Goku is the one who introduced TWO STEP VERIFICATION

Osio

The current age of the cast. Goku: 12 Bulma: 16 Oolong: 9 Although it might not seem like it he’s 9 years old at the start of Dragon Ball. The girls look to be around Goku’s age so it’s safe to say they're 12 as well but it's just a guest.

JT

He 100% stared at Whis long enough to consider giving him the patdown.

Shadowpunch13

I appreciate that. It’s just felt kinda superficial being like “well the original version of this incredibly perverted scene is like xyz, whereas here it’s changed to be not as explicit, etc…” At that point I’d be going line by line, which would get old real fast (and frankly, I lack the patience). When there’s a big enough deviation I’ll be sure to mention it, that is unless someone else beats me to it.

Shadowpunch13

Well, you did a good job so far! My main takeaway from this episode is that in the sub, Bulma kept explicitly telling Goku not to pat people's crotches. I guess crotch was too inappropriate to use in the English dub. Also, when Bulma revealed herself to Oolong, he asked her what her breast size was. That's why she was showing her breasts. Honestly, it's funny no matter which translation you watch.

Yes, thoroughly enjoyed.

Not sure if you guys already know but oolong is inspired by Zhu Bajie. The lustful , lying pig & friend to Wukong & obviously Goku was inspired by Wukong i.e. the name Goku which is derivative from the name "Wukong" "Goku". The nimbus cloud & power pole is another inspiration. You guys will see that inspiration a lot. Especially heavy in OG Dragon Ball & yes Japan even still to this day as a total different sense of humor than western media. It's a totally different culture especially back then & funny to us, most of the time there are no rules lol

Wonderful opening. "She worked for her money." Damn right she did. Love that that broke Ken a little. The look on Bethany's face when Goku does pat pat is fantastic. "Pillsbury Dough Boy?!" ...you were aiming for Staypuft Marshmallow Man, weren't you? I like Bethany's eye roll at Bulma. Obviously, DBZA did not exaggerate with the Zarbon scene. Information lost in the anime: Oolong, here, is younger than Goku. If I remember correctly, he's like 8 or 9. The fact that his voice sounds like an adult causes some confusion and issues, obviously, but he is still a kid. I'm so happy for you, Bethany, that that's how you learn about motorboating. Obviously, as you can tell, Goku does outgrow the pat pat...which is good, since that would obviously be a lot more problematic when he's older. Comparing a Dragon Ball to a Tennis Ball is hilarious, to me.

This was a fun episode, I love the pat pat running joke, as bad as it is 😂

Cynergy

Revisiting these early episodes in retrospect makes me appreciate them so much more. I always had my gripes with arc 3 because the humor always clashed with the story. But in these early episodes, there is little to no story, so the humor hits really well since it IS the focus

Hohoho

We appreciate it 😂

Cynergy

14:28 I don’t think you’ll ever find this sequence of words together except in Dragon Ball, and that is the beauty of the show

Hohoho

Goku’s patting thing is so funny 💀

Hohoho

Toyotarou's art had been steadily improving since Moro and it's nice to see he's still keeping at it. I definitely would wonder what he'd have in store, if he continues.

Shadowpunch13

@Tal Rubin I agree. Certainly not a bad start from Toyotarou w/o Toriyama at his side (not that Toriyama was "super" involved with what Toyo was doing).

JT

I read it yesterday. I actually really like it. Honestly the chapter had a lotta heart

Tal Rubin

Apologies, JT, that first reply wasn't aimed at you. EDIT: No sweat, as an aside, you can block people on here, can you? Now that’s certainly interesting information. 👀

Shadowpunch13

I've never watched the "dub" until these reactions. Now that that's beginning to change, it wouldn't be out of the question. EDIT: Oh my bad. Whoever replied first must be either blocked by me or blocked me instead lol. I have a fairly good idea who it might be tho, haha

JT

JT, don’t, you’ve done too much already. I can’t put this on you. 😭

Shadowpunch13

You've never even watched the sub, who are you kidding? lmao

Shadowpunch13

At least it doesn't sound like nails on a chalk board like the sub.

REDE

hmmm...

JT

Goku is 12 here

REDE

Honestly there's too many changes between the original and the dub to name, between the censorship and the dialogue changes/additions that I have officially thrown in the towel, four episodes in. In all fairness, that was four more episodes than I was prepared to do.

Shadowpunch13

Also Goku is much younger than 14, he does state that he's 14 in the manga when he's watching Bulma bathe, but he states his actual age later on since he doesn't actually know how old he is.

Jason Rogue

Title Card: Original translation of the Japanese title, "Oolong, the Kidnapping Demon" This episodes adapts Dragon Ball Chapters 5 and 6 pages 1-11.

Shadowpunch13

Think of a Dragon Ball as a diamond. They are they're like badazzling, like a jewel.

Jason Rogue

After reading the manga, it's interesting to find out that Oolong is actually much younger than Bulma. She states that she's 16 when she's entranced by Oolong. Oolong states that he can't choose between an older curvy woman or the younger girl.

Jason Rogue

2:36 BTW, be wary about Crunchyroll's "skip recap" button for the dub of this series. It seems to work fine for the sub, but for whatever reason it seems to skip past footage that isn't part of the recap segments that'll start showing up later whenever you use it for the dubbed versions of the episodes. Don't know why.

JT

Goku being an unintentional perv is just so hilarious to me 💀😂

Austin Collier

2:00 Pretty sure that's just supposed to be Goku's POV of flying through mountains on the Nimbus.

JT

Thank you for reminding me, almost forgot about it.

Jason Rogue

Here we go fellas, first post of the stupid. Ball Joke Counter: 6

JT

Anyone else read the latest DBS chapter? I had some fun with it, but it still made me long for us to continue with the story again.

JT

Fun Fact: Naoki Tatsuya, Oolong’s Japanese voice actor, has also voiced Porky Pig in the Japanese dubs of several Looney Tunes shows/movies. He uses the same type of voice between the two.

JT

While not being a direct reference to Sun Wukong, Oolong himself was also inspired by Journey to the West. He’s loosely based on a humanoid pig-like character named Zhu Bajie (sometimes translated as “Pigsy”) who traveled alongside the monkey king. He was a former immortal commander-in-chief of celestial troops. He had a lazy, greedy, and lustful personality, that ended up getting him banished to Earth after harassing the moon goddess Chang’e.
