Episode 71 - Titty Blast!
| 0 comments
Provocative title for a blog on DBZ, isn't it? If you know DBZ, you should immediately think of Master Roshi when you see a title like that.

Yamcha is fighting an invisible man. Crillen has an idea to help him and sends Goku to fetch Bulma and Master Roshi. In the video, Goku has just returned with Bulma and Master Roshi.

Crillen asks them to stand in specific spots. Bulma is facing away from the fight. Master Roshi is in front of Bulma looking towards the fighters. As the fight progresses, it moves towards the spectators. When they get close enough, Crillen pulls Bulma's to down to reveal her boobs.

When Master Roshi sees Bulma's boobs, his nose starts bleeding in that famous way they do. The blood shoots up in the air and covers the invisible man. Everyone can now see the invisble man because he is covered in blood. Yamcha beats him up.

The video is very large because the end of the fight is included. I thought people might want to see the event played out.

What happens here is related to real life. Master Roshi is the highest level of martial arts attainments. His body has changed as a result. One of the properties of his body as it is now is that females or sex cause him to lose control of his power.

When Master Roshi loses control of his power, it all rushes upwards into his head. The blood gushing from his nose is a metaphor for the energy rushing out of his body and into his head.

Please note how Master Roshi's body moves when this happens. The movements are not randomly drawn cartoon movements. They are movements based on the cartoonists understanding of real world martial arts and the effects it has on people.

This post is about Episode 70. There is gap from 56 I think it is to this post. That is not a mistake. Episode 56-70 are about Goku fighting the Red Ribbon Army. Almost the entire story arc is about guns and tanks and planes and armies. The kung fu teaching is minimal.


I wanted to reiterate the genesis and purpose of this blog since it has been so long since the first post.


I was using Dragonball as a way to demonstrate martial arts concepts to people. Many people said this was foolish. DBZ was only a cartoon. None of it was real.

My position was that the cartoon was created by Asian people who understood martial arts and martial arts theory. My claim was that the Asian people incorporated their real world knowledge of martial arts and martial arts theory into the cartoon. Various parts of the cartoon are based on real life martial arts.

The doubters would have none of it. They completely refused to accept this was possible.

This blog was set up to prove my point. In all of the examples up to this point, some of which are so obvious as to seem silly to even include in the blog, the point has been proven.

There are many instances of real life martial arts principles and theory laced throughout DBZ. A person could learn some basic ideas about martial arts from DBZ. It is legitimate to use the childs cartoon Dragonball Z in order to demonstrate real world martial arts.


This entry is a perfect example. In this video, Yamcha is fighting an invisible man. The invisible man beats Yamcha for awhile. Then Yamcha realizes that the invisible man must still be making noise. Yamcha then closes his eyes and concentrates on listening for the invisible man.

This is a common idea from martial arts. At high levels of martial arts in real life, the practitioner is supposed to be able to fight other people blindfolded.

Episode 53 - Paralyzed

This video clip is one of the dramatic over the top ones with lots of special effects. Goku has confronted General Blue at the pirate's underground lair. Goku hurt General Blue who is now angry. General Blue is going to use his special power which is to paralyze people with his eyes.

Of course all the special effects, the grunting and yelling etc should all be ignored. They are added to make the cartoon exciting to children. To make them understand it takes a lot of effort to use the special power.

The ability to paralyze someone is a real ability. It does not necessarily have anything to do with the eyes. A skilled martial arts person or perhaps any skilled person knowledgable about Asian philosophy can paralyze another person. It is not paralysis so much of a specific limb or area as it is an inability to move the entire body. To stand up or to walk.

This ability has a historical and cultural precedent. If you watch some old movies, they will show a strong man forcing another man to kneel down. The stronger man does this by his force of will or some other unspecified manner. This concept from movies is the same concept here.

A strong person has strong energy. A weak person is unable to withstand the pressure of the energy of a strong person. A strong person can apply their energy to the weak person and the weak person will uncontrollably kneel or fall down.

The process also happens with holy men. Instead of forcing people to kneel though, the energy of the holy man is such that the people have no choice but to kneel like they have no choice but to kneel when being forced in the other situation.

The video shows General Blue getting excited. Bulma tries to warn Goku. General Blue then paralyzes Goku
