@ Rojixus: Ugh, let's get this over with already...

@ shigmiya: Yeah, that's what I was led to believe as well, but as we also said two weeks ago, power levels are an extremely nebulous thing in DBZ.

@ mythbuster: Well, there was a Jaco manga (which detailed how he met Bulma and her family pre-Dragon Ball, among other events), but I'm guessing that's not what you had in mind.

Tonight on Dragon Ball Z: The Kais don't know squat about who the most powerful beings in the galaxy really are.

It's funny how 18 just flies away from Hercule. grin

[up][up] Exactly, I was wondering when they were planning to adapt that manga into an anime.

@ mythbuster: Your guess is as good as mine.

@ Rojixus: Also a reminder that the Grand Kai was basically a hippie and the other quadrant Kais had their own issues. Basically, the Old Kai really is the only one who knows what's up.

When does he find out that Videl already knows he's a fake?

#38009: Jun 3rd 2017 at 9:15:53 PM

[up] mythbuster: I don't think it ever happens. I mean, he's still her dad and a legitimate street-level martial artist, so Videl probably respects him enough to not let it slip that she knows he's a fraud. I figure it's more implicit than anything, given how her family and the Son family regard one another during Super.

Oh, we're off to see the wizard!

At least were finished with the tournament now.

We can focus solely on the plot now.

Why did they basically tell us everything that's going to happen on Titan tonight? }:(

In some cases I read that Majin was translated as Dijin so Buu is possibly some kind of Genie creature.

I really love that shot of Gohan looking down a Super Saiyan.

@ Beary: Unfortunately, the last few episode previews have been the opposite of "subtle" with how they handle AoT's twists. :|

@ slim: The manga chapter in which Majin Buu is released is actually called "The Djinn Awakens?!", so I'm sure the djinn/jinn/genie parallels are deliberate.

[up], [down] It's a shame his showing in this fight doesn't back up the cool factor of that moment.

Yes, but apparently Dabura isn't so easily fooled.

"Full power"? Did Gohan already go SSJ 2? I can never tell.

Dabura is pretty cool really, a surprisingly diverse power set. Its not just Ki-blasts & shit.

Also damn Gohan is jacked, its a fucking tragedy he loses all that muscle soon after this arc.

@ Rojixus: Yeah, but it worked because Frieza couldn't sense energy. That and Goku was a bit more clever in how he fired he shots one by one, and then blitzed an unsuspecting Frieza from the water.

@ shigmiya: No, he hasn't. There's no lightning in the aura.

@ slim: I don't really see it as a tragedy since I understand the design change, but still, realistically speaking, he shouldn't have atrophied so much in that time especially given that the same thing didn't happen during the seven-year Time Skip in Z.

It should also be noted that, you know Gohan's hairstyle in Resurrection F? That's actually similar to Toriyama's own hairstyle in real life.

Ha its hilarious seeing that commercial of Super where Gohan is a literal twig-boy immediately right after showing off the physique off a body-builder against Dabura. [lol]

[up] Huh I did not know that.
