7:30 True but Nen, Chakra, Ki in anime are inspired by Chi in Chinese Wuxia novels which had a huge impact on early anime like Fist of the North Star and Dragonball. If you read a Wuxia novel from 1950s (which were well known even in Japan), you can see all the similar tropes that mold Shōnen tropes today.
Nen, Chakra, and spiritual pressure were loosely inspired by ki control in Dragon Ball. A lot of shonen series after Dragon Ball were heavily inspired.
We all think of carpentry when we hear Nail but it's actually conceived as Snail without the S to fit the naming scheme. In the manga the Elder is the first to mention "Super Saiyan." Nappa said it earlier but it was written generically since Nappa meant powerful Saiyans. This is the first time it appears as it does for the rest of the franchise.
Guru: "There I have unlocked your potential." Krillin: "...I don't feel that different." Guru: "...It wasn't that much." Krillin: "Huh? So this is my full potential?" Guru: "Yes." Krillin: "...so then it's..." Guru: "All down hill from here." Krillin: "Like Yamcha." Guru: "I don't who who this "Yamcha" but he sounds like a disappointment."

@9:23 Lol no but why does Frieza sound like someone's boss/manager in real life? The tone and delivery of his lines are unmatched
I remember watching Kai when I was twelve and enjoying the sh*t outta this show. Glad you guys are watching it. Nice to watch it with you.
We’re glad you’re enjoying it! Happy to have ya 🥰
I don’t recall what Guru says during DBZ Kai, but in original DBZ, I believe he drops important info about the power of Kami/Piccolo
Gohan, maybe 5 years old, but he is way stronger than his father was in Dragon Ball.
Goku grew up in the woods with no former education

The Nemek arc is really good.
We’re loving it.
Freiza is so cold, it's like he was named for it...
Sheeeeeesh 😮💨🖤
3:07 I think that nail is too big to store in that storage unit.
