Roshi had hair when he was younger, so I'm sure he wasn't bald as a child. I guess it was done on purpose so he will be recognizable. He looks like Krillin with glasses on.

My sweet Bulma is still useful as always!
@KoniginElle It's more like that they're with child bodies instead of their bodies when they're children. Chi-Chi doesn't look like how she was in DB, and Buu wasn't fat when he was born

So I have a question, what does this make of the Kaio-shin? Are they also demons? Or are Gods also pointy eared people.

I have some ideas about "where is Gohan".

One, that man was not studying. Well at least not school material. Our boy was so sneaking around and going on a date instead of attending the birthday.
Second, looking at him and Dende being somewhat the same age we will be dealing not with first grader Gohan but with baby Gohan.
Third, he is not in the opening or party but people did bring him up. There will be a Gohan or Earth story happening in the show. A smaller B plot that can be a more slice of life ordeal.

I suppose, the introduction of the plot is over now and the real thing will begin in episode 3

I've always liked Goku's japanese VA, I've grown up listening to it, and I legit think is far superior that any dub voice there is.

But, damn, Goku, PLEASE SHUT THE FUCK UP FOR 5 SECONS, HOLY SHIT, SHUT THE FUCK UP!!!!!!!!! HE IS ANNOYING AS SHIT, HE NEVER WAS LIKE THIS, SURE HE TALKS A LOT BUT THIS SHIT IS INSANE, SHUT UP!!!
Sorry if my english is bad (っ˘▽˘)っ~~~
Btw, cry about it.

This episode felt so refreshing and nostalgic. The amazing vibe of OG Db.

Piccolo looks young at 12, but he was really that age when training for the androids.

And yeah, I can totally see Vegeta coming to save Goku in a fight.

We know that Piccolo was the Demon King in OG Dragon Ball series. If that's the case, why doesn't he remember anything of the Demon Realm?

So many problems, but it's all about having a good time. Shenron is funny.
Super was multiversal angels, destroyers, omniking with getting the power of the gods
Daima is bi-dimensional Demon Realm focus with little more back to basics shenanigans.

AAAA I had a big dumb smile on my face as I watched this, everyone is so expressive and cute!! Goku even has the power pole back, shame he didn’t bring the Kinto Un too!!

I’m excited to explore the demon realm, the banger opening makes it look like there’s a lot to explore. It also has a cutaway shot of Glorio looking somber, so I agree with Supreme Kai that something’s up with him.

Disappointing "chibi" transformation, I was hoping to see them with their old features., and not just "tinified".
Recycling of a DB joke (Mutenroshi's legendary fan that became a table mat), God's ship and Trunk's machine and... revelation of Popo's horned head.


Looks like the Demon universe is being made to become the origin of everything "weird" in DB. -_-


3/5
A transitional episode made of callbacks.


(Why did they change Bejita's voice?)

Toriyama must really hate Trunks and Goten, turning them into babies is just a way to write them out of the plot. Of course Vegeta gets cucked too and Gohan is doing Gohan things.

This is essentially a GT remake right? I wonder if we get some of the cooler parts of that show as well here, I wasnt a fan of GT but the concept of using the monkey transformation for a super saiyan and overusing the dragonballs was pretty good.

This is an okay episode. My issue is that this is seeming like it's too cutesy. My friend was right when he said it seems like it's a repeat of GT because just like in GT they're transformed into kids and they're spending time trying to get use to their bodies and adapting. The only change to this is that they're trying to gain the attention of the original Dragon Ball audience because Goku has his staff again.

It's still an okay show, but I still don't know if this is something Dragon Ball fans wanted. I'm going to keep watching, but I'm going to remain skeptical.

Mostly a set up episode. Fun to see how everyone reacted to being changed into children. I get the sense that this series is going to be more about comedy than action, which I think is okay. I loved how they focus on small things, like what happened to the power pole. (7.5/10)

Gomah is lowkey AN IDIOT! Based on your interaction with Dende, you know that Dende is likely a friend of Goku, therefore your wish would affect him. He’s the guardian of Earth’s Dragon Balls, therefore if he’s affected, he loses his power, AND SO DO THE DRAGON BALLS! I get that you didn’t get three wishes that you were supposed to.

Speaking of, what Shenron said is even more proof that Daima is separate from Super. One of Frieza’s subordinates went to Earth for the first time and was allotted three wishes, so in Super it’s not a requirement to be a regular before attaining three wishes.

Getting back to Gomah, WHY WOULDN’T YOU MAKE AN EXCEPTION IN THE WISH TO NOT AFFECT DENDE?! Absolute MORON! And in case anyone tries to that Dende would be able to fight back, Degesu proved that he can easily handle both him and Popo, so that wouldn’t be an issue. The fact that Dende was turned into a baby means that despite his looks, he was no older than a third grader.

As for the Z Fighters, it was funny hearing Bulma tell Krillin that HE WAS ALWAYS SHORT TO BEGIN WITH! Damn Krillin got roasted there. Since this takes place at a similar time to Super, if Videl is pregnant with Pan, what happens to the two of them? Obviously Videl can’t carry a child as a third grader. I wonder if Gohan will become relevant to the story.

I’m surprised that Piccolo knows about Neva, and it was interesting to hear about the history of the Namekians in the Demon Realm. I understand valuing freedom over comfort. At least the major contributors in solving this are up to speed with everything that’s going on, which brings up my next point…

Who is this Glorio and why did he specifically want Goku? I’m guessing it’s because he was the one to land the final blow on Majin Buu (granted Goku required the energy of everyone on Earth and it seems people seem to forget that within the show).

I’m excited to see what kind of shenanigans Goku gets into!

The dub finally dropped today and its lovely to have Stephanie Nadolny back as Goku. I do wish they also brough back Krillin's og va but I'm still very happy that Goku's is back.
Almost all the voices are very good, Bulma's sounds super accurate and Vegeta's is tool; Piccolo's will need some getting used to though.

What even is this garbage??? It's full of plot holes!

- You can't just force use the dragon balls when they're stones! They need to recover their energy to summon Shenron.
- There's no such thing that 'new customers' get only one wish.
- Dende forgot he could just contact Goku telepathically and ask him to teleport to the lookout and beat the bad guys before they could make their wish...
- Goten and Trunks can communicate telepathically?
- The group forgot they could ask Porunga to turn them back to adults and repair the spaceship.
- The group could gather Earth's dragon balls and put them inside the Hyperbolic Time Chamber for a day. They could turn back to adults in like two days...
- "At this rate it'll take too long to get used to this size." If only there was a thing called Hyperbolic Time Chamber for Goku to practice in...
- Bulma forgot she always works on stuff in her workshop in Capsule Corp. She wasted time building one in the lookout and used Kibito as an errand boy.
- Bulma figures out how to repair the spaceship just buy looking at one from the outside with a flash light. She doesn't need to open up the hood and look at the internal components. The writers truly gave up it seems.
- "The plane only carries three people." The other group had 4 when they kidnapped Dende! Mr. Popo confirmed it's the exact same type of ship.

I gotta be honest with you: I couldn't get pass how cute the characters are now that they're little children. If this new show was about cute children doing cute things, I would have been okay with that. I know that Dragon Ball isn't about that, but you gotta admit it's an interesting premise.

Better than the first episode in my opinion, though this really is giving me GT vibes, though much better paced than GT and overall giving a better explaination of why characters like Goku and Piccolo are depowered.

Gotta laugh when heard that it was shin's bro, because it reminded me of thousands of fanfics I read when super came out... who was the monster who wrote this?! the credits says it was published on v jump.
practically they shat on the Kai shin and namek's lore, these races don't have any direct siblings... I mean they're all from the same place/person... even when kaio sama explained the apple tree where kaio shins came from 😅
it has some lousy details about the appearances of the characters... gokuu was chubby, bulma is older than chichi, Roshi wasn't bold before, eh.. androids can't age, etc. it's really just another milking the franchise with chibi versions.
Anyway, this just aspires to be another dbgt with the adventure thing 1/1 🤮
ps: also, where's Videl? I mean, Satan is there but not her...

Interesting, so Gomah kidnapped Dende and now all the cast who are kids are going to save him and get the dragon balls to get back to their adult form with the help of Glorio, but obviously he's a bit suspicious...
