Actually, you can see what's going on, but two of them really don't make sense unless you can translate them. Well, they're amusing to look at, anyway.

That's what I was thinking basically..that I was missing something unless I could read it.

The only one you wouldn't get without translations is the third one. It's when Gohan tells of Goku being a Super Saiyan.

All I can say about the first one...PWNED!


The other two were okay; they didn't make me laugh, but I got it.

The third one is Gohan saying Lunch is a Super Saiyajin.


I didn't even translate it. 8)

After Vegeta and Nappa land, Vegeta says 'Kusso Tare'.

In other words, 'Damn it'.

In the Lanchi one I thinks Gohan asks Piccolo if Lanchi beat Freeza or something, and Vegeta says something at the end which I forgot the Hiragana for.

I think Vegeta says "Nandato?!" - "WHAT?!"

And these seem to be edited pages from the manga, so the text is basically the same.
It's party time, Ginyu style!

Here's my own personal translation of the third one (don't forget, these read from right to left):

Gohan:"You're wrong, Piccolo-san. Lunch-san will definitely win against Freeza!"
Piccolo: "What?"
Gohan: "I saw it myself. Lunch-san finally became... A SUPER SAIYAN!!!"
Vegeta: "S-say WHAT......!!?"

Oh, and here's basically what being said in the Yamucha one:

(Forget all the moaning and groaning...)
Oolong: "It's t... twisted in a weird way over there..." [I know, my English here sucks, but this is a line from when Tenshinhan breaks Yamucha's leg, and the original line is "Ashi ga he... hen na katachi ni magatte 'ru zo..." but now "Ashi"'s been changed to "Asoko", which means "over there". Another difficult rendering in English. *sigh*...]
Then Kuririn says:
"......He's dead........."

Personally, that one is just too funny.

And "kusottare" (from Vegeta and Nappa's landing) can be construed as either "Damn it" or "Damn him".

The Veggie and Nappa one's my favorite. :mrgreen:
Their spaceships burn up in the atmosphere.

Ah, the Veggie costume that they sold around here a few halloweens back.
Everything looks ok on it, except the hair XD
