* Vageta makes a YourMom joke, Qui responds with "my species reproduces asexually." Funny, but...does that really negate the joke? After all, if Qui's species reproduces asexually, then Qui still must have one parent, and what would you call that one parent if not the mother? Certainly not the father.

* When Goku saw Mr. Popo while in the hospital, he freaked out something feirce. But...he went to Popo's EARLIER when he was heading towards the saiyans. Why didn't he freak out then?

*** Except a couple episodes later, where he says the same Your Mom joke to Vegeta.

* What the hell does Racoone say in the Ginyu introduction scene? I can't understand it no matter how much I listen. All I hear is "And Pops some hay!" Wat.

** Space google. Presumably, previous surveys and researchers visiting Namek have heard about the Dragon Balls but assumed them to be legend or mythology, and left the references buried in reports. Freiza has enough money and underlings to look up if there's any other appearances of the dragon balls, and thus find the erroneously-assumed-to-be-legend report.

** Also, if one Namekkian can create Dragon Balls, it's likely another Namekkian can, too.

If so, even he is convinced.

* How do we know Zarbon is straight? It could be a MyGirlfriendWhoLivesInCanada situation. Or even if he does have a girlfriend, he could, as he said in Episode 14, go both ways.

*** Because he had no choice. He was forced to do so by Frieza. We also don't know old Vegeta is, so he could have only been a child at the time, and he could have been raised to obey Frieza until he noticed something fishy about it. This could also mean that the planet he was seen leaving at the start may have been some other planet than his own.

** Because we thought Zarbon was gay in the original non-abridged series, whereas this is the first time there's been any indication of Dodoria's femininity.

to:

** Because we thought Dodoria was ''explicitly'' a man in the original, meaning its a change and thus a twist, whereas Zarbon was gay ambiguous in the original non-abridged series, whereas this original, and thus if its a new twist (and thus spoilerworthy) is the first time there's been any indication of Dodoria's femininity.debatable.

* Why is it that people consider Dodoria's sex to be a spoiler (one that is very poorly hidden on this wiki) yet Zarbon's sexual orientation is plastered all over the place, unmarked? We thought Zarbon was gay for longer than we thought Dodoria was a man, so why does the first truth to be revealed get spoiler-tagged, but not the second one?

*Why is it that people like Chiatzu, Bulma, and Roshi threaten Krillin and make fun of him for being a weakling when he can kill them in like 3 seconds?
