I still can’t believe Toriyama named the villains for his final dragon ball arc after the magic words from Cinderella.
I mean his villains names are:
Rice
A series of colors
Musical instruments
Prince Vegetable
A freezer
The basic part of all human biology
So like, Cinderella is right in his wheelhouse.

Oh oh, I just came up with a fun stupid movie plot
Since the ancient three eyed people were said to have the power of gods, have their backstory be "they saw the future of their race and were dismayed of the destruction they caused across all universes, so they sealed themselves away and erased everyone else's memory of them, with only the Angels knowing their fate" or some bullshit
Then when they come back they see Goku and aghast that a Saiyan is living and on Earth so they power up the Human Z Fighters and order them to kill Goku and the other Saiyans, Tien and Krillin refuse. Cue punching.
They see the destruction they caused as they originally foresaw, see the error of their ways etc, Goku forgives them, maybe the leader kills himself to atone or something. Krillin and Tien are back to having a chance against Goku.
How they came back can be blamed on Goku somehow. It's always Goku's fault.

Isn't Rice Gohan?
IIRC Gohan just means food.
Pilaf is the rice pun.
“han” 飯 is the character for cooked grains (uncooked is a separate character, “kome” 米). As most poorer people typically subsisted primarily on grains, and especially rice for most of Chinese and Japanese recorded history, it has come to be used, by extension, as a general word for “meal”, especially in Japanese when combined with the honorific prefix “go” 御 (a verb in Chinese which means to “manage”, which in Japanese seems to be explicitly referential to the nature of the social relationship between a superior and a subordinate). Absent of other distinguishing markers or context, in both Japan and China it is assumed to mean white, cooked rice. Its literal meaning in Japanese is “cooked grain (to which I am subordinate)”, most likely in the sense that rice is responsible for the sustenance of much of the nation, and without it the speaker, and many thousands of others throughout history, would have starved.
And that’s more than you cared to know about the Japanese and Chinese languages!
Edit: in my experience in Taiwan in particular, 飯 (fan) is often contrasted with 麵 (mian), that is noodles. After being asked “Would you like to get something to eat?”, the follow up is typically “ Do you want rice or noodles?”
In England, "tea" can refer to both a beverage and a meal where that beverage may be consumed.
It's a magical place, England.
You have tea with lunch???!?
Me personally? No. Can't stand the stuff.
Hot, cold, sun, ice, sweet, unsweet... whatever other variations you can come up with, no thank you.
But it could be done, were a person so inclined.

Brown hair vegeta blows up Arlia with just two fuckin fingers and zero powering up.
This means brown hair vegeta was stronger than Frieza.
Humor can be dissected as a frog can, but dies in the process.

Im pretty sure Vegeta blew up way more than 1 planet.
It was basically his job.
No his job was to kill all the people so frieza could resell the planet.

I know Vegeta says the Galick Gun would blow up earth but honestly I think he was full of shit.

Has Frieza actually been shown completing a planet sale in anime/movie/manga?

That music hit at the end is just the best.
Also, isn’t Bulma some variation of bloomers?

it's "bloomers" run through an english-to-japanese translation and then back through a japanese-to-english translation.
Bloomers = bu ru ma zu > bu ru ma = bu lu ma > Bulma

Nope, just a dick.

There is some filler that show the Saiyans selling planets.
