DBSlice Of Life is great. This show is so great. I keep saying this over and over. But I've been rewatching DBZ (english dub, japanese soundtrack, because switch it up a bit, and also it's the default audio for the files i have). I've mostly been skipping past the fights because I just wanna see characters emote and talk to each other. I've mostly started from the Adult Gohan arc (tourney + majin buu)

DBZ has so many pregnant pauses tho. I'm like, "Why isn't there more dialogue, this is wasting valuable time I should be showering or eating food".

That arc was where everyone stopped giving a poo poo and most fights were filled out with the same 3 second punch and kick exchange looped over and over. I know they did that throughout the series, but I remember it being really gratuitous in the Goku/Majin Vegeta fight.

These no fighting episodes are awesome, but I wouldn't really call them slice of life seeing as there's nothing mundane or realistic about any of them.

A granddaughter with superpowers who gets kidnapped by a blue imp and a ninja-dog and an assassin - all who were turned into children by magical wishing spheres that summon a dragon - and they flew away into space in their attack mech.

Reminds me of the good old days..

It was all off camera. They finally got their wish and wished for their youth for some reason instead of world domination or to become billionaires when they could have just gotten the Dragon Balls back after another year or so.

Goku's character seems a lot different in Super than he was in Z. Yeah, I know his being less playful has a lot to do with the English dub, but it still seems like they downplayed that a lot since there was so much poo poo going on with the fate of the world. In Super he's actually pretty entertaining instead of the plot just being about him training.

Well, he's also actually around more. In DBZ he spends most of the series out of commission or fighting someone. Super lets him breathe more.

It is weird after watching mostly the dub my entire life to watching it subbed and the tonal difference I get between the two throws me off at times.

The dub with its voice acting and music is so much more serious

What I don't get is why when their house gets destroyed they don't just call up Bulma and ask for a capsule house or something.. He's the savior of the universe, Bulma is a billionaire.

Because they want their old house, duh. Plus Goku is a multi-millionaire and Chichi is a princess.

Good excuse to hang with the new grandkid, and it's not like they aren't effectively being bankrolled by the second richest person anyways.

ChiChi wants something to force Goku to be around, and so far having to have a job to provide for the family is the only thing that kind of gets him to not immediately run off to train. So she lies and says they're broke so he has to go be a dirt farmer.

If she was smart she'd round up the dragon balls and wish for the most intense training facility in the universe to be built in their back yard

To be fair she also wants Goku to stop playing videogames doing punchman things because it sets a bad example for their children and is immature.

Maybe she should set up a match between him and Guile.

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.

Seems like an odd choice to have that happen off camera. Pilaf trying to find the Dragonballs is like the oldest recurring storyline in all of Dragonball, to have the scene where he finally gets to make a wish happen as an offhand comment is weird. Like, I imagined that his wish was foiled once again or something and that why hes a kid (like when he turned Goku into a kid in GT), but come on at least show it! I want to see him getting foiled, not just hear about it.

Maybe the modern Dragonball fan just doesn't care about poor Emperor Pilafs character development :(

So whatever this game is, it looks like might be covering some classic Dragon Ball stuff? I see images from the 21st Tournament and Path to Power.

Also Bio-Broly and Dead Zone.

EDIT: Also apparently the boxart to the Budokai HD Collection and Attack of the Saiyans?
