Yup. having Ginyu/Trunks/Goten in it makes this better than the movie, never mind fixing up all the power relation goofs by removing power level crap statements.

edit: So do they go blue by punching each other really hard?

Yeah he granted two only in the movie, but it looks like they made some edits here. There were also small fixes by not mentioning things like Freezas new guys only being as strong as Zarbon or Dodoria or whatever as well.

I really hope that Ginyu appearing there was set-up for him having a role and not just a cameo. Because I'd love to see Ginyu again.

Also I really like that Super fixed the errors with the Dragon Balls in both BoG and now. It justifies only one wish in the BoG part by having Shenlong run the gently caress away from Beerus, and here he correctly gives three wishes, even stating how the wishes work. And Mai got ice cream, which is always a good wish. And the best ice cream is, logically, the best wish. Good for you, Mai.

And I honestly just felt so sorry for Pilaf here. He worked so hard to get those Dragon Balls, after decades of trying he finally succeeds...only to get them stolen. Can't a man just wish for world domination in peace? Geez.

Yeah, but the Earth dragon was remade to give two wishes, not three, so the movie was correct in that unless they decided to change it off-screen. Still, good for Mai, I hope that ice cream is satisfying.

Yup, The wish they ended up making was specifically to bring everybody but Goku and Freeza to earth.

This. They had to compromise on the wishes to keep the power to bring everyone back at once. Toriyama would later forget this compromise when the namekian dragon gets to bring everyone back and have three wishes

I think the reasoning is that it'd be funny to see freeza's reaction to the fact that he was apparently killed by a time traveller.

quote:

After Dende's remodeling, Shenron is able to grant three wishes. However, since Dende is not powerful enough, Shenron can only fulfil two of the three wishes if a large number of people are revived using one of the wishes. Wishes can also be saved until the next summoning; in this case, the Dragon Balls would scatter around the world in the same way as if someone had spoken all the wishes but will remain as stones for only four months, after which Shenron can be summoned again to grant the remaining wishes. Afterward, the balls scatter and turn into stones for a whole year. This is shown when Shenron is summoned to revive everyone who were killed by Majin Vegeta. The wish saved is used four months after Kid Buu's defeat, in order to erase the memories that the people of Earth had of Majin Buu except for Goku's friends and family.

This may not actually be the case. The two kids could barely handle Abo and Kado from the that special "Yo Son Goku and his Friends Return" who were stated as being as strong as Freeza.

Wouldn't Dende know about a spaceship landing on Earth? If he's anything like Kami he'd be standing on the lookout looking out. But then, did Kami notice Raditz landing?

Like all millennials, Dende just doesn't take his job seriously. He was probably texting on his phone or something instead of watching out for space terrorists. He let this happen.

I think this is just a case of power relationships between characters in DBZ making no sense, because Android 18 has a ton of trouble against Mighty Mask and Android 18 is waaaay stronger than Frieza.

Did Trunks/Goten go super saiyan against Abo/Kado? I can't remember if they actually did or not.

Freeza would drop any pretense of being affable and murder Trunks before Vegeta and Goku had any time to know what the hell was going on if he shows up where Freeza is before they get back.

Goten and Trunks didn't show up where Freeza is in the movie because there's just not many ways to write around Freeza seeing both of them and killing them in a bloodrage. Especially Trunks.

You can handwave that away by saying the Namekians were able to pool power or something to allow their dragon to do that.
