with the TV opening sequence. Another sequence cut was the closing credits featuring a summoned Shenron who fulfilled Upa's wish to bring Bora back to life. The scene was replaced with the TV closing sequence. Subsequent versions of the FUNimation dub had restored its introduction and its opening/ending sequence. Unlike the Japanese version however, the opening sequence had many scenes in freeze-frame, as a way to block out the original Japanese credits that were in the sequence. The closing credits was restored with English credits censoring half the screen, also as a way to block out the original Japanese credits scrolling from the right. The film was later available on DVD along with Sleeping Princess in Devil's Castle and Path to Power as part of FUNimation's Dragon Ball Movie Box set released on December 6, 2005. The box set was re-released as a thinpack on February 12, 2008. This set has since been discontinued. The film was re-released to DVD in America on February 8, 2011 as a part of a Dragon Ball Movie 4-Pack remastered thinpack release from FUNimation along with the other Dragon Ball related films. This release restored all of the previously edited video footage of the film, but no apparent English credits are shown. An alternative English dub produced with an uncredited cast by AB Groupe in France was released in English speaking markets in Europe in the early 2000s. It aired on Toonami in the UK in 2005. The film was edited and combined with the second film, into a compilation film titled Dragon Ball, released in the Philippines by Regal Home Video in the mid/late 1990s. The cast is believed to have also dubbed the original Dragon Ball series and the first 26 episodes of Dragon Ball Z exclusively for airing in the Philippines.
