This Dragon Ball Gekishin Squadra ad looks slick, but I'm not sure how I feel about the game. What do you say?

When did Grandpa Gohan die? I discovered the answer to this 40-year-old mystery in Bird Land Press Volume 15! Akira Toriyama tells us the year of Gohan's death, before Dragon Ball Chapter 1. How do you feel about Goku and Gohan's relationship now?
