Watched Yo! Son Goku and His Friends Return!


I was hesitant of watching this since I was waiting for an English dub. However since I'm learning Japanese (just used to the English voices) I decided to watch it anyway since it will help me learn and see if I could pick up any words. 



Love the new animation, looks better than the remastering of old 90's footage.  



The story is set a few years after Kid Buu dies. Vegeta's long lost brother Tarble arrives to Earth to warn the Z Warriors of two pricks from a far-away galaxy. I really wished whoever wrote this didn't make so many non-sensical plot issues. I know there's always some in every Dragon Ball movie, but this came long after everything else and is set after the last saga yet before the end scene of the series with Uub. 


Noteworthy is that there's a lot more Japanese customs and quirks in this movie than any other. Also Tarble's wife is this weird alien chick. 


Though there is plenty of classic Dragon Ball humor. Will that perv Master Roshi ever learn?


I thought the fight scenes were decent enough. Just wished it wasn't mostly Goten and Trunks fighting. I did like Goku's trick on Vegeta though. 


It's a decent extra for any Dragon Ball Z fan. I hope Americans get a dub after Dragon Ball Z Kai is over with.

Things I Hate: Dragon Ball Z: Ultimate Battle 22


I'm glad my brother got suckered into buying this turd of a game. This was one of the first Dragon Ball Z  games in America, ironically back then we were starving for a video game with Goku and friends.


Instead of creating a new game, they brought a game from 1995 Japan so the kids from 2003 America could enjoy it. And by enjoy it, I mean hate the fuck out of it. 


The graphics are terrible, and the game-play is nothing more than senseless punches, kicks, and laser blasts. No matter how many Dragon Ball games they make, I will always know that it can always get worse.

My Top Ten Worst Dragon Ball Characters #1: Guldo


This guy was suppose to be the member of the big bad Ginyu force. Instead he's an annoying little green turd. 


I do like his power to stop time though. 


However for someone with such an ability, he sure sucks at using it. 


He never even saw his death coming. 


He even survives a beheading, fuck him. Boom!

My Top Ten Worst Dragon Ball Characters #2: Babidi


Nothing more than a scared little loser wizard guy. 


He was annoying before Buu was released. 


And I wish Piccolo's attempt on his life would be fatal. 


But Buu gave him the greatest death in Dragon Ball Z. 

My Top Ten Worst Dragon Ball Characters #3: King Cold


I never liked the fact that someone "stronger" than Freiza existed after the Namek saga. It was a whole lot of bullshit. 


King Cold is more a doofus, he didn't show much emotion when his son died. 


Then tries to make an uneasy truce with Trunks. 


One of the best deaths in Dragon Ball Z.

My Top Ten Worst Dragon Ball Characters #4: Supreme Kai


He came out pretty cool, as we initially thought he'd be a villain or something. He made Piccolo pee his pants in fear. 


Then he turns all pussy later. 


Nothing more than scared to death. 


I do like the whole Z sword shit. 


But his fusion also sucked balls. Looked retarded.

My Top Ten Worst Dragon Ball Characters #5: Cui


I almost forgot this asshat existed until I later re-watched the series again.


"Hey Vegeta, blah blah Freiza, blah blah You Suck"


He tried to trick Vegeta into a trap.



So he could attack him off-guard. 


Well sometimes things are easier said than done. 


And nothing of value was lost.

My Top Ten Worst Dragon Ball Characters #7: Android 19


I liked how he could absorb Ki blasts but that was about it. 


One of the few villains to actually beat Goku in a battle. Only this time, it was because of bullshit. 


But hey Vegeta showed this tub of lard who's boss. 


I loved seeing this handless fat-ass run in panic as Vegeta destroyed him. 

Fact of the Day: Sun Wukong


While Dragon Ball Z was more Superman meets Japan, the original Dragon Ball was based off of the Chinese epic novel Journey to the West. Goku is based off the character Sun Wukong, or as the Japanese pronounced it Son Goku.

My Top Ten Worst Dragon Ball Characters #9: Cell Juniors


Even though Cell farted this fuckers out, I couldn't stand them. 


The little monsters served no purpose but to pick on Gohan's feelings. 


They were apparently as strong as their daddy. They could easily hurt Super Saiyans. 


I was glad to see Gohan to destroy them.

My Top Ten Worst Dragon Ball Characters #10: Dr. Gero


Despite being a dickhead doctor guy, he did invent some killer shit. 


He even made himself into a robot. 


He seemed like hot shit when he stuck his hand through Yamcha. 


But after some asskicking by Vegeta and Piccolo got the motherfucker all scared. He had to pick on Krillin to buy some time. 


I was happy to see his head fly off. 

My Top Ten Dragon Ball Characters #1: Goku


I love little Goku. He was such a weird kid. Touching everyone in their junk, taking off girl's panties, sounds like Master Roshi's dream. 


He could also fight like hell. Only lost to Yamcha the first time because he was hungry. 


He did a Kamehameha on his first try. 


Loved the Nimbus cloud. 


The Jackie Chun fight was also pretty sweet. 


So was the battle against the Red Ribbon Army. 


Sad to see Goku lose for a shitty reason to Tien. 


3 eyes could even beat Piccolo's kid, but Goku tore through the big man himself. 


Loved the championship fight between Piccolo Jr. and Goku.


Also funny to see Chi-Chi grow up and then want to marry Goku as a promise during childhood. 


Heartbreaking to see him give up his life to defeat Raditz. 


But hey, somethings are worth it. 


Came in badass during the Saiyans saga. 


Same thing with the Ginyu Force. Loved him defeating Recoome with one attack, or puching the red guy in the face and made him cry.  


Fuck Captain Ginyu, stole Goku's body and everything. Ribbit. 


But hey whatever Super Saiyan!


This is the part where Super Saiyan stopped being cool. 


Well not as cool as it used to be. 


I hated the Cell fight though. Qutting bitch. 


But loved seeing him return from the dead for 1 day. 


Super Saiyan 3 was pretty neat. 


And Super Vegito rocked. 

The Kid Buu fight was okay.





Good spirit bomb though.
