Differences from the Anime & MangaEdit

• The way Goku catches a fish in the beginning is different. He catches it by screaming loud instead of using his tail as bait. The fish he catches is also normal sized and not a Giant Fish.
• Bulma doesn't run Goku over, instead she meets Goku when the car is parked.
• Bulma shoots Goku with a Sub-Machine Gun resembling an MP5A3 or A5 (likely airsoft) instead of a pistol when they meet.
• Instead of lifting Bulma's skirt up to see if she has a tail, he grabs her bottom. Bulma also offers to let Goku touch her bottom at his house but she doesn't lift up her skirt.
• The Dragon Radar flips open and has more than one button.
• The Pterodactyl Goku fights is replaced with a human wearing some form of a robot suit.
  • Goku defeats him differently as well. Instead of using Bulma's Motorcycle to fly up and hit him with the Power Pole, he simply battles him in a normal fight.

TriviaEdit

• The Dragon Radar is a custom Nintendo Game & Watch.
• At Bulma's house, a clip of the anime is seen on the TV.
• This film shows Puar smoking. This is the very first time Puar smokes.
