I've also found out on our infamous Dragon Ball wikia a claim that this card supposedly mentions Gohan turning Super Saiyan "on top" of his Ultimate form, thus "getting stronger". Is it actually said in the text or is it one of their usual embellishments?

This isn't really in line with the other posts, but something has been bugging me lately. "セルゲーム" is often translated as "The Cell Games." But I've seen other sources translate it as "The Cell Game," or simply "Cell Game." Is there a real difference when it comes to translating this that other sources just aren't getting? Wouldn't it make more sense that it would be the "Cell Game" since it only entails one major event (the battle with Cell)?

James Teal (Animerica 1996) wrote:When you think about it, there are a number of similarities between the Chinese-inspired Son Goku and that most American of superhero icons, Superman. Both are aliens sent to Earth shortly after birth to escape the destruction of their homeworlds; both possess super-strength, flight, super-speed, heightened senses and the ability to cast energy blasts. But the crucial difference between them lies not only in how they view the world, but in how the world views them.
Superman is, and always has been, a symbol for truth, justice, and upstanding moral fortitude–a role model and leader as much as a fighter. The more down-to-earth Goku has no illusions about being responsible for maintaining social order, or for setting some kind of moral example for the entire world. Goku is simply a martial artist who’s devoted his life toward perfecting his fighting skills and other abilities. Though never shy about risking his life to save either one person or the entire world, he just doesn’t believe that the balance of the world rests in any way on his shoulders, and he has no need to shape any part of it in his image. Goku is an idealist, and believes that there is some good in everyone, but he is unconcerned with the big picture of the world…unless it has to do with some kind of fight. Politics, society, law and order don’t have much bearing on his life, but he’s a man who knows right from wrong.

Could someone translate me Katsuyoshi Nakatsuru's Visial Guide from the GT Box?

Complete lies. That's an IC-Carddass card, all the text on them just explains the card's effect.
These cards have official English translations, so I'll just copypaste what it says:
[Attack Skill] Draw one card when attacking a Leader, and this card gets +3,000 Power for the duration of the battle.[Continuous Effect] If your opponent’s Life is 4 or above, this card gets +1 Strike.
Yeah.

Would appreciate knowing what this quick little blurb says.
Thanks!

Yes, there's a difference. The Japanese is セルゲーム Seru Geemu which is Cell Game. Cell Games would be have the "zu" kana unless Geemu is for both. However, there is only one event, which is the tournament so there aren't multiple games.

HEAD-CHA-LA Doujinshi Translation.
Anybody willing to translate the head cha la books for me? I have about 4 of the books currently cleaned and ready to be translated into english.
The books are all in hand written Japanese and are gag based with a small amount of shonen-ai on the side. There's 20 books with between 20-80 pages each. My cleans also make the text easier to read. If anybody wants to translate, PM me and I'll send you a link.
FYI I'm more than happy to typeset, in fact I'd prefer it. Here's some scans so you know what you're looking at.

Don't get your hopes up.
This thread is practically dead.
Maybe try on the DBZ subreddit?

We've repeatedly asked that people provide some bit of context or explanation for what they're looking for, rather than just dropping an image or series of links and asking for free translation work.
Why do you want it? What about it interests you? What are you looking to learn more about? Make your enthusiasm and yearn for knowledge infectious to the point that someone can't help but want to take a look.
99% of the time it's just someone looking to prove a point in an online argument about some character's strength relative to someone else. That's really not something a lot of the translators and fluent speakers have much interest in, it's pretty transparent, and it becomes exhausting.
I know that's not a particularly helpful response right back at the very people looking for help themselves, but a little honesty goes a long way.

[spoiler]Chapter: 487 (DBZ 293), P13.4-5
Context: after evil Boo shows up and demands to fight Gotenks
Piccolo: “Go hit Trunks and Goten to wake them up, and take them into the Room of Spirit and Time…! Even in just 1 hour, they’ll be able to do 15 days worth of training.”
Kuririn: “Heh!? If we do it now…”
Piccolo: “Can’t you tell…?! As they are now, even if they perform Fusion they can’t win, no doubt about it…! Tell them that if they don’t want to die while they’re still just little brats, then they should train as much as they can…!”[/spoiler]
Does anyone know what Kuririn is trying to say here? The Viz version says: "Huh?! They're not gonna fight now...?"

Okay, so in context, the reason I'm interested in my recent submission is to know what it might say in relation to whatever role Goten and Trunks' role in Super might be, given that they've had barely any thus far.
