### What Is The Westwood/Blue Water Dub & Why It Takes So Long To Sync:
1. This dub only aired in international English speaking countries (UK, Canada, Netherlands etc.). It is a rare lost media that has been preserved by fans who recorded this from TV between 2001 to 2005. This dub will never have an official release on DVD due to being stuck in licensing hell. The Blue Water and Westwood dub were edited for TV and thus often times contain various cuts. This can be anywhere in the episode. It takes about 1 to 2 hours to sync one episode because of these cuts. We are doing this lengthy process per episode in order to preserve this dub, and to prevent it from being lost to time. Here is what the typical timeline looks like for a single episode:

**Notes:**
1. The video for this release has been sourced from [SoM’s Dragon Box](https://nyaa.si/view/1440407). This has been synced to the best audio of any given episode of the dub. The Dragon Box retains as much detail as possible, ensuring that Dragon Ball GT can be viewed in its highest quality.
2. **It has come to my attention that the wrong footage was used. Please be on the lookout for the CC release in the coming days. Sorry to all who downloaded this so far.**
### Audio:
This release serves to include the best recorded version of each episode synced to the best possible video that we have. The audio is sourced from the [+500GB Westwood Blue Water Torrent](https://nyaa.si/view/1320921). The sources are Hi-Fi and Stereo recordings, the best possible version of any given episode.
Our audio sources for an episode of the Blue Water dub are: **Robo4900**, **Shadowmere** (originally labelled as part of the Wonder-inc folder), **xoxDANoxo**, **TheDutchSlayer**, **OceanDan93**, **Andyscot**, **Val the VHS Guy**, **lolman**. (in order of quality). The audio cleanup for **TheDutchSlayer** VHS tapes were done by **Krycek7o2**.
**Notes:**
1. The **AB Groupe French DVDs** and **Japanese Audios** were used as fillers since they used the same music score, and were used to fill in the ad break, after openings, and before endings, where applicable for seamless music instead of an abrupt start/stop.
2. The insert songs have been re-added by SSJ as a different track, and are included for episode 39.
### Opening & Ending:
The Opening and Ending have been recreated for this release. The Opening features video sourced from a 4k 16mm scan of the GT opening from Kineko ([Youtube link](https://youtu.be/dCe5fTJbXZQ)) and SoM Color Corrected footage to patch the credits, they have been recreated by **DBZImran**. The Ending features video sourced from the SoM Color Correction Dragon Box and recreated credit text by **Robo**, they have been recreated by **Draganath**.
### Credits:
This was possible thanks to the combined efforts of:
* **Robo4900**, **Wonder inc**, **DBZImran** who organized and split each individual episode ready to sync and edit.
* **iKaos** and **JySzE** for quality control and encoding instructions.
* **ManifestX**, **andyscot**, **Wonder inc**, **Dragonballireland** for QCing and editing episodes.
Dragon Ball GT has been synced by **ManifestX**, **Draganath**, **DBZImran**
