The symbol written on the piece of paper! It really goes a much longer way in the series than you might initially realize, Baris! The Kanji that was shown was 魔 Ma! It more closely translates to "demon" or even "evil" itself! It is the same kanji used in words like 魔法 Mahou which means "magic" in Japanese (but more literally translates to "dark/evil practices"). It is kanji that is deeply connected to Piccolo! Many techniques related to Piccolo include it!! Such as the Special Beam Cannon which is called the 魔貫光殺砲 Makanko Sappo in Japanese! Gohan's 魔閃光 Masenko which was a technique taught to him by Piccolo!! And of course the 魔封波 Mafuuba as you mentioned! It is also the same Ma used in 魔人 Majin and is also the reason why Piccolo goes by the pseudonym "Ma Junior" in the 25th World Tournament in the Buu Saga even in the English dub!! Since he is literally King Piccolo's offspring or the son of Evil! And of course that also extends to the Ma marking of the letter "M" on Vegeta's forehead during the Buu Saga. It all stemmed from the fact that originally Piccolo was intended to simply be a demon rather than an alien! Which is why he has the demonic-looking henchmen that are all named after musical instruments just like him! [Also as an aside: considering that the upcoming Dragon Ball DaiMa 大魔 (also includes the kanji) takes place in the Demon Realm, I suspect this symbol may continue to make an appearance in the near future! Let's keep an eye out for it! 魔

That tournament announcer definitely has the same voice actor as future trunks...

Tambourine did appear in a filler episode of Dragon Ball Super, during the segment of Krillin training to regain his fighting spirit.

Gotta give credit to Super, bringing back so many aspects of OG DB. Not only things like the Mafuba but also random callbacks like the techniques they use that’s never seen in Z. Casuals who only watched Z won’t appreciate that in Super

Ricardo González Vega

That's why so much people insist in watching db even if the beginning feels a little childish, the progression... It's just amazing

Thunder

Are you going to react to the latest Daima trailer?

This is such a great episode because of how much lore is revealed here. The introduction of Piccolo, the missing pieces of why Shen was so rotten, more of Roshi's past, introduction of the Mafuba, and a great cliffhanger to top it all off. You are right that this feels like a whole new series, as Krillin's death and the Piccolo arc in general is when Dragon Ball completes its metamorphosis from what it originally was and becomes what we would recognize as DBZ. We got brief hints of it in the past with Tao and Tien early in the tournament, but now that evolution is complete. Buckle up, this arc is fantastic.

Kami pretty much doomed everyone because he split from his evil side to become guardian and Piccolo wrecked havoc all over the world Kami was supposed to guard...How ironic

RavenFighter91

This is really the start of Dragon Ball shifting towards villians who threaten the whole world

Alfreddd

that whole tournament was such gold I could see how much you enjoyed it

Colton Chandler

Freeing King Piccolo was the best thing Pilaf ever did.

Cool thanks for sharing your knowledge! I’ve been starting to learn some Japanese myself recently. I got Hiragana and Katakana pretty much down by now but I haven’t really had a chance to learn much more yet. Only Kanji’s I know are pretty much what I’ve seen in DB. I did try typing Majin (まじん) before on Google Translate and it gives you the option to change to 魔人 and I was like “I’ve seen this Kanji before!”. So does Ma-Jin Buu pretty much translate to Buu of the Demon Race? I always knew that Piccoro Daimao is what DKP is referred to in Japanese so hearing the new show would be called Daima when the name was first revealed had me already thinking it would tie something to him. I would appreciate any resources you’d recommend to keep learning Japanese! I want to be able to one day watch DB from the beginning in the original Japanese without any subtitles lol.

Keep in mind that Jackie Chun is evenly strong as Tien and Goku.

The Hype

This is the point where Dragon Ball changed forever. It is longer a gag anime, but it is now a serious dramatic anime. Late Dragon Ball is what molded DBZ, GT, and Super to have tropes that all started here. As much as I love the Saiyan and Freeza arcs this came before them, and copied a lot of things from the Piccolo Arc.

The Hype

Kuririn's first death has always symbolized the death of old Dragon Ball to me. The Dragon Ball that started off as a cutsy, and childlike anime is dead now. With the introduction of Piccolo came a new era of Dragon Ball that is much more serious, and deals with high stakes that could cause serious repercussions. It's really interesting how Kuririn represents old Dragon Ball while Piccolo represents new Dragon Ball.

Now you know why Goku went SSJ on Namek

Actually DB already shifted into a serious tone the moment Tao killed Bora. It's where we enter the domain of hardcore martial arts and military power like the RR army can no longer keep up. Guns does not hurt Bora a single bit but a spear flying against the force of gravity pierce through him.

Douglas Murray

The Pilaf gang became more like a joke in later series. In early OG DB, Pilaf seems to have unlimited source of wealth, resources and technology. Even after his castle went down by Oozaru Goku, his flying Death Star shot down by Colonel Silver's aerial swarm (also don't forget that underground base),... for some reasons they still managed to build the Machines, then this Flying Base. Of course you can say the writer can do whatever he wants with his characters, but I just want to re-emphasize that these 3 are more than just joke/filler characters. After they got reverted back to babies, they truly become joke characters.

Douglas Murray

2:03 I should also mention that Goku stormed off to chase after Tambourine and knocked off the board with the kanji 武 (martial arts) which have a significant meaning to it. It's to euphemize that he has to put aside the principles of martial arts to give in to his anger/instinct, letting his anger/instinct to fuel his desire to avenge for his friend. Master Roshi said it was an order for Goku to stop and not chase after the killer without a plan (especially with an empty stomach), yet Goku ignored that order from his master. 16:00 that's the throne Grand Elder Guru sits as well as Piccolo Jr uses in DBS Super Hero.

Sorry! I wrote a long reply, but unfortunately, I'm not sure if it actually got posted due to its length! In short, I don't really have any resources I use! I have a great group of native Japanese friends I met online and have spent a lot of time with them for years, slowly picking up the language by just talking with them every day! So "immersion" is a great way of studying!! But I can give you the advice my Japanese friends give to their acquaintances who are also trying to learn English: It doesn't matter what you do to learn, as long as it's something you enjoy! That's the easiest way to absorb the information and learn quickly. I wish you luck in your studies!

Did anyone notice young roshi was floating at the 12:00 min mark when he was training

OG Dragon Ball characters were brave af. It still hurts a bit how they were treated in Z.
