Do you think Future Saga chapter 4 is really going to lead into Xenoverse 3?
>>
>>544446896
It has to. Either that or a string of DLC with interesting content. They're running out of arcs and they're running out of sellable characters to turn purple.

there's a generation of DBZ fans who absolutely despise Pan because they thought she was annoying in GT. she's to DBZ what Chibiusa was to Sailor Moon.

So if they nerf Snowball into uselessness/remove it, who benefits and gets screwed over the most? As far as I can tell:

Benefits:
>Tanks in general
>Technical in general
>Dabura (Prefers longer fights for petrification)

Screwed over:
>DPS in general
>Freeza?

Zig zagged:
>Vegeta (He can choose between it and Build Up, so he'll just default back to Build Up)
>Hit (If he's not running snowball he'll just switch to a blue card)

They wouldn't tell us to get hyped for a DBZ game in advance unless it was something they knew we wanted

You should never run snowball on Frieza that's just a waste. Always Gekishin High/Solid Barrier (or Epic Hunter if there's an enemy Frieza so you take down bosses faster)/Limit Breaking Jump

They hype up anything and everything. It could be that Chinese game that looks like Kakarot for all we know.

Thinking of it, Uub may be someone who benefits a bit from a nerfed snowball. While he does ridiculous amount of damage with it, unless he's throwing an Ult, he prefers slightly longer battles to use Cyclone stuff, since he lacks explosive damage the likes of other DPS.

It's odd to "punish" DBM Pan for GT Pan though. GT Pan was annoying but DBM Pan is just bland.

This was his first reaction to it, in chapter 1 of future saga.
Chapter 2 was his second reaction, controlling the pride troopers and making them assault people throughout the 12 universes

Redpill me on the state of XenoVerse. I remember them teasing Fu like ten years ago, but now you tell me he hasn't already been the villain this whole time?

What's the current status? What the hell has been happening since I played the Switch version at launch

>>544457040
>GT Pan was great
She was a worse version of OG Bulma. Annoying, mostly useless, and not even funny to compensate.

>DBM Pan is boring and generic ass hell.
Yeah true. The one from Goku's universe is slightly better because she has Nyoibo, but she's still rather bland.
>>
>>544457362
I fell happiness because I support a character who is constantly active, unlike Panzy who was all ":)))" for 20 episodes and did nothing of worth.
Fake neutered personalityless character, just like the entire series she was from.

>>544457686
>worse version of OG Bulma
Disagree, I enjoy Pan far more. She also had pretty funny moments, but if you only watch le hype scenes then you don't see any.
>mostly useless
Not true at all.

>she has Nyoibo
wow look, a garbage ripoff because the DBM writers don't know how to make an unique character.
>>
>>544457886
>unlike Panzy
Deflection. They're both garbage. Pan was annoying as shit. She was made to be unlikable. Only British pedophiles can enjoy her.
>>
>>544456257
they recognised Krillin and 18 are the only couple in DBZ with a healthy relationship
>>
>>544457193
a lot of kid fans at the time thought she was an annoying brat who stole screentime away from the main cast, and who only existed because rhe creators wanted to make a dhallow self-insert for the kids watching.
neither Pan nor Chibiusa were introduced for that reason, but that was the general consensus for a long time regarding their place in the series. essentially a Scrappy Doo for their respective franchises.
>>
>>544457191
Up until recently, they've been treating him like a troublemaking kid.
>turns people purple
>TP fixes it
>gets away
>*wrings fist angrily* "Get back here Fu!"
And from Infinite History up until Future Saga Chapter 2 that's how it's been.

But in the end of the first Future Saga chapter, he used a replica time ring he made to take a peak into the future and he saw something that didn't please him too much. In the second chapter he tries to stop it, not sure what the goal was, but it involved turning the Pride Troopers evil and setting them on the 12 universes with Jiren, toppo, dyspo and an off-screened Khaseral heading for U7's earth. That failed and it's been revealed that Fu's been using the crystals he's been turning people purple with on himself and is going mad from it...Or maybe not. Either way he's dropped his laidback attitude.

We're 2 days away from chapter 3, but as far as we know, he's tried turning Frieza purple, but he's adapted to the new supervillain shit he's been giving everyone, so they teamed up. They influenced (Super) Broly, destroyed Conton, and took control of Shenron who turned Frieza into a time god or something, he has that halo thing behind him that Zamasu and SKOT have.

This is either going to lead into Xenoverse 3, change the status quo for 2, or just be a big nothing burger with everything that went wrong being wished away with the DBs.
>>
>>544457886
>She also had pretty funny moments, but if you only watch le hype scenes then you don't see any.
I watched GT last year and I fail to recall any moment that is actually funny, much less any that involved Pan.
>>
DBM be like:
>we gonna make Pan a SSJ and do absolutely nothing with it and it won't matter in the slightest
so this is the great writing idea... of people who complain and cry about Pan not turning SSJ in GT...
>>
>>544460494
no fanfic writer ever wants Pan to do anything on her own. ultimately DBZ is a macho series, so having a girl actually hold her own flies contrary to that. Pan will only ever get two roles in fan works as a result:
>plot device for Gohan/Goku to get stronger
>jerk bait for paedophiles
even the canon slips into this, with stuff like Super Hero and the infamous deer scene in GT.

And all of this after the majority of fighters left too...

>>544463203
Telling a Pan storyline in this context is retarded. I understand the frog for not bothering on someone you have to try hard to make interesting.
>>
>>544463613
he did make a solid Pan storyline, he just gave it to his OC Son Bra instead.
>>
>>544463613
>I understand the frog for not bothering on someone you have to try hard to make interesting.
Thing is, he didn't try to make her work even within the context of the tournament
>Goku's Pan fights Bardock
>Casually crushes him while fangirling
>Vegetto's Pan has a match against Bojack
>Does okay before he transforms, but once she does she's quickly killed
>Goku's Pan has a match against Schizoku
>Goes super saiyan once Schizoku said he used to rape little girls
>Gives up anyway
And that's all both Pans did... Salagir pretended to do something that matters by giving Pan super saiyan, but does nothing of note with it. Can't even be excused there were no opportunities because this is a tournament, and then Babidi started his rampage, and she could have been excused as one of the characters who just happened to be in the apartment to stay, but no...

It would be better if Salagir stops pretending he did something for Pan. It's okay to do nothing with her. If you're focusing on 20 different characters/plot threads there is not enough narrative space for Pan.
In order to do Pan/Uub justice they need to take the "Gohan" role for a few arcs. If you aren't willing to do that then don't pretend you tried with them.
>>
>>544461143
>ultimately DBZ is a macho series,
Since when?
>>
>>544467727
Yeah, all he did was make her go super saiyan, and then have a brutal fight to, give Bra a reason to kill Zangya. She was killed for Bra's character development... Sound familiar?

Dragon ball is only "macho" for a stretch of like, 3 arcs at the most.
The franchise is silly absurdism that happens to be about fighting. Even when it's taking itself seriously it's never like , for the men
>>
>>544469935
Macho doesn't just mean "big explosions and blood and gore". More properly it describes core values. DBZ is about the value of hard work, brotherhood, fatherhood, self-improvement, and defending your kith & kin. A very strongly male-coded ethos. That's what macho actually is.
>>
Dragon Ball is about a monkey guy and his adventures. That is the core. If you keep adding onto it you're no better than a youtube essayist.

it's not a good game, but i do find the idea of a co-op, 3D version of what DBZ games on the GBA were like to be pretty novel. it's certainly one of the more interesting and ambitious games of that era, to say nothing for it's failure to live up to that ambition.

>>
>>544493303
make your own character, doofus. I was thinking of splitting it into two different types of Saiyan; the 'small' type like Vegeta and Goku and the 'big' type like Nappa and Broly. small ones are faster, big ones hit harder. RPG character builder so you can spec into different types of attacks and build your saiyan into whatever you want him or her to be. So you can spec out a guy who looks and fights like Broly, or Raditz, or Fasha, or Bardock, or whomever you want.

>>544496062
what isn't fun about getting to be evil? Imagine a tone like Destroy All Humans, where the aliens are all getting blown apart and buildings are getting nuked, and you're building up score based on how many of the little weaklings you can butcher in a combo. meanwhile your character is laughing and cracking jokes about how pathetic and stupid his quarry is.

>and there are only two combat styles: small and big

Or you could just make a musou where you fucking play as Goku or Piccolo or Frieza or any of the important characters first and then staple your dumb idea on later.

i'm pretty sure anything above Nappa solos all of pre-Boruto Naruto unless Saiyans are vulnerable to genjutsu. 6 Paths Madara might be able to beat Raditz and Nappa but a lot of that comes down to the fact that Madara's battle IQ is CONSIDERABLY higher than Raditz or Nappa's and that Madara knows a light speed laser style technique that could decapitate or bisect them. i fear Saiyan Saga Vegeta would be too fast and too tough for battle IQ to make up the difference, though.

Late Naruto was talking about 10 tails destroying mountains like it's an impressive feat, something Roshi did by accident all the way back in the first chapters. Naruto characters can't keep up with DB characters in raw power at all. Madara fighting Nappa would be the equivalent of Buu fighting Beerus.

the moon in Naruto is hollow and has a city built inside it, but in the Last Naruto movie before Boruto, the guy Naruto's fighting does cut that moon in half.
>Naruto characters can't keep up with DB characters in raw power at all.
unfortunately this doesn't really matter since even SS Blue characters can be pierced and killed by precise lasers, Super Saiyan Goku takes damage from the rock Krillin throws before the Cell Games, and because even Vegeta told Nappa to dodge the Kienzan Krillin threw because he believed it would cut him in half. i have every reason to believe Madara could get them with that. because he's also like 4 guys except 3 of them are invisible and intangible, and he has a respectable measure of regeneration.

nah it would need to be voiced. you'd only need 2-3 (male, different male, female).

In terms of physical strength I don't think Madara could touch them. speed alone would stonewall him. what He has going for him is Sharingan. genjutsu, plus amaterasu. both of which completely nullify strength difference.
Though, given how Super goes, maybe God ki nullifies genjutsu and amaterasu. who knows.

>>544498064
Madara is a light speed character and I don't think anyone in DB moves at light speed until Goku learns Instant Transmission, so i think Madara could at the least keep up with Nappa and Raditz and at best he's faster. plus as i mentioned he is 4 guys and 3 of them are invisible + intangible. Madara can't perform Amaterasu but he does have Rinnegan and can use all of Pain's abilities. Universal Push and Pull, Soul Absorption, Chakra Absorbtion, Rebirth, etc. he can also make clones of himself that have all his abilities in addition to the 3 limbo clones. and like i said, physical strength only means so much against light speed characters and light speed laser attacks in a universe where it's confirmed that even SSGSS users are vulnerable to precise laser beams.

i don't wanna get off on too big a side bar about this though because it's only tangentially on-topic and cause i'm not that invested in Madara beating Nappa anyway. i would be more invested if i thought he could make it to Namek and fight the Ginyu Force. he MIGHT be able to beat Saiyan Saga Vegeta if the invisible Madara's catch him off-guard and open him up to the laser beheading. lol
>>
>>544498791
the problem is the power scaling in DBZ is so high that Goku could legitimately just Kamehameha him and he would be vaporised instantly.
Amaterasu I'm pretty sure is an inherent ability of mangekyo sharingan, which Madara has. I don't remember what the rinnegan can do besides resurrection and remote eyesight.

>>
>>544499185
each Mangekyo user has a different unique ability. Sasuke and Itachi's was Amaterasu, Shisui's was Kotoamatsukami, Obito's is Kamui. Madara's is never shown except in an Ultimate Ninja Storm cutscene that probably isn't canon where he uses it to rewind time during a battle with Hashirama.

38,400 for all 8 cacs if you use TP medals
19,200 for all 8 cacs if you STP medals, 2,400 STP for level 160 to 180
>>
>>544502638
they do get all of those except Amaterasu. Amaterasu was the Sasuke and Itachi special. i think Itachi's was actually manifesting the flames and Sasuke's is controlling/extinguishing them. so when he has Perfect Mangekyo he has more complete control/mastery of it than Itachi did.

This is what I mean by Americans having a fundamentally different (and incorrect) understanding of DB.
"Macho" is the last word I'd use to describe DB because DB really isn't about that type of masculinity. The characters who could best be described as macho in that sense are ones who get inevitably humbled and change their ways, or die (the Saiyajins mainly).
Goku himself I've seen described as "macho", as a reason why Nozawa's voice doesn't fit him, but even ignoring that, Goku's character is not that of a traditionally masculine manly man.
He avoids responsibility, he's a pretty shit dad, he leaves his wife as a single mother, and none of his actions really evoke any core idea of "masculinity", rather they evoke the idea of a "free spirit" or even innate chilidishness.

If being a Saiyajin is the baseline for masculinity, then DB is, in fact, an anti-macho work.
Goku
>rejects his Saiyajin heritage
>cuts off his tail at the behest of Kami
>doesn't give a shit about his heritage whatsoever (until the last DBS manga arc, but who really cares about that)
>made Super Saiyajin into his own form rather than one beholden to emotions or intense bouts of temporary strength
Gohan
>literally does not want to fight
>ends up becoming a nerd and develops vision problems
Goten
>gives up on fighting entirely
>gets beat up by a little girl
Vegeta
>holds onto that Saiyajin pride the longest, but inevitable gives up on it
>retires into becoming a middle aged dad who doesn't fight anymore
Trunks

Something can be masculine but not actually about masculinity.
>Goku living for constant self improvement is nothing but masculine
Perhaps, but the way Goku goes about it isn't masculine. He has no endgoal and he's not doing this because he's a man, he's doing what he finds to be fun, and it's something no other character can actually relate to on the same level.
Tenshinhan is the hyper-masculine interpretation of what Goku does. Probably why the biggest Tenshinhanfag spams cuck porn really.
>Goku and everyone else fighting tooth and nail to defend what's theirs is inherently masculine.
Everyone else, maybe, but Goku, not really. Even then, the overarching joke of the Boo arc is that not a single fight in the entire arc is being taken seriously by one (if not all) parties involved.
>Every important character works out regularly and is a father.
And most of them are bad fathers.
Vegeta is literally not viewed by the narrative as a good father until he gives up his Saiyajin pride. His parenting skills prior to that are literally him beating up his son and endangering the planet for his own sake.
Gohan also is a good father, and he doesn't fight. At all. By the time he's a dad, he has already retired from fighting (until DBS retconned that so they could give him a new form).
Goku is not a great father and even the narrative acknowledges that. For Gohan's youth (which is Ages 0 to 16(+1) really), he is around for 7(+1) years of it. So, about half. He doesn't even meet Goten until the kid is 7.

>Thanks for admitting Goku does indeed endure great trials and tribulations just to defend what's right and what's his (a masculine action).
He does it because it's fun. A majority of his reasoning for training is less-so rooted in that "defending what's right" action and more-so in what Goku finds to be enjoyable. He doesn't want to fight Freeza because it's the right thing to do, he wants to fight him because it sounds fun.
>Thank you for not denying Goku also took out his son fishing (very masculine dad activity).

You posted three examples where he was immediately, personally affected by the situation at hand.
But what about the 23rd Tenkaichi Budokai, wherein he primarily cares about winning the tournament more than anything else going on there?
What about when he lets Vegeta live, even as Vegeta is saying "I will kill you all"?
What about when he is told to not fight Freeza, to not even go near him, and all he's thinking about is how fun it'd be to fight a guy "stronger than Vegeta"?
What about when he lets Gero make the artificial humans, even knowing that the future he was warned about was one where everyone he was talking to aside from one person was dead?
What about the entire Boo arc, where Goku does pretty much everything solely for himself with the sole exception of teaching the fusion dance.

In the case of Vegeta fighting cell, it was Vegeta wanting to pure beat down cell and dominate the fight. Saiyans do like to fight in the sense that they like to beat people up and win. Goku likes to fight for the sake of the fight itself. Of course he'd prefer to win, but it's not that important to him if he loses, unless he's about to die or something. Given how the usual plan was just to instantly nuke a planet with Oozaru, and how power levels at birth matter the most out of anything, I can't really fathom that fighting to get stronger is all that important for most saiyans.

Extra material like Z Broly supports this interpretation. For the entire Broly movie, Broly was trying to bait out something from the Z fighters.
>fanfics
If the Saiyan in question was raised on Earth, had extensive contact with Goku's gang. or had a martial arts master, it's a fair interpretation. If it's some rogue then giving them the Namek Bejita like of beating on those weaker than them is better.
>>
>>544527303
While I do agree with the overall thesis that if it's a saiyan raised on earth, then them having Waku Waku is fine, I disagree with that panel exactly implying Vegeta has the Waku Waku, Vegeta during his fight with 17 and 18 wasn't going "wow sugoi, you're really strong!" like Goku would have, he was seething and getting extremely frustrated that he isn't able to immediately clobber them and show his superiority like he did to android 20
>>
>>544527689
I would also argue that Vegeta never really gained the Waku Waku until after the majin vegeta fight. The entire point of him getting Majin was because Goku was stronger than him, after all. If he had the Waku Waku as Goku described it in saiyan saga, that would make him excited, not frustrated.

And Multiverse doesn't even use the usual Bra for that, Salagir went out of his way to create another Bra, who's actually Vegetto's daughter, not Vegeta, just to explain why she's so strong... Ignoring that hybrids are already absurdly strong by default, and one who actually bothered to train would be overwhelming... But in DBM, only Vegetto's Bra is allowed to be that strong, Goku's Bra is doesn't train, and both Pans are jobbers despite training, which's specially ridiculous since DBM follows the usual headcanon of "being born from a later point in the timeline when a saiyan is strong will make the hybrids even stronger", so despite Pan being born from a permanent Ultimate Gohan who never became any weaker, she's still a jobber.

I think the goofiest thing about prime timeline multiverse pan is her never getting super saiyan. A powerup so basic that Toriyama thought nothing of giving it to two 7 year olds who didn't even know what a super saiyan was before getting it, and pan despite actively training with both her grandfather and vegeta somehow ends up not only being more of a wet noodle than goten and trunks, but also never getting super saiayn.

Because of Patreon's rules he didn't post the full, incest version there, and Kemono only has the Patreon version, where Trunks is replaced with a faceless dude who's Bra's boyfriend.

Vegeta really isn't aping it in DBS, it's far more of a hobby for him. He'll abandon the training to go be with his wife when she's about to give birth for example, which Goku doesn't get (because he missed the birth of his second son).
People think DB is a story about genetics but it's a story about mindset. Goku's mindset is distinct even among 'battle coloured warriors' like the Saiyajin.
Vegeta retires from any similar mindset when he lets go of his pride and naturalizes. His anguish over being completely outclassed by Goku was the last remnant of his pride, and the Boo arc resolved that.

The problem is that Goku was caught offguard plenty of times by attacks and tanked them like it was nothing because he's just that strong. The laser is a clunky way to implement Goku's weakness as a warrior but it just makes no sense for it to hurt him that bad.

Dragon Ball has shown how characters need to upkeep in training and treat their bodies like a temple of worship. Neglecting said training means even the most basic foundations will start to form cracks, and be the catalyst to ultimate defeat. Krillin and Goku have shown what happens when neglecting training, they can even get grazed by handgun bullets.

>>544544629
>Goku tanked bullets and rocket launchers like nothing.
Even if I wanted to say how it's bad writing, or cope how lasers are vastly different from conventional weapons, the explanation was given in the beginning and end of the arc. Goku is too strong for his own good, his overconfidence often put others and himself in danger, Freeza mocks him for this flaw. Yet powerscaler debunkers insist on treating that laser like Superman is to Kryptonite. It's disingenuous as fuck, to the point of being purposely obtuse.

Writing so bad, they rewrote the scene in Super, and had Goku power down completely.

You have to be careful when planting Zarbon. While he is much more damaging than Dodoria, he's easier to hit in general, plus he takes a while to attack at longer distances, so you have to find the sweet spot to plant him in advance... I have a theory that planting Zarbon, dashing backwards, then planting Dodoria can be good, for Dodoria to protect Zarbon.

Saiyans aren't onthologically evil or anything, the main reason why Goku is good is because Grandpa Gohan raised him that way.

That's what's always irked me about DB fanfics. They take Goku’s love for fighting and slap it onto every Saiyan character like it’s part of their DNA. Suddenly, every Saiyan OC is a “battle maniac” who lives to fight and train and yell about getting stronger and boom, now every interaction is just Goku talking to his own clones.

From what we're shown in canon:
>Vegeta
Prideful, calculating, wants to be the best to beat Goku, not because he loves fighting in a vacuum. His relationship with combat is personal, not spiritual.
>Broly (Super)
Dude’s a trauma-ridden mess who fights because he has to, not because he loves it. The moment he gets peace, he wants to chill with animals. A Saiyan hippie with trauma rage.
>Raditz
A coward who never improved himself and trained to overcome his tail weakness that even Goku eventually did. Wasn’t looking for a fight, was just bullying people weaker than himself and started begging for his life when the bullied fought back. Also, he's one of the few Saiyans who's afraid of dying.
>Nappa
Arrogant soldier. Treats fights like a form of dominance and ego-stroking, not as sacred tests of strength.

Even Bardock, before Minus, wasn’t fighting for fun. He was a cold mercenary who got dragged into caring about something. There’s almost no Saiyan besides Goku who fights purely for the sake of fighting. In my AU fanfic that I'm developing, I even have a Saiyan who's raised on Namek and he doesn't fight because he's a battle junkie, and to him, training is just a means to an end to protect. Otherwise, he mostly wants to be left alone and isn't really interested in tagging along with Goku and the others.

Yeah it's weird. Cell does claim it's part of saiyans to want a good fight, but that and being like Goku are different things. Saiyans are brutes who want to fight to dominate, but they don't want to lose. Vegeta himself was seething the whole time once Cell powered up too much. Self improvement is an unknown concept to them, which's why the entire race are mostly weak shitters where someone with a power level of 1000 is considered a huge deal, this despite them being capable of becoming the strongest beings in the universe...

>Dude’s a trauma-ridden mess who fights because he has to, not because he loves it. The moment he gets peace, he wants to chill with animals. A Saiyan hippie with trauma rage.
He does show an interest in fighting Goku later, and he's in Beerus' planet in Super Hero to improve.

They could have even made it it a reward for suffering through Broly and Cheelai become your Nakama VN they came up with, what a waste of resources!

And finally why the fuck is a torn up Goku gi a custome outfit? who the hell wanted that? Let alone Vegeta's normalfag clothing when we already have it with the Badman outfit

>>544564580
Even if you do take the whole "saiyans are a warrior race, we love fighting" verbatim and just slap goku's love of fighting onto other characters, narratively all it does is make it so Goku has no character, he's just a default saiyan but kind of nice, and with nothing unique about him he tends to instantly fall out of plot relavence in a lot of fics that dont center around him

Hell, he should have married Mai. They're both ruthless outlaws, but they're vain and hopeless romantics. Plus, then the Mai we see in Super turns out to be Yamcha's daughter he had with Mai from a one-night stand after cheating on Bulma who became Trunks' love interest.

It's comedy that writes itself. Yamcha and Bulma were dysfunctional and doomed, but their kids are total sweethearts. Would also make Vegeta irritated that his son gets with Yamcha's child. I know DB has shitty ships like any other shounen, but Trunks and Mai feels like a crackship on steroids.

He fights him out of necessity. He says twice that he'll listen to Kaio and dodge Freeza. Then he says he'll take down Freeza to avenge Saiyans and Namekians. Do you even read the manga you're discussing, retard?
>Because Goku also abandons his family only a few days after that, and doesn't see or speak to them until they have something he wants
Reductionism goes crazy. Goku is stranded on another planet after that and slightly delays his return so he can complete his training, training for an ability that eventually allows him to save the Earth (multiple times). It's absolutely fine.

>>544521897
>But what about the 23rd Tenkaichi Budokai, wherein he primarily cares about winning the tournament more than anything else going on there?

It's an outlier, explicitly called "selfish" by himself, and he even questions his own choice later, saying it could have been a mistake. This isn't regular Goku.

Goku did not take his son to "go fishing" during Namek, so I don't know what you're talking about there.
Him and Gohan going fishing is specifically a Cell arc thing, maybe even anime original (I'm not gonna go double check). And near immediately after that, he abandons his family for seven years.
>Piccolo isn't a world conqueror yet.
It's the same guy. Piccolo Daimao and Ma Junior are the same person for all intents and purposes, Kami knows this, Piccolo knows this, Goku knows this, everyone knows this.
He also knows that Piccolo is solely there to kill and humiliate Goku, and that he will immediately resume taking over and destroying the world once the tournament is over.
> This isn't regular Goku.
That's a cope and you know it, because he tries to do the same thing with Freeza several times in the same fight.
>Everyone did the same. Is Tenshinhan or Krillin a psychopath for doing so? Why does it only apply to Goku?
Because Goku is the one who initiated that conversation.

He dies. Everyone treats this as a legitimate outcome and not an absentee father. Call it cheap drama or whatever, this isn't about Goku's character, this is about how Dragon Ball is written as a story.

>It's the same guy. Piccolo Daimao and Ma Junior are the same person
Who cares? Goku is going to win. He knows that, he's confident. So he's taking this as a tournament fight, the tournament he never got to win, to show he's the strongest in the world. That's peak T.
>That's a cope and you know it, because he tries to do the same thing with Freeza several times in the same fight
This isn't even nearly the same thing. Goku wanted to humiliate Freeza first. He never wanted to see his face again. You cannot read, nigger. You're an illiterate baboon.
>Because Goku is the one who initiated that conversation.
He's the only one who actually brought up an ethical argument in this discussion. Everyone else was all "yeah I want to test my power". This is how Dragon Ball works as a universe. Things aren't so serious. You're an illiterate retard.

There you go. Here's your context because you're too retarded to remember what you're responding to.

It is being an absentee father when he can, and does, come back.
>Who cares? Goku is going to win. He knows that, he's confident. So he's taking this as a tournament fight
I don't see how this is against my point. The world is in jeopardy, God himself literally comes down for this and insists Goku kill him, Goku barely even wins and is left in a worst state than after the first Piccolo fight, you're just headcanoning this idea that "oh he was just confident, that's why this thing that is literally against my homoerotic fixations is real".

Which is why he tries to let Freeza live THREE SEPARATE TIMES.

Yes let's ignore the entire context of this fight and the loss of innocence Goku experiences in it, with him getting the villain speech bubbles as a Super Saiyan and trying to regain control against all odds but failing because Freeza is just that much of an asshole. By the way, it's two. First for humiliation, second for more nuanced reasons.

I always feel like Gohan playing around with buu and Vegeto always get too much hate when most of the arc is bullshit like that. Gohan only "played around" with buu for barely 8 chapters, Goku did the same with frieza when he first went super saiyan and no one gives him shit. Vegeto also at least has the justification that he didn't want to murder his family
>>
>>544579028
>crush the potara against kid buu
Crushing the potara isn't great but not using the potara is a perfectly reasonable choice, it means they have to "die" to kill Buu. They don't want to.
>treating the fight like a total joke
They played RPS once to decide turns. They didn't really nerf themselves, fighting 2v1 wouldn't really help in any way. If anything Vegeta could have gone first while Goku charged up his ki but they didn't know how strong Buu was or whether or not Goku was going to be too tired because >alive SS3

Freeza was a known quantity. He had done everything he could possibly do.
Boo could constantly regenerate and while absorption wasn't entirely known to everyone at that point, Gohan was toying with him to an absurd degree already (for someone who was calling Boo names by that point).

>The entire initial approach to Babidi
Not so much. I mean, what if they do things differently and kill Babidi's minions? Would Babidi come out of his hideout? Would he escape to another planet? Who knows. At that point they don't even know he has Dabura, so he might feel compelled to escape which could ruin their plan.
>Everyone treating the initial fights like a game
Which didn't change anything
>Vegeta willingly getting controlled by Babidi
That's not being stupid, that's a mid life crisis.
>Goku playing along with Vegeta to the point where Boo had enough power to get out
Vegeta wasn't going to let him do anything else. Using SS3 to beat Vegeta's ass would probably have its own issues depending on how power absorption works (if Babidi can absorb Vegeta's power being depleted then he's got what he needs to awaken Buu). Plus they didn't think it'd be enough to wake him up.
>Wasting the dragon balls on the people Vegeta killed
How is this a waste? Bulma and Yamcha had no idea about what was going on iirc, and it didn't matter at all at any point.
>Gotenks rushing to fight Boo
>Gotenks stalling to be dramatic during his second fight with Boo
Character trait, he's a child on steroids. Not "plot induced stupidity"
>Gohan playing around with Boo
Did he play around? Buu blew himself up right after Gohan unleashed his first combo. Toriyama might as well have shown Buu blow himself up mid beatdown right before being killed. Unless a character is calling out someone for playing around (eg: Gohan SS2, Gotenks) I don't think it counts as playing around narratively speaking.
>Goten and Trunks getting goaded by Boo
If they didn't, Buu absorbs Gohan instead. End of the world.
>>
>>544579552
>>544580495
>Vegetto risking absorption by Boo
He doesn't 100% know if killing Buu will allow him to revive his dead buds. It's not that big of a reach, he was 100% right about his shield working.
>Vegetto dropping his aura inside Boo
True. Plot convenience.
>Goku letting Gohan, Piccolo, Trunks, and Goten die to save Mr. Satan and Dende (this only becomes smart in hindsight)
That's not plot induced stupidity, that's a very Goku thing to do. He tried to save everyone, jump at the opportunity, and failed. If you reread the scene, you'll see he didn't even have the time to teleport with Satan and Dende at all, Kibitoshin had to pick them up. It's a "panic reaction" moment, not a stupidity moment.
>Vegeta and Goku refusing to fuse again and destroying the earrings
See above, there's no reason to go and die when they think they can actually take Buu now. And they have options. As shown by Vegeta later they could revive Gohan and Gotenks.

Goku ABSOLUTELY recklessly stalls out the fight against Frieza, it wasn't some kind of stalling tactic, he actively stood there and waited for frieza to reach his full power to prove a point, this could have easily backfired on Goku and he's very lucky that he didn't

Letting Freeza power up because he wants to fuck him up at his best and humiliate him can be called reckless (or rather blind rage), but he also had a baseline, he knew this was Freeza at 70% (unless Freeza was lying but whatever). He wanted to fuck him up.

I'm saying calling him "reckless" implies he didn't think about how things would go for Gohan's (or his own) escape plan, which is wrong because >>544580860 he was following Gohan's ki and planning around all of that. Taking into account the distance to his own ship and going for Freeza's later when he runs out of time. He's not acting in blind rage.

Power aside, there's also the fact that Frieza wasn't a known quality by that point due to him not taking the fight seriously whatsoever until the spirit bomb. Frieza easily could have been hiding a ton of techniques that he hadn't used yet that could have caught even super saiyan Goku off guard. He wasn't, of course, but I don't really think Frieza was percieved to be entirely out of options by that point, Goku just didn't think it'd matter because he's the super saiyan. Which I would in fact call reckless when he had the option to end the fight right then and there and easily chose not to.

Given the way Goku was dominating him and Freeza said he was at 70% when he kiai'd Goku (probably unlikely to lie), I think Goku didn't go on a crazy gamble there. Unreasonable given the circumstances and not something regular Goku would do? Probably, Cell Goku would go against that. But it's definitely not a gamble on the level of letting Vegeta go. That one was unreasonable, and called out for it.
>>
>>544582471
the weirdest thing is that Goku said several times very explicitly and with no ambiguity that he's not going to let frieza stall for time, and right before frieza blows up namek it looks like he's going for the kill shot with a kamehameha. But after failing to blow up namek, Goku randomly gets super cocky and just lets the fight drag despite there being a very strict time limit

He says he's not going to waste time, but then lets Freeza hit him to go "is that it, faggot?". Then he thinks about Gohan's escape plan which indicates he's actually buying time for him... but right after that he goes for a kill shot with his Kamehameha. It's a bit messy but not entirely inconsistent, I can see him acting like that in the heat of the battle, not strictly following a set plan.

The thing i'm confused about is why exactly is Goku buying time for Gohan. He's the one who controls the pace of the fight and had several chances to take out frieza during the fight. Prolonging the fight against frieza wont somehow make namek explode slower.

Piccolo Jr was more like "hey I'll stay ahead and keep you in check, you're a nice rival and we don't want to lose Kami". Vegeta was 100% about the salty runback. I guess you could say Goku believed Piccolo and Vegeta were the strongest guys, hence sparing them to keep someone on his level?

>that's kind of what he was doing with Frieza
Too different. The Freeza fight is full of hatred and spite, there's no real room for martial arts here.
>>
>>544583454
The back tingle hate is honestly extremely overblown. Caulifla and Cabba only ever do it for basic super saiyan, which by that point had long been a free powerup that required very little effort to gain. Caulifla and especially cabba had to earn 2 the more traditional way.

Goku is so full of shit with that claim might as well be Indian. Not only Goku used up most of his time on Earth while not doing anything at all to Buu, Buu was clearly taking the fight much less seriously than Goku too. And like you said, his fight with Kid Buu only supports that Goku wouldn't be able to do much to Fat Buu.

>Buu was clearly taking the fight much less seriously than Goku
Goku was trying not to blow up the Earth.

He had a pretty decent advantage on Kid Buu and was right about his ability to destroy him, just wrong on how SS3 worked on a living body. Since he's using a dead body in that fact I'm pretty confident he could've gone all out and taken him out.
>>
>>544585207
They're sort of half siblings anon...
>>
>>544586074
not only does it consume stamina, it consumes time. Just that short skirmish between Goku and fat buu consumed basically all of his time on earth. There was honestly no chance of him beating fat buu imo.
>>
>>544586248
And?
>>
>>544586239
Advantage? Anon they were entirely stalemated and Goku required sitting there and powering up to put him down. Dead goku would not have had the time to do that and would get forced back to otherworld
>>
>>544586450
He landed a few more hits but Kid Buu had regen. Point is, he had an accurate reading on Kid Buu and what he needed to put him down. So whether or not you want to believe his reading of Fat Buu was right is up to you. I think it wasn't a 100% success rate but he had decent odds of killing him
>>
>>544586586
fat buu also has regen, though? They're also of similar strengths. Kid buu is a far more agressive fighter, sure, but Goku would have needed the same amount of strength to put him down and I dont think he had that
>>
>>544586716
>They're also of similar strengths
Are they? Who knows.

Goku was far more challenged by Kid Buu. I think he wasn't full of shit when he said Fat Buu was doable, but not that easy either. Could've fucked up.

Fat buu also wasn't taking the fight seriously remotely. The second it looked like fat buu himself was about to retaliate goku stopped the fight, so it's unknown how really challenging he would've been

I mostly backported Goku's fighting spirit onto every other Saiyan.

>Goku was trying not to blow up the Earth.
He's had fights like that before, he knows what to do. During the fight Buu constantly shows off and Goku is shocked at how good he is.

>He had a pretty decent advantage on Kid Buu
He did not. Goku even comments he's trying what he can to kill Buu and hasn't had the chance to do it, and Buu isn't even taking the battle seriously.

>Since he's using a dead body in that fact I'm pretty confident he could've gone all out and taken him out.
I seriously don't see that, the fight was short, Goku didn't do much during it, and still used up most of his time on Earth. Any serious battle would use even more, and I doubt Goku would be able to pull it off.

>>544586306
Yeah. Goku even starts the fight with Kid Buu with a kamehameha, and used it again at a later point, both of which destroyed a lot of Buu's body, but it wasn't nearly enough. I don't see a dead body making any difference besides making him tire less.

GT did not "carry the IP on its back for decades", DBZ did. That's why GT is barely more than a footnote in most of the games and the form is only used for the obligatory BT3 CPU vs CPU cock measuring contest.

Is OG dragon ball (not Z) kinda overrated to people? A lot of hipsters like to say it's better than Z and I do like it's charm but honestly.... most of DB arcs outside of 23rd (which is top 3 for sure), piccolo daimao, and maybe 21st/22nd are meh. Didn't care much for RRA since it was a fucking stomp with Goku except for Tao but that was a speedbump. Pilaf was meh. Baba saga was neat but not much.

I don't think OGDB in general is overrated, but I do think Pilaf saga is. People act like it's PEAK dragonball to the point where both Daima and GT try to ape it. I think the real reason those both failed is that pilaf saga just wasn't that good. It's not terrible or anything by any stretch of the imagination but it's pretty obviously experimental and stuff just kinda happens.

Japan is a different matter, I think they generally do like Kid Goku the most (not any of the Kid Goku sagas, but the character himself). in the west it's Z all the way. a lot of westerners never even saw the original series, or didn't watch it until years after having seen Z. so their perception of it is different.
because of circumstances I did end up watching DB for the first time in chronological order, so I saw Kid Goku before Z Goku. That colours my perception of the original series.

While we're on the topic, it's kind of interesting to me just how Goku wasn't actually on the backfoot in a good bit of his fights, especially the tournament ones. During his fight against Tien, Tien never actually seriously hurts Goku, and Goku counters every gimmick he throws at him to the point where Tien has to essentially nuke the entire arena to force a knock out, and it's a similar story with Piccolo Junior until he throws a cheap shot into his shoulder. Roshi did put him in the backfoot with thunder shock suprise but that was also kind of a cheap shot.

I didn't watch Dragon Ball in chronological order but everyone I've shown the series to has. I don't think the perspective is all that different. if anything they put a slightly higher emphasis on how weird it is to think the monkey boy from the mountains is the one who's stronger than gods and built a generation spanning legacy.
I like Goku as a dad more than as a kid

Now you’re just talking out of your ass.
It wasn’t “new”, it’s just a re-issue of a figure from 2011.
also they only did that because they got word of chinks making their own version of him.

I think Goku's reactivity is something that genuinely gets lost in Z. You see it a bit in Saiyan Saga against great ape vegeta and him puzzling out how to defeat frieza in namek, but after that it's basically entirely gone.

The hard facts:

Dragon Ball (manga, OG-Z anime) = Original Trilogy (the classic, the best)
GT = Early EU (many good and bad ideas, including shit like the Ewok stuff)
Post-GT (games, Online, early Heroes, up to Yo! Son Goku and Friends Return) = Middle EU (actual new ideas, but also lot of trash)
Revival Era (BoG to Superhero and all inbetween) = Prequels and later EU (popular, controversial, attracted a new and younger audience, lore nerds seethe at many parts of it)
Daima = CGI Clone Wars (the tail end of the original stuff, controversial, contradictory)
Whatever is next = Mouse Wars, especially Sequels (corporate, soulless, only the fanboys running the side material care about it as a story and not a product for better or worse)

watching from the beginning gives backstory to Goku's growth as a man, adds weight to the things he does particularly in the Saiyan and Namek sagas, and it establishes who his friends are beyond being peanut gallery jobbers. I believe Z is better than original, but seeing original improves Z. like, imagine seeing Empire before New Hope. Empire on its own is a great movie, but seeing New Hope elevates Empire to an amazing movie.

Nah. Z Broly having more units on Dokkan Battle is more than enough proof of his popularity and people use him more than Super Broly on FighterZ because he's objectively better meta, look it up yourself, Zly is always ranked on top tier in the FGC while Nuly is low tier. Tamashii Nations also re-released a Zly figure for the 40th anniversary and it sold out day 1. You said Nuly is more popular than Zly, any proof of that?

I prefer the rounder art style, but I agree. The constant tournament arcs got old, RRA was fine outside of Muscle Tower, the first arc was fun enough, but I don't see why GT and Daima tried to recreate it, specially since both of them miss the sense of adventure, and how to use Goku.

In many fanfics, Pan gets paired with Trunks or Uub not for any logical reason but because of soap opera "pair the spares" reasons, where main characters must end up together. Similarly, Goten and Bra, even though Goten has a girlfriend in GT.

Kino because both are second children and uniting the Goku and Bejita bloodlines. Goten's GT girlfriend is a huge nothingburger. Cheating is Dragon Ball essence and Goten could just break up with her since they're only dating. It's implied Palace is at least Goten's second gf.
>Pan and Trunks
Similar to above with the addition of both of them spending an entire year together in a small spaceship in GT.

Goku's grandaughter x his student. In fics where Goku trains both they'd get plenty of time to be with each other.
None of what you listed are really "pair the spares"

Lucas was a visionary, but as a businessman, he was bad at making decisions. And even as a producer and director, he was bad. Lucas had only directed two real films before the prequels (American Graffiti and Star Wars). I don't count THX-1138 because that began as a student film. Regardless, he actually had minimal experience as a director prior to the prequels. This is an incredibly significant fact that seems completely lost upon by most people. People seem to believe that he helmed the first 3 Star Wars films and perhaps the Indiana Jones series. He did not. After he directed A New Hope in 1976/1977, he did not direct again until the prequels more than 20 years later.

The prequels pretty much prove that left to his own devices, he is a horrible director. It doesn't surprise me in the least that he chooses to not direct any more films lest more people understand how poor a director he actually is. It's very telling that the best Star Wars movie, Empire Strikes Back, wasn't directed by Lucas and that his ex-wife Marcia practically saved A New Hope thanks to her editing. I think when he made the prequels, he got a bit full of himself and surrounded himself with yes men who couldn't reign in on his bad ideas and compromise with him like the people who worked on the original trilogy.

Same thing with Toriyama. His original editors were beasts. Besides discovering him, Torishima was the one who introduced Toriyama to fights, tournaments, power escalation, the rivalries, etc. He even told Toriyama to tone down on the gags and work on his biggest strength: 3D movement to draw good fights. He wanted to make DB a less preachy Hokuto no Ken with a bigger focus on action and cool one-liners. Hell, even when Torishima wasn't Toriyama's editor at the time, he still personally called to tell him how lame Android 17/18/19/20 were (and they were lame lmao) leading up to Cell.

Okay, this has happened enough times now that I am 100% convinced 17's skill 2 is bugged.

Notice how the skill clearly lands in this clip and it does absolutely nothing. The skill didn't miss, not only is Kale clearly in range (basically point blank) but 17 himself stops as if he had hit something, which he clearly does. It just doesn't do anything to Kale.
If I had to guess, the skill has two separate hitboxes: one is for detecting collision and making 17 stop when it hits an enemy, the other is the actual skill hitbox that applies the damage and slow/stagger to the enemy. I suspect the former is bigger than the latter causing the skill to whiff very often, in my experience it is nearly guaranteed to miss if the enemy is moving away from you in any way, no matter how slowly. The collision hitbox detects it has "hit" an enemy and makes 17 stop, and the hitbox of the skill itself never reaches the enemy.

Is there any way to report this?

>>544593062
I don't want Broly with Cheelai because the result won't make for a strong hybrid

The reason why half-Saiyans are stronger than pure Saiyans is because human blood has an extremely good compatibility with Saiyan blood because of biological similarities, more than that, apparently Saiyan/Human hybrids without tails are stronger and more talented than the ones with tails, this even reminds me of how the Saiyans in Universe 6 who evolved to have no tails and thus are stronger and more talented than those in Universe 7. Mixing with Humans may well be the best evolutionary path for Saiyans

>The tailless second generation are super ultra child prodigies. Saiyan genes have an extraordinarily good compatibility with Earthling blood. Because of this, when the two races are mixed together children with formidable power are born. Particularly, those Halflings born without tails hide an exceptional battle power. There are many things that they naturally master from a young age, such as the ordinarily arduous transformation into a Super Saiyan. In spite of having such an outstanding battle sense, they do not have a fondness for battle like a pure Saiyan. Instead, it seems that the violent temperament of the Saiyan has been relaxed through their Earthling blood.
Seeing as Broly hasn't gotten with Cheelai (mostly because the writers are scared to go beyond EoZ), I'd make a human wife for Broly in my fanfic just so I can have a strong hybrid. Also, same age as Pan and Bulla for a girl group

The reason DB blew up the way it did is because of the fights and not Toriyama's toilet humor. Had it just been Toriyama, this series would have ended as early as the Pilaf arc.
>"Up until the Tenka’ichi Budōkai began, the series hadn’t been all that popular. That’s what Torishima-san had told me. “Your protagonist is rather plain. That’s why it’s not popular.”, he said. Personally, since I was doing a fighting story for this series, I had intentionally made the protagonist’s clothing excessively plain.
>So this annoyed me, but then I figured it out. “Well, let’s increase its popularity” I thought. When I had designed Goku’s character, the words that best represented him were “I want to become strong”. So I thought I’d bring that to the front. Even during “Dr. Slump”, the tournament-like events such as the Penguin Village Gran Prix or the Mini-Event had been amazingly popular. So I’d simply make the story into a tournament format. From there the Tenka’ichi Budōkai was born. I temporarily withdrew the other characters besides Goku, brought back Kame-Sen’nin, and added Kuririn as a new character. From there it got popular before I knew it."
His stubbornness and flair played well with Toriyama's genius because he could compromise with what Toriyama wants and what the fans actually wants. And he also turned down a lot of Toriyama's ideas, give or take. We all think we have the best idea in our heads, but that doesn't mean the idea is actually good and Toriyama had a lot of bad, stupid ideas.

Torishima literally called Toyotarou a terrible manga artist in the same podcast where he called Daima trash in front of the people who made the show (Iyoku, Nakatsuru).
>Torishima (Mashirito): “Hmm... Sorry, but what’s his name again, the one who wrote Dragon Ball Super?”

>Others: “Toyotarou.”

>Torishima: “Yeah, Toyotarou. Him, and even Shibata (the editor for Beet the Vandel Buster), they’re both bad at manga. They can’t even do the basics.”

>“Things like: why do you divide a page this way, how do you guide the reader’s eye, how do you compose a scene? Editors don’t even understand those fundamentals, so they can’t check it. As long as there are drawings on the page, they think it’s fine, but it’s not real manga.”

>“So it’s not that the Super manga is bad, it’s that the editors are idiots for not checking properly.”

>Torishima (Mashirito): “Honestly, just like with Dragon Ball Super, they should’ve just done a Vegeta story instead. That whole Daima thing is crap. If they’re going to make an anime like that, they’d be better off making Vegeta’s story. That’s what people would actually want to see. Even overseas, like in France, it’d blow up.”
He would definitely also chew him out for pitching that awful Granolah arc.

telling someone that something is bad to their face is fine, and is objectively the job of the editor. Talking shit about people in a project you weren't personally involved in during an interview to the whole world is pretty shitty behavior.

I've been thinking about it, and I think the way I can summarize my thoughts on Daima is like, you know how a popular game series sometimes gets side games that are in a genre you don't care for at all and the story just feels kinda like filler? Daima felt like that to me. Inoffensive and doesn't make me think lesser of the series but I really prefer we get back to the "main" plot
>>
>>544647754
>thread sperg woke up.

Yeah Daima felt like a complete filler series. It was tonally a bad JRPG without anything that makes a JRPG fun. It lacked anything that made the ohh gee dee bee good. Everyone just wanted to finish off super. It felt like we were sent back hard. To go from everyone aging up to becoming babies felt like a betrayal. I was reading some reactions to the Daima trailer a few hours ago. It was all like that.

All my placements on that list are super subjective to my personal tastes. Shadow Dragons specifically gets by with the concept of the shadow dragons and omega shenron alone, which is probably my favorite villain. I love how full circle the arc brings the franchise even though the writing left a lot to be desired

Putting an arc that high on concept alone seems a bit weird, especially when the execution of said concept is so questionable. the IDEA of the shadow dragons being based on their wishes basically only really exists on paper, none of them have anything to do with their wishes aside from a very basic surface level for like, two of them.

New stuff usually is worse than old stuff. World civilization as a whole is regressing from the 20th century. Of course cultural exports such as media will be worse. Creative fiction is representative of the society that made it.

It looks awful. And on top of that it's another "start off at Raditz" story. That other Chinese game actually started off with original dragon ball and they refused to release it globally and then let it die.

How would you incorporate Daima into DBS?
>>
>>544657678
I"m really not sure they can be? Daima is very much so a self contained thing that doesn't really link much into anything that super is doing. Even super saiyan 4 is pretty outdated by this point.
>>
>>544657678
There's literally no need to. The franchise is filled with plot holes and inconsistencies and them not mentioning things that happened or people they met. I'd find it believable if, in the next movie or tv series, Goku and Vegeta say they've tried to unlock Super Saiyan 4 but couldn't and then go from there.

But barring Super Saiyan 4, what else from Daima would there be worth adding? Just make a DBS inspired SS4 (Ikari?) and call it a day.
>>
I think Cell is the worst saga desu.
It just goes by too quick, villains change way too often, the actual final fight is a wet fart because for some reason gohan has to go OOC (shut up, no way he thought cell could be reasoned with). android are insanely wasted in this saga. Trunks is insanely wasted too.
>>
>>544657678
SSJ4 is a powerup that requires magic to use rather than ki, meaning that it doesn't actually have a place in Super until we have a support character that can either teach Goku magic or give him the powerup when necessary.

Then id do Super Sayan 4 UI Goku vs Evil Eye Black Frieza as the final boss before we finally get to End of Z
>>
>>544658125
Eh, I agree with you on all of those issues for cell but Buu has basically all of those issues but worse. Kid buu is still my favorite villian on his fighting style alone but the saga is a pure mess
>>
>>544658125
and before someone says "what about Boo!"
Boo has consistency issues too but it's held up by Giant Spirit Bomb and how wacky it is. Stakes get pretty high as Buu actually succeeds in killing everyone on the planet. It's honestly one of the best "final" arcs in anything I've watched/read because Toriyama wanted to end it and he just ended it with cramming as much creativity and neat stuff as possible even if it didn't really blend together as well as people think. Cell saga just felt like wasted potential and I get it because his editors kept getting him to change the villain so his ideas probably were a lot more reworked and bounced so it's not as smooth as Saiyan or Frieza. Boo felt like a middle finger to his editors and I can appreciate that.

>But barring Super Saiyan 4, what else from Daima would there be worth adding?
I liked Hyubis and Kuu and Duu, but yeah I wouldn't be sad if we never saw them again outside of Daima related things. Panzy and Glorio were boring, Anrisnu was like a discount Towa, Degusu was the biggest disappointments in the whole show, and Gomah was cool but that third eye form was a disappointment.

I think I'd like to see Neva and Marva again? I'm not too sure. I can't say I like them too much as characters, but I liked the lore they brought with them, and their powers. They're pretty much what I wanted when they first started talking about Daima.
>>
I really do wonder how it would've been if 19 and 20 were kept as the true bosses of the arc like Toriyama had intended them to be. Their designs genuinely do kinda suck, but maybe it was a shorter arc like saiyan saga?
>>
anime wise it's weird how Cell Saga had the most insert songs crammed into there but iirc had the worst animation out of all the sagas. Maybe it's just the amount of money they spinned into side material since I remember Cell Saga movies/games/etc was when they went FULL marketing unga bunga. Always confused me though.

Why does the spirit bomb work that way, though. Like, the way the scene is phrased it's not like it's a new idea they thought of for this specific instance or something, they're acting like the spirit bomb always worked by having people give their energy, it's kinda odd.

That doesn't matter. He's the one who told Toriyama to work on his strength and he had a very sharp critical eye. The fact that Toriyama changed villains in the Android Saga because Torishima was not impressed says a lot about how Toriyama both respected and resented him. Manga is a collaborative effort, not a one-man show.

>>544659340
I may have 99 problems with buu saga, but buu himself is not one of them. He's easily the most unique villian in the whole series and genuinely feels like a whole different beast compared to cell or frieza. Most of Cell's really unique traits were lost after imperfect, imo.

>>544635570
Build Up, Steel Skin/Solid Barrier (It depends on who you're fighting), then pick whatever as the third card but, Limit Breaking Jump is recommended.

It always worked that way but iirc Goku only took from inanimate objects before and not animate objects.
I mean I get what you're saying but I don't think it's a huge plot hole to go "oh fuck inanimate objects won't be enough, I need the people of earth to give me their energy too"

I mean my issue is more that it's vegeta being the one to come up with the plan, how the fuck does he know how the spirit bomb works

huh went back to read and actually yeah. he shouldn't really know how it works lol. that's actually a really good catch. if you wanna head canon it, he could've asked gohan how it worked but that doesn't really make sense either since he never saw gohan really until the 28th world tournament.

uhhh side effect of being vegito then i guess?
>>
>>544660394
it's doubly funny because vegeta is one of the two people by that point that had the spirit bomb used directly on him. He's suggesting an attack that he KNOWS doesn't work from personal experience.

>SS4 is actually the transformation the evil saiyans reached, considered the most dangerous form to topple the universes

>Yamoshi fights off the Evil Saiyans, he was straight up winning as soon as he reached SSGSS2
>suddenly he pulled a RoF Goku and got shot by a mysterious party, he dies

>they can't reach SS because it's locked behind a higher power level, turns out ut was THAT easy to reach SS4 back then
>they got killed by some dissenters, some are left alone and fucked off to another planet

>but maybe it was a shorter arc like saiyan saga?
Even saiyan saga lasted for a while, about 47 chapters (If we count it from Raditz's arrival to Vegeta's defeat). I feel Goku's heart virus would act up and Goku would be taken away no matter what, and maybe Vegeta would turn out to be a super saiyan too but wouldn't help much. From there on it's hard to tell. I think the characters would win the initial fight, but the androids would escape (As Piccolo immediately notes the mountains can be used to escape), and they would absorb civilians' energy to become stronger like Cell did. I also theorize that everyone would realize that ki absorption is troublesome and this would be used to explain why Trunks has a sword, and Goku would eventually get Nyoibo back, and I theorize the last bit because Trunks' sword is quickly get ridden of, and there was an art of Androids arc where Goku is holding it...

No, he doesn't. He bitched about random shit and Toriyama was able to turn that into good stuff because he's a genius, Torishima never did jackshit with his 'sharp critical eye' outside of working with Toriyama.
