Rumor: "Goku never having kissed Chichi is a mistranslation."
Kanzenshuu: "We've done a ton of research, we translated the scene with someone who has lived in Japan for decades, and been a Dragon Ball fan for even longer. Then we also translated it using third-party translators with no context. We can state definitively that it's not a mistranslation, and according to Dragon Ball Super, and the original manga, Goku has never kissed Chich and it's never been seen in any material that Akira Toriyama actually definitively wrote."
People in Twitter comments: "I've actually heard it's a mistranslation. My source is trust me, bro."

Kanzenshuu dives in to determine whether Goku has ever kissed... but more importantly, to show that Dragon Ball Super was not mistranslated

Good news!
If you're one of "those people" who for some reason likes to watch audio podcasts on YouTube, we're now on YouTube!

Toyatarou said the very last correction/suggestion Toriyama ever gave him was to have Piccolo wave farewell rather than just fly away, and he felt it was of utmost importance after Toriyama passed.

Note: not the original drawings because of permissions, but Toyatarou’s reproduction of the drawings.
