Haha this episode was great and ChiChi was pretty awesome for once this episode, it was great to see some backstory on Gohan when he was a child and growing up! Pretty nice episode in general just to count down to the tournament!

"I guess I'll wait for the next one." - Haha, good luck with that one Ox King. WHY WAS THE GUY TALKING ON CAMERA AT THE CELL GAMES RING WEARING A FIRE EXTINGUISHER ON HIS BACK LOL. This was a nice episode.

So Gohan was named after breakfast and dinner

I thought that it wasn't the first time Goku told Gohan to study, but that was in the film "Coola's Revenge"

A nice sweet episode, breather moments like this really make the action seem more impactful when you truly understand what someone is fighting to protect.

Another nice filler episode, Gohan's Birthday :3 They got to make memories that they'll always cherish before the Cell Games.

Assuming that frog at the end was Captain Ginyu... what is he doing in Goku's neck of the woods? I thought he was 'King of the Pond' at Capsule Corp... (Bulma's Place) I guess he's got to get out sometime and see the world lol.

Kinda surprised Cell reacted like that towards the News Reporters :o I thought he would actually give them a short speech THEN scare them off xD Guess he doesn't care. They interrupted his hibernation. (Assuming that he might've possibly been in a 'Hibernation State')

Nice filler episode. It's rare we get to see the Z Warrior crew enjoying their peaceful lives. It was also cool seeing Gohan receive his name and watching his Hulk out for the first time!

Nothing essential but a funny little interlude episode. Didn't expect the hole in the tree was created by Baby/Child Gohan.
