3rd TV Special

Post by Raki » Sat Jan 26, 2008 1:01 pm

Do any of our older Dragonball fans remember this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GCffIkgoHI4 . The uploader claims this aired in Japan during the Cell Saga,and is a recap of many of the movies. Any information on this?

The series doesn't start with the arrival of Raditz. Stop being lazy and watch Dragonball.

Oh. Seen that before. Either here, or the DaizEX main site, or Kanzentai. I'll look around, but someone else will probably find it before me.

Looks like this is a job for VegettoEX!!

But i thinks it's probably just one of those clip episodes tv series sometimes use as filler. ON an other note: look at the other videos the up loader has to offer. Some of them are quite interesting.
I finally bought a gamecube. To bad they don't make any games for it now.

I remember seeing this on Ramza's fansub list (it looks like he's uploaded a sample to his youtube account as well).

I heard it wasn't really anything special.

Yeah, Ramza was the only one we knew that had it on tape back in the day. I never got a copy :P.

A lot of people started realizing its existence when they got in the 3-CD BGM Collection in 2006, where it lists all of the DBZ episode air-dates. There was a third "SP" listed on December 31st, 1993. Of course, pre-YouTube, it was a lot harder for people to be aware of anything's existence...

Was there any reason why it hadn't been included in the Dragonbox sets?

Probably because it was just a recap, and if you had the DB sets, you wouldn't really need that! :D

They might not have the rights to it if it only aired once

I've seen a higher-quality version of the beginning where they're in suits; I even had it on my favorites; but YouTube deleted it a while ago.

My friend taped almost every episode of Z when he lived in Japan and I happened to see that as well when I was watching all of his tapes (took a lot of damn time). The only cool part was seeing Goku and Gohan in there white tuxedos and if I recall, Goku makes some funny comment about how he hates wearing anything but his gi and Gohan rebukes him because they're on TV or filming a special or something. Think I still have a copy in my storage somewhere. Can't be sure as I don't have a VCR anymore.

Same here. I remember seeing this on an old VHS tape my friend lent me. And I haven't seen it since then. It was in between some episodes from the Cell Ark, if I remember correctly. And it was also much longer than that youtube vid. That was a back in the day!. The picture quality looked pretty much same, more or less.

Heh, wow, I've never even heard of this. To bad there isn't a high quality version of it...
There is no better combination in the world than Dragonball, Cherry Pepsi, and Cheez-Its. It's a proven fact.

Yeah, surprised it wasn't on any of the Dragon Boxes, especially the movies edition. Maybe on the singles?

It makes me happy to see that there is still more Dragon Ball material out there :D
