So? That is in the manga, if that's what you're getting at.

Yeah, but I wish the scene versus Ginyu Tokuentai doesn't appear on KAI :?

It probably won't. What does that have to do with anything?

This episode covered a total of 39 pages. All of chapter 258 and 259, and the first 11 pages of chapter 260.

Anime-wise, it covered episode 50 and roughly 3/4ths of episode 51. Aside from some minor cuts and a general sped-up pace, the big cuts was a long filler scene where Goku repaired his spaceship taking up about a third of episode 50 and a number of scenes added to Vegeta's fight with the Nameckians in episode 51 to stretch it out. Also, a couple scenes were rearranged to match how they originally appeared in the manga.

Episode 50 originally covered all of chapter 258 and the first 5 pages of 259. Episode 51 originally covered the rest of 259, all of 260 and the first 2 pages of 261.

I'm really digging the colours and animation in Kai! Feels like it keeps getting better by the episode.

Why would they play the heroic music in Vegeta's dragonball searching scene? felt really really off.

Within the next month and a half or so we'll already be a quarter of the way through Kai!

The original show was well into its second year by the time it had covered as much ground as Kai has in 6 months.

Crazy.

Very happy to see we've gotten rid of the Lupin Vegeta. :3
Would've liked to have seen him replaced with a properly-proportioned Vegeta, but I don't mind having it cut instead.

Speaking of Vegeta, I find it interesting how drastic the way he's drawn is altered over the course of the series. It feels like the style changes more dramatically for him than other characters.

Liking Haruhi!Dende; Ms. Hirano's done a good job so far. The only spot where I heard Haruhi in the voice was when Dende was yelling.

Well, Lupin Vegeta was in one of those filler scenes used to extend the Vegeta VS Nameckians fight I mentioned being cut, so it wouldn't really make sense to include it.

Kind of off topic, but Nail's voice actor is now listed on the official Kai website:

No, they haven't. But I really hope Takiguchi Junpei comes back to voice Saichourou, because he also voiced Porunga in Z.

I really don't see the point of those redrawn scenes...they're just making things stand out...sure they can remake ki blasts and fight scenes, but those talking scenes remakes are just pointless.
