How did Japs do it?
Even Americans, who value multiculturalism and diversity, could not achieve that.

Why do Latinx love Super so much?

Traditional masculine archetypes and tons of comedic charm.

We don't? Nobody in Mexico gives a shit about Super, Dr. Goku and Memeball is more popular than that shit.

Goku doesn't possess the one-sided, pretentious sense of justice found in American superheroes.
He gets angry when his friends are hurt. He fights because, as a martial artist, he wants to be stronger than anyone else.
That's something any child can understand perfectly well.

>>215554878
it's the most basic power fantasy, while comic book super heroes of the west were busy being dramatic about their past or morals or simping after girls - DBZ was just about settling problems by training and fighting.

Fun fact: Dragonball, Naruto and the likes are almost completely unknown in Sweden. "Anime" to most people in Sweden pretty much means Studio Ghibli shit.

How do you feel about Dragonball?
>>
>>215554878
It's still hilarious to me how Gohan has wild child hair at the start of the series but during the PTSD inducing brutal Namek arc he has a lame schoolboy bowl cut.

Literally the opposite of what makes sense aesthetically.

his mom gave him a bowl cut before sending him away on a big trip

Goku is actually my least favorite character in DBZ and Super, but the fact that there are plenty other characters to root for is what makes it such a great series.

Chichi is ruining the poor kid's aura in front of his friends. You're supposed to look cool while you're getting scarred for life.

ToP and Black Goku were better than Daima. Even fucking GT was more entertaining than Daima.

Goku is just such a good character. He is gentle and strong, hard working, a family man, wants people to retain a pure essence no matter what life throws at them and always willing to forgive people believing he can change them by example. I think Goku is the key to the universal nature of this show.
>>
>>215558460
they made him too retarded in recent times. I don't think Goku was this dumb in the past, now he's just suicidally stupid and outright letting dangerous mass murderers live just for the sport of it. Yes he always wanted to let people live but not for sport, because he hoped that they would change their minds and get better. These days he lets Frieza live just so he has something to fight. Frieza probably kills millions of innocent people every time he gets let off but Goku acts like there's no problem.
>>

GT is fucking hilarious the animation is just lacking during the action scenes

>>215558555
yea I agree and not sure what the reasoning behind it is, maybe trying to lean into the japanese elements of the show?? Or maybe like with frieza theyre thinking of the marketing of things first then justifying it after. Frieza is never going to rehabilitate lol.

Japs makes their character white skinned even when they aren't whites, so they get the white audience
They make their characters violent, so they get the non-white aduience
They make their characters kiss each other, so they get the female audience

Is not that hard
>>
>>215558730
lots of japs have white skin theyre not all yellow. Like literally if you put their skin in photoshop sometimes theyre pale as a ghost. Sometimes. Not always obviously. And even in mexico there are white skinned women who are Mexican, not everyone is a racial stereotype.
