I can't really remember myself believing any of these rumors, as I was a rational and quite clever kid growing up, but I believed Nappa was Vegeta's uncle. Which made sense to me because he was always around Vegeta as a kid, and someone has to watch him. :P

Actually right on April Fools, i was going over Dragon Ball wiki, and opened the Battle of Gods page. I started reading it, and right in the beginning of the text there was a little sentence saying: "It is confirmed that Goku will be voiced by the actor Nicholas Cage."

After that moment my jaw dropped and i started to spit out nonsense words and sounds. I did that for a few minutes, then realized that it was April Fools.
I started slapping myself while laughing hysterically.

A nice experience, really. :D

That almost made me choke on my buttered crumpet! (I'm English, our breakfast foods have weird names.)

I'm almost tempted to mock this up... But the amount of work I've got to do today is ridiculous.

I guess we all were one fooled by AF and hoshi gave false hope, playability of bulma in budokai 3 , unlockable super saiyan 5 and 6 were unlockable in Infinite world and we were fooled in believing DragonBall Z kai was a new series
Someone hit me up when Krillin, Tien, Yamcha, Chiaotzu :lolno:, Goten, Buu, and Gohan :!: :!: :!: become relevant again :?

Haha, nope. I don't think I was ever fooled by any of this, in fact I don't think I've even heard of a couple of these rumours (Super Saiyan 5 & 6 in Infinite World? Really? Things like that were being passed around in 2008?).

Bulma being playable in Budokai 3 is kinda true, kinda not. I find the whole "Budokai 3 being incomplete" thing to be fascinating.

Most people on my country believed on that rumour from Dragon Ball coming back if BoG was a success and have more than 200 episodes. I kinda feel embarassed.
It even got to the point where that rumour came in the news.

Example: http://www.revista21.net/2013/04/dragon ... -gods.html

Its incredible how the hype can blind some people :|
A world without Dragon Ball is just boring.
