These are submitted entried up until
August 2000. Trunkstar7
hasn't gotten around to editing the rest yet.
Keep in mind the the ones I just posted is only HALF
of the total quotes that have to go up. I'll post
the second half tomorrow. Well, I got two finals
tomorrow that I should be studying for, so I am off.
:P
Wednesday, 12/13/00
- With Gohan's transformation
episode airing on t.v. yesterday, I was able to remake
an old music video of
mine, "Gohan
Transforms to SSJ2- Spirit vs Spirit"
(Version 2.0). The quality of this one is great,
even if the stupid CN logo in the corner. The
only major change I made was that for the scene when
#16 gets killed, I used the Japanese version insted
of the English verion, since the dub one was slightly
edited. Enjoy!
- Before I make this next update,
I would like to say that I did not steal this idea from
Planet
Namek (I was simply reminded that I had
signed up for something I forgot about :P). I
signed up for an account with CafePress months ago, at the
suggestion of a friend, but never did anything with
it cuz I was too lazy to make the merchandise.
But, when PN said they were making shirts, I remebered
that I could do that, too. So I whiped up some
purty thangs, and made some fun ToT stuff. With
that said, here goes the sales pitch:
"Looking for that perfect gift
to give to your favorite Trunks fan for the upcoming
holidays? Or maybe you'd like to buy some stuff
from your fave Trunks site for yourself? Then
the ToT Store
is for you! Here, you'll find Temple O' Trunks
shirts (even a Baby-Tee!), mugs and a mouse pad.
With the winter season in full swing, now is the best
time to get your very own ToT merchandise. Come
on, all the cool kids are doing it! (ok, maybe not ALL
the cool kids. ^_-) Check it out today."
End sales pitch. :P Right now, there are two designs,
but I hope to have more made soon.
- Curent status of the ToT
X-Mas surprise: 30%. You know what they say about being
slow and steady...blah, I hate finals week.
Tuesday, 12/12/00
- Today was the day, huh? Gohan
goes SSJ2! I can safely say I never thought I'd see
this on U.S. tv. My opinion? The beginning of the major
scene started off *awesome*. Nearly perfect translation,
good acting...yeah....even the editing of the smooshing
of #16's head was well done. But then it went downhill
the moment Gohan snapped. But you don't need me to tell
you the rest. I'd tell you to go download whatever clips
of this scene I made, but I can't, since I'm not home
right now. I'm making this update from VegettoEX's place,
so this is kinda a pain in my butt. But speaking of
him, he's already gone and posted a mad hot MPEG of
the scene at his site. Go check it out!
Monday, 12/11/00
- Aw yeah baby. One of
the most dramatic moments in the history of DBZ will
air tomorrow on Cartoon Network. You know I'm
talking about the transformation of Gohan, of course.
I have no doubt that the scene'll be butched, but I
really look forward to seeing how it will be handled.
I hope that Stephanie chick knows how to scream.
^_^ If you would like to see this wonderful scene
in Japanese before watching it in English, you can download
it here
(ok, so this clip isn't how the scene *exactly* goes.
It's been slightly re-edited to be like a music vid,
but it still gets the point across that nothing beats
the original version).
- A lot of new items have been
added to A Look Into
the Future. Now there's a section
that hasn't been updated in awhile...
- In Trunks Doujinshi,
I've posted a couple of new Miscellaneous Trunks pics.
One is downright adorable, while two are...downright
scary.
- Progress on the ToT X-Mas
Surprise: about 20% or so. Damn finals week, keeping
me busy. :P
Sunday, 12/3/00
- Updated Scans- Page 2 with
some new images from the Cell and Freeza Sagas.
They're so purty. ^_^
- The ToT contributed some small
info to a Australian kids magazine called K-Zone.
There's a DBZ article in it all about "the new
kid on the block" called *gasp* Trunks!
I'll have some scans of that up soon. It's corny
in an amusing kind of way. I'm just glad I was
able to help in my small little way (even though they
didn't give me any credit, hehehe...-_-;).
Saturday, 12/2/00
- Aw yeah baby, the Real Video
version of Trunks Music Video:
Heart of Sword is now up. This is all
y'all peeps who wanna download an ok quality, 5.8 MB
file instead of the huge ass mpeg files. Enjoy!
Friday, 12/1/00
- Ah, I'm so happy this new
Music Video is
done! It's by far the best quality video I've ever made
(hehe, sorry that the file sizes are huge), and it's
just dang cool. What is it? Why it's the Trunks Music Video:
Heart of Sword- Version 4.0. Please check it
out! I don't think you'll be dissappointed. it kicks
so much more ass than the old versions, yup yup. I'll
have a RealVideo version of the video up sometime later
today. Um, I'm making this update from work, so forgive
me if some things are messed up. I'll fix stuff when
I get home. I wanna give a shout out to mah homies at
Setupsite and 7pm,
for all your web hosting needs! *end plug*
Thursday, 11/30/00
- In the Games section,
a fun little activity called Trunks
Puzzles has been added. This is like
those games where you get a messed up image, and you
have to move the squares around in order to get the
picture back to normal. So far, there are 8 puzzles
to choose from. Enjoy!
Wednesday, 11/29/00
- A spiffy new Fan Manga called
"Trunks Learns the Spirit Bomb" is now up.
Heheh, it's not what you might it will be.....
- Updated the Random Pic of the
Week with a funny lil' screencap.
- Added 2 songs and a Trunks
pic by Darci-san to DBZ
Winter Holiday Stuff!
- Right now, I'm working on
a new and super neato spiffy version of the Trunks "Heart
of Sword" music video. It looks *really*
good so far, and I hope to have it up here in the next
2 days. I hope you'll check it out cuz it's really
a lot better than the old version. :)
Monday, 11/27/00
- I've added 37 new large and
purty Trunks Screencaps!
I really like how this batch turned out.
The majority of them are better versions of old, crappy,
fansub-made images, so I hope you'll check these out!
Wow, there are now 500+ screencaps of Trunks here....it's
ok, I'm frightened too. ^_^
Sunday, 11/26/00
- Oh wow, I can't believe how
hard it was to undertake this little task. I went
and re-organized the Trunks Screencaps
section so that is easier to navigate and will
load faster. Now you can look up images by which
version of Trunks you wanna see. Also, I deleted
images that I had more than one of. My original
plan was to make a new batch of pics today, but first
I thought some cleaning of that section was in order.
Maybe I'll have new pics up tomorrow or something. :)
Saturday, 11/25/00
- Ah, that was a nice mini-break.
Now it's back to studying for exams and putting
up fun stuffage, like this! Seeing how December
is right around the corner, I decided to resurrect ye
old DBZ Winter Holiday
Stuff from last year! Have fun looking
at these goods.
- A brand new story called "Walk
This World" (based on the fanfic
of the same name) by Vejita4Eva
has been added to the Fan
Manga section. I highly recommend
checking it out. It looks great so far. ^_^
- Up in Random DBZ
Fill in the Blank Contest, a winner has
been chosen, and a new sentence is now up.
Thursday, 11/23/00
- Happy Thanksgiving, everyone!
As a present from the ToT to you, a new Feature
Film has been made! We seriously
made this on a whim, with next to no planning at all,
but I think you'll enjoy it! It's called A Dragonball Thanksgiving,
kind of a combination Thanksgiving special meets Iron
Chef. Enjoy, and have a good holiday!
Wednesday, 11/22/00
6:05 pm
- Hmm. Mr. Satan is now Hercule.
Oh well, works for me. Anyone who would think
"Mr. Satan" would be allowed on a national
kiddie cable program should get a good slap. His
voice...meh. Better than I was expecting! ^_^
Anywho, here are some random things.
- Added a Kaio-sama Marriage Prospect.
Lord help us all....
- Updated Trunks
POTW with a nice shot of Mirai Trunks looking
messed up.
11:00 am
- Ya know, I was thinking about
writing a review on the two new Dragonball video releases...(here
comes the "but"). But, seeing as how
two competent sites have gone and done such, I don't
think there's any need for me to say anything, although
I will throw in my two cents pretty quickly. First
up, the new Staff
Ramble at GingaGIRIGIRI
places an emphasis on the awful music and mistranslations
of the Bardock TV Special. At DaizenshuuEX,
their review
is a compare and contrast editorial between the Bardock
Special and the dub of DB Movie 3. So, if you
want to know about the new tapes before deciding to
buy them or not, please check out the reviews at these
sites. My opinion? The Movie 3 DB dub was
friggin' incredible. Original music, good translation,
and gosh damn it, "Makafushigi Adventure"
was left in! This is probably my new favorite
FUNi dub *ever*. The Bardock Special on the other
hand...while the voice acting was good, the slightly
mangled plot (since when can Bardock read minds?) and
less-than-stellar dialogue made it kinda hard to swallow.
I didn't have anything against the music. I mean,
it was good, but it had no place in a DBZ thing, so
that really ruined the mood of the Special (much like
the "The History of Trunks"). My suggestion:
don't buy the Bardock Special dub. Get the DVD
so you can see it in Japanese (says she who doesn't
even own a DVD player, bah). But, if you wanna
see a GOOD dub, go out and buy DB Movie 3, "Mystical
Adventure". That's all for now!
Tuesday, 11/21/00
- Today is an important date
for new releases, like...the new BSB album! Just
kidding, hehe...but, it is true that some important
DBZ items are coming out today. I have just bought
the dub Bardock TV Special, as well as DB Movie 3.
I've already made 5 movie clips
of some important scenes from the special. To
be honest, I haven't even watched the tape all the way
through yet. C'mon, I got school to go to 'n stuff.
I'll write up a review of it when I have enough time
to give it a good watch. Same goes for the DB
Movie 3 tape. But in the meantime, please cheack
out Lost 80's Dragon
Ball Dub to see how that movie was originally
dubbed before FUNi got their hands on it. Anywho,
please enjoy the Bardock clips I've made so far.
Sunday, 11/19/00
- Here's a section that hasn't
been updated in a while! Trunks
Mad Libs (in the Games
section) has a new Mad Lib added to it called "Famous
DBZ Scene- Rewrite!". I hope to have more
Mad Libs similar to this in the future. Have fun
playing it!
Saturday, 11/18/00
- Exam from hell, over.
Trip to New York from hell, over. Now for the
update from hell! Ok, not really, but it sounded
neat. Here are today's goods. ^_^
- More English translation fun
over in Trunks
Doujinshi thanks to Liz and Co.!
This time, Story #4 of "Golden Lucky 4" has
been translated. It's all about Trunks coming
up with a weird plan in order to make Goku his.
Muwahahaha!
- The 6 preview cards of the
Trunks Saga for the DBZ CCG have been added to the Special Features
section for you to ogle and drool over. Thanks
chibipunk16
for the scans!
Thursday, 11/16/00
- I am preparing for the exam
from hell, but before I drown myself in a sea of books,
lemme add some quick things for ya peeps to enjoy!
- The Sexuality of
Trunks has some sick little quotes added
to it.
- A winner and new sentence
are up in Random DBZ Fill in
the Blank contest!
Wednesday, 11/15/00
- 3 really lovely Trunks Wallpapers
have been added. (I've got one of them on my
compy right now!)
- My main editorial man, Underfaker,
has written 2 new editorials for Enlightened Ones.
Tuesday, 11/14/00
- Back to classes, and back
to site work, woohoo. Today, I got some neat and
original stuff for y'all! Check out 11 new French
Trunks sounds in Trunks
Around the World. In this batch,
you'll find a major cool Mirai Trunks mp3, a crap load
of super kawaii Chibi Trunks sounds, and some downright
*scary* sounds of GT Trunks. Wow, we covered all
areas of Trunks-dom today, huh?
- Whoops, it would appear that
I accidently deleted the Lost
80's Dragon Ball Dub link from the Media menu.
Fret not, it was a mistake on my part, and I
put the link back up. I didn't get rid of that
section. ^_^
Sunday, 11/12/00
- YES! That new music video that
has been delayed for a few days now is finally complete.
it may be late, but boy, it was worth it. I *really*
like how this one turned out, and I hope y'all like
it as much as I liked making it! Behold the new
humor video....Vogue: Strike A Pose!
That's right, as I'm sure you can guess,
this one is all about posing in Dragonball. This
video is also my first real collaboration. VegettoEX
of DaizenshuuEX helped
pick out the clips that were used in the vid 'n such.
You go, boy. Also, if you can't download RealPlayer
files, or just don't like them, you can download an
MPEG of the video at his site sometime in the near future.
Enjoy!
Saturday, 11/11/00
- Darci-san has done it again with
an all-new (and super twisted) Fan
Manga entitled "Shaving Time Trunks".
Yes, it is as odd as it sounds. ^_^
2:00 pm
- Howdy peeps, how y'all been?
I'm mad tired, myself. I had a concert to go to
yesterday (ohh, my boys sound awesome live), 2 tests
last week, and a Saturday morning class I had to drive
to all early only to find that it was cancelled..*sigh*
Oh well, now that all that crap is outta the way, I
can actually make an update! Here goes...
- 6 contributed Trunks Doujinshi
images have been posted! In addition,
Story 8 in "Golden Lucky 4" (the Chibi Trunks
one) has been translated thanks to Liz and Co.!
You can check that out right here.
Wednesday, 11/8/00
- Here's the nifty little surprise
I mentioned yesterday...a new section added to Trunks
Around The World! 7 Philippine Trunks
sounds are now up (and there are 14 more to go, whoa!)
for your listening amusement. Thanks Andrew for supplying these sounds!
I swear, evenually I'll have those Chinese wave files
available!
Thursday, 11/2/00
- For your listening pleasure
(and I mean pleasure, woohoo!), I've added more sounds
to Trunks In Portuguese.
Soon to come, those French Trunks sounds!
Tuesday, 10/31/00
9:00 pm
- Whee! As promised, here
are the sounds and new section! It's a new...*gasp*
sounds section! You can find it in Media,
and it's called......Trunks
In Portuguese! Dat's right!
Hear the Purple Haired Wonder in all of his Portuguese
glory! Thanks to Michan for sending me the sounds.
Now, I plan on getting Chinese and French Trunks sounds
in the near future, so I shall be combining all my international
Trunks sounds into something called "Trunks Around
the World". Pretty freaky, huh? Enjoy!
- Got a new winner and sentence
for Random DBZ
Fill In The Blank Contest.
12:30 am
- Happy Halloween! What
will you be doing this year? Going out wearing
your Goku or Vegeta outfits (saw 'em in the store..they
looked scary)? Egging helpless fanboy's houses?
Getting drunk on those little candy wax beer bottles?
Well, whatever you do, have a safe and fun Halloween!
To celebrate, please check out the latest addition
to Darci-san's Halloween
Fan Manga,
"Trick or Treat Time Trunks". The ending
isn't what you'd expect. ^_^ Let's give a round
of applause to the great Darci for having her manga
finished up by Halloween!! Later today, I'm gonna
reeeealllly try to have those Trunks sounds I've been
promising since the weekend. Oh, and get ready
for a new section, coming soon!
Sunday, 10/29/00
- For all you fans of the chat,
I've finally gotten around to getting a new Chat Room,
since the old one was kind of a piece of crap.
Hopefully, this new one will be slightly better.
For the love of cheese, play nice or else I may have
to get nasty. ^_^ This one is also temporary until
I can find something better to use as a chat.
Saturday, 10/28/00
- Yeehaw, three midterms down,
one more to go. With that said, I can finally
add some stuff I've been sitting on for quite some time,
heheh. Shall we begin? We shall!
- Added a new things to Trunks Cartoons,
including the next chapter to Murf's story!
- A great looking new Trunks
Fan Manga
has begun it's serialization at the ToT.
It's all about what may have taken place between Trunks
and Vegeta in The Room of Spirit And Time.
- Posted a little something
to Trunks Twilight
Zone. Shoujo Kakumei Utena fans...rejoice!!
- I've added a DBZ Marriage Prospect
for Freeza. Oh my...
- For fun stuff to look at if
you're bored, go listen to the new (especially of the
Eric Johnson wanna-be!!) fansounds at
DaizenshuuEX and give the new
game at
GingaGIRIGIRI
a whirl!
Wednesday, 10/25/00
- Ahh, I just love yesterday's
episode when Trunks comes out of The Room of Spirit
and Time *spits of the phrase "Hyperbolic
Time Chamber"*. Anywho, I made a bunch of
purty and colorful and large Screencaps
from the episode when Trunks comes out of The
Room of Spirit and Time (hmmm....do you sense a
pattern going on here?). Yes, I know I made screencaps
before from the episode when Trunks comes out of The
Room of Spirit and Time (gee, maybe I'm trying
to get a point across or something), but my fansubs
suck, so it makes sense to remake those caps from the
dub version. I would have added sounds from this
episode, but I am dealing with the week from hell right
now (2 midterms to study for, both are doozies!), so
the sounds will have to come later (as well as screencaps
and sounds from The History of Trunks).
- Updated the Trunks Pick of the Week
with something quite odd that I made. ^_^
- Thanks to Liz and her friend
(I'm sorry, i didn't get your name), the contributed
Trunks Doujinshi
all about Trunks walking in on his parents
doing stuff has been translated! Remember, it's
supposed to be read from right to left, not left to
right. Check it out!: Page 1,
Page 2.
Monday, 10/23/00
- Did you see the end of DBZ
today? I hope you did, because THIS
is the reason I'm happy to be a Trunks fan.
Girls, give it up for our new and improved hottie and
happy drooling! Speaking of episodes, be sure
to watch tomorrow's, cuz there's a funny scene with
Bulma and Trunks regarding his new hair-do (well, I
HOPE the dub version of this scene will be funny....).
- Added the last 6 movie clips
from the second half of "The History of Trunks"
(which will be out in stores tomorrow!). I highly
recommend downloading the last clip of this batch.
It's when Trunks leaves Bulma to time travel to the
future, and it's just too sweet. Plus, we get
to hear him say "I love you"! ^_^
For all you crazed fans out there, close your eyes and
pretend he's saying it to you. :P
Sunday, 10/22/00
- Whew, finally, I made 8 movie clips from
the first half of "The History of Trunks"
TV Special! I hope you enjoy these previewing
clips. Watch 'em, and then check out the tape,
in stores everywhere on Tuesday! ^_^ I hope to
have clips from the second half of the special up tomorrow.
Saturday, 10/21/00
- Now that I have the History
of Trunks, I was able to make a better version of one
of my favorite music videos,
"Bye Bye Bye:
#17 & #18 vs. Trunks- Past, Present, and Future"!!
Update- I managed to re-encode
the video so that it has better image quality while
lowering the file size by 2 whole MB. I apologize
to people who checked out the version I put up earlier
today, but I recommened downloading the re-uploaded
version. ^_^
Friday, 10/20/00
- The first of many dub Trunks
TV Special items is now ready for download! It's
a movie
file of the scene when Trunks
transforms into a Super Saiyajin for the first time.
Scream for me bitch, scream! *ahem* He screams real
good. ^_^ Enjoy!
- I make a lousy tutor.
VegEX didn't do as well as he could have on his Japanese
midterm! *thwap*! Oh, speaking of which, why
don't you go to EX's site and listen to Jon and company's
new fansounds?
They're dang amusing, and good for you too!
Thursday, 10/19/00
- ...................*in a daze* That
was....in...Ennnggglish! *slaps self* It's ok, I'm alright.
Just trying to recuperate, that's all. Now....I
may not be completely coherent just yet, but I'll try
to give my reactions while they're fresh. Listen
up! ^_^
* The big one (well, to me,
it is): They gave Trunks a last name. That's
right! Let the Temple O' Trunks be the first to
tell you that Trunks' full name in the dub version of
DBZ is "Trunks Brief". No more speculating,
huh? Neat! This is good since in the Japanese
version, Trunks' last name (could either be "Vegeta"
or "Brief") was never mentioned. Me
being the corny fan girl I am, this means a lot to me,
hehe.
* The music: Go ahead
and kick my ass, I LIKED it. Whatchu gonna do
about it, foo'!? I'm very tempted to buy the soundtrack.
Although a bit of the music didn't really go with the
scenes (the BIGGEST mis-match: rap during the scene
when Gohan gives Trunks the last senzu), it generally
set the tones for the scenes fairly well. It's
definitely a lot better than the crap we're
subjected to during the regular TV episodes. I
found tha music for the special very tolerable.
* Voice acting: Better than
normal. #17 was especially good, and we got to
hear #18 say "this sucks" ^_^ As for
Gohan, he was kinda hot-sounding, so I'm glad.
And da man himself, Eric Johnson does a great 13-year
old Trunks voice! Sounds nice and....pre-pubescent.
:P I was happy with the way he acted out the death
scene. Nice nice indeed *claps*.
* Dialogue: The major
disappointment of this video. Very few lines were
kept the same as the original, and while it didn't mess
with the plot at all....I dunno...I guess I could have
done without hearing dialogue when characters aren't
supposed to be speaking. That really messes with
the mood, yo. That's not to say that some
of the unnecessary dialogue wasn't amusing!
I kinda enjoyed all the remarks #18 made about clothes,
and the things #17 was saying while running over people
with his car was just too funny!
All in all, I'm quite pleased with
how the dub of the Trunks TV Special turned out.
While it doesn't capture the emotion of the story as
well as the original version, it is still damn good
production as far as FUNi is concerned! I'm impressed.
If you're a fan of Trunks, or just want to see a great
one-shot DBZ story, I highly recommend picking this
one up!
- Here is something interesting!
It's a pic
of the cover for the soundtrack (yes, you
heard right. *Soundtrack*) for The History of Trunks.
Just thought ya'd like to see it so you know
what it looks like in stores. ^_^
- CaryDraw has sent me
an updated version of his Trunks Video
Game (found in the Games
section)! I hope that this time it will
work for people who have tried to play it before, but
it didn't work. Have fun, and happy gaming!
Monday, 10/9/00
- Saw the Trunks DVD's last
night, soooo...it is time for my mini, half-arsed review
(c'mon, admit it. You don't wanna read some lengthy
shizzat! You want me to get straight to the point,
don'tcha? Ok, I will!). Here we go!
The goods: Sound and video quality. *droool*
I felt like Trunks was right there with me! Oh
wait, that wasn't Trunks, that was random guys in the
dorm. The translations- dead on! Wheee,
thanks Daimao guy! The menus- extra purty.
Umm..I'm easily amused, so I loved these DVD's to death.
For all you people who whine about not seeing the original
version of DBZ, don't whine! Go out and get these
DVD's! They're like whoaaa...Meri gives 'em two
thumbs up. Thanks EX for letting me watch them.
^_^
- I'm gonna try to have a new
section up tomorrow. Be VERY afraid. It's gonna
be a weird one.
Sunday, 10/8/00
- Wheee, VegettoEX is letting
me go and watch his Trunks DVD's today! I am just
five shades of happy right now *drool drool*.
I'll have a mini-review of it (you can bet it won't
be a "normal" review, hehe) at a later time.
Now, on with the update!
- Added 4 new weird products
(including my favorite of the moment, DBZ bed sheets)
to Operators
Are Standing By!
- I finally got around to revising
my FAQ
and About
Me sections. Both were in major need
of an over-haul.
Saturday, 10/7/00
- A Scans- Page
2 update has been made on this fine Saturday.
The twist: they're nothing but Trunks scans! Dat's
right, 6 big and purty pics are up and ready to be drooled
upon. ^_^ I wanna give a special shout out to
Scott from the comic book store. Your music videos
were fabulous!
Thursday, 10/5/00
- Woohoo, it's only an hour
and a half after today's DBZ episode, and I've already
got 5 new Trunks In English
sounds ready for listening!
- I've posted 15 high quality
and majorly cute images from yesterday's episode in
the Trunks Screencaps
section. Some of these are repeats of old images,
but these look *much* better than my cruddy old, fansubbed-captured
pics!
Wednesday, 10/4/00
- Alrighty, my damn scanner
is still being weird. Heck, I even resorted to
trying to scan my stuff at work, but I ran out of time.
Maybe I'll try again tomorrow. In the meantime,
check this out!
- Now that episodes that aren't
yet available on video have begun airing on Cartoon
Network, that means a lot more work for me! I'm
gonna attempt to make more clear screencaps of Trunks
and new sound bytes from these episodes on a fairly
regular basis. Look at what a freak I am, I already
went and made 10 sound files from today's new episode
and put them in the Trunks In English
section! Hope you enjoy them!
Remember, the ones with the smiley face ^_^ are the
ones I like the best.
Tuesday, 10/3/00
- Grrrr, I was planning on adding
a crud load of cool images today, but my scanner is
fudged up. I'll definitely try to have a
good handful of pics up tomorrow, though. In the
meantime, here's a Trunksly news bit (ok, so it's not
really news). Tomorrow is the episode when Trunks
plays with the squirrels on Cartoon Network. Watch
it and die laughing. :) That is all! I hope the
dub will capture the pure stupidity and cuteness of
the scene. ^_^
- On a side note, I finally
got around to updating the Virtualgreetings.com
site I work on at my job. ^_^
Sunday, 10/1/00
- 5 nifty new Trunks In Japanese
sounds have been posted!
- I've added a few contributed
and miscellaneous images to Trunks
Doujinshi.
- For da ladies, a new pic of
the English Voice Actor
of Trunks, Eric Johnson is now up. Oh my, is
he a hottie. ^__^
- A winner has been picked for
Random DBZ
Fill In The Blank Contest and a new sentence
is up.
- I finally updated Trunks POTW and
Random
POTW.
Friday, 9/29/00
- I apologize for the lack of
updates these few days. The reason? I made
a new music video!
Yessiree bob, this is one that I've wanted to make for
a long time, but only had the chance to put it together
now. It's a video all about the abusive relationship
between Trunks and Vegeta called "It's
A Sin: A Vegeta and Trunks Music Video".
It's a tad depressing, but I hope you'll like it anyway!
- If ya haven't done so already,
I high recommened reading "The
Sean Schemmel Experience" feature
over at DaizenshuuEX. It's
really interesting, and the sounds at the end rule!
Major props to Jon for making that whole thing happen.
Tuesday, 9/19/00
- The Temple O' Trunks
has just passed it's 1,000,000th hit! Wheee! Only took
2 and a half years, but hell, it's damn cool! *begin
awards-like acceptance speech* I just wanna thank me
mommy and daddy, and every fan of the ToT that made
this all possible! This site wouldn't be anywhere without
the continuous support of the fans, so I thank you for
that! Speaking of the fans, I got 2 entries for the
1,000,000 visitor contest, and I don't trust either
of them! Therefore, no one wins until either someone
fesses up, or I come up with some kind of plan. Anywho...this
is quite the milestone! I seriosuly never thought that
errr...anyone would go to the ToT when I first made
it, let alone get this far, so...thanks again to all
the fans! You rock. I'm writing this from VegEX's dorm , so this is kinda
half-assed. ^_^ Sorry! I'll have a real update tomorrow.
*blow kisses to peeps* Later!
Monday, 9/18/00
- I'm delighted to say that
this Link submissions period went very well! I'm
probably posting 75% of the sites that were sent in,
and that's very good compared to the last time which
was uhh.....not that much. ^_^ For your
viewing pleasure, here are 17 new Links!
Sunday, 9/17/00
- I think I'll hold off on posting
up the new Links until tomorrow. The Gymnastics
competition on the Olympics is really distrating me
right now, so I'll save it for later, k? Ok. ^_^
- As you may have noticed, the
ToT is nearing it's One Millionth visit. Wow!
*sniff sniff* I can hardly believe it myself.
Well, as thanks to all the people you have come here,
I'm gonna have a little contest! Whoever is the
1,000,000th visitor will get any DBZ fansub of their
choice (provided I can make a copy of it) and a CD-ROM
with every single ToT Music Video. Sweeeet!
Now, to prove that you're the lucky visitor, you must
e-mail me a screen capture of the counter on the ToT
proving that you're it. If I get conflicting images
due to cheaters, well....we'll see what happens.
Good luck!
- Page
3 of Darci's new Fan Manga has been fixed.
This is important because that page is a vital element
to the story. =)
4:20 pm
- Finally, a new Feature Film has
been made! Sorry it's been so long since the last
one. There's a reason for that. My mom bought
the video camera to Bermuda with us and let's just say
that the combination of sand, heat, and water isn't
a good thing for a video camera. But now it's
fixed so it's all good! Today, we bring you The
DBZ Olympics! Watch as your fave
DBZ characters go head to head in the battle of the
brutes!
- Darci-san has made yet another
spectacular Fan
Manga! If you're easily offended,
don't read this one. =P If you have an open mind,
go ahead and yuck it up, cuz this one is a riot!
This has been called by some "The Best Mini-Manga
of the Year!" ^_^
Saturday, 9/16/00
- Late night update, wheee!
Just want to say that Link submissions are open!
Now, I can't stress this enough: ONLY SUBMIT YOUR SITE
IF IT'S COMPLETE AND ORIGINAL! *slaps self* Good
god, I used the caps. Anywho, please send you're
site name and url to this address! Submissions
close at noon tomorrow. Laters!
- Expect something cool tomorrow,
yup yup.
Friday, 9/15/00
- Kinda got a situation going
on with my forum on the BBA, but 's all good!
Since I'm such a freak, here I am, at work, getting
a new message board when I should be doing my job, lol.
For now, it's pretty simple, but when I have more time
to plan I'm gonna try to get a UBB. To all the
members of the old forum, I'm sorry you had to go through
all the garbage that just went down, but I hope this
new thang can allow us to start over again and chill.
Here is the new
Temple O' Trunks Message Board.
Thursday, 9/14/00
- Since the English version
of the famous Goku and Piccolo Driving Episode aired
yesterday, I've decided to remake the old music video I
made for it back in the day. I mean, heck, the
quality of this is so much better than my crusty fansubs,
so I may as well! The only thing that peeves me
is the little annoying Cartoon Network logo in the corner.
Here it is, the new, higher quality "Open Road
Song- Version 2: Goku and Piccolo Driving"
music vid! (NOTE:
To get it to download, you have to do a right-click
'save as').
Wednesday, 9/13/00
- A new wacky Fan Manga called
"I Wanna Be Like Dad" by Chris Sanders has
been put up. Yep, it's more of them crazy drawings
of his!
- Last call for 'Say No To "No
Trunks"' pictures to be sent!
Tuesday, 9/12/00
- Whew, school is sure taking
a lot out of me. But don't worry, I haven't forgotten
about you guys! Let's see what Mama Meri has today
in her loverly bag o' tricks...
- First up, a bio for Cell and
Raditz have been added to DBZ
Marriage Prospects!
- A winner has been picked for
Random DBZ
Fill In The Blank Contest and a new sentence
is now up.
- Everyone.......sexy shirtless
Vegeta has arrived in the Cels
section. =)
Saturday, 9/9/00
- For your viewing pleasure,
I've made a new Image
gallery called Trunks
Video Game Pics. These are some
screencaps taken from the Ultimate Battle 22 and Final
Bout video games, so enjoy! This wouldn't be possible
without the spiffay resources of DaizenshuuEX.
Thanks for letting me borrow your Playstation to do
this, EX!
- The next new section, which
is also video game related, will be out later today.
It's Media/Humor based, so be sure to check it out later
on if you have the chance. ^_^
Friday, 9/8/00
- BWUAHA! VegettoEX, here! HUZZAH!
I now own "Temple o' Trunks," bitches! OK,
so I don't. Alright, so I don't even know the password
to update. .... alright, so Meri's watching me do this
right now... blah. I OWN THE SITE! I wish I could update
with something. Umm.... too bad I don't have anything
to update with. What do you guys and gals wanna see,
huh? Hmm.... uhh... d'oh, I have nothing to say. I'm
gonna run off with this site, now. Haha! .... [dies]
*Meri butts in* Next on FOX: "Web Masters Live
Near Each Other and Have Far Too Much Fun Messing With
Each Other's Sites"!
- A bunch of cool Trunks Fanfics
from new and old authors alike have been posted.
There's a wide variety of writings today, so there should
be something for everyone!
Thursday, 9/7/00
- In The Trunks
Twilight Zone, two new images are now up.
- Added a few quotes to The Sexuality
of Trunks.
- There are some new spiffay
Trunks action figures coming out in the coming months!
Dragon
Ball Toys Island has some pics of two great
looking, never released, Trunks toys. There's
my personal fave, the SSJ
Trunks energy blasting figure, and regular
Trunks with sword (is it just me, or is
there something odd looking about his hips/legs?).
I can't wait for them to come out! I'm especially
looking forward to get the Chi Chi and Raditz figures.
They can be new Feature Film "cast members".
=P
Wednesday, 9/6/00
- Sorry it took so long to make
this update. Going back to college took a lot
out of me. Anyway, you know how I said earlier
that I was getting a Vegeta cel? Where there was
a slight mix up, and I ended up with a animation sequence
of Trunks cel drawings! Hot damn, that's just
as good! (Don't worry, I still might get the Vegeta
one, and I just ordered some more Trunks ones.
I'm turning into a cel junkie!) To view these
wickedly cute images, just check out Trunks Cels.
- Ah, the crazy things I'll do when
I hear a random song on the radio that sparks an idea....well,
here is a new music video
for your enjoyment! I really kind of made this
on a whim, but I liked how it turned out! It's
a barrel of cuteness, I tells ya! It's called
"He's So Shy!:
THESE Are The Men of DBZ?" and it
features some of the shyest guys in the series and their
relationships with the characters of the female pursuasion.
Kawaii!
- Everyone, take warning.
I have ordered a Vegeta cel and it finally arrived in
the mail. He's SHIRTLESS. I'll have a scan
of it up later today. *drool*
- Today, the episode where Trunks
kills Freeza airs on Cartoon Network. Oh, happy
day! Guess what, I'll be in school when it happens!
Wahhhh! God bless vcr's. As I'm sure many
of you have heard, they kinda messed with the actual
slicing of the big baddie. But hell, at least
it's on tv!
- Guess what? I've totally
lost my senses and decided to be a guest speaker/panelist
at the first ever DBZ Otakon
being held next summer in Red Bank, NJ! Wheee!
Other DBZ web masters will be there, so you can attend
this thing and talk to us and meet us in person (but
why would you want to? ^_^)! If you're interested
in going, or would like to learn more what it's about,
just check out the site
for the con. It'll be good, clean fun!
Monday, 9/4/00
- Hey, this is Meri and VegettoEX
reporting LIVE from Meri's bangin' pad! Word foo'!
Well, much to my dismay, EX isn't at all interested
in putting some sexy and yummy Trunks pics up on the
site with me. I guess he doesn't think he's a
hunky sex machine. DIE YOU! *kills EX*.
My friends, DaizenshuuEX will no longer be updating
from this point on. *drags his cold body off into the
river*. Bye bye for now!
- OK, time for something almost
resembling a real update. It's a movie file of
the new DBZ Intro
For Toonami (with Trunks, #18, and all
the other new peeps from Season 4).
- Well gang, Season 4- The Android/Cell
Era (IMO, the best episodes in DBZ) begins today on
Cartoon Network! Hope you're ready. ^_^
Trunks will be making his first appearance tomorrow,
and really gets down to business on Wednesday.
I'll have something cool on the ToT by then to commemorate
this cool event. This is only something I've been
waiting to see for 4 years now, so ya know, I gotta
do something cool for it. Now, on with the updates!
- 20 GREAT images have been
posed in Scans-Page 2.
I highly recommend checking out the big-ass Trunks image
I scanned. This batch is gooooood quality, yo.
=)
- I've added 2 new products
to Operators
Are Standing By. One of these items
will actually come out in stores soon!
- Later today, I'll be meeting
with VegettoEX of DaizenshuuEX (he just moved to my
college, so may as well!). We were supposed to
hook up last night but uuh.....we kinda missed each
other, even though we were standing like 20 feet apart
from each other. ^_^ It was kinda funny. Well,
here's hoping I come back in one piece.
- The response for "OPERATION:
Say No To 'No Trunks'" has been great! Thanks
go out to everyone who wants to get involved!
