Do you know if the Dragon Boxes will be re-released in cheaper packaging, someday?

Re: Dragonbox Question

I got the first four boxes from Amazon (Amazon itself, not independent sellers) & they came in perfect condition. It doesn't hurt to ask for an exchange. Amazon gives you 30 days to return your item and they even send you a replacement before the return period is up. So, if the box damage annoys you ...

How did you guys already get Dragon Box 5? Where did you buy it from? I thought it comes out on the 26th of April? I pre-ordered mine from Amazon.

How can dead characters die a second time?

I was watching episode 278 of DBZ, where Kid Boo goes to Grand Kai's planet (where Kurirrin, Yamucha, King Kai are at), and Goku says that he needs to save Kurirrin and Yamucha (both dead) before they die a "second time" and "disappear" from existence. My question is, how can they die if they're ...

Why does Gotenks wear the same clothes as Majin Boo?

Is the outfit created from the mind of Goten & Trunks? If so, was Majin Boo's outfit the only thing that Goten & Trunks could think of?

Why didn't Namu raise his hands for the Genki Dama until...?

In episode 285 of DBZ, why didn't Namu raise his hands for the Genki Dama until Mr. Satan asked everybody to do so? Why didn't he do so after Son Goku asked? Wasn't Namu a friend of Goku? Did he get Alzheimer's? Did he hit his head? Wasn't he supposed to be a wise honorable person? Is it because he ...

Thanks. I checked, and it's called "The Love Between Father and Son". I wish I could have an mp3 of it.

Re: Is this what happened to Goku in DBGT? Goku and Jesus

There was a semi-recent topic about how the final battle of GT is actually very similar to yet another old Chinese fairy tale. Events like Goku swallowing the Dragon Ball and then seeming to die but then coming back were apparently near-perfect parallels to this story. For the life of me, though, I ...

Re: Is this what happened to Goku in DBGT? Goku and Jesus

Basically every hero in Dragonball dies for the sins of mankind (the villains show traits of the seven deadly sins), rises from the dead and returns.

But there was one "sin" in particular that the characters had to deal with in GT: the overuse of the Dragon Balls. Goku paid for it the most.

I ...

Re: Cheesy voice acting: Japanese vs English dubs

Do you really need to know Japanese to tell if the voice acting is cheesy? Before I started taking classes, I thought Vegeta and the narrator were hilariously over the top. Obviously I've got used to those voices, so I don't find them as amusing now.

I think you do need to know Japanese to tell ...

I don't care about a tiny deity who ressurected only 1 time
OK and what does that have to do with whether or not the GT writers used or were influenced by the story of Jesus?

Why do people always feel the need to make a note to say this?

I wrote that because I don't like GT. It's a cheap shot. Happy? Why don't I like GT? I don't like GT because Akira Toriyama had little to do with it. My definition of canon is "the works of a ...

Is this what happened to Goku in DBGT? Goku and Jesus

According to Christians, Jesus Christ died for our sins, rose from the dead, ascended to Heaven, and will return (Second Coming).

So, is that what happened to Goku in GT? Did the GT writers just use the Christian story of Jesus? I'm thinking they did.

I think that Goku died for the characters ...

If you could create real-life Dragon Balls, would you do so?

Do you think that the benefits of the Dragon Balls outweigh the costs? When I look at the problems with Pilaf, the Red Ribbon Army, and Piccolo Daimou, I say probably not.

During the Cell saga, Goku said that he didn't want to be wished back, because he basically attracts enemies and therefore is ...

Re: Why do Super Saiyans have blonde hair and bluish-green e

Yeah, but anything "could be" a conspiracy. Unless there's any actual evidence that it is though, it's a complete non-issue.

But it is an issue. Why do SSJs have blonde hair and blue-green eyes? Why not other colors? Fine, I understand that Mr. Toriyama was too lazy to color in the hair, but who ...

Re: Why do Super Saiyans have blonde hair and bluish-green e


I didn't use the words "close minded sheep", but I would call anyone who acts like there ain't no such thing as a conspiracy a "close-minded sheep."

So now Toriyama is at the center of an international, subliminal Nazi conspiracy that has stretched on for over 25 years? Thank you so much ...
