some of the changes made to Dragon Ball Kai were questionable... did anyone actually stop and say “yeah, this is better”?

i think the most tragic thing in the world is how the only HD version of the original pokemon anime we'll ever have is the 1st episode....

There's an early trailer for "Pokemon" that was shown at E3 1998, and it features an early version of the 4kids theme with different vocals and lyrics (barely audible but trust me). "Catch 'Em if You Can!" isn't nearly as catchy as "Gotta Catch 'Em All!" #pokemonㅤㅤㅤ
It's funny how something considered unanimously terrible can become fascinating years later. We will never see a film so bold and off-brand made today, and that's exactly why it's amazing.

I find it funny how Hudson Soft's adverts for their computer versions of Super Mario Bros. started out with a fully purple purple Bowser, which each month became more and more normal looking.
Newly discovered!
Full episode of the rare "Mario School" TV show, featuring what may be one of the earliest video appearances of the great Masahiro Sakurai, right after fans voted Super Smash Bros. #1 in the "20th Century Game Countdown". #スマブラ #SuperSmashBros #桜井政博
The Oha Suta Korokoro Weather Kids Segment didn't just feature Sonic the Hedgehog. Shogakukan featured a new franchise which (likely) rotated each week from 1997. That is a mountain of lost media.
Out of the nearly 1000 weather segments, it is insane luck that a random Japanese user (now vanished) decided to upload a rip of the Oha Suta Pocket Monsters movie promotional episode, which just so happened to contain the proto Sonic Adventure segment.
Oh and here is the music which featured: youtu.be/Q12Uedb0TgU?si=7kcx…
