First text bubble: "A few minutes later."

Vegeta (1 text bubble): "Hey, Goten".

Vegeta (2 text bubble): "You`re the only one who`s not doing anything, instead of wasting time why don`t you train with me?"

Vegeta (thinking): "I, the great Vegeta, begging for someone to come train with me. Humiliating!"

Goten (1 text bubble): "Eh... That`s fine with me, Mr. Vegeta, but my mother doesn`t want to be alone..."

ChiChi (1 text bubble): "Goten! Don`t worry about me. You have neglected your training long enough. Go with Vegeta."

Chichi (thinking): "I hope that will make him forget all about that girl from the capital."

Goten (2): "What?!"

Goten (3): "Mum, no... Wait"

Vegeta (thinking): "It wasn`t such a bad idea to talk to Chichi."

Vegeta (3): "Its settled. I`ll be waiting for you tomorrow at the capsule corporation, Goten".

Goten: (4): "Oh, no... Now what am I going to do?"

I was Google Translating it before, but the version I did had different art. Well, WORSE art.

Compare these two.

If you use the title pages from the French version, they're in color!

008

Box with the building: On the next day, Goten heads to the Capsule Corporation...

Goten thinking 1: Mr. Vegeta must be out of his mind. How can he consider to keep training if it is absurd to think that beings more powerfull than him and my dad exist...?

Goten thinking 2: ... That transformation is simply unbeatable...

Goten thinking 3: I really think this training will just be a waste of time...

Goten talking 1: And I who was thinking of spending the summer with peers...

009

Goten talking 1: Good day, Mr Vegeta. I`m ready to start the training.

Vegeta talking 1: Goten, you`re late. I was beggining to think you werent coming.

Goten talking 2: I`m sorry, its just that I overslept and...

Vegeta talking 2: Hurry, follow me. The ship is waiting for us.

Goten talking 3: What?... Why do we need a ship Mr. Vegeta if we can just fly, unless... Don`t tell me..!

Vegeta thinking 1: Where is the ship?

Vegeta talking 3: That`s it Goten, we`ll go to an unhabited planet. Did you believe by any chance that the Earth would resist our training? The planet we are going to is very resistent and it`s not very far away. If all goes well we`ll be back in one year.

Goten talking 4: One... One year?!

Vegeta talking 4: Yes, one year. Don`t you think that`s great? And don`t complain and hurry, or we`ll stay even longer if I feel like it.

My spanish mediocre, but I gave 10 a try.

010

Goten: Are we going to go there Vegeta?
Vegeta: It will only take a few hours with this ship.
Vegeta: Very good Goten. Say goodbye to this planet for a good while.
Goten: What are we going to eat Vegeta?
Vegeta: Don't worry Goten. There is food stored in the capsules.
Goten:Capsule food?! You know that sucks!

Edit:

11 too

Popo: Did you find something out Kami?
Dende: Yes, even though it is only an old myth...
Popo: A myth?
Popo: About what?
Dende: It is related to the origin of the Dragonballs. I'll tell it to you...

The next page is a little too text heavy for my abilities.

I edited in red some of the things I would change. You did a good job. You only translated the very first sentence wrong. Everything else was right but I edited it to make it closer to the original text. But the meaning is about the same.

Thanks for correcting it. I admittedly took some liberties on purpose. I didn't bother translating Señor to Mr. because I thought that, in this context, it was sort of superfluous when translated to English.

Was anybody translating this? It's artwork is on par with DBAF and DBM. The first five chapters are up in Spanish, whereas only the first two are in French.

I could translate the French one, but I don't want to since the original can be translated by a ton of people here.
Nice :shock: . Can contact the author...

If you are interested in translating this manga to some other language, contact the author.

The English translation is kind of spotty. At times, I can't even understand it.

This is actually pretty nice. The artwork isn't as good as the other two fan-made Mangas but the story looks interesting (even though a bit silly). However the fact Vegeta and Goten went SSJ3 kinda ruined a bit for me.
I will track it from now on. :)

Just a question: who is that guy at the beginning of chapter 3?
