The manga kinda glosses over it, but yeah, he's a bit weirded out in the anime, so it's clear he had no idea. And hey, it's Goku - can we really expect him to know what causes pregnancy? In the episode Camera Shy of the tournament in the Buu saga, Goku asks how Android 18 was able to get pregnant. ...

I just broke down and bought Season 6. The last set I bought was season 1. I stopped after witnessing the widescreen difference, but now after reading some of this thread, my opinion changed. The Cell Games arc is definitely my favorite. I have the 276 cut dub episodes that I downloaded, but it'll b...

It was well written, and it touched on a great deal of aspects of the show. I was surprised by the way in which Goku's initial Super Saiyan transformation was described. I was even more surprised that the posts following the original post didn't comment on that, because I was under the impression th...

There are too many things that can be screwed up in the movie adaption. Namely the hair, the energy attacks, transformations, what was the Japanese name for the instant moving 20 feet away thing, I think everything.

You guys shoulden't worry about all the effects much..I mean look at Heroes right? :? Heroes was different, though. Dragonball Z is a series that focuses heavily on energy beams, planets exploding, and people turning into giant monkeys. Just think how much it would cost to make the final Gohan vs. ...

I'm happy and scared at the same time. From the way the article sounds, it makes you wonder if there's a montage at the beginning showing Goku arriving and then hitting his head, with a fast forward to Goku and Gohan heading to Roshi's island. How they're going to do the energy blasts is beyond me. ...

You might also want to check out the Goku/Jackie Chun battle in the 21st Budoukai, where Goku tricks Jackie by yelling the name of a different attack than the one he's actually using. What episode was this? It's a shame, though, that we didn't see more of Goten and Trunks actually fighting as Goten...

She had that opportunity twice and didn't take it. I'm surprised she can stay faithful after seeing him die multiple times. Well...she does love him. And about that first "opportunity", which I'm assuming your reference is to Kuririn's later deaths, he just defended himself to Super Buu f...

It isn't unwatchable with the widescreen, definitely works. It's just, very frustrating knowing what you're really missing and what Funi really did. I'm debating whether I want to buy the Trunks Saga to Trunks killing Cell in his timeline just to watch it subbed when it comes out. I told myself I wo...

Free The Future in Japanese

I just bought my first copy of the Viz mangas, so since the Android Saga was my favorite one, I bought volume 19 as my first one. In Free The Future, Trunks says to Bulma, "Nightmares never last Mom, one day you wake up and they're gone." I noticed that there isn't a line in between the go...

This is episode 248 in the dub, right? A Whole New Gohan. If so, then he insults Buu at the end of the episode in the japanese version? In the dub, he just says "Hi, nice day".

If he did, it would've been in the manga or jap anime. He never stated his age in the Funi dub.
