The publisher argued against aging the characters because they thought teen/adult Goku wouldn't have appealing adventures like kid Goku. When they let Goku grow into an adult, Dragonball's popularity grew faster than ever.

[@samuelzuleger5134]

It was apparently quite the fight between Toriyama and his publishers because manga/anime characters rarely aged in shonen prior to Dragon Ball.

[@soyakat]

The fact that Toriyama was threatening them with leaving the series if they dont let him draw adult Goku is so crazy, aging mcs was not common at all back then

We have ALL I've been waiting for you to see this episode. You are absolutely going to love this last part, I'm certain of it! And yeah you're right, Krillen and yamcha actually never saw King Piccolo. Also, King piccolo never actually wore a turban. I think the turbane was an attempt to go undercover, as he's known as Ma junior during this tournament.

[@MeelogMalterion]

Piccolo JR showing up is still one of my favourite Scenes of All Time, watching for the first time its unclear how Evil he is but him Saving That Kid and His Mom then just stepping on the present perfectly captures where his Mind is At, he wants to Get Revenge by beating Goku, but unlike his Father JR wants to Rule the world not destroy it, because JR never got sealed away and came to fear Martial Arts like his father

[@majinnemesis]

wait until she finds out who else enters the tournament

[@JazzMaster01]

Krillin being so grateful for his best friend bringing him back to life❤ back before Vegeta showed up. But i mean. Vegeta may be Goku's "best friend/rival" Krilling has always stayed his true best friend

[@nerdydrawer7265]

I think the reveal of Goku all grown up is better in the dub because of the fact that he has a different voice actor doing him now that he’s older. In the Japanese, you would have immediately recognized Goku’s voice. But here, it’s completely different. It’s only when he starts referring to the others as he usually did that they (and the audience) realize it’s Goku

[@bensenzo]

Yeah in sub he sounds like an old woman when he's a kid and sounds like an old woman when he's grown. Weird

[@Paul-zg8fn]

In the original dubbing, Goku said that kami sama was the one who cut off his tail

@@StEvUgnIn yes, the Viz translation of the manga stays much closer to the original save for a few instances

He's still saying the same thing just in different ways. He's saying Kami told him he'll restore the moon if he let's him cut his tail. You don't really think a moon can just come back by itself?😅

[@lankancheetah]

You gotta remember Krillin only ever saw Tambourine before he got killed. He never actually saw Piccolo or even know of his minions.

[@cardosutoro9]

But there were pictures and videos of King Piccolo all over the place, it's hard to believe he didn't see anything from him somewhere

[@lordhelmetheadproductions]

@@cardosutoro9 the z fighters have never been known to just watch tv or keep up with social media or news. Most of the time they're off training in the woods or mountains. which sometimes makes them naive to what's happening. Usually, Bulma and the gang are watching tv when the big fights happen later in Z.

Be glad Melom that ur seeing King piccolo spit out an egg, thats courtroom worthy evidence that Piccolo is a Yoshi

[@thecoffeemainiak5400]

To clarify what happened with Goku's tail. Kami never restored the moon after Roshi destroyed it because if he did then Goku may have transformed again and caused massive damage. When Goku was training with Popo, Kami removed Goku's tail in a special way to prevent it from ever growing back. Once the tail was removed there was no danger of Goku transforming again so Kami restored the moon (presumably with the dragon balls).

[@dvader518]

And then he grew it back in GT.

[@Hulkzilla0]

[@YungandRekless545]

I like the subtlety of Sean Schemmel's portrayal of Teen Goku. It's pitched slightly higher than his usual performace.

[@stardmg]

he variates it a lot, like you say it's deeper in general when he gets older, and then when he's in Super Saiyan 3 (and 4 in GT) or whenever he gets serious in Dragon Ball Super Sean deepens it even more and adds more grit to it

how do you want to be at 18 years old,12 year at first tournament ,15 at second and this is 3year later natural progression of the show .

[@ApinofArc]

Whats great, is this is mirrored in the manga. Throughout the series at each tournament, toryiama had given goku the same pose. And each time you can actively see the size difference in goku. People like to say toriyama didnt have a good memory, but he was still really good at these kind of small details.

Seeing you so full of joy is wonderful! This truly is one of the most wonderful episodes. I recommend watching it in Japanese eventually because its really better that way. Also, getting Masako Nozawas Goku is just great.

[@christianlopez707]

On the whole moon being restored thing, what happened is that Kami wanted to put the moon back together but he knew that Goku would transform if he did. So he told Goku that he needed to get rid of his tail to do it.

[@Tony-ssj769]

You should watch OG Dragon ball Z in japanese after watching this, I have seen alot of the mainstream anime and subbed DBZ to me is a masterpiece both in story and voice acting, I never liked the English version except certain Bruce Falconer music tracks like Vegeta and Shenlong's theme. Also if you watch the subbed version, Dragon ball Z makes alot more sense as Goku eventually learns why his tail was removed as noone ever told him about the Oozaru transformation.

The only caracthers here who knows how King Piccolo is are Master Roshi, Chaoz, Tien and Goku!

IDK if you plan to watch this or not but a good Anime i think you should watch is Yu Yu Hakusho

[@Tuning3434]

Well, Goku was already considerably larger during the King Piccolo arc, actual having arms where he was kind of a ball during the first tournament. And believe it or not, this is not Goku's full lenght, he is still not long as Yamcha and still dwarfed by Tien. He grew pretty tall when reappearing during Z, when he is one of the taller ones of the group, only beaten by Tien and Piccolo Jr.

[@Mari_Izu]

Toriyama just tends to make limbs longer during combat (which is why he wanted to make Goku grow so much, because it's hard to draw fights with characters being so short), we also see this with Gohan vs Cell, he's super jacked while fighting then, when everyone was at Kami's Lookout reviving everyone, he's almost half the size.

[@rocketmanart7964]

Piccolo Jr. was evil like his father but much stronger than Kami and King Piccolo.

[@purpleisthesneakiest]

That little comment Goku made - that "the moon could be restored if [he] lost [his] tail," is believed to refer to Kami having struck a bargain with Goku (I'll bring the moon back, but only if we get rid of the thing that makes you turn into a giant unstoppable monster when you see it). Goku did not understand why until the Saiyan Saga, when he saw Vegeta transform. This is very widely accepted to be true, but I haven't actually been able to find a source on it. Regardless, it's the most reasonable explanation.

Sadly we have to say goodbye to Stephanie Nadolny as Kid Goku. But now we finally get Sean Schemmel as Adult Goku. And the reunion of Goku and Krillin was so heartwarming.

[@AnActualDinosaur]

In Japanese, Goku's voice actress is the same as a kid and as a grown-up, which is why I think to sub watchers Goku still feels like "our sweet little monkey boy" even when he grows up or achieves godhood and stuff in Super. Not saying that him growing up wasn't a shock, but then he opens his mouth and you go "oh, that's still Goku!", cause it's the same voice.

[@Mari_Izu]

@@countprophet5881 I don't know if they thought about replacing her, but she was THE VA Toriyama handpicked for Goku, so he would likelly fight if they wanted to recast her. Almost all kid characters retained their VAs too.

This is the episode that makes you miss little kid Goku, enjoying that warm reunion and at the same time feeling nostalgic. Believe me, this episode hits hard when you're in your 12-13's when you are morphing into a teenager, when everyone are exited to grow up but at the same time miss your old little self while watching this exact episode. Personal experience, and from other classmates too.

While it's very subtle, goku actually did grow a little throughout the series. If you look closely and compare his design in the king piccolo arc and the 1st 2 arcs, you can see he's a little taller and leaner.

Something I find amusing is that you can hear Masako Nozawa trying real hard to make her voice sound deeper this episode now that she's playing an adult man, however it then starts to mellow out over the next few episodes into the Adult Goku we all know.

[@albertmas3752]

Just bullshit translation. Kami decided to erase his tail so the moon could be restored. No tail, no crazy giant monkey. Goku at this point STILL doesn't know why and only knows about it when he fights Vegeta for the first time. How can Krilin and Yamcha recognise Piccolo if they never saw him? Yamcha just had a glimpse of Piccolo on TV but Krilin was DEAD the whole time.

[@Acerthorn]

16:10 - 16:37 To be fair, neither Krillin nor Yamcha ever actually laid eyes on Piccolo. Krillin was only killed by Tambourine, not Piccolo, and Yamcha arrived at the battlefield right as Piccolo was defeated. So neither of them actually fully know what Piccolo looks like. Tien is the only one to have faced Piccolo in person, so it makes sense that he's the only one among them who would recongize that Jr. looks familiar.

[@bensenzo]

Yamcha saw him on TV

[@stevenoconnor3256]

At this point in the show, Piccolo is still a member of the Demon Clan so the anime/dub calling him an alien at this point is stupid. Remember the god of Earth is an alien. Being an alien in Dragon Ball does not stop you from being a demon.

I think the reason goku’s growth feels so drastic is because he looks his age where as up till now he’s look much younger than he actually was for instance when goku fought king piccolo he was over 3 years older than gohan was when he fought cell yet you’d think it was the opposite just from looking at them
