Re: How would Cell treat Dr. Gero?
Well it's a stupid mistake because Gohan would have hit him, thus killing them all there, while he still might survive. Gohan would have hit Cell before Goku would have teleported him away. I don't think that was a mistake. Cell didn't want to blow them away right there and then. He enjoyed watchin...

Re: Gohan's Sunday-school clothes?
Well, in the original he says "clothes like for Shichigosan". Shichigosan (七五三) is a festival (shrine visit) by children aged 7, 5 and 3 (or more exactly, for boys of three and five and girls of three and seven).
So it's just a change in translation for cultural reasons.

Re: How did Cell know about the Freeza/Trunks battle?
So, to sum up: How did Cell know about the Freeza/Trunks battle? 1. The easy and real explanation: Toriyama's huge mistake, as well as other mistakes in the same episode. Everybody is happy. 2. Huge complicated timelines theory. Everybody's brain explodes trying to make sense of something that doesn...

Re: How would Cell treat Dr. Gero?
That's History 3, and that will be too confusing to discuss. But yeah, I guess it's possible, so I am not sure if Cell knew or not that No.17 killed Dr. Gero. Exactly, it's too complicated because Toriyama didn't think it through from the beginning and made a lot of mistakes. From my point of view ...

Re: How would Cell treat Dr. Gero?
Also note that "sama" is part of why he failed to trick #18, he even switched up his pronoun to be more like #17 (I think that's 1 of 3 times he does so). I'm also not sure if he ever used sama in his imperfect form, I think it was always perfect. I found the remaining times that Cells me...

Re: How would Cell treat Dr. Gero?
Just to clear things up a little bit, when Cell talks to Piccolo, he says "Doctor Gero", without "sama", as much as 4 times. http://imageftw.com/uploads/20120219/Cell%20Gero.jpg I don't know if later he says the "sama", apart from that time when he talks to #18, but I w...

Re: Dragonball Errors
A few mistakes in 2 episodes when Trunks fights Cell. 1. First one in the top, part of Goku's blue clothes are colored like his neck when he is SS, then turn blue when goes back to normal. 2. Vegeta's boot is missing the yellow part. 3. That is Trunks' knee. You could consider it a mistake or not, b...

Re: How did Cell know about the Freeza/Trunks battle?
1. I'm not sure if I'm understanding this one right, but Gero talked to Cell through prerecorded messages via the super computer. No, it's not that. When Piccolo gets Cell to talk, the dialogue goes like this: Piccolo: How did you collect the cells...? There wasn't anyone suspicious around at that ...

Re: How did Cell know about the Freeza/Trunks battle?
I don't have the exact quotes, and I'm not even sure that it was explicitly said Cell arrived 3 years ago. Maybe it's just implied, with Cell's hibernation time or whatever. Perhaps Herms or someone can provide quotes from the original manga. Yeah I found it, it's when Cell and Piccolo are talking,...

Re: The Awkward Age
It's contradictory though, because they say Cell arrived 4 years ago but that he grew for 3 years. So there's a missing year somewhere in there. Maaaayyybe it could be like this: Trunks says the machine arrived "about 4 years ago", right? So maybe he just looked at the year, if present ti...

Re: How did Cell know about the Freeza/Trunks battle?
Even I don't fully understand it. What I mean is that sometimes the characters say that Cell arrived three years ago; other times they say he arrived 4 years ago. I'm curious, when do they say that Cell arrived 3 years ago? And Trunks was going to travel three years into the past from his perspecti...

Re: The Awkward Age
Herms, great job on the guides! However, a little mistake you made: when Cell shows up 4 years before Trunks that becomes “Year -4” Year -4 --Cell arrives in “main” timeline (c358) Year -1 --Cell’s underground growth ends? (c363) Cell shows up 4 years before Trunks' second trip, which is Year 3. So ...

Re: Is Bardock the Legendary Super Saiyan?
The Legendary Super Saiyan in the myths that was talked about in the DBZ anime. Is it Bardock? Chilled, before he died told his henchmen to warm those who would come after him, could this story have been passed down generation to generation until finally Freeza came to know about it? Would this con...

Re: How did Cell know about the Freeza/Trunks battle?
What I don't understand is, why did it take a month for Bulma to make a controller in our timeline and 17 years to make one in Dead Trunks's? It didn't take a month, just a couple of days. And in the future, she couldn't make one until Trunks took the blueprints from the present, or maybe he brough...

Re: How did Cell know about the Freeza/Trunks battle?
The explanations even seem to shift from 3 to 4 years. It was supposed to be that Trunks would travel three years into the past to tell Gokuu and co. that he'd defeated the Androids in that time. Presumably, it wouldn't be "after the Cell Games", because in the timeline that he was going ...

Re: Question Regarding the Selecta Vision Dragon Boxes
Also, the Z Boxes were the only ones without the next episode previews, in case you're into that. Really? That's too bad if it's incomplete :? What about the 2 disc edition? Do you know if it has the episode titles, mid-episode ad break (whatever that is called in English) and the next episode prev...
