Monkeyballz

So I was just reading the Twitters today, when this caught my eye.

Ride a cloud? I only know of one person who rides a cloud, and it's not this Goku character. Hold on, I've got to check this...

Wait, what? Did anyone else know about this? Have these two been the same person the whole time?

 

Is Dragonballz just Monkey Magic for a younger generation? I've never watched Dragonballz, but Monkey Magic was pretty awesome. Why did they remake it with Monkey looking even less monkey-like than last time? And how could you possibly improve on the original? This makes no sense. The world has gone crazy.
