No there wasn't. I don't even think there was a flashback.

Nope there was no flashback. The closest thing was Bulma thinking about her times with Yamcha and a couple of images of the two together flashing by.
Yamcha: Do you remember the spell to release him - do you know all the words?
Bulma: Of course! I'm not gonna pull a Frieza and screw it up!
Master Roshi: Bulma, I think Frieza failed because he wore too many clothes!

Even they aren't stupid enough to put an ad in their ad.

They may make dumb decisions, but they definitely aren't dumb when it comes to advertising/marketing.

Well first off I hope this delay meant an extra disc was added. Also this now means when this is fully released, all 7 boxes that means that a DBZ release in the US had Japanese music only and no dub music was released so that's pretty sweet. I hope they do that with a GT Dragon Box if they get those rights.

I mean, you're pretty open about looking at cartoon porn. Why would you do that? It's fiction. The proportions of these women are not possible to reach in reality.

FUNimation.com's website advertisement of Movie 5/6 Double Feature on HD DVD might have something to say about that >.>

So they are actually advertising this now, huh? In my copy of EVANGELION 1.0 You Are (Not) Alone in the FUNi releases, the DBox wasn't even listed.

I've seen advertisements like that for the DBox around plenty of times. Nothing on TV, though. (Probably never will, to be honest)

On the topic of advertising, I've seen a buncha adverts for the new Wii game in American comic books in the past few weeks. It's always interesting to see where they're targeting fans.

I fixed the ad:

Yamcha: Do you remember the spell to release him - do you know all the words?
Bulma: Of course! I'm not gonna pull a Frieza and screw it up!
Master Roshi: Bulma, I think Frieza failed because he wore too many clothes!

It just seemed like a clever jab at people complaining about something so minor on a single advertisement. Maybe you didn't mean it to look like that but I found it funny.

That's partially why I did it. I was originally going to say "You all happy now?" but then forgot to put it there.

From what I've seen, we were all jokingly complaining about something so minor.

Why are people freaking so bad over oone tiny part of a one picture ad?
