have to say There's a lot of moments, I'm going to be honest, this film is ridiculous as hell, but it's so cool when it wants to be. But as you said, you know, you've got the fight between Vegeta, Goku and Junemba, and then they do the fusion dance, which is probably weird that Vegeta doesn't, although I suppose he wouldn't have been there. again i get that this is again I mentioned they don't want to explain things because it's a shonen but Vegeta vaguely offhand goes oh by the way it's absolutely awful being dead I'm not like you and it's a really poignant moment and then they just kind of go I don't wanna miss it I guess they don't have time to talk about it in this 50 minute film so let's move on real quick yeah we've got to get to the B port quick I don't have to admit, I do love the gag with Shenron being summoned. Do you remember that? So funny. So just to recap the listeners, there's a scene where Glohan summons Shenron and says, you know, oh, can you wish everybody back to hell and the rightful places? And initially he's like, okay, no problem. And he's like, yeah, the barn door's kind of opened. Even if I put them back, they would still come out. And they're like, oh, damn, that sucks. And nobody makes a wish. And that is so damn funny. I could note some laughing. And especially there's like an almost after-credits scene where he's like, does anyone want to make a wish? Nobody's made a wish. I thought, oh, that's as I said, this film when it wants to be cool is really, really damn cool. But something I always found weird, and it wasn't until I re-watched this, because initially I thought there was a difference in art style, see between Hell and Just Our World. The Land of the Living as it were, but they only do that for some scenes. I always thought that the Land of the Living that they had thicker outlines, and don't get me wrong I really like the animation, but there's no real consistency to it. Now I wonder if it's something to do with the animation hell so busy with all the things floating around and I wonder if that was more of a necessity rather than a choice and then at that point they just committed to so much of it. I don't know. I'd love to know the story behind it. It does feel like at some point it looks more like Dragon Ball and stuff on Earth and then other times it looks totally different. Because the weird thing is, it never happens when Goku and Vegeta are fighting Junemba. It never once happens with that, but it's more with Goten and Trunks. and There's even one bit where a guy sees his dead wife come back from the grave. And again, I don't think the Japanese dub probably does this, but I find it funny the English dub where the dead wife comes up and she's like, oh my god, you've got no hope. And he's like, it's been 60 years, give me a break.
