This has never really entered my mind, I'd always kind of assumed that the Kikoho, "Tribeam", was related to Tenshinhan's third eye, and therefore the others wouldn't be able to use the technique anyway. I wonder now what might have happened if Goku had been able to use it. Having as much ...

I got started watching DBZ with Japanese audio back in or around 2000 I think it was... FUNimation was just starting to release VHS from when Trunks showed up, and it was then that I discovered the International channel. The episodes were broadcast raw, no subtitles, so it was interesting at first. ...

I've always thought of power levels as kind of useless. Scouters explode so easily at such low levels (compared to the levels of strength we see later in the series anyway), that they pretty much became obsolete right after they were introduced. After so many people saying 'THAT'S IMPOSSIBLE! His po...

Some suggestions for question 1, Shinobi seems to have answered the other two essentially the same way I would have. Perhaps Instant Transmission is another one of those 'pure of heart' things. That would disqualify most of the cast right there. Assuming it was a pure of heart thing, he could have t...

I started my collection with the Trunks saga VHS tapes. I bought those censored because at the time I purchased the first one, I had no idea that there was an uncensored version, and then after that I wanted to make sure the art on the side of the box was the same. I bought those when cartoon networ...

Thank you both :) I've been hanging out here long enough to see that you're all a fine assortment of people, given time, I can see myself getting quite cozy here.

Speaking as a newbie, I would not have minded a greeting in the introduction forum, it would have been a good way to get my feet wet, so to speak.

Freeza was the real estate agent from hell. Hmmm... a lot of his interplanetary relations weren't really shown beyond Vegeta, Namek, and Earth (and of course the few that were occupied during the Bardock special), we can't really say how well Freeza treated planets that were sufficiently useful and ...

I have Dragonball related dreams every once in a while, they're usually random as heck though.

There's just something that still amuses me about Vegeta selling roast beef sandwi...

Due to the major inconsistancies, such as having 'earned' a physical body in the afterlife, having been a good person, et cetera...

Well, it certainly would have made the idea that he gave his last bean to Trunks after his own arm had been torn off more dramatic if that had been the very last senzu in existance. He is definitely his father's son.

Didn't Gohan have a bag of senzu in the Trunks special? Well, I guess he had only one bean, but it's not uncommon in the show for Karin to run out of beans anyway. From that I'd extrapolate that Karin's tower had not been breached, and therefore Kami's lookout should have been left alone as well. It...

But what about all those like totally legit fanfictions calling them the 'Z-senshi'? D:

I remember reading something that speculated that Toriyama wrote 'DragonBall 2' and that was misread as 'Z', but Herms' explanation is better.
