It's not fair!

I'm too beautiful to die!

Last time on Dragon Ball...

Ha!

Though our heroes were unable to claim

the pirate's treasure, they did not leave empty handed,

thanks to the diamond Bulma grabbed during her escape.

I got a souvenir.

The hefty jewel created quite a stir

amongst the others, especially Master Roshi.

Are you insinuating that I don't make

sound financial decisions?!

Yes.

Why you no good–!

However, Launch's alter ego

proved that diamonds are a bad-girl's best friend.

Hand it over before someone...

...gets hurt.

Thanks.

Just as the gang was recovering

from Launch's surprise attack,

General Blue decided to drop by for a visit...

And he didn't come to borrow a cup of sugar.

Nooooo! That diamond is mine! I want it!

Bring it back! It's not fair! Bring me my diamond back!

There's no need to get so upset.

Life is too short. Well, at least yours is anyway.

"Penguin Village"

N'cha !

Chased to Penguin Village

What a beautiful sight!

Like little, white, soft cotton balls stuck in the sky.

I'd like to pluck one down and just bury my face in it!

I lost my dream somewhere between

the ocean and the bottom of this glass.

That's pretty deep.

But is that you talking or just the fruit-punch?

She loves me not...

She loves me. She loves me not. She loves me. She loves me not.

Goku, are you ready for some time off?

Sure. After I find Grandpa's four-star ball.

Suit yourself. Me, I'm going home.

No more adventures... Oh, which reminds me.

Can I borrow your airplane?

Sure. If you don't mind

retrieving my diamond from Launch first.

That's impossible!

I can't get the diamond back. I need transportation.

We could always work out another arrangement.

Forget about it!

Those amateurs don't stand a chance

against my enhanced mental capabilities.

Live!

Hey, do you smell something funny?

Sorry.

Oh yeah, I forgot. You don't have a nose.

I can take you to the shore, but it might take me a while.

Great, I've been reduced to traveling by turtle!

Oh, Master Roshi, will you keep one more Dragon Ball for me?

Certainly.

I think we're forgetting something...

Anyone holding these balls is a target for the Red Ribbon Army.

I am a master warrior.

Any attack on me would be folly.

Master Roshi, we're being attacked!

What are these things?!

I can't move!

I'll get us out!

This is heavy...

Goku! What are you doing?!

It's you!

You can't be here!

You're dead!

Who are you?

Someone you should fear, old man.

You're not scary. You're sick.

On the contrary, I've never felt better.

Ah, what a beautiful sight.

The Dragon Ball, like your fate, is now in my hands.

Now why do I get the feeling there's something

you're not telling me?

Oh yes, the other Dragon Balls.

You do have more tucked away somewhere, don't you?

Where are they?

Hm...

Ah! Yes!

No!

Hm. Mm-hm... Mm-hm!

Here.

Hm. Oh! Perfect. They're even gift-wrapped.

You maniac! Why in the world are you

so interested in collecting the Dragon Balls anyway?!

Who can say?

Commander Red's purpose is his own.

I've simply been ordered to retrieve them.

But you needn't concern yourself

with any of this, my dear.

After all, what is there really to worry about

when you're dead?

The explosive is set to detonate in five minutes.

That should allow plenty of time for you

to try and save yourselves but...

...not enough to succeed.

Hm.

Hey wait! You don't want to kill us!

I can help you find the other Dragon Balls!

Bulma! Have you lost your mind?

I don't need the help of a little girl. Please!

How 'bout an old man?

Master Roshi!

Bye... Wish I could stick around

to watch but I'm late to collect my reward.

Help me! Help me! Help!

Three minutes!

This is it! We're never gonna make it!

Master Roshi, please do something!

You can save us, right?!

Well, there...

...is a technique I haven't tried yet.

You can do it, Master.

You've got two minutes.

Hey, what's up in the sky?

It's Launch! That girl's got some timing, doesn't she!

Oh! I didn't know we were having a party!

Hey! You'll never believe what I found.

Isn't it beautiful? What do you think?

Hello! Earth to Launch!

There's a bomb!

We're gonna die!

Is this a new game? Where'd you get the blue rope?

Yeah, it's called Stay Alive!

Quick, grab the box and throw it out of the house!

Why is there a clock on the floor?

That's no clock, it's a high-explosive bomb!

Oh no...

This house was spic and span when I left

and I don't appreciate things being left out.

Launch, I'm serious! This is no joke!

Launch, there's no time. Just untie me. Fast!

The rope is so tight.

There's this new invention. It's called a knife!

We've got less than a minute to live. No pressure.

This knife's a bit dull but it's all I've got.

Faster!

We've only got ten seconds!

If you can just get my tail loose!

Ah! Thank you!

Nimbus!

Where are you going?

Be careful.

Don't worry. I'm going to get the Dragon Balls back!

Go catch that twerp, Goku! Make Roshi proud!

Of all the mean, dirty tricks to pull.

I can't believe it. And right here at lunch time!

There's something up ahead.

It's gotta be him!

These Dragon Balls will bare proof

of my genius to Commander Red once and for all!

Who is this?

You...!

But that's impossible! How are you still alive!

Faster!

Of all of the–

Go away!

I don't know how you escaped,

but I won't make the same mistake twice.

Let's see how fast you can fly, little boy.

Ah, what's the matter?

Having trouble keeping up?!

You're not getting away that easy!

Faster, Nimbus, faster!

Nyaaaaah!

Give me my Dragon Balls!

Lousy kid!

The controls!

Oh no! The circuits are all fried!

I'll have to make an emergency landing!

No! Where am I?

This isn't one of the Red Ribbon Army territories!

This doesn't make any sense!

I've never seen any place like this on our navigational charts!

I'm not letting you out of my sight!

Penguin village time, 12 o'clock.

Huh?

Ooh...

Arale! You can beat the Gatchans!

Go for it!

Wee! Wee!

Hey there! Sembei Norimaki here!

Live for your enjoyment!

Huh?

Ah, spring break here I come! So, have you guys thought about

what you're going to do during vacation?

I'm looking forward to practicing my kung fu.

I'm going to be productive

and try to get a part time job so that I can

feed all of my cats.

You know what I'm gonna do, Akane?

All of my homework!

Gee, sounds like a blast.

What are you doing?

And who are you supposed to be talking to?

Huh? Why everyone, my dear girl.

It's been a long time since I appeared on television.

It's nice to be seen, see?

Okay, Sembei, time to get a grip...

The only person seeing you should be a doctor,

as often as possible.

You're standing in my light.

Huh?

What's that noise?

Okay then!

We'll be right back after these messages!

Oh?

What in the world is that?

So fast!

Wow, what a pretty cloud.

This is impossible!

How can he keep up with me riding on a cloud?!

Caught you!

So, you ready to give up now?

All right, you asked for it! Power Pole extend!

Look! There they are again.

His persistence is incredible...

Ah. Perhaps running from him isn't the answer.

Maybe he's finally giving up.

That's close enough.

You'll get a blast out of this!

No force in the world can save you now!

Whoa...

Bad man, but great fireworks!

Uh...

Hi!

Huh? Oh, hi!

It appears Goku has made some new friends...

But who are they?

And what is this strange land he has fallen upon?

There is more to reveal on the next

fun-filled episode of Dragon Ball!

Be as brave as you can be, a childlike love of fantasy,

The world is a mystery for you and me.

A miracle, an adventure too, a single wish waits for you,

The beating of your heart will see you through.

When you think you can't go on, give it another try,

The power of your youth is strong, and as big as the sky.

Search all over the valley, the mountains and you'll see...believing in yourself sets you free!

Come on, I'll give you romance!

Come on, I'll give you paradise!

Liberate the “you” that you keep inside.

Come on, I'll give you romance!

Come on, I'll give you paradise!

Make your dreams come true; you'll see fantasy...magic can happen to you!

Heya! I'm Goku!

Who are you?

Arale!

Where is this?

Penguin Village!

Hey, hey! Are you a good kid?

Yeah, I'm a good kid! I can ride Kinto'un, after all. And you?

Yes, I'm a good kid. Can I help you?

Yeah! There we go!

Cool!

Next time on Dragon Ball:

"Woohoo! Arale Rides the Cloud"

Don't miss it!

Don't miss it, 'kay?

Woohoo !

Arale Rides the Cloud

Woohoo !
