I own the orange bricks so I'm watching it subbed.

Surprised Steve Simmons mistranslated that line.

 

[SSJ2]

I know. Where tf does he get 925 from? Viz also randomly gets "rising". But ja, if anyone wants scans let me know.

 

[xmysticgohanx]

It's possible the anime adds 925 as extra dialogue filler

 

[Papasmurf]

cba to watch the scene myself but if I had to take a guess I'd go with mysticgohan's

Yeah, I thought about this possibility as well. Gotta confirm with the anime.

 

[Captain Cadaver]

Skipping through filler is a chore but the soundtrack and voices are on point.

Looking back in retrospect, the Saiyan Arc filler wasn't really that bad from a story perspective. A lot of the filler involving Kuririn and the others at Kami's temple was useful in building up Nappa and Vegeta, as was some of the Gohan filler in helping show his development. It did massively effect pacing, though it makes the conflict in the arc more meaningful when we see the Z-Senshi struggle rather than just going for an instant timeskip.

@SuperSaiyan2 - They added the 925 line in the anime dialogue. I checked it. So it wasn't a mistranslation like I said.

@Captain Cadaver - completely agreed! I really feel the conflict between Vegeta/Nappa vs Z Warriors was better constructed in the anime, and the add of those filler kind made me to think to myself how both powers would clash in.

 

[Let's Go Fearless!]

Why can't Bulma, Krillin and Roshi immediately recognize that Gohan is Goku's son from the beginning?

Spoiler

After 5 years and they didn't expect that Goku will have a son?

 

[Papasmurf]

Goku the guy who didn't know what marriage was at 18?

 

[SSJ2]

Tail should have been a pretty big giveaway lol.

 

[Zippy]

Youre sig is filler so i give you no respect sir

When Vegeta was about to sacrifice himself to kill fat Boo, he asked Piccolo if he could see Kakarrot in the Other World, to which Piccolo said Vegeta'd have his body erased and his soul would be incarnated in a new being upon losing its memories. Doesn't that contradict Enma Daioh stating Raditz went straight to hell? How can you go to hell when you get your body erased and the soul is used for a new being?

 

[Papasmurf]

I always took that to mean that the people who've sinned the most spend a long time in hell before being reincarnated, and Enma reincarnated Boo right away as an exception because of Goku's wishes.

 

[ahill1]

Only the soul spend a long time in hell, right? Or the body too? Goku said they'd allow his soul be attached to his body since he saved Earth, but Enma Daioh said Raditz fought back when he was dead...

 

[phill1123]

Perhaps they have their bodies until judgement is given by Enma?

 

[Evil Vegeta]

That's what I think. Well, Goku was expecting Cell's soul to be right there with him and Kaio after exploding. Goku later said Cell and regular guys get turned into spirits, so I'm not sure.

 

[Void]

It could work. Enma could've brought Vegeta in and decided to preserve his body while sending his soul away. Was it ever specified if he went to hell?

 

[Evil Vegeta]

With the way Emma worded it, he happened to just pull Vegeta to the side and gave him a body right from the get go. I imagine he saw him in line, realized he was one of the guys from Earth that fought Boo, and decided to give him a chance at redeeming himself.

 

[Papasmurf]

Maybe Vegeta won't go to hell the next time he dies then
