Dragonball Errors

[FindKenshi]

Is it me or does Freeza look better with black armor?

It's you. My master, Evilord Freeza, wears the colors more suited for royalty.

[Son_Gohan]

Here's one with Vegeta's undershirt being colored wrong and some of the numerous inconsistencies with the hole Krillin put through Vegeta's armor; it sometimes disappearing entirely, only appearing on the brown portion, or taking up part of the white portion as well.

Episode 83



Episode 86

[Pokewhiz7]

Found a few more today.
Episode 14
Goku's sleeves are missing.

Episode 16
"BEPAIRS"

Gohan's shirt is missing its kanji.

First we see this textbook:

...but then it has a 4 on it!

[Tanooki Kuribo]

Gohan's shirt is missing its kanji.

Dude, that's just nit-picky. Who's to say they weren't wearing their shirts with kanji on it that particular day.

Also, it's typical for the animators to skimp on the details when the character is shown smaller than usual.

Episode 208



Goku's arm passes right through Oolong's ear, also his halo appears to be missing.

[Phred]

One thing that always bugged me was one short scene where Oozaru Vegeta's tail is noticeably coloured in too brightly.

Also GT tended to be a bit indecisive on if a super saiyan's tail should be yellow or not, but I don't have pics on hand.

When Piccolo creates a tornado, Gohan is briefly animated with a tail for some reason.


It's gone within the same scene.

[Gonstead]

Maybe it grew back and was pulled off incredibly fast XD.

[TheDevilsCorpse]

Maybe it grew back and was pulled off incredibly fast XD.

Grew back in the "Oh SHIT!" moment, and then the tiger finally got to snack on Gohan like he always wanted. =P

[Perfect]

Eh, I don't see it being too brightly colored (Vegeta's tail).

Piccolo having 5 fingers is a common error in the anime. Does this error also occurs in the manga

Piccolo having 5 fingers in the anime is NOT an error. That's how he is in the anime. The same goes for all other Namekians, Dodoria, First-form Cell and Kewi.

[peter291]

Thanks, I didn't know that. So inversely, is Piccolo shown in the anime with 4 fingers?

[SHINOBI-03]

Thanks, I didn't know that. So inversely, is Piccolo shown in the anime with 4 fingers?

He's always with five fingers in the anime. Anything else would be an error. Four fingers in Japan is the same as the middle finger else where.

[kei17]

Four fingers in Japan is the same as the middle finger else where.

Though they are the same taboo, I can hardly say they are the same things. Four fingers mean "yotsu", which is a discriminatory word refers to the lowest classes.

[SHINOBI-03]

I know it's some sort of insult. The same reason Oddworld changed the Modukons having three fingers in Abe's Exoddus instead of four like in Abe's Oddysee.

[Phred]

Eh, I don't see it being too brightly colored (Vegeta's tail).

It sticks out compared to the scenes around it

Its as if they only coloured in the highlight and forgot about the shading.

[Son_Gohan]

Episode 87



Goku's undershirt colored wrong.



Yamcha missing a scar on his left cheek.



Tien missing the scar on his chest.

[Phred]

When Gohan falls of the rock while Goku is telling him to look at the fake moon, his tail isn't there.

You can see it in the very next shot though.

Also I forgot to turn subtitles off on my dragon box. Oh well.
And while I've got that episode loaded up, Oozaru Gohan's nails are sometimes long black claws and sometimes they're just normal human-like nails.
And they switch really quickly between cuts.







I guess it's just a difference between animators or something, but here they just didn't colour in his thumb toenails.

[Drayenko]

This thread is so nit-picky. Now I won't watch Dragon Ball the same way... .

[samuraix123]

Then that means we have succeeded in our diabolical plan muhahaha
