Dragonball Stuff You've Just Realized

Post by Blue » Mon Jul 05, 2010 1:58 pm

I JUST noticed the Ginyu Force's first pose after their introduction forms their emblem. I can't believe I'm so slow. Did you guys ever have any sudden realizations like this regarding Dragon Ball?

2 days ago, I've just noticed that the DVD logo on the DVD books of DBox 3 are not presented but Dbox 1 have it, I don't know about box 2 because I don't have it.

I also just noticed The Red Ribbon Army saga is the 3rd longest in all of the 3 series.
(This is if you separate Namek from the Freeza arc,Android from the Cell arc and the Other World Tournament and Great Saiyaman arcs from the Boo arc.)

Recently noticed this. In the anime when Bulma is searching #16 memory data, there's a picture of SSJ Goku. Even though Dr. Gero admitted he stopped spying on him before he went to Namek.

Is that in the manga too? If it isn't, then Toei is to blame. :P

I'm pretty sure we don't see Bulma working on 16 at all in the manga.

I just noticed earlier today that during the 1st opening to DBGT when Goku, Pan and Trunks are flying out of a cave that's closing, Pan and Trunks fly out of the tiny space right before it closes but Goku flys through the door made of rock which causes it to break. I've seen that opening many times and never noticed till now.

This is the only panel we see, so no SSJ Goku. Sorry for the scanlation, I don't have a scanner!

You ever notice Shenron always has green hair in the anime, but on some promotional art and toys he has purple hair! :shock:

^ Woah my mind has been blown. Now I'll always have to consistently keep an eye out to see what color his hair is. :lol:

Edit: Was his hair purple in movie 13 of am I misremembering things?

I think he was actually referring to this:

Yamcha: Do you remember the spell to release him - do you know all the words?
Bulma: Of course! I'm not gonna pull a Frieza and screw it up!
Master Roshi: Bulma, I think Frieza failed because he wore too many clothes!

I knew something different from him on the Anime and promotional art, I just can't figured it out :?

I always thought that the Ginyu emblem was just an emblem shaped like Captain Ginyu's head.....ya know like a face with horns.....
I’ve got a lovely bunch of Dragonballs
There they are all standing in a row
Big ones, small ones, some as big as your head!
