This is the most interesting fic I have ever found in this fandom and I'm going to really hope that you are just taking a two year break from writing and will finish it eventually. From the complex world building to the random bouts of hilarity ( afterlife dentist hah) this is a masterpiece.

It's a travesty that this story doesn't have 100 reviews. At the minimum it should have 1,000. This is a great story! You're tackling an aspect of the Dragonball World that has never been explored before.

This has been a great series so far, so much originality, so much backstory filled in, so many great original characters, and such wonderful use of repetition. While other people may find reuse of certain lines as annoying, I see it as similar to the poetry used in the Bible.
I especially liked you having the human characters developing new attacks. Scatter Kienzan… I'm sorry but that technique is just too awesome for me NOT to use it in my own Tien fanfic. Don't worry, I'll give you credit for it, I'm not the kind of guy who steals techniques that I didn't independently think up.
Sorry that I didn't drop more reviews, this was a great fanfic and it seems almost criminal that you haven't gotten at least 100 reviews.

This chapter was excellently structured. I loved how you were able to tie together three scenes with very different things going on with a common opening. Very well done.
I can't suppress a smile whenever I thing about Piccolo's Sage comment about the mute button. Now that would be a wish I could get behind.

When I discovered that this story had updated, I was pretty ecstatic (less so when I saw that Blasphemy was discontinued, but eh, hopefully we don't wind up missing anything important that can't fit into Eclipse?)

Buuuut...

This current arc with Baba and the afterlife and the goddess? It's well done; it has my attention; I want to see where it's going...
... But it feels like the story took a sharp left turn when Kami showed up at Ox King's palace, and might as well be a sequel. I'm thinking in terms of the "intros as promises" concept; the RRA, the world government, the geopolitical history of the dragonworld, and the exploration of different styles than "Fly around really fast and punch things that won't explode in a hail of ki blasts" is all awesome and what the first couple chapters lead us to believe the story will focus on, and it does so for 20 chapters... then suddenly the concept of the soul of an empire, an afterlife apocalypse and a mother goddess all pop up with only Kami's worryings about his successor and Mutaito's family tree as hints. (I'd contrast this with About Time, where we know we're getting into an epic supernatural puzzle pretty quickly, and all of the twists, even unexpected ones, can be understood in hindsight as fitting into what had already been established.)
It sorta feels like this afterlife/Lotus arc is a (all be it awesome) distraction from the story over all. Are we going to see the conclusion of 9/16? Is anything interesting happening with Cell? Will these parental/teacher/student issues be resolved? How far will the android development go; will we get something on 19/20? Will the story last all the way to Freeza's Counterattack (I don't remember what month that was in offhand, but I want to think it was Spring, so probably not, but it's been something on my mind as the story has progressed)?

But you have me hooked with the afterlife arc, so please continue however you see fit. :)

Ha! That was interesting what you did with Maron. Nice touch changing a plot hole from a filler episode into a connection between this story and the "official" one.

I didn't care for this chapter as much as the others because it was so vague, but the syntax was still incredible and I like the development for Ranshin.

Alright, so I enjoyed the extra, background information on Ranshin and now we at least know that Tien was one of her "fathers" which I guess is why the Crane Hermit took such an interest in her. Your story is always easy to read and it flow beautifully, but I must say that the ending doesn't make a lot of sense. I know you want it to be shrouded in mystery, but it just seems a little too vague at the moment since Ranshin is suddenly just jumping in this guy's car who just killed her master, the only person she had ever really known and listened to his words like they were the gospel, and who she was just threatening to kill. Hopefully, this will be elaborated on in future chapters, but it was still a pretty good chapter.

I really enjoyed the detail you put into explaining the exact reason why the Red Ribbon Army began making Androids, how they made them, the questions that the scientist asked themselves about building the Androids, the effects that events from DB had on them as they worked. And yes, the syntax was once again absolutely amazing. I really loved the introduction of the other project that Gero was involved with in canon. Cell. Obviously, this isn't Cell, but is his predeccosor of splicing together the DNA of the strongest warriors on Earth and then raising them to be soldiers for the Red Ribbon Army. I also loved the re-introduction of the Crane Hermit and making him allied with the Red Ribbon Army. It's definetly in his character to work with scum like Dr. Gero in order to try and gain revenge on Tien and Chiaotzu. Another great chapter, and you keep making this story more and more interesting!

Great job once again. Your syntax was effortless and made things really easy to read and it was quite enjoyable. I love how you gave the Android process a developed and believable background and showed the problems and difficulties of that process, and also the first look into Gero's other creation: Cell. Ranshin is already showing herself as a great OC in my opinion, and I hope to see more of Android 9 eventually. Great work. (Although, once again, the apostrophe and dialogue issues were a little distracting.)

Great, great start to the story. I love when an author takes the time to give detailed background information about something (in this case, the Earth as a society) and your story was set up in a VERY efficient manner. I also loved that we could tell something nefarious was going on with Dr. Gero, and you managed to mask it so it was believable that the world government would think over his plan. And, to add to that, your syntax was absolutely incredible. One of the top three out of any authors on the entire site, in my opinion. Of course, there were a lot of grammatical issues regarding dialogue, apostrophes, and commas. When doing dialogue, always use a comma instead of a period (with a few exceptions). Ex:

"No. No, of course not." Dr. Gero hurried to explain.

It should be...

"No. No, of course not," Dr. Gero hurried to explain.

As for apostrophes, use them in front of an "S" to demarcate possession. Example:

Earths Special Forces

Should be...

Earth's Special Forces

Other than that, great work! I loved the start.

Wow, I have to say that this was a great start to the story. I really liked the introduction of the actual World's government's response to the Saiyan's arrival on Earth. It was something we never got to see in the actual series and then the introduction of the Red Ribbon Army at that point I thought was brilliant. I really enjoy when authors take the time to expand on things that were ignored in the actual series and I'm really impressed by the opening chapter to this story, even though it is pretty short. Your plot, syntax, and the way you bring out your characters are all incredible, especially the formatting and syntax of the story. Great start, and I'll be sure to read more!

You're updating! yes, thank you, I've been waiting eagerly for this for ages!
I'm sorry I can't offer a detailed review but suffice to say the Draggonball world you have made here is fascination, the character building the background all of it, and this chapter was as usual fantastic!
Can't wait to see the next one!

Interesting start. As terrible of an idea as colluding with the Red Ribbon army is, given the magnitude of the World Government's helplessness in the face of the alien threat, it's believable. You've justified your concept well here, and it completely changes the dynamics of the Cell saga story.

my lord all of this is AWESOME! and I cant WIAT to see all the fancy stuff and hell you've made it so that .. Im just going to say this is awesome and I want to read more but its late im tired but I want to continue!

Thank you just all of it! even if the Z fighters not noticing that Gohan was getting kidnaped, as well as him being the strongest, I thought that was Piccalo based on the shit that happened, if Vegeta isn't there(honestly we sould have gotten to see Veta slap around the third form of Frieza a bit!)

and HELL the COLD EMPIRE and how you handle the Kais, with movie logic and adding up the Bojack gang
and the Kaioshins apparently being knoced down to two guys left and all of what East kai had to DO and the deputy like Kais and
