Pretty much this.
For what it's worth, Steve Simmons went with "
you dumbass" in Kai, changing it from "
you stupid bastard" in Z.
"Dumbass" is a great translation in my opinion; it's not overly vulgar, and carries the exact same weight.
This isn't a gritty seinen manga. Strong profanity in a shōnen scanlation is usually a good sign that the translation is shoddy at best.

That's when the advanced screening of Revival of F will be. After that, the online summaries should start circulating.
Also, someone at Kanzenshuu will likely see it and summarize it.

To those talking about the image's origins, I cropped the source out for a reason. You shouldn't actively name and talk about the sites in question.

Is this fake? I mean... Goku never curses and stuff
Goku has been cursing ever since he was a kid. There is one instance where he realizes Roshi is taking a "shit" after Krillin tells him he is taking a "dump". Krillin even comments on how vulgar Goku is after he says that.

oh, now that make sense, I first thought she was making the countdown for the official premiere of the movie, but that would be the number the Bulma Blog is counting...
Thanks for clarifying that

Sleeping until the tournament is over.

To be fair. Goku did say Piccolo Damaio was "Slug shit" after Piccolo said "You ain't shit boy" in the anime

Anytime. I ran into that a while back, and I thought "what? The premier is nearly 3 weeks after that." Until he clarified it; unt then, I hadn't really thought of the advanced screening.
I don't want to read the in depth summaries or any major spoilers until I watch the movie, but the intro will be fine to spil for me.

I don't know if the exact wording is the same in Japanese (I think in the dub Goku goes 'Oh, you mean he's taking a poop?'), but either way, he's being vulgar in an entirely different way. It's not that he's using bad words, it's that he's talking about something somewhat inappropriate to talk about in mixed company.

That was done by Feanor, who gets his translations from other people.
Gyt is correct. That said, we're getting off-topic.

That Each of Frieza's army is stronger than Gohan is more terrible.
That proves someone helps Frieza

I don't think they want you quoting the link, either. Best to just report it.

Read the manga special, good read but I have two questions.
1. How did the pieces of Mecha Frieza that were put into the chamber turn into first form Frieza?
2. Why would they do a manga chapter like this that gives so much of the story away? Shouldn't they have saved all this for the film itself?

I think Freeza body gets relaxed and goes back to first form.

I like. Has been explained well.
[PORNOGRAHPIC IMAGE REMOVED BY MODERATOR. USER BANNED.] Piccolo gets stronger than Nail and nobody explains. Vegeta was scared of Ginyu and after he takes a get his power level is 250,000.
