If anyone wants to translate what's actually being said, that'd be great. You don't necessarily have to make up your own dialogue (in fact, I'd encourage you not to... what's actually being said is probably the best you're gonna get

).

Yep.

Using my extensive knowledge of Japanese, I'd go for:

Goku: I would like to buy some shoes.

Piccolo: Bounce to giant sandwhich.

That's probably it. I'd put money on it.

Piccolo: Come here!!

Gokuu: I'm going home~

Or something like that. But what in the world is Piccolo doing? It looks like he's holding a candle and a whip. Maybe I'm better off not knowing...

Where is this from anyway? Eh?

The two have both been from a doujinshi called "HEAD-CHA-LA"... this one in particular is volume four. From what I've been told, it's a pretty well-known circle that does them, and they're extremely well-known for being able to nail Toriyama's style dead-on. Both pics I've scanned have just been fun little things... the main stories have drawings that you honestly would not be able to distinguish from Toriyama's art.

I generally have no interest in doujinshi, but I love this one, and want more ^^.

Here's my translation:

Certainly bizarre...

Maybe we should do a section of translated one-shots from these doujinshi... Meri's got some funny-ass ones, too

The whole picture doesn't look right to me.Why is Piccolo holding a whip and a candle

. I wonder about Piccolo now.

I was wondering if it was some gag pics Toriyama did, because they are really close to his style, as you say.

The only thing is that Piccolo looks like a grown-up Dende, for some reason. And that's weird, since they have pretty similar faces. I dunno.

That would be awesome! I still have tons of doujinshi stories I would love to have translated (be it by Julian or Rachel, or anyone who is willing or has time. ^^;;).

I've read much of the Head-Cha-La series. IMnot-soHO, they have even better art than Toriyama's. They're often more fluid and expressive. The reason for the candle and whip... Every HCL book has at least one Piccolo/Goku romantic story. Some are Shonen-ai, some light Yaoi, and in the HCL X books, they're... well, you can guess. ^_^

Post by **VegettoEX** » Sat Jan 31, 2004 4:15 pm

Yeah, I found a site the other day that had a couple sample scans and descriptions from the "HEAD-CHA-LA" books... they seem to get a little more yaoi-ish as books pass, which REALLY makes me want to stay clear of them...

But this book... so.. fucking... funny...

Alias · Post by **Alias** » Sat Jan 31, 2004 4:35 pm

There's a site, http://www.dragonball-doujinshi.com that has a lot of Doujinshi books fully scanned, including HCL 8 and Gwhat (both are by the Yokoshima sisters). All you have to do is contribute a few of your own scans to get membership and access the collection.

As for HCL... I don't like the Yaoi stuff, but the art and other stories have few rivals in terms of quality. I've read a ton of Doujinshis too, very few are as good.

One extra note, HCL 8 isn't Yaoi, but it has a rather large section of the sisters defending the couple, as well as the main focus being P/G (not too touchy-feely, but still centered on that couple).

Gwhat, if you can't read it, is a bit ecchi. The reason Trunks is so upset in the beginning is because his sister has come to the conclusion that he's gay due to the amount of time he spends with Juunanagou. The second story is P/G, and has Marron painting the two together...

LOL, this pictures are funny. I've gotta check that site out.

God I hate Kanji....outside of that I get this

Piccolo: Saaaa (Kanji character I don't know) Nasai!!!

Effect: Rai, Rai, Rai.....

Goku: (hooray for more Kanji I don't know) Ru

Best I can figure out:

Nadda...it'd help if I knew those Kanji but I don't...

It says:

*bows to the great master of Kanji*

Who wants to bet my Japanese textbook doesnt have any of that

Well I can get most of it outside of what Piccolo says soooo heres my best accurate translation:

Yes I know Kaeru is "to return" but you don't scream "RETURN!!" but well Monty Python does have something that can work
