The Chi Chi fight at the tournament is one of the funniest moments for me. Goku's reaction was great. I also loved the introduction to Pilaf and the breaking the fourth wall bits, along with his disgust over Bulma's vulgarity. However, there seems to be two details missing from the manga and now I'm curious where they came from. The first being why is Pilaf and gang stuck as children? When did that happen for it to be a plot point in both GT and Battle of Gods? Secondly, in the Z anime they said Goku trained in the Room of Space and Time, was that an anime invention? If so, how do they train in the manga during the Cell saga to get stronger? Wait, don't tell me, I'll get there soon enough. My favorite arcs include the first two Tenkai'ichi Bodoukais and the Red Ribbon Army.

Overall, I am glad I have finally had the chance to read through the original series so I now know where everything is in the Z anime. Of course, I've also started watching the DB anime (up to episode 32), but I can't say the anime has grasp me as much as the manga. Nevertheless, I give this series a great 9/10 stars and look forward to reading through the Z portion now.

glad you enjoyed Dragon ball manga one of my fave story and the fact i can watch the yo son goku and his friends return OVA special before the chapter pan shows up and along with Battle of gods is good inclusion fo the continuation of the show serise
