Why is it so hard to find clothing (especially underclothes and pants) that fucking fit.
Like, I know part of the problem is that I’ve gained a lot of weight in the last 10 years and I have a lot of baggage around it. But. Why. Don’t. Things. Fit.
I have tried to order binders from underworks multiple times and they never fit. I have bought like 6 underwire bras in the last few months that were all wrong. I looked at r/abrathatfits but the size they gave me seems implausible to say the least.
Things I like aren’t made to fit people my size. I am wasting money like a water mill trying to make things fit me
I hate having a body. I want to be able to manifest clothing on my body.

Team ALAN: Lovely In-CON-veniences
Part 3 of Team ALAB commissions for @the-hapless-ace
This was a mistake.
When you join a terrorist organization, you have to learn how to sense danger before it occurs. You either learn to do it early or have to learn from experiences, sometimes not without the loss of some limbs and sanity. Adam should have know that when Ruby burst into their room with that creepy smile of hers, he should have run and hidden for a week or two.
The Vale Comic Con was an event not unknown to Adam, if only because he once considered it as a potential target for White Fang attack. And no, it wasn't because of the overwhelming amount of Ninja Catgirl cosplayers there. He simply hated the fetishism with reagrds to the faunus. Rehardless of that, he absolutely refused to go.
Unfortunately, he owed Weiss a date of her choosing. And just like the real Schnee, she refused to suffer alone.
"Oh my Gods, can we please take a picture?"
The decision came last moment. And since |Ruby refused to allow him to go there in his normal clothes, he had to make do with whatever stuff he had lying around. His old cloak without the rose emblem. His old mask without color marks. And of course, the black wig provided to him by Blake. Apparently, his ex couldn't miss the chance to get some laughs out of it.
"You look just like the Joker!"
"The clown?"
"No, from Persona series!"
"Ah, right."
He had no idea who that was. In a couple of moments, thankfully, that humiliation was over. Before he could get back to Weiss to give her another piece of his mind though, another couple of girls approached him. More pictures? Fine, whatever got that off his back.
"Can you take a rose from my hands with your mouth?"
Sure, whatever. Quickly, he did as asked. The girl ran away squealing.
"Can you cover your eyes with your hands, please?"
She did promise him to leave quickly so why not. The girl wandered off smiling.
"Can I sit in your lap?"
"Yeah, su-"
The ground shook. The air around them dropped a few degrees in temperature before the wall of ice separated him from the surprisingly large crowd of women. Were they under attack? Finally! Some chance to escape this madhouse and-
"Adam. Taurus."
The chilling and emotionless tone pierced through the air, his eyes drawn towards the source of it. Surrounded by ice and snow, in the middle of the hall stood none other than his girlfriend. And she was absolutely burning with rage, if only the giant Knight of white and blue looming over her was any indication.
"I leave for a few seconds and you are feeling up some other girls?"
What?
"I didn't do anything like that!" Was it really how it looked? He was just trying to get them off his back. It was either caving in to their demands or cutting them down. And it was her and Ruby that explicitly forbade him from killing the people he found annoying. "You know this is not my fault, right?"
Something clicked in Weiss' eyes. The semblance of clearance and understanding that promised him the peaceful resolution and the quiet for the rest of this already unpleasant and annoying day.
That promise died an ugly death as the girl's eyes lost any and all light and her lips stretched into an ugly smile.
One that promised only bloodshed and death.
"You are right... This is not your fault at all."
Good, maybe things weren't so bad.
"It is all these harlots that want you!"
...
Shit.
ALAB
"Yang, are you angry at me?"
"No."
"You look angry."
"I don't."
"Your hair is on fire and your eyes are burning red."
"And?"
Ren looked at his girlfriend's face, wondering what he should say. What he could even say when faced with this angry pout of hers. In many ways. Yang was just as emotionally broken as he was. She hid her abandonment issues and insecurities behind the cocky attitude and pride much like he hid his anger and pain behind the stoic and serene attitude.
But no matter how much they masked their fears and insecurities, those still existed and sometimes came to the surface in the most unfortunate of times. Just like their current situation.
"Sorry for getting us kicked out of that contest," Yang said as they sat down in a nearby cafe. It was a nice place and, thankfully, with only a few people. It was pretty early right now so most attendees must have been stuck buying merch and meeting all the celebrities that were here today. "I know I could have handled that... better than I did."
That was one way to put it.
Ren had little reservations about his body. And even though he was embarrassed with the outfit Yang picked for him, he grew comfortable with it very quickly. Yang herself said she wanted to show off her boyfriend's amazing body in that skintight outfit that consisted of only a shirt that covered his chest and a tight pair of shorts. And she did enjoy the jealous and hungry looks thrown his way.
For a total of ten minutes before she started frantically looking for something to cover him with.
She found nothing and so spent the last hour or so glaring at every woman that passed them by. It was fine, Ren told himself. Glaring and growling was fine as long as things didn't become physical. They eventually did, mostly because he couldn't help himself. Ren rarely indulged in things like video games or junk food like his friends. But when the chance to get the next edition of his favorite game came, he simply couldn't let this chance pass him by.
So he signed up even though Yang wasn't interested and got ready to win. It was all good and great for the first two stages. He was in the lead and, by the looks of it, would be coming home with the prize in his hand.
Then the third stage announced was the couple game. And unfortunately, for all the single ladies and gentlemen, they were paired up with random contestant. It was clear the stage was meant to see who could adapt the fastest and give the most coherent performance. He was lucky to draw the second strongest contestant for himself.
Who turned out to be Neon, the girl Yang fought just a few days ago.
He could have sworn he heard something snap. And when he looked at Yang... Well, he told himself she wouln't do anything drastic in the open.
And for the first few minutes, he was actually right. Their dance was energetic and synchronized, him acting as the strong and solid foundation for Neon's more flashy and bright moves.
The music came to an end, the crowd exploded with claps and whistles. They were going to win, for sure. That game was as good as his!
Then Neon delivered a loud and sharp slap across his ass.
And next thing he knew, the dancing contest turned into a huge catight.
"Ren?"
"Hmm?"
"Are you angry at me?"
"No."
"You look... Well, I never can tell but I would be angry if I were you."
"I am not though," a little bit upset. But not angry. "Plus, I am sure you are not going to-"
She was gone.
He turned to look at the trail of blazes left behind. The sound of an all too familiar laugh of one rollerblading huntress was the proof enough his day was about to become much louder and hotter.
ALAB
Mercury loved to drive the little Red crazy.
Call him an asshole but there was something incredibly satisfying about watching the girl so confident on the battlefield turn into a blushing stammering mess. Sometimes he would kiss her out in the open or flirt with her during the spar. She looked so cute when she was trying to take his head off with that scythe of hers while burning red as her cape.
Today was an exception, though.
Today it was him on the other end of the stick.
"C-Come on, Red, be reasonable here, please?" He was backed against the wall, the passers-by either ignoring them or taking pictures. Something about real-life Yandere of whatever the fuck those nimrods were whispering about. "R-Ruby, I swear to Gods, stay away from me with that marker!"
She dressed up as some superhero named... Flasher or whatever, he didn't pay much mind. He did, however, take the opportunity to show off his assets and get the girl all hot and bothered under that skintight suit of hers. Seriously, for the girl with so many reservations and social troubles, she seemed unaware of how many guys threw horny looks her way.
He did. And now those guys stayed far away from her.
Apparently, she was not as oblivious as he thought and noticed all the lustful and hungry looks. But only the ones that came from other girls towards him. Which brings us back to him, backed into the corner with his girlfriend trying to mark him of all things!
"I will be quick, Mercury, I promise!"
"That's a permanent marker, Ruby!"
"I am sure we can remove it later!"
"This doesn;t make it better!"
In hindsight, it was all his fault. He should have chosen something that could be actually zipped up. Instead he went dressed as this emo ninja with weird eyes powers who dressed like a stripper. And now Ruby wanted to write her name on his chest like some toy.
Sounded kinky but it wasn't!
"I will buy a bunch of strawberry cookies a-!"
"No!" She yelled, covering her ears. "You can't bribe if I can't hear you!"
An opening to exploit! Yes!
He rushed past her and into the crowd. Maybe he could snatch someone's cape or something? Before he could rob some poor sucker, the torpedo of rose petals smashed into him from behind. Positioning herself on the top of his stomach, Ruby showed no hesitation or shame as she breathed down his neck.
With the eyes full of the terrifying emotion and her smile so hollow it sent chills down his smile, Ruby whispered:
"Now they all will know you are mine and only mine!"
Her marker stabbed into his chest like a knife, marking him as her property and lover.
Somehow, he didn' feel so scared about it.
"Now let's go and show them all that you are mine!"
... And now he was.
ALAB
"Go and tell her she is ugly."
"I am not doing that."
"Fine, then the collar stays on."
"Ugh..."
Out of his entire team, Jaune was possibly the only one excited to come here. He never attended one of the major conventions since, well, his town didn't have any and he barely had the money to come here. So when Ruby won the total of eight passes here, he was ready to kiss her! Well, not really, since she was dating Mercury and that was violation of a bro code.
Also because he also had a girlfriend whom he liked a lot
Even if she could become a bit... possessive.
"Come on, this doesn't even make any sense for me to wear a collar! I am Leon Kennedy!" And Leon Kennedy was a badass that could never stay caught for that long. "Also Ada uses a giant crossbow and your weapon looks nothing like that."
"I don't give a shit, it was the costume the guy in the store recommended," Vernal scoffed as she tugged on his leash. Her eyes scanned the crowd like an expert predator. She saw a couple of nerds drooling over how tight the pants hugged her legs and ass. Heh, good time jerking off, losers. Then her eyes caught some girls drooling over how tight Jaune's pants hugged his ass and legs.
...
They would have to go. Not now, of course. Her boyfriend always got upset whenever she threatened other girls with violence, Gods know why though.
"V-Vernal, where are we going?"
"Just shut up and follow me, loverboy."
Vernal might have lived in Beacon now but she still lived by the laws of her tribe. And the law of the strong was simple back home: See. Want. Take.
The last part - about putting down anyone who tried to take something from you - was an unspoken rule, of course. Back in the tribe, it was the strongest who got the best food and stuff. Not because they were better at scavenging and stealing, but rather because they knew how to take something from others better. And Vernal knew that, if she allowed even one of the girls here approach her boyfriend, she would give everyone the signal she was soft.
Not happening.
"And now for the second place in our couples costu- Hey, ma'am, you are not supposed to-Oh! Wait, not in the face! Not in the face!"
The silence fell over the crowd.
All eyes were on them,
Vernal took the mic.
Jaune covered his face.
"Alright, listen up, all of you! I know that most of you here are losers with nothing better to do than dress up as leather-clad morons and bitches and think you are cool because you watched some Mistralian cartoons with lots of yelling. I also know that at least eighty per cent of you are fucking virgins desperate to get some and watching some camgirls dress up like your favorite cartoon girls drives you nuts," she ignored the death glares thrown her way. Jaune yelped as Vernal dragged him up and planted a deep wet kiss on his lips, invading his mouth with her tongue for the crowd to see. "Having said that, neither me nor MY boyfriend here are as lame you all. And if I see any of you bitches looking at my fucking man, remember-"
She spread her arms, showing her toned body for people to drink in.
"- this is what he enjoys every night. Remember that before looking at him next time!"
Vernal dropped the mic.
Then she grabbed him by the collar and began passionately marking him as hers.
Regardless of that, Jaune would cry as he would later find out he was banned from this convention for the foreseeable future.
Just like the rest of his and RWBY teams.

​The 100 Aesthetic/Preferences Tag
Tagged by: @blodreina-noumou ty babe!!
This is a tag game about AESTHETICS, not content, plot, characterization, etc. Just keep that in mind.
Rank the seasons from favorite to least favorite:
2 > 1 > 3 > 5 > 4 (me, petty: *won’t even put 6 on the ranking*)
2 - I think 2 has Octavia’s best look, very ‘Grounder In Training’ which was really really cute lol. Then there was the beginning of Clarke’s desent into grime, from pristine princess to getting weighed down with the dirt of her own emotions and percieved obligations and I liked to see it.
1 - everyone is clean and baby-faced and it reminds me of a simpler time. Was a fan of guard!Bellamy hair gel and all, it really brought out the douche in him. This season has my favourite Raven (she GLOWS) and Clarke Sky Babe looks. Jasper’s goggles. Dropship site was iconic.
3 - I appreciated the grimy aesthetic of season three because they really committed to the Goin’ Thru It.
The drastic shift in Jasper’s look was something I really liked. His boyish features are gone and now merely a ghost of innocence remains, in it’s place we have a more mature, hardened demeanor in the form of facial hair and a lack of cute, floppy hairstyle.
5 - we got the spacekru ‘clan’ look! In previous seasons we’ve seen clans have markers indicating who they belong to, Trikru with their earthy colours and wearing leaves, Azgeda with their furs and white paints, and Floukru with their ocean imagery, and now we see the survivors of apocalypse in their bluish-grey space tones styled in a way that makes it absolutely clear they’re all apart of the same group. We see a new headscarf for Emori, still very much herself but refashioned. And no glove! She’s completely comfortable with her new family. The scarf was very unique to her character so someone tell me why after all this they completely threw it out for season 6? Oh yeah it’s because season 6 isn’t real, it didn’t happen, I do Not See It.
All the boys glo-ed up. Loved that. All the girls started wearing their hair looser, Raven has her two strands sneaking out of her signature ponytail- she still very much looks like ‘Raven’ but everyone just in general looks more relaxed, like they’ve had a breather. In terms of the world, I loved the stark differences in the three main locations, and every one of them felt haunting but in different ways. Ghost lands. The wasteland of 5 was almost reminicent of the desert back in season 2, now devistated. The bunker was suffocating and chilling. The valley felt weirdly sinister in all it’s colours.
4 - eventually everyone looked peak skaikru, no longer delinquents in their various multi-coloured bomber jackets, marking their youth, but fully-fledged members of their group. I liked the way s4 almost paralleled s1 in look, they’re all wearing the same colours, but while they are all technically clean, they still look less presentable and exhausted compared to S1. Bellamy, again, like in season 1, is in his guard uniform but it’s more an upgraded and more mature version. In a way it looked like we came full circle. And Clarke and Octavia both going back to a more skaigirl hairstyle was the cherry on top. Luna’s costumes are probably my favourites on the entire show. I have no idea how we went from costumes of such intricasy and consistency to...’what in the name of halloween store clearance sale is that?’ in season 6.
6 - sanctum’s costumes were literally so ugly i don’t even wanna talk about it please don’t make me do it...
Tumblr media
ok i go
1) Controversial ik but Emori’s Prime dress missed the mark. I liked the addition of the cape, but, again, it was so bare otherwise. There was no embroidery, no jewels, and the accessories they did give her were clunky and looked cheap. It looked too prom night. She was supposed to be royalty. And she didn’t look like it at all.
2) Absolutely hated the fact they put a pound of makeup on each of the space sisters’ faces. And the fact they gave them all unnaturally curled hair. Meanwhile Clarke and Octavia still somewhat look natural and ordinary so...what’s going on? And why?
Rank Clarke’s hair each season from best to worst:
1 > 6 > 2 > 4 > 5 > 3
some thoughts;
Not a fan of her season 4 hair, and i can’t articulate my dislike very well but why’d her roots get so dark? She never had dark roots in season 1, this character is a natural blonde, and yet over the seasons they became progressively darker and tbh? It started to irritated me. Also I don’t think the cut framed her face quite right? SOMETHING okay? Something about it......
Rank Bellamy’s hair/beard each season from best to worst:
3 > 1,2,4,6 < 5
The real debate: Bellamy in the blue shirt or the tan?
They both look the same to me. lol. Blue.
Clarke’s blue dress or pink dress?
Neither. Both weren’t very good looking. If you were holding me at gun point I’d say blue, but the cut did the opposite of help. And if they were gonna have a moment where Clarke, oblivious to her own *ethereal beauty* and not like the other girls, walks down the stairs ready to throw her hair into a messy bun and get sold to One Direction, they could’ve at least put her in a more suitable dress. Something a bit more glamourous, sophisticated, something to justify the 10 people in the room staring up at her in awe. It’s such a casual, tasteless dress? And she isn’t even wearing shoes? She isn’t wearing anything shiny, she didn’t do anything to her hair. We saw what other dresses and accessories Delilah had in her closet, the yellow and pink soft-flowing, feminine classy dresses and the pretty headwear she wore in her own short time in the season. But you give Clarke, your protagonist, that unflattering one? One that she so clearly hastily threw on and headed out in? She got two outfit changes, while none of the other main girls got any at all, and they were both ugly LIKE what was even the point?
Favorite Raven season: Her season 1 baby face just cannot be beat, she looks beautiful. And I only use that word very particularly.
Raven’s ark vest or red bomber jacket?
how about that red popper shirt from season 4
Raven’s ponytail or her s6 look?
Ponytail. It’s Raven. S6 look betrayed what her character was about.
Favorite Octavia season: 2! I love the baby grounder look.
Octavia’s hair in s2 (the braids) or s4 (the ponytail)?
The braids just because they were more interesting to look at.
Blodreina or Skairipa?
Blodreina. Like I said somewhere up there ^ that whole costume was a breath of fresh air.
Favorite Murphy season: S5!
Murphy with long hair or short hair?
I appreciated the rat boy look while it lasted, but the short hair makes him look good, while his other hairstyles pretty much were just there to contribute to the climate of his character.
Favorite Monty season: 5. Bout time they made him look grown. He’s actually a pretty ruthless and passive aggressive kid, the fact he looked so sweet in previous seasons really tricked a lot of the fanbase into believing he was some tiny cinnamon roll.
Favorite overall episode: I’m awful at seperating episodes. I just can’t do it lol
Favorite scene of all time: I just don’t have the best memory for these things. I quite liked the reveal of Blodreina, the transition is takes from Cooper in the very first arena fight to current day, and it switches from blue to red, and slowly reveals Blodreina. The music change gave me chills. Everything about the scene just felt really dark and eery. I was uncomfortable. And I loved it.
Biggest wish for s7: Visually/aesthetically, decide which style you’re going for. I’ve said this before somewhere but Sanctum was a confusing mess of sci-fi, royal, prom night, and divergent amity. Pick one and get back to me.
I want a better designed world. I want all the set and costume designers to actually communicate and work together to make the world look like something professional and not a cosplay convention on a cheap set with a big paper mache castle.
Also I’d love for all the girls to not be all dolled-up. Give Raven her ponytail back, I’ll even settle for the low pony. Give Emori her headscarf back. And go get them all some face wipes. Maybe give someone other than Clarke an oppurtunity to wear something besides their murder gear. And maybe make that something actually good looking. Put some effort in. Sheesh.
I don’t follow many people and most of the ones I do are hibernating lol. I fully encourage someone to steal this. But in the meantime: @johnmurphysreddit​ @awesomenell65​

Dragon Ball Z 205
Tumblr media
Last episode-- OH SHIT THAT PLANE IS CRASHING!
Tumblr media
Nevermind, Saiyaman’s got it.
Tumblr media
Since this is DBZ, the story is covered on a gigantic TV screen.   
Tumblr media
The press asks Great Saiyaman for a statement, so he hops on top of the plane and gives them one.
Tumblr media
But his statement is to just do a goofy pose and introduce himself, like he always does.
Tumblr media
Even small children are put off by Great Saiyaman’s antics.    I feel like characters in this show are too hard on Great Saiyaman, but I suppose I’m biased on account of I know he’s Gohan under the suit, and Gohan’s last story arc saw him become King Badass of the Universe when he killed Perfect Cell.    He’s entitled to act like a goofy goober, but this little girl doesn’t know that.  
Tumblr media
Anyway, Gohan head to Bulma’s place once again to tell her about how he got roped into entering the 25th Tenkaichi Budokai, one month from now.   Videl figured out Gohan’s secret identity, and that he’s the son of former Budokai winner Son Goku, so she’s blackmailing him into entering the tournament against her.  
Tumblr media
Nice shot of Bulma lighting up.  
Tumblr media
Anyway, Bulma thinks he’s here looking for improvments on his disguise, but actually, Gohan’s decided that there’s no getting around Videl’s demands, so all he needs is a way to cover his face.    See, body armor is illegal in the Budokai, so Gohan can’t wear his full costume there.
Tumblr media
One jump cut later, and Bulma has the solution: a bandana and a pair of sunglasses.  Sometimes, part of being a genius is knowing when to go low-tech.
Tumblr media
Bulma laments the pointlessness of Gohan entering the tournament, since he won’t have any true competition there, what with him being a Super Saiyan and all, and then Vegeta walks in and invites himself to the tournament.    I guess he wants to beat up Videl too?    Oh, wait, he wants to fight Gohan.    Couldn’t he have just asked him for a match?   They didn’t have to wait for an event.   
Tumblr media
Trunks is all psyched up for this, of course.  
Tumblr media
Then Goku announces that he’ll enter too.    Wait, what?
Tumblr media
Remember back in the Fortuneteller Baba Saga, where Grandpa Gohan got special clearance to return to the living world for one day?   Well, Goku’s entitled to the same privelige, and he’s decided to cash it in for this tournament.   
Tumblr media
Trunks asks whose voice they’re hearing, but no one answers him.    Vegeta’s too exicted to get another shot at his old rival.
Tumblr media
And Bulma’s still riding the nicotine high.
Tumblr media
Gohan suggests that Vegeta get a costume like his own to protect his privacy and Vegeta hates that idea.    He’s practically a shut-in anyway, so what’s the difference?
Tumblr media
I feel bad for Trunks getting left out of all of this.   
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Here’s a cameo by Farmer With Shotgun, which I don’t really get, since he was killed in Episode 1, and I’m pretty sure he wasn’t brought back to life.    Then again, this is hardly the weirdest cameo in this episode.
Tumblr media
On his way to tell the others about Goku coming back for the tournament, Gohan discovers a car chase and tries to intervene...
Tumblr media
... only to discover that he’s actually wandered into the filming of a movie.
Tumblr media
And the director is Commander Red, who’s been dead for nearly a quarter-century.   Is this supposed to be his reincarnation?   I kind of doubt it.    I think it’s just a callback gag, but you never know.   Weird to see him without his eyepatch, though.
Tumblr media
As it happens, this movie they’re filming is about the Great Saiyaman, which seems rather sudden, but oh well.    I dig the doe-eyed lady they randomly slapped on the poster.  
Tumblr media
However, the guy they have playing the title character is afraid of heights, so he can’t film the flying scene they have planned.  One thing leads to another, and Gohan gets roped into playing himself, since he happens to be wearing a costume.  
Tumblr media
And from there, the gag is that the director hates all of Gohan’s superhero poses, because he thinks the real Saiyaman is more dignified than that.    Oh, and Staff Officer Black is part of the filming crew.  
Tumblr media
Great Saiyaman would be downright subdued in JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure, though.    The thing I don’t get is why the director is so picky about Gohan’s poses, when he ought to be concerned about Gohan’s costume.    He doesn’t have the helmet, after all.    You’d think that would play hell with the film’s continuity.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Finally, they try to film that flying scene, which involves hoisting Gohan up by a crane, but then he notices how late it’s getting, so he flies away under his own power, dragging the crane through the set.   
Tumblr media
And then everyone realizes they were dealing with the genuine article.   Whoops.
Tumblr media
Gohan stops off at Kame House, where Krillin is apparently still living.   Also he retired from martial arts and let his hair grow out.   
Tumblr media
Also living with Master Roshi are Android 18 (his wife), and Maron (their daughter).  Krillin is excited about Goku coming back, but he isn’t too hot on entering a tournament with three Super Saiyans in it.   But this year they have prizes for 5th place, and Krillin likes those odds.   So does 18, who plans to enter herself, because 18 really wants money in this leg of the story.   
Tumblr media
Next stop is the Lookout, where I guess Piccolo lives.   He’s also down to enter the tournament, so it looks like we’ve got a field of eight already.  
Tumblr media
Gohan invites Dende too, but he’s not a warrior-type Namekian, so he takes a pass.     I think this was just an excuse to establish that Dende is still serving as Earth’s Kami, and that he’s grown up some since his most recent appearance.   Pretty sure Dragon Ball Super de-aged him for some reason, so enjoy Teen Dende while you can.  
Tumblr media
Piccolo thinks Gohan’s outfit is stupid too, which is pretty weak considering Piccolo is basically wearing the same look.    I mean, which part is stupid, Piccolo?   The cape?   The cloth wrapped around his head?   
Tumblr media Tumblr media
That takes care of Piccolo.    What about Tien and Yamcha?   What about Tien and Yamcha?   Bulma can do it.   Next.  
Tumblr media
On his way home, Gohan starts to think about how he plans to proceed with the actual competition, and he figures he’d better take some time to whip himself back into shape.   
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
You’d think Chi-Chi would have a problem with Gohan’s plan to take time off from school, but she’s totally on board with the idea, because if Goku and Gohan enter this thing and do well then they can score a bunch of money to send Goten to school later.     Also she’s happy to see Goku after a seven year drought, if you know what I mean.   
Tumblr media
And there we have it.   Gohan’s all set to train for the tournament.  
Tumblr media
Hey, it’s some deer.   
Tumblr media
Later, we find Gohan and Goten warming up for some training.   Great to see Gohan in his classic purple Piccolo dogi.   I was never too wild about Gohan wearing Goku orange.   
Tumblr media
So this episode marks the debut of one of my favorite pieces of music from the Japanese score.    On the OST, it’s part of a track entitled “Believe in Tomorrow”, but it’s the final segment, beginning at about 5:17.
youtube
Tumblr media
It’s a reprise of the ending theme, “We Were Angels”, but it’s more ominous, and well-suited for end-of-the-episode cliffhangers.     Not that this part of the saga is especially suspenseful, but it’s still pretty exciting to see Gohan preparing for an epic battle against Vegeta and/or his dad.   
Tumblr media
Goten’s pumped for this, and so are we.
