This was right after she and some Frieza Soldiers had a Giant Crab Battle. Like I appreciate giving Bulma things to do and breaking up the action but some of that stuff was weird.

There were no Freeza soldiers underwater. That was Bulma trying to recover the Dragonball that rolled away from her.

The second arc of the crab saga included frieza soldiers. They sought the dragonball, she led them to the crab.

Yet where is that woman now? Tell me, in what heave does she reside? None of them. Because no God bothered to listen or care. If that is what you think it means to be a God, then you and all your teachings are welcome to do as that poor women did. And vanish from these realms forever.

The crab saga ends in tragedy when the last baby crab, prince of all crabs, bravely defends Vegeta from Frieza, but is promptly eaten due to his lack of training and overconfidence.

That was such a weird goddamn thing to happen. I wonder what the thought process was behind "lets having Frieza randomly take a bit out of a crab"

It insisted that it had realized the legend, the legend that Frieza feared.

It already happened before BotG. The issue was that one of the guidebooks claimed she was born before Pan, but a guidebook that came after it reversed that. Manga was ambiguous about it, GT seemed to support the former, BotG makes it clear than Pan is older.

So I just learned that in Dragon Ball Heroes, Goten and Trunks get to fuse as teens/adults. Grown-up Gotenks is the best.

Well they were about to in GT and then Vegeta said "NO! You're both slackers in training Gotenks will be useless here!"

and that's the reason we never got Gotenks in GT.

To be fair to GT, which is not a series of words I like using, the Buu saga also hosed up with Gotenks and Gohan. Not as much, though, considering GT literally started with Kid Goku, Pan, and Trunks accidentally blasting off without anyone else.

The thing here is that Vegeta is implying that Gotenks was anything other than useless back in the Buu saga. I mean, yeah he was entertaining. But did he do anything other than lose due to his arrogance and get absorbed?

Speaking of the beginning of GT; you know how the Funimation/Toonami run of GT started with episode 17 and described the other 16 episodes (which because it's GT is the entire first arc) in a recap episode? What was with that? Did someone know that they had a stinker on their hands? Or is there a more boring reason?

In a couple movies, Pan kills Goku while he's got someone in a full nelson hold. Possibly a revived Raditz.
