最大の危機!!
Son Gokuu Saidai no Kiki!!
SON Gokuu's Greatest Crisis!!
USA 10/02/2003 The Biggest Crisis


The battle gets even more fierce, with Piccolo disabling one of Gokuu's legs, and most of the area getting destroyed.

Cut
(2 seconds) In the recap, when Piccolo punches Gokuu and there's a shot of Gokuu's face screaming, a shot of Gokuu still screaming while Piccolo is on camera is cut.
Other
Instead of completely cutting out when punches or kicks connect like in the previous few episodes, today FUNimation decided to just throw in flashes. Replacing the frame(s?) of animation containing the actual impact with solid white flashes (sometimes it's solid black). No footage is lost during these. I didn't notice these flashes before Season Four, so perhaps they didn't start doing this until now (I likely would have noticed if they'd done it before). There are so many of these stupid flashes, it would be annoying as hell to document them all. But know that if you see them on Cartoon Network, they weren't there originally.
Cut
(6 seconds) Just after the commercial break, a clip of Piccolo's red blood dripping on the ground is cut.
Alteration
Post commercial Piccolo has blood painted off of his face. It's dripping from his nose and mouth, until he wipes it away with his hand. The dub always leaves in when they wipe their faces, but the person is always wiping away absolutely nothing.
