DBZ references in SGT Frog/Keroro Gunso

I checked out a couple of volumes from the libary, and I noticed that there's a couple of pages that have references to DBZ. I wasn't sure wha forum to show this off in, but I scanned the pages to show them off. All of these read right to left, so read the right page before the left one, if necessary.

Volume 4:

The black frog, Tamama has a scouter (Warning: VERY HUGE scan. About 750k)

Volume 5:

Keroro goes "Super Saiyajin" (About 250k)

Just a small reference, but Tamama (Black frog) has a DBZ thought again. (About 270k)

Awesome! I only own one Keroro Gunsou manga, I had no clue they were spoofing DBZ too! Nice find!

Might load slow because of the size. Sorry about that.

I love Keroro Gunso! I'll have to go pick up Volume 5 now!

The scouter thing cracks me up...I also loved the Eva parody in Volume 4.

Kakarot syndrome, eh? Silly silly Tokyopop...It should be Kakarotto Syndrome.

"Kakarot Syndrome".

Sounds like an Emo band

They maybe the main act but before them are the Red Ribbon Army and Daimao's Instruments.

Viz and even Steve Simmons translate it to Kakarot as well. ;P

People think "Kakarrot" is wrong?

Isn't it? Kakarotto doesn't and will never translate to Kakarot in English. So I'm still baffled at the change...

It also makes Vegetto make no sense if you go by American naming system.

Vegeta + Kakarotto = Vegetto

US:

Vegeta + Kakarot = Vegetto as FUNi leaves it, but if you're a stickler for names...Vegeot!

EDIT: Thanks to Caster Troy's sig! http://www.animecauldron.com/dbzuncenso ... rdock.html

The pun is on 'carot', and the 'o' is just how the Japanese say things - they cannot say 'Kakarrot' they put an 'o' on the end. Arguing that the 'true' name is 'Kakarroto' instead of 'Kakarrot' is like arguing 'Tarrus' over 'Telluse'.

We refer to Vegetto as 'Vegetto' because 'Veget' sounds retarded.

I feel extremly stupid. Please smack me with a bag of bacon.

Castor's sig is meant to be ironic.

To think that someone is still preaching that kind of thing in this day and age, and all that.
