Return to Pojo's Dragonball


Q: Alright, here is a question that I would like to know. You being a female and maintaining a Dragonball web site is not often heard off. Another thing that adds to that surprise is that you maintain a very good site. What are your opinions on the reactions you get from being a female in the world of dragonball?

A: Well, I get very good reactions actually. I have yet to have someone tell me something bad actually (about being a girl). Most are surprised, and congratulate me and a lot begin to treat me nicer because I am a girl (one of those female magical powers!).

Q: What made you want to start a website?

A: Well, I made a webpage just to see if I could actually do one because I saw so many out there and thought I could do better. And that Free Webpage advertisement also got me to join the DBZ Community

Q: Moving on, what are your opinions on season three, was it what you expect?

A: To tell you the truth I don't watch much of the American dub, but I think FUNimation did a good thing. Yeah, they got some cheesy VAs (Voice Actors) especially Krillin's, but they have actually gotten better.  The only thing that really gets to me is when Goku is like fighting with Freeza and he does that weird noise (yeah, where he sounds like a rabied dog) when he gets upset or is like trying hard to do something.  Well, I am very bad at explainations, but those who got it got it, and those who didn't didn't.  Actually, I didn't expect much, but I was surprised that they didn't cut back all of the violence. Yep, I even saw Oolong with one of those porno mags when he is packing up to go to Namek.

Q: Alright, Vegeta vs. Who, which would be the best fight?

A: Vegeta vs. Goku of course :-) Have you watched when he fights Goku when he turns Majin?  That kicks ASS! It is like the best fight in the series.

Q: Who is your favorite female DBZ character?

A: I am very partial to the Androids so I would have to say #18. I mean, who else would marry Krillin? She rocks!

Q: What is your opinion on the Dragonball theme tracks. Do you like the Japanese music better?

A: I assume that you are talking about the English soundtrack. Well, hmm... no, I don't really like it, but I LOVE the Japanese music! I jam out all the time to it and school, I don't care if my friends think I'm  weirdo because the music is so cool. My favorite song would have to be "Warning of Danger followed by that IKUSA song. I also enjoy the Japanese music of other anime such as Fushigi Yuugi.

Q What is your opinion on fansubs. Do you feel that they help the popularity of dragonball? Do they help or hurt FUNimation?

A: Well, I LOVE fansubs, but am split on the issue of helping or hurting
FUNimation because it goes both ways. I mean, they totally help for
Dragonball to be more popular, but if they do buy the dubs most people will not also buy the FUNimation released one as well, but then again by increasing the popularity of DBZ by fansubs people will also buy other merchandise. So, sorry I cannot quite answer your question.  But I don't think all fansubs should be pulled out, only the ones available by FUNimation.

Q: Do you fell that the Mexican or American dragonball is better?

A: Spanish dub all the way! 

-Vamos Goku! Eres el numero 1! (quote Vegeta)
Let's go Goku! You're number 1

Q: If you could meet one person from dragonball who would it be?

A:VEGETA! VEGETA! VEGETA! VEGETA! VEGETA! VEGETA! Man that guy is sexy! And if he wasn't available I would settle for the other sexy guy Number 17, Gohan, or Goku (listed in order).

Q: What is your favorite Dragonball series; Dragonball, Dragonball Z, or Dragonball GT?

A: My favorite would have to be Dragonball Z because it is the longest. I also enjoy watching Dragonball because it cheers you up and DBGT because Vegeta looks even SEXIER when he cuts his hair and shaves his mustache!

Q: I see that you sell fansubs, but I noticed that you do not sell
Dragonball fansubs. What is the reason for this?

A: Well, in reality I don't sell the fansubs, it is one of my staff guys Gary (talk about a nice guy!). Anyway, beside Gary being a NICE guy the reason for not selling them was because Gary was contacted by FUNimation just to make sure he stopped the distribution.

Q: How much do you feel being part of planet namek has help yoursites popularity?

A: DEFINATELY (Well, I would say 90%)! Planet Namek is what brings me most traffic because they are such a big site and thanks to them my site got so much exposure. (Thanks Mr. E!)

Q: Have you built any other web sites in the past. If so what were there names and what were they about?

A: Well, Akire's DBD was my first site, but I also built a club which I haven't updated since like July at: http://www.geocities.com/NapaValley/Vineyard/5052/   called The SaiyaJin Power Club (If anyone is interested in owning the club contact me, and I'll give you the passwords). It was cool at first, but too many people wanted to join and I couldn't put all their names in.

Q: Alright one final question. Number 17, Number 18, and Vegeta in a fight. Who would win and why?

A: Okay, this is what would happen, first #17 would want to finish off #18 because he would think that it would be his greatest opponet, but #18 finishes him off in one punch, then she turns to Vegeta where he is busy brushing his hair and admiring himself in a mirror. So #18 would get all pissed off and throw her strongest attack towards Vegeta, but remember his mirror? Well, her blast would bounce off of it finishing her off and Vegeta would be left with great looking hair!

andy: Thanks you've been great, glad you could do it.

Akire: Anytime, glad to help get the word out on us cool DBZ female webmasters!
