Review by DBZTape -  www.geocities.com/dbztape

We see Goku rolling along on a log with a saw when the log starts to roll to fast and he begins to lose his balance.  He makes it home OK and is preparing to chop the wood up for fire.  He chops it up perfectly with his hands and says that he is hungry. 

Elsewhere, a girl is driving in a car looking for something.  Goku goes inside of his house and kneels before a ball and says taht he is going out to get some food to it.  He says that it is his grandfather.  He goes into the woods and is swinging from branch to branch until he finds an apple tree.  He eats one of the apples and throws away the core.  The core hits a tiger on the head.  It begins to chase Goku.  Goku tricks it into falling off of a cliff.  Goku jumps in a lake for a swim, and he decides to fish for a while.  He dips his tail into the water, and a fish almost immediately goes after it.  Goku hits it on the head and starts to drag it back to his house. 

The girl in the car shows up and hits Goku.  Goku thinks it’s a monster and that it’s trying to take his food.  The girl shoots Goku with a gun.  It doesn’t have any effect on him.  The girl explains that she isn’t goblin and that she is a human just like him.  Goku is still skeptical.  He checks her out thoroughly.  She explains that she is a girl.  Goku doesn’t know what a girl is.  He says that his grandfather told him that if he were to ever see a girl that he was to be extra polite.  She explains that the thing she was driving in was a car.  Goku says that since she is a girl he will let her have some of his fish.  She looks at her radar and says that the dragonball is down that road.  Goku tells her his name and the girl says her name is Buruma.  Goku laughs at her because of her silly name.  They arrive at his house and they see the ball is glowing. 

Goku believes that his grandfather is in the ball and that it is the only thing he left him besides the house.  Buruma says that it is a dragonball and pulls out two more dragonballs. She tells Goku to set his down next to hers.  She explains that when you find all 7 dragonballs, a dragon appears and grants you any wish you want. 

Elsewhere, a short blue guy and two of his henchman find a dragonball.  One of his henchmen is a woman, the other is fox looking creature.  The short man’s name, is Emperor Pilaf.  He says that when he finds all seven of the dragonballs, he is going to wish to rule the world.  Back at Goku’s house, Buruma tells Goku that she wants to wish for a boyfriend.  Goku won’t give up his ball.  Buruma flashes her panties at Goku.  Goku asks why would he want to touch her dirty ass.  Buruma asks if he wants to find the dragonballs with her.  He says sure, that it sounds like fun.  They begin to walk down a road and Buruma shows him the radar she was using.  She calls it a Dragon Radar.  She pulls out a capsule and throws it.  In a puff of smoke, a motorcycle appears.  Goku thinks that it is magic and checks it out to make sure that it isn’t alive.  They speed off into the mountains.

         Buruma ramps up a hill and they come to a stop.  Buruma has to go to the bathroom.  He hears Buruma yell and follows her.  A large bird has grabbed her.  Goku asks Buruma if she knows it.  The bird ties up Goku.  Buruma tells Goku to rescue her, so Goku easily escapes the ropes and the bird flies away with Buruma.  Goku jumps on the motorcycle and flies through the air.  He jumps off of the motorcycle pulls out a staff and says for it to grow bigger and it does!  He hits the bird with it and Buruma falls through the air.  She gets caught on a branch that is over hanging a cliff.  Goku gets her down and they drive off together again to look for the dragonballs.
