On today's adventure, we're joined by Maxy Barnard, host of the podcast, Friendship Effort Victory, as well as a contributor to the Shonen Flop podcast, to discuss Episodes 43-45 of the original 1986 Dragon Ball anime! In which, after saving Jingle Village from the rule of Muscle Tower, Goku flies off to the big city to find Bulma to fix the Dragon Radar! But little does he know, he'll have to face all the dangers that come with entering the concrete jungle such as street fights, muggings, but most of all...capitalism! All while also being hunted down by master thief, Husky, who has been hired by the Red Ribbon Army to steal Goku's dragon balls!
Join us as we discuss Goku's entertaining fish-out-of-water antics, a little wrestling, and why you should watch the SpongeBob SquarePants Musical! Enjoy!!

On today's adventure, we're joined by TheSubtleDoctor, host of the Warui Deshou anime podcast, to discuss the very first Dragon Ball theatrical film, The Legend of Shenlong (or Curse of the Blood Rubies)! We chat with SubtleDoc about his relationship with the franchise without ever interacting with the original Dragon Ball in ANY capacity, and how that contributed to his enjoyment of this first movie, as it is an alternate retelling of the first 13 episodes of the original anime! We not only discuss how this movie could possibly be enjoyed as someone's first gateway into Dragon Ball, but also our thoughts on Funimation's English dub of the film released in 2010, as well as just how well this film may or may not succeed in condensing the first arc of the series in general! Enjoy!

On today's adventure, we're joined by VlordGTZ (host of many podcasts, including the New York Times recommended, Demon Slayer Podcast), as we discuss episodes 39-42 of the 1986 Dragon Ball anime! As Goku makes his way through the rest of Muscle Tower with the help of his new robot friend, Android #8 (or Eighter as he and the rest of us affectionately refer to him)! We discuss how the pacing of these episodes drag even more in places then the last batch we covered, and even wonder if these may be some of the weakest episodes of the show we've watched so far. We also ask ourselves questions like, how is a "Powered Gun" any different then a regular gun?. Could Super Saiyan Blue Goku defeat the Jiggler? Are these episodes "later-season Simpsons" bad, or are they "middle-era Family Guy" bad? Listen and find out!!

Akira Toriyama passed away recently on March 1st, 2024, and the world won't be the same without him. Colton & Sakaki have a somewhat unorganized talk in order to get their feelings out and ruminate on what Toriyama's influence meant to both the world and their friendship.
