I was...seriously, though. It was a pretty good episode and an important one, too.

Man, that emperor sure is a douche.

I can't believe they didn't censor out Bulma flipping the middle finger. I never knew Dragonball was so full of sexual references. Did they just not care as much back then?

Giant monkey!!! I loved Bulma giving Pilaf the middle finger. I would've done the same thing.

I wonder if the middle finger is censored in the english version(I don't really care, cause I don't watch eng dubs anyway, but still i enjoyed something done by Bulma for a first time). And I'm feeling like this episode is much of an important one for the whole Dragon Ball(and probably DBZ too, 'cause I'm about to watch it after I finish this one).

I was expecting Oolong to step in. I probably should have known he'd want panties. xD

Poor Goku doesn't even know that he killed Gohan. :(

Oolong is the winner.
Goku's transformation at the full moon.
The first part of the story is ending faster than I remember.

Have you noticed that Goku is hungry during all the episode, and Yamcha flips a table full of food?

And Oolong wished for panties....lol.

The way this transformation occurred was definitely convenient, but there's two things. 1: Dragon Ball is not taking itself seriously right now, it's very comedic and lighthearted. 2: There has been foreshadowing since the beginning that something was up with Goku's tail.
This is how you do a scene like this, and even if it was a serious moment that was overly convenient, as long as the foreshadowing is there it isn't that much of an issue at all. Comparing this to a certain scene very late in Yuyu Hakusho,
, there is a big difference in execution. This was a charming and effective way to do such a scene.

i feel like the episodes are starting to have a lot of moments that only exist to pad out time and it's getting really tiring.

this did have the greatest dragon ball wish in the entire series though.

What a surprising episode. The world just got saved by a perverted, sassy, transforming pig with his ultimate wish, the most comfortable girl's pantsu ever.

Goku's sudden Ape transformation is another odd surprise. Does that mean he is some sort of a half-monkey half-human? Whatever the case, it is certainly tragic, because apparently, according to Goku, he killed his grandpa, Gohan, with his uncontrollable transformation. Poor kid. If he finds that out, he would be devastated. Hopefully, he doesn't, he could do without that helpless bit of info.

What becomes of the Dragon Balls after a wish has been made was interesting to know. It didn't cross my mind that the Dragon Balls could be reused again. But the catch is that you would have to wait for a year to start searching again. That's pretty cool.

Oolong is an interesting character. I seriously was not expecting that! What a waste of a wish though, hahaha. Would be funny if they managed to waste the next opportunity they got as well.
