It's kind of weird to hear Kuririn's voice sound like Luffy's voice from One Piece in the beginning shouting Goku! lol.

Goku's training at Kamio should be fun to watch as well :D
Can't wait for the actual fight though.

Another enjoyable episode of Kai. I can't believe Vegeta and Nappa's conversation about Gohan was omitted though, that was actually manga material and not filler. :\

If I had anything to do with the production of DBK I would definatly keep rushing it until Nappa and Vegeta land. That is where DBZ really started to shine IMO.

goku's on the longest trip ever, hope he gets frequent flyer miles or something. and gohan's inner powers pwn... well, everything. next episode is very interesting
the only way to stop a gamer from playing is either: beat them, or wait until they get bored (though 2% percent suffer seizures

Heh, an enjoyable episode.

Snake Road is a fun arc. :D

They're really getting through this, but then again, they're just cutting things, not adding.

One day, I hope they redraw everything to look like the OP and ED, that'd be frickin' awesome to sit down and watch...

Lol I hate the long titles hahahaha... Bah just the old good DB.... Likrd the episode... It had some of the old styled humor of the first DB days :P Liked that... and Kami-sama being all polite with Yama hahahaha.... So Gohan's training begins... that should be fun to watch... Poor Kuririn I wouldn't like to be in his shoes... He'll be killed :o hahaha Good epi

They are pacing it very well, I remember the long snake arc bit, that was dragged out so much but hopefully this time it isn't.
Good episode though, bit of funny bits and the next episode looks promising. Oh what the hell the whole series looks promising!

I hope the snake way arc dosen't last too long. when I was reading the manga Goku seemed to reach the end alot faster than he did in the DBZ anime, not to mention cutting stuff like Goku falling into hell, and Princess Snake out.

Pretty great pacing, as I've seen the original it's quite nice to see this story with a more swift pacing of so it feels.

something is pretty strange with the pace, one moment things are rushed. second later it's being slow, but before i had time to go with it the episode had finished xD

the death jokes always had killed me. and gohan voice/behaviour making me wet from laugh.

Gohan will begin his training with Piccolo. Gohan has a lot of potential, so now all that needs to be done is for him to properly harness it.

Krillin's the one that has to tell the bad news to Chi-Chi lol. Good luck with that

It's been a long time since I watched the original Dragon Ball, but on top of this being one of the tightest, most satisfyingly structured arcs ever, the first scene that made me want to write a post was Piccolo's kidnapping and training of Gohan.


Gohan, raised with a relatively normal childhood under ChiChi is a world of difference from the young spawn of Demon King Piccolo we once knew.  When Piccolo was born he was alone in the world, and he took over his father's ambition.  Violence and domination is all he has known, and unlike Goku where marital arts has been a symbol of family, brotherhood, passion; for Piccolo, violence has only ever been a means to his end.  I think that's why seeing a kid who is the polar opposite of his own childhood self in all but strength is very fascinating. They bounce off each other in very fun ways.
