Depends on the animators involved.
Super logic agrees with you but in halfway sane land, it shouldn't make a difference right? Besides the enclosed eyes?
I guess. But I don't really care for the form or for Gohan enough to give a more detailed answer, in all honesty.

I mean Gohan is only a half bred, so maybe regular gel works?

Edit- Wow I completely mis read this lmao it is late and I am waiting for Super.

I agree, but is 'Ultimate' in fact a transformation?

I think so, you have to transform into Super Saiyan to use it.

Pretty sure that is a misconception I am pretty sure Elder Kai said transform like you would a Super Saiyan.

Yea that's what I meant, I'd say that would qualify it as a transformation.

Turns out I'm an idiot who's never accurately adjusted the colors on his screen before. Once I did, I popped in one of my Z Season Blu-rays, and to my surprise, the colors on them actually look fine. Figured this is the best place to rescind any of those complaints, since I doubt I could find every last one and correct it.

I think the series could've avoided the ROSAT problem if they made it a timeline exclusive thing. For example, it's implied Kami sensed Cell so why not use that, and the recent alien incursions as a motivating factor into making the ROSAT.

Maybe tie it into Trunks' warning also letting Kami know that the good guys might need a quick way to power up.
When someone tells you, "Don't present your opinion as fact," what they're actually saying is, "Don't present your opinion with any conviction. Because I don't like your opinion, and I want to be able to dismiss it as easily as possible." Don't fall for it.

Dragon Ball was always a kid series and fans should stop being in denial.

I always thought Aitsu wa Son Gokuu was a insert song that would play in Episode 208 when Vegeta finally admits that Goku is the #1, but I was disappointed it didn't (of course it doesn't ruin the scene in anyway), but anyone knows the origin of this song?

It's an image song, performed by Kageyama & Waffle, from Dragon Ball Z Hit Song Collection.

Mate, I had no idea my TV was on the wrong colour settings for years, so glad I decided to ask about that SSG colour on here, looks like I have to re-watch everything I watched on that tv... :lol: .... :(

Goku going SSJ was such a misdirection to what really happened.
Not to mention the first poster

That's actually exactly what made me look into it if I'm remembering right. Although the crux of my post was mentioning that Funimation's Z Blu-ray colors look fine on my screen now, at that really proved to me that a properly-adjusted screen is important. A significant crusade I've gone on about for most of my time here is the need for a new, decent home release for Funimation, only to find out that it was my own fault the latest Blu-rays were so unwatchable. I almost feel some sort of guilt about it, I'd hate to have discouraged someone from supporting the series under false pretenses.

Thanks a lot for the info, mate! :thumbup:
Impressive how the English dub nailed this teaser better than the original, particularly in Schemmel's part.

Yeah the art in that story was fantastic, and Toriyama finally got over his bizarre "two-pack" hang-up:

I am writing here because I don't feel the need to make a whole new thread, just to answer a single question.

In my collection I own the Madman R4 set for the original Dragon Ball anime. I have watched the entire set and I am mostly satisfied with it, however I prefer to watch the japanese version throughout which happens to cause a minor problem for episode 73 (dubtitles) and 81 (skipping). It's not a huge deal but I would like to watch these episodes without much hassle so I am thinking of buying the american Fortune Teller Baba Saga Set and just replace the discs from the Madman R4 set but I am unsure if those have the same issues. If that's the case then I might be better off buying the Blue Bricks Season 3 to support my collection.

So are anyone in the know about this issue? Would it be a solution to buy the american Fortune Teller Baba set or should I buy the Blue Brick set? Region locking is a non-issue as I watch everything on a region free DVD-player. :)
