The one showing at my regular theater sold out. Within a day of the TFS review of the movie, so I like to imagine that had something to do with it.

Boo being a dick and the Pilaf gang antics were indeed trash. While I could have cared less for the bingo scene, the removal of drunk gohan was a very sad thing.

If Super 17 (16 Absorbed) blew TFS's minds, then DBH God Mission 4 will make their minds implode.

Lots of unexpected stuff!

I don't get it, who's Tarble? Is he like tiny Vegeta?

Was he in a movie I missed? Also he doesn't sound like a food.

[up]Vegeta's younger brother. Weak by average saiyan standards and incredibly weak by elite standards. I think he was disowned or something. Also he's cannon.

Edit: Also his name is based of the other half of the word "vegetable" like how Vegeta's comes from the first half.

He (Tarble) appears in the Yo! Son Goku and His Friends Return!! OVA from back in 2008.

I didn't see that one. Now I want to. Tarble looks kinda cute.

I don't suppose they ever dubbed it did they?

Ya know, DBH is technically the first game where the Nameless Namekian is playable, he's just referred to as Kami. (The actual Kami can be used through the Good/Evil Split transformation, which removes the evil King Piccolo side)

Actually, I'm near positive they did dub it.

Was I mistaken?

[up][up]You might be confused by the fact a english fandub exists on youtube.

Really? I had no idea.

I'm really surprised they didn't dub it. I mean, Tarble isn't super important, but his appearance is mentioned in Battle Of Gods, so I thought they'd have dubbed his story already as well. It was out in 2008! That's seven years ago! What were they doing all this time!?

[up][up]Hmm, yeah now that I think about it that is really weird. They could've bundled it with the Battle of the Gods DVD or Blu ray or something.

[up][up][up] Rights are a bitch, you know. Funimation don't automatically get dubbing rights on what Toei put out, and some of the staff have made it clear they wanted to dub the special.

[up]Well then it's weird that Toei didn't give them dubbing rights to it to be honest.

Well, we all know Rights issues can be bullshit, so this ain't a shock.

Even though the special hasn't been dubbed, we do know that Tarble's english VA is the same as Jaco's.

...Goku actually asked a good question.

Does Gohan just not like Krillin?

EDIT: Also, Freeza didn't threaten Gohan in the abridged version.

You'd think so after those 6 long days of hangin' out on planet namek, he's like Gohan's second uncle.

Rules of the Internet 45. Rule 45 is a lie. Check out my art if you notice.

...I mean, Gohan's other uncle kidnapped him and locked him in a space pod.
