I would love to see Vegeta's reaction to finding out that his sister-in-law is an alien, even though his wife is too.
Tarble's wife? Vegeta and Tarble are related?
Ah!!!
Sorry, I haven't been online very much recently...

Yep! It's OK that you havn't been on in a while, but you have missed a lot of info on this special.

You could read through the last 7 or 8 pages of this thread (which I had to do a day or two ago after my three day break) but I'm pretty sure that Hujio's review/synopsis of the special covers it all.

Not to be overly possessive, but that's my synopsis translation that I posted on this thread awhile back. Hujio just cleaned it up a little.

We might, if they screamed all the time, for no good reason.

Oh, my bad. I really only got to skim through those pages of this thread and I guess I didn't see that. The whole "Synopsis/Images by: Hujio" tag at the bottom of that page is why I assumed it was all Hujio's great work. Sorry.

So this airs again (in Tokyo this time) on Saturday?

Are there better odds on screenshots (or better yet, video) surfacing from this airing of the special?

I don't see why there would be. The fact that all of the viewers are probably kept on some master list is probably keeping a lot of peopel from risking things and recording it.

A "master list". Sounds a bit extreme. :shock:

I'm still hoping for screenshots, clips, or *those character sheets. (*nudge-nudge, wink-wink, please-please someone post those character sheets already?)

It's such a tease on their part, having Launch on the poster, and not having the decency to give her an appearance in the special! I've always wondered what happened to her, I've always assumed she was finally dragged away by men in white coats that worked in the mental hospital she had originally escaped from....

I think a sister of Vegeta's would have been more interesting, then a brother who looks practically the same only with a more boy-ish appearance.

Damn, sorry. I sometimes forget about those tags at the bottom of the page. I'll be sure to update those sometime soon.

I think she means the ones previewed on the site's front page at the moment. I'm pretty sure the full-size ones got posted on the forums somewhere already, but I don't remember where.

The ones Wasted Wisher ( http://db.schuby.org/daizex/search.php? ... ted+Wisher ) sent to EX and backthen.

And which were spoken of on the latest podcast:
http://db.schuby.org/daizex/viewtopic.php?t=8587

On the podcast they talked about Goku, Kuririn, Vegeta, and Marron's character sheets; yet no one has posted them anywhere.

There's supposedly an entire set of character sheets for Goku, Vegeta, and others that came with the sheets that've been posted for Table, Aka, Abo, and Kado.

She went looking for Tenshinhan. Since he moved from one mountainous area to the next, she never found him. Her only Z-era manga appearance never got published in the tankoubon because it was part of two 3-panel strips with a holiday-theme (published only during the Weekly Jump issues they originated from) during the Goku vs Freeza battle. Since we knew what Goku, Gohan, Krillin, Vegeta and Piccolo were obviously doing during the x-mas season, Toriyama drew everybody else at Kaio's, Roshi's, as well as Bulma hiding in the crevice. He also drew Lunch, who was STILL in some mountainous area looking around for Tenshinhan.

@Rocketman: There were design sheets for people like Goku (while wearing new civilian clothes), etc, from the special. We've only seen the new characters' design sheets so far.

Look at the top-right corner of that image!

Goten's got a new outfit, I can see Yamcha's Boo Saga clothes, and Kuririn seems to be in the same outfit he was in at the Boo Saga's Tenkaichi Tournament before he changed into his fighting clothes. We can assume he has hair in the special then.

I support you in your efforts to get a link to these character sheets. We heard about them ages ago, and still nothing...

Seeing that picture, I can better imagine Table being Goku's age. He's just a short guy, but his face looks fully matured.

Thank you so much. TTuTT

I wish Wasted Wisher was still around; he or she hasn't posted in over a week and I'd totally ask for the rar file directly if I had evidence that they're still here.

I don't know why the images were never posted with the podcast. :?:



Also; that bigger version of the screenshot with Vegeta and Tabaru looks amazing. X3
