"Gokuu" is not really a wrong way to spell Goku if I remember it right. You could also write it as "Gokû", I believe.

And "Gokuh" too.

Not to mention Gokū.

I think you guys are missing the point... Unless they switch hats during the episode?

Chichi gave Piccolo some of Goku's clothes to wear. Goku must have had a hat with his name on it.

My mistake, I thought Piccolo's hat said POSTBOY. It was his shirt.

Cell's design in Ultimate Blast/Tenkaichi is supposed to be dark green like how it is in the manga instead of neon green.

Goku didn't die in GT. The show sucked him off so much, it was impossible to keep him in the world of the living, so he ascended beyond mortality.

I'm just about done with the concept of reboots and making shows that were products of their time and impactful "new and sexy" and in line with modern tastes and sensibilities. Let stuff stay in their era and give today's kids their own shit to watch.
I always side eye the people who say "Now my kids/today's kids can experience what I did as a child!" Nigga, who gives a fuck about
your childhood? You're an adult now and it was at least 15 years ago. Let the kids have their own experience instead of picking at a corpse.

Has anyone noticed that in the second ending of Kai Porunga is missing his antennas?

The Dragonboxes are like a middle aged woman who still looks good through simply taking good care of her skin and body with maybe a tiny bit of makeup while the Orange Bricks are like a middle aged woman who get's 50 tons of botox, makeup and plastic surgery in order to look younger and as a result looks even worse. ~ ringworm128

I've always considered the 4th panel on the following page a minor error, because it looks like Goku's thumb is behind his face, when it shouldn't be. There's a similar panel later in the chapter, where it's done right:

Note: panel on the right has been cropped by me.

No it doesn't... Look at the top of his thumb; it's clearly cutting over his face, albeit slightly. I don't see how it looks like it's behind his face.

It's that thick black line that makes it look off to me.
...
In any case here's one that isn't debatable:

Notice something missing in the second panel?

I just spent the last minute looking at the second panel thinking it was something quite un-noticable, maybe a missing finger. he's just missing his wristbands lol.

Lol, really? That one screamed at me. But I have done that before...looking for a subtle mistake, but it ends up really obvious.

Briefly, there's this black void between Gohan's arm and his tail.

At least they've finally got Kuririn's clothes right. In the first Kai ending (and opening) he's wearing the weighed boots he starts wearing at the Artificial Humans arc, but not the weighted vest. Or vice-versa, I can't remember. Anyway, it's incorrect. He should either have both on or neither.
(Sorry if this has been said. 30 pages is a lot to get through.)

some of these like goku being normal with the spirit bomb might not be errors. remember he was getting weaker.
