Dragon Ball 25-26 - Jackie Chun vs Goku!

Kamehameha isn’t a mistranslation Toriyama wanted a name for the move with Kame in it and his wife suggested he name it after the King of Hawaii, Kamehemeha. Ka-me-ha-me-ha is just for charging up the attack, the actual name of the attack when said normally is Kamehemeha

Roshi is actually right here, at this point in the story Goku is the monkey king not a Saiyan, he doesn’t have the instinctual drive to constantly seek out stronger opponents in order to get stronger himself, Martial Arts is something he does for fun and to connect with his Grandpa. If Martial Arts stopped being fun for Goku he would still train in order to stay connected with his Grandpa, but he wouldn’t seriously push himself to keep getting stronger and neither would Krillin. This comes up throughout Z and Super as well, but it’s different once Goku is a Saiyan

So the Drunken Boxing technique is actually a reference/nod to one of Jackie Chan's older films known as The Drunken Master.

Nam vs Goku was a lot of fun. That bit with both Goku and Nam swimming in the air after leaping four stories high? Pure enjoyable silly combat. I'm glad Master Roshi gave him that capsule so he could bring water back to his village.

If indeed the version of the show you switched to is what I think it is, then I’m very glad because that one re-inserts some of the Japanese insert songs in places where the dub took them out. If so, prepare for peak.

The fight between Goku and Roshi is PEAK!

Wish they would have had Goku do the mad dog technique like he does in the manga during this fight.

We are definitely still in the looney tunes style gag centric focus era of db but the small bits of martial arts in this arc are essentially the roots of what’s to come and what you’ve already seen. There are always gags in all of dragonball ofc but the primary focus definitely shifts overtime a couple times
