I try, but since I started working again I've been too sleepy. I like the new dub work, so I hope they go through them again. That way I can catch all the episodes I've slept through. Providing I don't sleep through them again that is.

there still leaving out the cussing in it. Oh well the blood, guts, and gore are a nice change from the first time they showed it a few years back.

"damn" and "bastard" are still being said.

this is still tv, and to keep their TV-14 rating they can't use all the cuss words

DBZ has some cool stuff in it, I'll grant it that. I've seen enough videos to get that much. Is there a particular part, to start with, or maybe a side story that's worth watching?

All the eps that I've seen have like 60% of the time with the main chracters powering up and screaming as their hair gets longer. I watched several disks of Dragonball GT and I have to say it was pretty weak. Is it typical of the rest of the series?

There's alot to start from. What you really need to watch is is 'Dragonball' then 'Dragonball Z'

Now watch out for the movies cause they don't always coincide. Dragonball is the perfect starting point.

The japanese vocabulary in dbz isn't complex enough to translate to those words :P

Although "kuso" still equals feces, poop, or in other words, "shit", it can still be interpreted as "damn" in that expression.

Is it true that DBZ had some small/filler arcs cut from the original US releases?

I remember being told there was something about an invisible guy stalking people at Roshi's house. To make him visible they had Bulma tease Roshi till his nose bled excessive amounts and splattered all over the guy... and probably everything else too.

Wouldn't suprise me if that turned out to be some bunk info. ;) Maybe it was from Dragonball instead...

Mostly just small filler eps. Although even in the censored episodes, they left an entire filler arc in (although some parts of the eps had non-filler in them which is why they were somewhat important).

I'm pretty sure the invisible guy thing was fake. :P
