The episodes from the Garlic Jr., The Android Saga, Imperfect Cell Saga, and The Perfect Cell Saga. Each video is discounted to 5.95 each!
Rurouni Kenshin Episodes
-As most of you know, the new Rurouni Kenshin episodes began yesterday. If you are going to watch them, watch them now. Yesterday began the Kyoto arc, which is pretty much the best of all the Kenshin episodes. Do yourself a favor and watch them!New Bandai Figures!
-Here's some news from Dragonball Toys.Bandai has a new set of Dragonball Z figures on display! From the pictures, it looks like these figures are going to be super-articulated, in the truly super sense of the word. As displayed, the figures have at least 14 points of articulation!

Welcome to the new server. If you're seeing this page, it means that the DNS settings have successfuly been updated in your area. Hopefully there will be little or no downtime in this new server since it's more powerful and gives me higher control over DBZSC with the new control panel options. Sections such as Music Videos, Movie Clips, and The Dbzsc Forums will be back online very soon; this last one probably quicker than the others. As always, if there are any broken links, please REPORT THEM! Thank you.
Attention Yu Yu Hakusho fans: Our good o' fellas over there at SpiritDetective.com are having the same problems as us. We're back up because of the new server, but they haven't been so lucky yet. They'll return very soon though, since a server move will be done for their site as well. Hang in there! [more]
