* MoodWhiplash: At one point in the movie, Gohan sings a cheerful song about Piccolo, which is visualized on screen with a SuperDeformed artstyle. That is, until the end where it suddenly shifts to a scene from the show where Piccolo is shielding Gohan from Nappa's blast, sacrificing himself in the process.

* IncrediblyLamePun: In the original, Bulma's reaction to seein [[BrainInAJar Wheelo]] is to shout "Oh no!" because "no" in Japanese means brain. [[LamePunReaction Kochin bluntly tell her it was a bad joke]].

* MorallyAmbiguousDoctorate: Wheelo and Kochin are both doctors, and are both very evil.
* MyBrainIsBig: Although its not explained why, Doctor Wheelo's brain is gigantic. Even without the exosuit, it dwarfs half the cast in sheer size. It’s possibly the result of whatever Wheelo has done to keep his brain alive without his body.

* FishOutOfTemporalWater: Wheelo is, despite having advanced technology, running on information from 50 years ago when he was frozen. As a result, he believes Master Roshi is still the strongest fighter in the world when he’s now a senior citizen and has no idea who Goku is until Bulma tells him.

* BadBoss: Wheelo could not care less about his minions. When Goku beats his three biomechanical warriors, Wheelo is actually happy because it means Goku is as strong as Wheelo desires. Later, when Wheelo finally [[spoiler: detaches from the wall to fight the heroes in his mech armor, he casually causes Kochin to fall down the chasm underneath the control room]] without even a second thought.



* BullyingADragon: Kochin mocks Gohan over him getting upset at the brainwashed Piccolo against Wheelo’s demands he stop. The energy shockwaves that Gohan produces in his subsequent rage shatters the mind control device on Piccolo’s head and sets a chain of events that leads to both villains dying.

* DamselInDistress: Kochin's Bio-Men can't take Master Roshi to Wheelo's fortress by force, so they take Bulma hostage to get him to comply.

* ButtMonkey: Krillin laments the fact that he's the only warrior not to get a solid hit in on Uiro during the closing moments of the fight. This begins a RunningGag that continues in later DBZ movies whenever he, Gohan, and Piccolo triple team an enemy, where the same thing continues to happen to him.

* NonSerialMovie: Goku knows the Kaio-ken, but Piccolo is still alive. For this to fit into the timeline of the series, Goku would have to be back from Namek, despite being unable to transform and without Vegeta in sight. It appears to take place in an AlternateContinuity where Piccolo survived his encounter with Nappa.
