Zarbon in the anime

Post by Thanos6 » Fri Jun 08, 2007 1:38 pm

Watching the Season 2 boxset last night, I got through the part where Vegeta kills Zarbon. I noticed that he never told Vegeta that like himself, Freeza can transform.

Was this a dub mistake? Or was this left out of the original version, too? I know he said it in the manga...

Should be interesting to see how they have Vegeta know that Freeza can transform, then...

He found it out from "Cui" whom he sent to the next dimension...

No seriously, Vegeta probably found out from the same person that told him Planet Vegeta was destroyed by a meteor.

I suggest checking the subtitles for the Japanese version, I don't know of them ever screwing up a translation, except for the obvious name changes, and I believe a line was missed in the Perfect Cell Boxset

Am I taking you out of context or do you actually mean that?

I mean for the Japanese subtitles on the boxsets

I believe it was just left out of the anime. Vejita makes a point of telling Freeza that Zarbon told him about his transformation(s) later on in the anime also, making it pretty odd.

Oh well, at least we got "Bulma's chaotic day," right? Right?!

Well perhaps Vegeta put two and two together when feeling Freeza's power? To be honest I have no idea. :oops:

Huh. That's one really bizarre choice of "things from the manga to leave out."

I think he mentioned it when they fight the first time.
