Dragon Test: test your knowledge

[Cold Skin]

This thread will allow you to test your knowledge of Dragon Ball (answers included as spoilers, so it's fast: you just answer in your head and click on the spoiler to see if you were correct).

Mine is pretty easy and only tests your basic knowledge of the franchise, there's no super-expert questions. No specific dates and stuff like that.
You'll probably know most, if not all, the answers, and if not you will learn a stuff or have your memory refreshed.

Feel free to make tests of your own in this thread, which can have the number of questions you want, be centered around any theme you want or have the difficulty level you want (you can create a super-hard test for the most extreme fans if that's what you want).
Just be sure that the required answers are widely accepted facts, and not things subject to debates.

43/50

I got wrong questions #5, #7, #8, #10, #11, #21, and #37, and I never noticed #5 happening, neither realized that it wasn't normal in #37. It was fun!

BTW, the answer in question #28 is wrong. First TB was 21st, last was 28th, not 25th.

[enjyu123]

44/50

You say these are easy then what are the hard ones.

[Dr. Machismo]

Where's the picture of 18 with purple hair?

[TheGmGoken]

49/50

I got number 41 wrong. I thought Goku said "Thank you" and "Farewell" not

Spoiler:

"Thank you" and "goodbye"

[enjyu123]

Isn't that the same thing so you got a perfect score.

[TheGmGoken]

Isn't that the same thing so you got a perfect score.

Nah. 49/50 is good enough. Same meaning but not exact.

[Cold Skin]

BTW, the answer in question #28 is wrong. First TB was 21st, last was 28th, not 25th.

Thanks, it's been fixed, although it makes the question harder than I initially planned since I just forgot about the epilogue tournament!
Initially, I just thought people would know one of the first three and determine all others, remembering we don't see the one that Mister Satan wins, but now they actually have to know that two Tenkaichi Budokai are not seen during the final ten years gap, which I wouldn't have remembered myself!

You guys may take this into account and either take out or add one point to your score depending on if you correctly answered 21 and 28 despite my original, wrong answer being 21 and 25.

44/50

You say these are easy then what are the hard ones.

Well, everyone has more than 40/50, which is a very good score, so I guess it shows it's mostly things you can easily remember as a fan.
You have a very good score yourself.

There are much tougher questions that would be hard to find even for fans. (I basically relied on what I could remember myself, without a need to check things out. If I didn't remember and needed to check it out to be sure, then it meant it was too hard for the difficulty level I wanted: I didn't want to ask people to remember something I couldn't remember myself!).

Tough things would probably be things like "cite the exact day this movie was released in Japan", "cite the exact names of the first 23 chapters", etc... Some fans would probably be able to remember such details, but most of them - like me - are probably not to the level of walking encyclopedia able to say what's on panel 3 of page 71 of volume 13!

So I do think it's quite easy and that there is potential for other tests for which we would already be happy to barely get half the points, and people could even come up with extreme tests in which we get 2/20 or 6/50 scores!
I'm really not a fan of hard difficulty levels, but I hear people love the extreme difficulties nowadays if you look at comments from most video games always stating that they are disappointed because the "super-extreme difficulty mode" is still much too easy for their taste...

Where's the picture of 18 with purple hair?

It's included in the Chogashu (Super Art Collection) along with all other Toriyama designs for Battle of Gods, although I actually find her hair to be grey and not purple.
