I'm surprised Kai kept that scene in then. It confused the hell out of me the first time I watched it when i was a kid because I actually thought Freeza killed Goku there. tongue

Guess it added drama & was a good moment for Gohan there.

Plus they couldn't just take it out just because Gohan shouldn't be there. They had to show Goku getting back into the fight.

That's right, boys. Mondo cool.

I bet Vegeta had a ton of fun digging himself out of his own grave.

Actually Goku's right staying on the planet. Frieza could breath in space so Goku needed to kill him right then & there. Especially after seeing Resurrection F Frieza could gain a massive power boost after this.

I'm aware, slim, but Goku's still unnecessarily miffed about King Kai showing concern for his life.

That Vegeta scene was also filler, but it's just too cool to leave out.

[up]Toriyama recently stated that he intended for Goku to be a little more selfish than the anime ended up making him seem. This battle is one of the examples of Goku's true nature showing through the cracks.

Silly Freiza shoulda learned how to speak Namekian.

Well X I agree Goku's a bit of a jerk to King Kai there.

Goku's rationale for not wanting Krillin to kill Vegeta also falls in that.

Wasn't the original estimate something like 30 minutes until Namek explodes after Frieza fired the Death Ball? So, apparently, some 8-10 episodes = 28 minutes in the DBZ verse (currently, that is).

Yeah, I'm also aware of the Goku personality shift and whatnot. It doesn't help that Goku isn't just naturally vengeful because of Krillin's death, but he isn't (initially) pure of heart like he normally is while a Super Saiyan.

[down][down] And just wait until we get to the Cell Saga.

[up][up]Exactly. Goku cares about the earth, but fighting tough people has always been his overriding motivation.

That shield is made of quality plastic if it could fend off a nuke.

Wow that flashback. I think that's why some fans think of The Jeagers as grey.
