What episode of DB/Z/GT had just aired when you were born?

Post by PhoenixEX » Mon Dec 24, 2012 11:49 am

Basically what the title asks, what episode of Dragon Ball, Z, or GT were you born in?
Obviously this would have to be done with the original Japanese broadcast.
I was born 08/27/1993 and the episode that had just aired was
198. "Final Round of Flame!! Goku or Paikuhan!?" which had aired on the 25th.
I guess I was born right when Goku and Pikkon were about to fight which is 4 episodes into the Great Saiyaman and World Tournament Sagas (according to Wikipedia) haha how about you?

Five days after Vegeta sacrificed himself and went kablooey. I feel kinda lucky to have my birth coincide with such a momentous occasion. :')

Fun question!
(By the way, for those who want to look it up quickly, you can find the air dates for DB episodes here, for DBZ episodes here, and for GT episodes here).

Lemme see......
October 3rd, 1987, so...I guess that means "Dragon Ball" Episode 81, which aired just a few days before on September 30th.
A "rather haggard" translation of a line from Future Gohan in DBZ, provided to FUNimation by Toei:
"To think of fighting that is this fun...so, it was pleasant fight, as many as, therefore is a feeling which is good the fight where."

Ehhh...I can't be arsed to do the work. I was born on November 17th, 1995, so someone can figure out what manga chapter or episode debuted on that day, or nearest to that day, if you want.

Dragon Ball Z episode #99 - "Shen Long, Run Yourself Through Space!! The Time of Namek's Destruction Draws Near." on July 17th 1991
For obvious reasons I wish it had been episode 95! :P

Just two days prior, episode 283 of Dragon Ball Z aired, Vegeta’s Secret Plan!! Porunga and the Two Wishes. Better than what I got lol.

Also, for anyone using Wikipedia, why not just use this little ol' site called Kanzenshuu and use they're episode guide? :wink:

Dragon Ball Z Episode 40: "Honest to Goodness? There Lies Namek, Planet of Hope" aired the day after I was born. :)
