Dragon Ball Z Kai to Air on Nicktoons

It has been confirmed. Everyone in the U.S. will get the chance to watch Dragon Ball Z Kai on television this spring. Here is an excerpt from the official press release.

Dragon Ball Z Kai, premiering on Nicktoons in May 2010, follows the last descendants of an evil race of warriors, known as the Saiyans, on their collision course with Earth. Goku–the strongest fighter on the planet–is all that stands between humanity and extinction and must face the villainous Saiyan warlord. Dragon Ball Z Kai is developed by Funimation Entertainment.

Is Cartoon Network (CN) starting to loose their monopoly on anime? First Naruto and now DBZ. It was kind of nice to be able to tune in to one channel for all my cartoons, but I guess it’s alright.
As for what Rayne said, they will probably do some slight editing for TV but the DVDs will definitely be uncut. Either that or they might put the show in a night-time block so they don’t have to edit it.
I’m disappointed that show is taking so long to come out on TV. The whole point of watching new episodes on TV is because you can’t buy them yet. But the DVDs and TV show are coming out in the same month so I could just buy the box set and be ahead of the TV show for 2 months.
They did it right with Fullmetal: Brotherhood. The episodes have been on TV for a while and the DVDs aren’t due till May so you have to watch TV to stay up to date.
Can’t wait for May to come around. Kai and Brotherhood in the same month!!!!!!!!!!

I wish they had Nicktoons in Canada, I’d watch this religiously, just like I did with DBZ
