Don't worry, Cell can't harm you. The series is still cool.

"Be more serious about school and get good grades so you can actually make it out to Texas to maybe eventually land a role in the series if more ever comes out. Oh! And acting lessons. Definitely need those too."

Hmm...other than that dream that I've since given up on though...oh!

"Don't hate on the Japanese version just because of the way a lot of the sub fans have treated you. They're coming from a wounded area too."

(That thing about holding off on the Season Sets to buy the Dragon Boxes instead too.)

Hmmm.......this is an interesting question.....

Probably to not search for the sex scene with Bulma and Vegeta that my friend assured me existed. Turns out it doesn't. Who knew.

By that Dragon Box 2 on eBay for $60. No, you won't find a better deal anywhere else.

Stop watching the god awful funimation dub and stick with sub!
It is clear that sometime in Mark Satan's life, he acquired the dragon balls and called upon shenlong to grant him immortality.

Haha that is true, but it annoys me that I was missing out on the sub version for so many years.

Hey, think of it as a 'rediscovery', that has allowed you to enjoy Dragonball in two completely different ways :)

Hey, it might (and probably will eventually) still happen!

And, Happy Birthday :)

The time will come, when you will go to Kageyama concert and you will hear Cha-La Head-Cha-La, We are Angels and We Gotta Power at live :wink:
A world without Dragon Ball is just boring.

I would tell myself to be patient and NOT read plot details out of magazines. To just enjoy the story as it goes.
