Last time on Dragon Ball...

Goku was in hot pursuit

of the sinister General Blue, who stole three Dragon Balls

from Master Roshi's island.

You'll get a blast out of this!

Unfortunately, our hero fell victim

to the General's dastardly trick.

But in the end, the evil villain got his just deserts.

Bad man, but great fireworks.

Goku landed in a strange place

known as Penguin Village,

where more adventure awaits him - today!

Hi!

Huh? Oh, hi!

Woohoo !

Arale Rides the Cloud

"Strange Visitor"

Hello. What's your name?

I'm called Goku.

My name is Arale.

And this is Gatchan One and Two.

Wow, what strange little birds.

Would you like to come play with us for a while?

That sounds like a lot of fun, but I can't right now.

I have to find the Dragon Balls.

Oh, and what is a Dragon Balls?

Hey Nimbus Cloud! Hurry back!

Cool! Hey, wait for me!

Goku!

Huh?

I believe I owe General White an apology.

I've never suffered a task as difficult

as destroying that child.

Impossible! No one could have survived that fall.

What is that kid made of?!

I could have sworn he crashed somewhere around this mountain.

There it is!

But it doesn't look like there's much left of the plane.

I hope the Dragon Balls are safe.

What a nuisance! He won't give up!

That little brat is the bane of my existence.

He's not going to get these Dragon Balls!

Nope, that's not it. This is really strange.

There's no sign of the balls anywhere.

Not a single one. Or the bag.

Everything's gone! Including the bad man!

He must have gotten away

and taken the Dragon Balls with him!

I know you're around here somewhere!

Gee, you guys are really fast. Did you run all the way here?

Yes!

Incredible! You're as fast as my Nimbus Cloud.

Maybe faster! Who did you train with?

No one. I just like to run.

It's fun. You know, you don't need this junk.

We have a playground.

I'm not here to play.

I'm looking for a bad man. He took my Dragon Balls.

That's horrible.

Flying Nimbus!

I'd be happy to help you look for your balls

if you need a hand.

Really? You wouldn't mind doing that for me?

Sure. Would you mind giving me a ride on your cloud?

Yeah, no problem. If it lets you.

Whoa! You guys have definitely been good.

Of course. Let's go.

You heard her. Let's go! Fly!

So, is this fun or what?

Yes!

Go Nimbus, go!

Whoa!

Fly!

Such a strange, backward place.

With one tank I could conquer it in a day.

These simpletons would think I was a god!

What have we here?

Huh?

Hm?

Bleh!

Hmph!

Finally!

Halt!

Hey, what's the big idea?!

Can't you see I'm tryin' to drive here!

Stop whining. Get out of the car.

What?! Why you little–

Nice pants you've got there, pal.

This should be fun.

All right, stranger.

I'm assuming you didn't stop me for my autograph.

Hm. Wait here a moment.

I'll be right back.

I can tell this is going to be a long day.

With the bite of a sour prune I become...

...Sour Man! Incredibly strong and regular.

Uh...

Feel free to tremble.

For no one can resist the might of Sour Man!

Perhaps. But I would lose the bow tie if I were you.

What do you know about being a superhero?!

Have you ever changed clothes in a phone booth?!

Or spent hours combing your hair just to get that perfect curl?!

Why, my dry-cleaning bill alone would turn your hair white!

But let's cut to the chase.

Bear witness to the awesome power that is me!

Ha ha! There's plenty more where that came from!

I do not wish to harm you, stranger.

But if you do not move out of my way,

I will be forced to use extreme measures.

What do you think you're doing?!

Huh?

Ah ha ha... Well then, okay, so, have you ever

thought about taking a sidekick, sir?

I'm sure I could free up my calendar.

I have plenty of lackeys. What I need is transportation.

Ah, I understand.

What mode of travel do you prefer?

I need something that doesn't have feet.

Do you have an airplane?

Yes! An airplane would be perfect, wouldn't it?!

Why didn't I think of that?!

Actually, I don't.

Then perhaps you would be so kind as to refer me

to someone who does.

Let's see now, who do I know owns a plane?

Ah! Yes, I know!

Sembei Norimaki is who you want to see, sir!

And where does this Norimaki reside?

Yes, it's very simple.

Just head down this road until you get to the sea.

Turn right, and his house is on the left.

Nice car. You don't mind if I use it.

Certainly. Certainly. It's my privilege, sir.

Have a wonderful journey!

You can run, you fiendish rogue.

But Sour Man will still be here!

Police! Pull your vehicle over now!

Taro. What did I do this time?

That's Officer Soramame, miss. And you were speeding.

Speeding! Didn't you see how slow I was going?

Besides there's no one on the road for miles.

Lucky for them.

In any case, there's no excuse for speeding.

I have to issue you a ticket.

Please hand over your license and registration.

Fine! But I'm telling Mother what you did

to her flower garden.

Hey, look! There's Akane and Taro!

Who?

Hi, Arale.

Hi.

And who is this?

I don't believe I've ever seen you before.

He's just visiting. His name is Goku.

Hello. Nice to meet you.

Is he a friend of yours?

Yes. We've been having lots of fun.

Haven't we, Goku?

Yeah, you bet!

Hi. You were flyin' pretty fast.

Do you have a permit for that cloud?

Akane here has the coolest scooter in town.

My ride is nothing compared to this beauty.

What do you call it?

It's called the Flying Nimbus.

It's neat-o! It even does tricks and stuff. You should try it!

Would you mind? I've never sat on a cloud before.

Sure. But you should probably be careful–

Nevermind.

Oww! What did I do wrong?

I don't know but it must have been bad.

What?!

Only people with clean minds and hearts

can ride aboard the Nimbus Cloud.

What are you laughing at? You think this is funny?!

You're busted.

Oh yeah?! Then why don't you try it?

Uh! My pleasure.

Looks like your star's a little tarnished, Taro.

I thought you were supposed to be perfect.

But I'm the police?!

So a policeman is someone who goes out

and tries to catch the bad people?

That's our job, son.

I'm looking for a bad person, too.

Maybe you've seen him.

Who? Is it someone really dangerous,

like a bank robber?

I don't know, but he's a member

of the Red Ribbon Army.

Did you say Red Ribbon Army?!

The Red Ribbon Army is here in Penguin Village?

Yeah.

Uh...

What was that all about?

Taro?

The kid's gotta be mistaken. It can't be true.

It's not true. There's no way

the Red Ribbon Army could be in Penguin Village.

Believe me. The kid's tellin' the truth.

I know it. They're here.

The Red Ribbon Army is the most dangerous

criminal organization on the planet.

What do they want with us?

I'm not sure.

It could be that they're just passing through,

or, they may be planning some sort of invasion.

An invasion?!

One thing is certain.

They didn't send one of their soldiers out here

to help us meet this month's ticket quota.

Come on! You stupid piece of junk!

I just want to get back to headquarters.

Oh, I could walk faster than this!

I said work! That's an order!

Huh? What's this?

Excuse me.

What's the matter with your car?

If I had to guess, I would say it was broken.

Here, let me take a look at it...

Oh, I see! This isn't so bad.

If you just connect this wire and rotate that valve...

It'll just take a minute!

Hm... Ah!

Such a kind and thoughtful boy.

He reminds me of...

...Samuel! My little brother.

Can it be that I've found you after all these years?

I've missed you, little one.

See how easy that was.

It should work now.

Amazing! I can't believe it.

You have no idea what this means to me!

It was my pleasure, sir. I love automobiles.

Especially the vintage models like yours.

You always did love to fix things, didn't you, Samuel?

Sorry. You must have me confused with someone else.

My name is Obottcha Man.

But you can call me O.M. for short.

Everybody does. Well, it was nice meeting you.

But I'd better be going now. I'm late for a meeting. Goodbye!

No, wait! Samuel, come back!

Fool, when will you realize your brother

is never coming back! Focus on your mission!

Looks like I'm about to trade up.

Hey, this might be him.

I'll need to see your license and registration.

I'm sorry, officer, well I didn't carry them with me today.

Must have left 'em in my other jacket.

Very well. Then you'll need to come with us.

Stop! You're under arrest!

So, what do you guys do for fun around here?

Personally, I love to bowl.

Once again I'm in need of an automobile.

Do you mind if I take yours?

Gladly, sir.

The keys are in the ignition!

This is strange.

It's almost as if he disappeared into thin air.

Oh, look. There's Taro!

Hey, Taro. Are you okay? What happened?

It was terrible.

We tried to apprehend him, but he's unstoppable.

So I was right. The bad man is still alive!

Which way did he go?

Straight. Just follow the sirens.

Thanks for your help, policeman!

Hey, Goku! Wait for me!

Okay, you! I know you're around here somewhere!

Missed me again.

- Ooh... - Ah!

But I don't wanna go to school today, Mummy.

Ah? Hello.

I don't suppose you have a spare tire?

Are you hungry?

Huh?

Sorry about that. I'll find you some more food.

I'm not hungry, thank you.

I don't think I'll ever eat again.

Yoo-hoo? Yoo-hoo?

Yum!

What's the matter with you?!

Get that ugly thing out of my face!

I don't know where it's been!

Zero fat. Tasty!

Do you have any idea what you're holding?

It has a face! Get away from me!

All of you! You're all insane!

Maybe you'd like to try a different flavor.

Yoo-hoo!

Ooh...

Yay!

Any luck finding that bad man?

Nothing yet. If I only had a way to find him.

Hey, wait! I do have something here I can use!

Bulma built this to find the Dragon Balls...

and if he still has mine, then wherever they are,

that's where he is too!

Oh no, it's broken again.

Oh...

I guess I'll have to take it back home

and ask Bulma to repair it.

Huh?

By the way, do you know where we are?

No. But it's pretty.

Not here, this whole place!

I was chasing that Red Ribbon guy so fast,

I didn't look where I was going.

Do you have any idea how I can get back

to Master Roshi's island?

No, I sure don't.

Oh no. How can I get the radar fixed

if I can't get home?

Are you sure it's broken?

Yes.

Then that means a doctor can fix it.

Really? Great! Do you know where one lives?

Yep!

Uh-huh! Uh-huh!

We're here!

What? What in the world is that?

I've never seen that boy before.

Maybe it's a long-lost relative...

Your side.

I have a cousin with a tail but that doesn't look like her.

There he is. He's the doctor.

Hey there– I mean, hello. How are you?

Fine. And you?

Goku, over there.

Are you his wife?

Sir, we were wondering if you could repair this?

Okay. Your watch?

No, sir. It's a Dragon Radar.

Dragon Radar?

You hunt dragons with this thing?

Dragon Balls.

There are seven in all and the radar helps me find them.

That's fine...

But I need to know how it works, what makes it tick.

I believe it works by detecting the unique

energy signatures emitted by certain objects.

Oh, yeah...

First I need to get inside the machine

and make a diagnostic appraisal.

Its construction looks simple enough.

What in the world is that?!

I've never seen anything like this before!

Look at all the colors! It's really high-tech!

Who could design such a thing?!

A girl named Bulma made it.

Huh? Girl?! You say a little girl made this

complex machine? That's impossible!

Ooh...

Little does Goku know,

but the Dragon Balls are coming to him,

as General Blue makes his way to Sembei's house.

Can our hero stop this one-man army?

Or will he wreak more havoc on Penguin Village?

Find out on the next 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!

Heya! I'm Goku!

Seriously, where do these guys come from, trying to snatch the Dragon Balls?

Haha! Those Dragon Balls are mine!

So you're alive, after all, huh!?

Don't you move, now!

Or this girl's life is over!

Man, you really are despicable!
