It's a drawing within the episode that looks, super-deformed and he kinda looks like Lupin. It's when Vegeta is giving a thumbs-up if I remember correctly.
He's pointing his finger like a gun.
Oh yeah, whoops. My bad.

This Lupin Vegeta. It's just a badly animated shot, really.

If they don't left out that shot from the episode I don't know what they were thinking. :P

Why! Why didn't they fix this? Vegeta has no fucking eyes! :lol: I find it funny...

I thought that was one of those facial expressions where they don't show the eyes in order to indicate to the audience that the character in question is hiding whatever emotion they may be feeling at the moment.

Like when a character with bangs uses them to shield their eyes during a dramatic scene. :?:

Possibly, except I don't think that ever happened in Dragonball. Ever.

I think it's failed "shadow around the eyes cuz I'm all mysterious and shit".

Yeah I gotta agree with Freeza.exe. They could've done it like this:

Except for the fact that it was a crappy Paint edit, intentionally saved as a JPEG to make it looks like it fits with the image more; but, still fails.

Just watching the episode now. That shot of Dodoria crashing the Namekian into the wall looked really good, as did Dodoria killing Cargo.

And do you think we'll ever see a new opening? Maybe once Goku arrives on Namek?

Very fast paced episode, the chase scene was handled very well. I guess they didn't want to show Bulma's full body in the bath scene :P, oh and Aya Hirano really did well on Dende's voice xD. Freeza's voice was terrifying, in a good way ;). Looking forward to next episode, you know maybe a few more weeks and we should be seeing the Ginyu Special Squad.

They won't be showing up for 6 weeks at least I think, since the whole thing with Vegeta's finger is supposed to be episode 28.

But not only was the pace fast, the scenes themselfes were pretty fast, like a "slow fast forward" if you get what I mean, comparing with the original dragon ball z episode(s). And I'm still not enjoying Freeza's voice.

I also noticed that. At least Dodoria beating the crap of the Namekians seems a lot faster than in Z.

Maybe I've just seen so much of The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya, but Dende just sounds like her with Hirano as his VA. It's bizzare having Kuririn and Gohan talk to Haruhi.

Well, at least she'd be happy finding an alien. Now if she only met Trunks and Chaozu, she could cover two other things, time traveller, and "esper".

I'm pretty sure there was a comic similar to this, but with Freeza in her class, as well as Dabura ("slider").

The victim of violent head trauma as an infant [...] he's a simple bumpkin with a fair share of brain damage who's natural talents to work out what's wrong compensate for his broad lack of common sense. But he's also a fighter, through and through [...] he fight until he has, in no uncertain terms, beaten his enemy on terms they can both acknowledge. He doesn't want to kill anyone, or even prove that he can win... he just wants to know he can. He's an ineffably charming bastard who's manly leanings were really incendental, and yes, the fact that he was voiced by a squeaky woman made the combination perhaps all the more charming.

That's epic. XD

I've been watching Kai and Haruhi Season 2 (1.5?) together so its fun seeing little crossovers like this.

[offtopic]It's funny because it has stuff that takes place during Season 1, and now the whole show is all over the place. The Slayers anime adaptation has a similar issue as well though.[/offtopic]

Ok, Lupin Vegeta is hilarious and I hope they keep him.
Dark eyed Vegeta looks really cool to me, I think it works very nicely, when I saw it, it was like "Dodoria, I'm gonna kill you in 5 different ways if you give one step forward"

Can anyone translate that strip comic?
