--- If I recall correctly, the Namek saga has ALOT of filler, I'm really looking forward to see how fast and how nicely it goes without them. But I wonder if they're gonna keep the parts where they explain things like super saiyan, I remember it was longer than necessary but it was still interesting and maybe still relevant, though i don't really remember. Is Goku doing Kamehameha on the sun or some star a filler btw? that was just silly, might as well have shown him doing kamehameha to open a soda can, imo that would be funny but that's just me |

I doubt it is Akira Toriyama who gets to choose what is kept in Kai and what is not... there has already been filler kept in Kai after all.
And the driving episode is a classic yes, but I doubt we'll be seeing it again. I don't mind too much, since, being entirely filler, it was done perfectly in Z. |

Anyone i keep seeing 50 episode total for Kai, and that's around the time the Frieza arc will end. I'm guessing they're splitting the series in two, maybe three?

Yeah that's what MyAnimeList says and I thought it was strange too. Gotta wonder if it's actually confirmed by a reliable source or not.
If it is indeed true, then we should indeed expected Kai 2, cause I can't imagine they'd simply stop this big project after the Frieza arc. |

Actually I've been wondering the same thing especially because the DVDs kind of confirms the 50 episode total: every DVD has three episodes, except for the final one which only has two episodes ending the entire show perfectly at episode 50. Considering this is the Toriyama's cut and Toriyama originally wanted the series to end after the Frieza fight... so maybe Kai will end of the Frieza's saga?
Then again I also agree with Endless Twilight this show is too big to end this early.

But they aren't redoing the series, so there really isn't anywhere in that area to just end it without making it obvious that it isn't supposed to end there.
Spoiler for Goku / Frieza-Namek Saga Spoilers?:
Spoiler for Possible Trunks / Cell Spoilers?:

Just because it doesn't seem like an ending after the Frieza arc doesn't mean they can't end it there. We've seen cliffhanger endings plenty of times, so it's not like it can't happen here.
Also it hasn't been mentioned yet if we'll get another series or not for the following arcs.

Spoiler for Just in case:
Now that I'm done with playing Devil's advocate, I do want to point out that episode 50 will air in April which is still 9 months away. So maybe they haven't planned Dragon ball Kai beyond episode 50 because it's simply too far away and the DVDs (so far) end at episode 50 because it is the perfect fit for the Frieza saga box set. At least that is what I'm hoping.

Speaking of new footages, have they made any? Basically everything so far has been upgraded but I haven't really recognized any new. I was kind of disappointed the genki dama looked the same (except for when Vegeta gets hit, that's awesome), either that or I need to watch it again. It's used quite a few times, so I kind of expected some insane huge super glowing pulsating seizure-inducing and sparkling ball coming my way
I was also surprised to see they still left the "!!" coming from Vegeta as he saw the genki dama |

Relax. People are only speculating that it is going to end at episode 50 just because that is the current episode count for the DVD releases. It's very possible/probable that Toei still has yet to decide how they're going to do the Cell and Buu arcs, which could very well be the reason why they don't have a definitive episode count that encompasses those two arcs as of now.
