They spent all those years training on Uub's home island, not Kami's sanctuary. They only went up there for the "graduation" battle, where Goku and Uub could go all-out without fear of damaging any cities or portions of the Earth. I agree that Goku's "tan" can be attributed to the location of Uub's island and nonstop training/living outdoors.

As for movie villains in GT, yeah, Coola was the only movie character whom had an appearance, a cameo at that. Garlic Jr. also gets a sort of hidden reference in the holy-purifying water used in his DBZ saga being used to cleanse Baby's victims. I'm not sure why such a big case is made out of "movie characters in GT" to the point where it's greatly exaggerated in being a prob IMO, since Haiya Dragon also appears in a couple (non-Garlic Jr. saga) DBZ episodes and those aren't automatically considered "non-canon!" with the anime. Coola (though only as far as his movie 5 appearance), in addition to Garlic Jr., was also specifically included in a Daizenshuu anime timeframe, so his cameo is not a big deal in the context of viewing GT as canon material with the anime and not the manga.

From my point of view anyway.

As for Vegeta knowing how to perform fusion, while DBZ movie 12 obviously has to be non-canon, he does comment on knowing of the dance when Goku wants to pull it off in the DBZ anime after they've reverted Super Buu back to his "Evil Buu" self. This may've been anime-only and despite not seeing the mental-Goten-&-Trunks performing the technique, it's very possible he watched in on Goku via some anime-HELL means as he taught the boys. This anime viewpoint contradicts with movie 12 too, where he seemingly had no memories of his time while being dead, neither mentioning Goku's SSJ3 form or knowing how to perform fusion.

He says that in the manga as well. He mentions seeing it from the afterlife.

Still the tan theory comes through as isn't Uub's island like Africa? Every time they show it it looks like Africa from the clothes they wear ect... So it could still be a tan.

It is shown a couple times in GT. It's seen once while Goku evacuates him and his village as Earth is dying from the Black-Star balls, then once more during the Super 17 arc when Uub first sees the rift between Earth and Hell. The latter of which I got a pic of for my "Oob" profile.

You know what? I actually remember the scene with Oob on his island.

I remember seeing Uub's village in one of the very few episodes of GT I've seen, but I thought there was no Africa/Japan or anything like that in the Dragonball world because it takes place in a sort of alternate earth.

Yes, there are no countries in the Dragonworld that are here in our world.

Here's a look at the Dragonworld as drawn by Akira Toryama himself:

And here's some more information on it:

^Okay, thanks for that. I just wanted to make sure I was remembering right. I think I've even seen that picture of Earth before on the Ultimate Information Site.

I wouldn't say that, the Dragon World or what ever it's called, isn't that same Earth as here, they wouldn't have the same country names.

They don't even really have individual countries in the Dragon World; it's just one world-nation ruled by Mr. Dog.

Sure go to www.bestbuy.com and type in "Dragonball GT"
order some DVD's fill in your infromation and wait 2-6 weeks for your order. Then you can even watch DBGT subbed and dubbed on your TV no less!

Yeah, you see. I'm not the type that actually'buys' stuff on Internet, not even Dragonball, whom I've loved since I was child.

Do you know where I can directly download or watch them?.. Maybe a torrent or something...

You won't get any help from us, for one of countless reasons, it's against the rules of this message board to talk of bootlegs/downloads in this manner. I will say, you may get lots of disdain from Mike/EX and others here like myself, whom spent our hard-earned money on the FUNi or Toei releases. Downloading something that's so legally available and casually talking of it like it's not a problem is a spit in the faces to all of us, FUNimation (whom did give us good DVDs for this series), Toei, and even Akira Toriyama who all worked on and/or put money into this series.

Its just downloading dude. Much worse things in the world. Me I'm going to buy the season sets when they come out. But I'm not going to take it personally that somebody else is going to download it.
