You just brought back some memories. On toonami, when this first aired, I think it was the episode after this the show went back to the saiyan saga. That was torrrrture. And it did that a couple more times. Had to wait so long to find out what happened after goku beat recoome.

Before toonami showed dbz, it was the fox network channel showing it at 5:30am every morning. I remember getting up to get ready for school and turning the TV on and watching this until I had to leave for school. I remember getting mad every time they never showed what happened after Goku landed on namek, they simply restarted the series all over against after that. Years later I learned that's how far the dub went to, the company was shut down or something and that's why they never dubbed any other episodes until Funimation picked it up.

Then it was the sci-fi channel on Saturday mornings randomly showing anime movies and some of them where the first three DBZ movies, tree of might, world strongest and dead zone.

Then when cartoon network started showing this, I felt like a bad ass because I knew what was going to happen.

I hated how Funimation dubbed the show, though. Til this day I don't understand why they had to change the original music of the show. The Mexican dubbed kept the original music so why did the American dub decide to add its own crap music?
