Dragonball Stuff You've Just Realized

That the Sparking/Tenkaichi video games are labeled as "Dragonball Z", yet feature characters from DB and GT as well, while the RB series is simply labeled as "Dragonball", yet only features DBZ characters. WTF?

Good point... Dragonball Z just seems to sell more as a name. Everyone knows and recognizes the ring of DBZ. I think that Raging Blast went to just Dragonball because of Dragonball Kai. Dragonball is more broad and encompasses everything, mainly to encapsulate Z and Kai without leaving either out. Hopefully the Raging Blast series will grow outside of Z into more original DB, GT,and film territories. Hopefully they'll fix that god-awful camera while they're at it...

I just realized Vegeta killed everyone in the Ginyu force, except Captain Ginyu!

Guldo - Got his head blown off by Vegeta
Jees - Got blasted into dust by Vegeta
Burta - Was barley alive after Goku fought him, but ultimately Vegeta gave him a knee to the neck which killed him.
Recoom - After being pounded half to death by Goku, Vegeta blasted him atoms!

Correct in both Japanese (Masako Nozawa) and FUNimation's English dub (Stephanie Nedolny).
Until Z-Kai, anyway.

I just noticed after all these years that in the first opening of DBZ at the end when they show Goku go SSJ, that Trunks is actually looking towards Vegeta.

Haha, yeah, I've always found it funny.... especially since Jheise was the only one he actually killed in a real fight.

Plus, he only spared Ginyu because he thought it was funny.

I just realized I kind of enjoy the closing theme to the ultimate uncut redub.

I'd actually never noticed that before. Good call.

Is that the one on the season sets too? If so, I really agree.

This is more of an interesting titbit, since plenty of us have known this for a long time, and oh yeah, it's really really obvious, but every time I remember it I think "Dayyyymn bitch."

Kuririn was killed by Ryusei Nakao twice (Tambourine, Freeza).

I just realized the main Dr. Slump characters are on the spine art of the manga. The sad thing is that I have the spine art as my current persona on Firefox....

Also, this is a bit of a stretch, but another thing that I just realized is that the lead singer of Dream Theater, who's music was in The History of Trunks, has the last name LaBrie. What is the last name of the first couple here on Daizenshuu EX....?

Goku, Gohan, Goten, Bardock, Tullece & Goku Jr. all have the same voice actor in Dragon Ball, Dragon Ball Z & Dragon Ball GT. -___-

Also, I just found out that addition to Bibidi Babidi Buu, there's also Abra Ka-Dabura. I can't believe I never saw that. O_O

Yeah it is. It kind of keeps the same cutesy tone as the original but adds an electronica spin.

Yeah. I really dig it. Also, are they whispering "Dragon, Rock the Dragon" throughout the song? If so, that's even more awesome.

I think he's talking about the dub?

Oozaru's are only 30 metters tall (Unless I'm wrong) since I used to think that they where a lot bigger then that.

I'm happy that the Swedish translation used the variation "Dabra" instead, because of that then "abrakadabra" makes more sense as the origin of his name.

I recently noticed that every Saiya-jin has the name of a single type of Vegetable, whilst Vegeta has the "collection" name of all vegetables, to point out that he is above them (at least before the planet blew up). Also that the planet has the same name because of that it contains a lot of vegetables.
A planet of vegetable fighters. XD

I believe they are saying "summon up the dragon".

Well, every pure-blood Saiyan. Not counting Toma. Tomatoes are fruits

Look at it this way... A T-Rex is "only" 20 feet (6 metters) tall, and yet he is freaking huge.

Imagine an Oozaru of "only" 30 metters in height.

Most translations use Dabra. Funi's "Dabura" spelling only exists because the mistake wasn't caught until it was too late to correct it. Same with Kibito's name, which is spelled "Kibit" in Funi's stuff.
