Amusing inconsistencies in the anime

[Michsi]

It was thought to be that only 2 people can be in the time chamber/room of spirit and time. Based on someone's statement in the Cell saga. Then that was contradicted in the Buu saga when 4 people Goten, Trunks, Buu, and Piccolo were in it.

I'm surprised no one's commented on this yet. It's not that the room can only hold two people period; it's that it's only equipped with living quarters/supplies for two people. So while any number of people could go hang out in the room for a while, only two would be able to comfortably live there.

They explained this? I though it was another mystical rule like the exit dissapearing after 1 year.

In Viz, Goku tells Vegeta that the Room of Spirit and Time's only set up for two people, so Vegeta would have to go in with Trunks, since they're short on time. I don't know whether it's different in the original, but perhaps it wasn't explained very well, like the whole 2/3 wishes debacle with Dende's Shenlong, which is why people assumed that there was an absolute rule that only two people could go in at a time.

And the exit only disappears if you're in the room for over 48 hours.

Tien gets forgotten after he is healed in the Buu Saga, really, what was the point of using him if he was gonna be forgotten later on?

Tenshinhan gets forgotten after he is healed in the Buu Saga, really, what was the point of using him if he was gonna be forgotten later on?

Lol yea that always bothered me too. I honestly feel that was like an FU from Toriyama to the fans who complained about the lack of the original human fighters in the latter arcs. It's basically like you wanted him back but look how he weak is compared to Buu just confirming their lack of usefulness to the plot. Poor Tien though haha.

Well, he and Chaozu are in that one panel at the end where it shows all the heroes when Goku and the others reunite with their friends and families at God's Palace.

But it's not as if he was particularly useful in the first place. He just pops in to save Mr. Satan and Dende from Boo's blast, then just gapes in horror as he admits how useless he is against Boo's overwhelming power.

Just found error in Movie 10. When Goten cries and Videl gives him the dumpling, Trunks atually grabs it, or Goten in Trunks' jacket
Because Goten's sleeves are blue and Trunks have a green jacket. You can also see the actual details of Trunks' sleeve, so it's not just Goten's sleeve painted green.

A few weeks back I saw the danish dub of DBZ episode 96.
In it Muten Roshi talks about Freeza and how he can transform, but how the hell does Roshi knows that? Is it like that in the original as well?

[DBZGTKOSDH]

There's the anime not including Zarbon's line about Freeza being able to transform as well, which later becomes the sole reason why Vegeta knew Freeza could transform and he even says in the anime that Zarbon told him, though he actually didn't.

Dub error? Because I recently watched that episode (I'm currently watching the whole series) and I clearly remember Zarbon saying that Freeza can also transform.

Must also be a dub error. Roshi never said that.

Must be an error in whatever you watched, then, since the anime cut the entire manga scene where he said this. The scene where Vegeta tells Freeza Zarbon told him he can transform was left in, though, causing a bit of a disconnect for anime-only viewers who never saw Zarbon say this.

When Vegeta and Nappa's spaceships come in to land on Earth, they fly past the Moon.
