Audio: English – Good, Tolerable, and Terrible and the Tiers Game


With the Audio:English series, PenguinTruth takes a critical look at the English

Synopsis: Goku wakes Kaio from his nap. He explains the situation on Earth and asks for him to find the Namekians. Kaio searches and finds their general direction.

Goku requests one of them come back to Earth with him and Mouri suggests Dende. The two teleport back to Kami’s palace. At the Kame House, a martial artist named Mr. Satan declares his intention to beat Cell on television, insisting that Cell is just using tricks. Goku teleports in and teleports back to Kami’s palace with Gohan and Kuririn, who are happy to see Dende again. Dende says that it will take 100 days to make new Dragon Balls. Popo produces a model of Shenron so the Dragon Balls can be revived immediately. Dende revives the Dragon Balls, which shine again. Everybody wonders about Goku’s casual attitude.
