The franchise how many episodes




















You bet it does. This famous rubber lizard was built by Wah Chang and is currently owned by none other than Ben Stiller. Kirk refuses to kill the Gorn even though he could have, and Star Trek refused to put a lizard costume in a bunch of episodes later, even though they totally could have. Gold stars all around. The fact that Star Trek managed to introduce a race of aliens that looked exactly like Spock, and not confuse its viewership is amazing.

The notion that the Romulans look like Vulcans is a great twist in The Original Series , and decades upon decades of seeing Romulans has probably dulled the novelty ever so slightly. But, the idea that there was a brutally cold and efficient version of the Vulcans flying around in invisible ships blowing shit up is not only cool, but smart.

The legacy of this episode is beyond brilliant and set-up a wonderful tradition within the rest of the franchise; a monster story is almost never a monster story.

Bones gives Kirk shit about not having done his physical in a while, and Kirk wanders through the halls of the episode without his shirt, just kind of holding his boots. It just gets better and better from there. Like a good bottle of tranya, this episode only improves with time. No more blah blah blah!

Goku and his Friends Return! Recently released under the Rock The Dragon set. These feature both dub and sub versions of the show and are uncut as far as footage goes, however they lack the eyecatch sequences and "next episode" previews. These discs only cover from about halfway through the Frieza Saga to the end of the Z series basically where the "edited" DVDs listed above left off.

Uncut sub and dub DVDs starting at the beginning of the Z series, this was FUNimation's attempt to "bridge" the series by making uncut DVDs of episodes that had only previously been released edited see section 1. However they quickly came under controversy for using heavy digital noise reduction and cropping the picture, so as to format the picture for widescreen televisions. These sets rectify the problems of the Orange Brick Season Sets - featuring a frame-by-frame remastered version of the show and no cropping.

However, much to the chagrin of some fans, they do not include the FUNimation version music track. They still feature uncut dub and sub versions, however. These started coming out in November of , and the first two sets featured the best picture quality ever seen on a Dragon Ball home video release, featuring a clean presentation true to the source material.

Unfortunately, FUNimation cancelled this line due to the costly nature of the restoration. Will be released starting at the end of Unfortunately, FUNimation is cropping the picture again to make the set fit widescreen televisions.

This question is asked heavily on the message boards, even though it is explained in the series - no one can be wished back to life with the Dragon Balls who has been dead for over a year.

Additionally, no one can be wished back to life regardless of how long they have been dead who has died of natural causes. Three sets of Dragon Balls exist, that we see in the series. Each consists of seven balls, and can grant a wish or wishes when brought together. The best-known set, which are the ones regularly hunted down and collected by our heroes.

They were created by Kami, after he expelled the evil from his body that took the form of King Piccolo. They grant a single wish. These balls are about baseball-sized, and they are capable of bringing back any number of deceased people back to life with a single wish provided they are able to be wished back, some restrictions apply.

Shenron the Eternal Dragon summoned by the balls These Dragon Balls can not wish someone back to life more than once, as Shenron will not grant the same wish more than once. They become inert for a year after being used. Later, when Dende becomes guardian of the planet, he upgrades the balls so that they can grant two wishes, however they still can not bring people back to life more than once. These are introduced during our heroes journey to the planet Namek. They are much larger than the Earth Dragon Balls, roughly basketball size.

They were created by the Grand Elder of the Planet Namek. These balls have some tremendous advantages over their Earth counterparts - they grant THREE wishes instead of just one, and can bring someone back to life an infinite number of times, provided the person did not die of natural causes.

However, they do feature the disadvantage of only being able to revive a single dead person with a single wish - this was eventually changed following the founding of the planet New Namek, when Moori became the new Grand Elder. They are hidden in Kami's lookout, and were created by Kami before he separated the evil King Piccolo side from within, meaning they are far more powerful than any other Dragon Balls.

They are so powerful that they can grant virtually any wish, including some even the original Dragon Balls would not be capable of though exactly what all they are capable of is never truly and fully explored. The strength of these Dragon Balls comes with a huge drawback - after being used, the balls scatter across the entire universe - and if they are not gathered back together on the planet where the wish was made, the planet is destroyed a year later.

In the original manga version of the series, the most powerful character is Super Saiyan Vegito. Hirotaku Suzuoki passed away in following a battle with lung cancer. Kohei Miyauchi passed away in from abdominal varices. He was well known in the franchise as the voice of Master Roshi, voicing the character from the beginning of Dragon Ball, up until the Buu Saga.

Interestingly, his final scene voicing Roshi is where he was killed by Buu, turned into chocolate and eaten. This scene was recorded less than 3 months before Miyauchi's death.

Daisuke Gori committed suicide in early after being diagnosed with an illness that was taking away his eyesight. Of all of the Japanese voice actors, Gori had what was arguably the most impressive roster of voice acting for characters on the show, largely due to his deep, distinctive voice. Takeshi Aono died in , following ongoing complications from a stroke he had in Isamu Tanonaka passed away in , as a result of myocardial infarction. Tanonaka was better known for voice acting in other animes, but in the Dragon Ball franchise he voiced several brief but memorable characters, including Raiti one of a pair of aliens masquerading as a Namekian , and Bibidi the father of Babidi that only appears in a flashback in the anime.

Kenji Utsumi, known to Dragon Ball fans as the voice of Shenlong, passed away in from cancerous peritonitis at the age of He was the voice of Shenron on most occasions , Commander Red, Mutaito, and Recoome the latter character being recast in more recent Japanese versions of the show, though.

There is no concrete answer given for this question, but a popular theory is that he stopped wearing it due to the World Tournament's restriction on wearing protective armor. As he is still seen wearing his Cell Saga style armor in the Buu Saga opening sequence and again in the Yo! FUNimation's dub version is infamous for making some major blunders with series information.

These are a few such errors: -Raditz says Planet Vegeta was destroyed 3 years ago when he arrived on Earth, when it was actually closer to 20 years. This is a major plot hole for the dubbed version. For that to be true, Goku arriving on Earth and the entire original Dragon Ball series, and the years between Dragon Ball and Z would have to be crammed into a 3-year period, which is simply not true. However this is one of the few self-made plot holes FUNimation actually corrected in their initial re-dubbed version.

This is an interesting question that is not really given a specific explanation. When King Piccolo nearly killed Tien and severely wounded Goku, Goku did not waste time killing him when the moment arose. But 3 years later, When Piccolo Jr. He then shows similar acts of mercy to other villains in the Z series. There is no simple explanation since the series itself does not address this. However, one theory is that he learned to be merciful while training with Kami during the 23rd World Martial Arts Tournament, as the immediate aftermath is where we first see this side of him.

It is possible Goku decided it is best not to kill unless it is to save someone's life, or to stop a threat that could potentially destroy the world otherwise. Or it may also be because he want's to keep someone powerful enough to fight and train with, or protect earth if he can't do so himself. This is another common thing that confuses viewers of the English dubbed version of the show.

When Goku trains with King Kai, he learns a technique called the Spirit Bomb, which entails gathering energy from all living things and life energy on a planet, and harnessing it into a powerful sphere of energy. In an earlier episode, where Yamcha and other Z-Fighters go back in time to fight Saiyans of the past, he uses a technique where he charges up energy into a ball and heaves it at his enemies, being able to control it with his hand and finger motions.

It sounds like he says "Spirit Bomb" before he throws it. Goku's technique cannot be guided or controlled, and while Yamcha's move can be controlled, it is nowhere near as powerful as Goku's move. There are a few points to cover here. When there are anime-only pieces of content, factors like this are often not taken into consideration and some plot holes are created. This was most likely the case here.
