Dragon Ball ep 5 - Yamcha, The Strong Yet Cruel Desert Bandit
Goku and Bulma are joined by Oolong in this episode of Dragon Ball. Oolong is reluctant to take part in the adventure, but a clever combination of panty temptation, a strong-arming Son Goku, and a PP Candy (which gives the eater - Oolong, in this case - explosive diarrhea whenever he hears "pee pee") keeps the former tyrant in check.

Dragon Ball ep 1 - Bulma and Son Goku
Ahhh, that first episode feel. Are you refreshed? I'm refreshed.

First!
Ossu! Ore Goku!
Okay. Enough of that.
Welcome to Dragon Blog, in which I watch (and post about) every episode, movie, special, anything, in the Dragon Ball universe. My goal is to watch an episode every day, but we'll see how it turns out. I don't really expect anyone to be reading this, but on the off chance my future children are reading this now as they mourn my passing; I'm so, so sorry you have my genes.
I can't help it. I don't want to help it. I love Dragon Ball. Some people really love Star Trek. I'm like the Trekker (not Trekkie, they get mad about that - nerds) for Dragon Ball. But since Baller is already taken by another group of people, we're going to simply call me Biba Sen'nin.
Why Biba Sen'nin? Because like Kame Sen'nin and Tsuru Sen'nin before me, I am a wise hermit who specializes in an animal-inspired martial arts. In my case, the noble beaver.
I've been watching Dragon Ball since 1998, when the series was airing in syndication on Cartoon Network's Toonami block. I watched (and subsequently rewatched, a lot) the Saiyan and Namek Sagas as they aired. I began to watch the show in Japanese (picking up at the end of the Freeza Saga) on International Channel. I don't speak Japanese, and I certainly didn't when I was 11 - but I ate up every minute of the show. I eagerly purchased VHS versions of the show as they were released (including the original FUNi dub of Dragon Ball), and followed the shows progress on Cartoon Network and International Channel simultaneously (with a few episodes of Mexican DBZ on Univision for good measure.)
I've played about half of the video games released since 2000 (there's been a lot of them...), and I followed Dragon Ball Kai with its Japanese television release. My love of Dragon Ball has not waned from when I was a wide-eyed 11-year-old boy taken in by Son Goku's struggle against good and evil. If anything, it has enhanced. But through all my rewatching of the Dragon Ball trilogy (DB, DBZ, DBGT, and I suppose DBKai now...) I've never watched it from the beginning to Dragon Ball, to the ending of DBGT.
That is the purpose of this blog.
If all goes well, I should like to do DBKai and the movies, specials, etc too.
But if I make it through a year without a big lapse in updates, someone owes me a pizza party.
Okay. Enough of that.
