Gohan going SSJ2 in the Cell games. A LOT of emotion that really brought it all out and you can really feel his rage when he screams like crazy.

Not to be totally off the subject, but this whole confusion of timelines has given me a reasonable idea about how time travel would work out and how it would result. I mean seriously, if you went back in time to kill your own parents, would that at all affect your current existance to begin with? Or...

And Asia Carrera declined because she was pregneant? Makes you wonder who the father is :P Didn't know she was THAT DESPERATE to get into the mainstream if that's why she was approached. But I think Goldberg (despite only having two moves), would fit well with DBZ live action. Especially as Nappa. I...

I wouldn't say the moments in DBZ/DB/DBGT are emotional, but just have incredible impact with how they present it. Well, can't say that I ever cried but there have been some close calls. Dragon Ball movie 4: Where Hacchan dies and it unleashes Gokuu's rage. Dragon Ball Z: Where Gohan goes Super Saiy...

Asia Carrera selected to be in DBZ? Or the source really mean Tia Carrie (sp?), from Wayne's World as Cassandra? If that is true, then what rumors will they come up with next, RON JEREMY AS MR. SATAN!!!??? Other rumors I heard (that have never really been confirmed) are that former WCW (and WWF) sup...

Sadly, my dad actually once trained with Frank Dux when he was stationed in Japan, but not to be a ninja :P. He happened to have met him in 1975, the year the kumite takes place. But I heard it really took place in the Bahamas, and not in Hong Kong. The reason why I brought up Frank Dux into the dis...

Shouldn't the Piccolo we seen throughout DBZ really be the son of Piccolo Daimaoh who seperated from Kami, the original being who is the son of Kattat? :lol:

Has anyone ever read the original Saiyuuki?

I went to my university's library, and the only copy they had was the original Chinese version. Though I have tooken just one year of Chinese, it's still not good enough. However, my Korean friend once showed me a Korean drama re-telling of it. About how the main character is of course a monkey-man ...

Freeza does wonder if Gohan does look like Vejita or Nappa, but says he doesn't look like them. Then he says that he does bear some resemblence to Raditz also being unaware that his older brother, Coola, let Raditz's little brother off the hook 8) Then again, maybe in Gokuu's family tree, the second...

I was going to ask a question on the seiyuus as well. Mr. Popo sounds totally different. I know that Roshi's died sometime after DBZ ended. After I watched my DBZ DVDs again, Piccolo and Vejita sounded the same to me. I thought they sounded different as well at first.

Yeah, I should ahve mentioned I got the Japanese version. When you get to some of the DBGT story arcs, it has Dan Dan Kokoro Hikareteku as the BGM (the instrumental version). As much as I didn't like DBGT, I still loved the music.

But ignoring GT, Kami made the DBs after his split from Piccolo. Looking at his battle as Shen, we can see he's not a great fighter, just really strong by human standards. Well Kami was pretty old when they introduced him so I guess that was also why he couldn't stand well against Ma, Jr. at the to...

I watched the DVD last night when Dende is healing someone and Piccolo asked if he had that kind of ability as well. Dende said that Piccolo is a warrior type and doesn't have that kind of power. I know they do regenerating but Piccolo puts his fingers up against the bite wounds on his neck and heal...

My brother got this game a few weeks ago. I was blown away by the intro. Mostly by the fact that We Gotta Power was the opening theme. I especially love the part where Gokuu beats up Buu in the Shunkan Idou dimension thing. That was cool. The game is pretty fun, but I don't like how transformations ...

Yeah, Dragon Ball will live on forever....or for a long time. Dragon Ball is one of the franchises that internationalized anime all over the world. Saint Seiya probably could have done this if it were released in the late 80s to America but Dragon Ball beat the punch to it. Though it tends to get ba...

Piccolo healing himself in Garlic, Jr. saga

Maybe this question has been addressed before and I did tried looking and must have missed it. Anyway, on to the question. I am currently on the Garlic, Jr. saga with my DBZ DVDs I got and when Piccolo reveals he was really faking being under Garlic's control, he used the healing powers Dende also u...
