Goku's rock scissor paper attack is legend :) I'm really liking this series.

Yamcha is obviously more than he appears. It's interesting that he knows about the staff and Gohan considering that Goku and him lived in the middle of nowhere for so long.

Okay, it was nice to see Yamcha and Puar or (Yamucha and Pu-erh as they're called in the Japanese version.). I like how Bulma missed everything until the end. xD

More interesting episode than the previous ones - Yamucha is interesting person and the transforming pig is getting on my nerves already. Looking forward to the next episode.

I think this was the best episode so far. I laughed out loud when they fished for Oolong with Bulma's "shorts."

"Do you like Pork?"

Ahahahaha. I think that Goku could have taken him. So young yet so beast.

Goku vs Yamcha is the first real fight in the series. A lot of funny moments too.

Let's hope Yamcha isn't as embarrassing in Dragon Ball as he is in DBZ.

How did this joke work in Japanese, does the word for gas just coincidentally rhyme/sound-like the word for ass?


Yamcha's here!

Hmm, Bulma questioned Goku's tail, but I've rarely seem new characters do that.

Yamcha!! Loved the Wolf Fang Fist and him being terrified of Bulma was so funny. They would make a good match! There's only a few dragon balls left but still so many episodes! I wonder if Bulma is going to get to make her wish!

"I am not that kind of pig," Oolong said after Goku proceeded to innocently pat his crotch in hopes of discovering his gender. This was quite enlightening, now we know for sure that Oolong is as straight as he proclaims.

This was the first major fight in the series so far. If the fight wasn't interrupted and Goku wasn't as starved, I am almost certain that Goku would have won the scuffle, it is a good thing this ended up as a draw. Maybe Goku can regain his strength back to fight Yamcha evenly the next time he strikes back, which I assume he would. I have to give it to Goku, though. He sure knows how to take physical damage. Getting flunk like that and buried under a rubble of stone pillars? Ouch. Not to mention bullets, axes, and other handheld weapons don't even leave a vital scratch on his body. What is he made of?

I found it interesting that Yamcha seems to know about Goku's grandfather, Gohan. Since Goku lives in a solitary mountain, the most likely scenario is that this Gohan was famous far and wide before he took residence up in the mountainside. Otherwise, how could Yamcha come to know Gohan?

This show really has a thing with anthropomorphic characters. Can't blame Oolong for trying to escape though, I would probably do the same after witnessing their insanity, hahaha.
