Of Vegetables and Underwear...
Welcome! If you are a Dragon Ball Z newbie or you just don't happen to know the name translations you would've came in here thinking what could possibly be in here? If you knew the name translations you would know what I'm talking about. But this isn't like much places that translate dbz names. I've searched all over the net to find places or things that shared the same name with the Dragon Ball Z characters. Please do not use these on your page because I got these all by myself. If you know more translations or puns of the Dragon Ball Z characters, e-mail me at ShAdoWzGrL@aol.com. Write name puns as the subject. Thanks and I hope you enjoy.
