Re: Toriyama's racial/ist character portrayals?
Are we going to pretend that AT didn't have some racial feelings towards certain character appearances, because from what I see, he seemed to prefer Caucasian facial features for the good characters while the bad ones would get some stereotypical asian look. I think there was a panel of the manga wh...

Re: What things irreversibly lowered your opinion of the ser
Revival of F film. Vegeta's promised day is given to Goku once again, and to add insult to injury, he would've died if it wasn't for Goku's plot shield. No point in bring the person who ruined his childhood back for the x time for him to gets his final shine, no one wants Friza back anymore, and Veg...

Gine is the cutest Saiyan cuz of the eyes.
As for male, I'd say Base Broly..... or Paragus.

Re: Dragonball live-action series a good idea or not?
DBZ is best animated, but another attempt at a live-action wouldn't hurt, maybe the Japanese should give it a go. It wasn't that long that I heard my fav manga was getting a live-action film, so with the DB revival that has come to us, I could expect one in the coming years, my best bet would be a m...

Re: Toriyama's racial/ist character portrayals?
Mr.Popo was drawn in a ridiculous way, it doesn't get anymore "blackface" than that But his outfit doesn't scream out black/African to me, so it could slide under the dirty rug. The US has a bad history with racism, this is evident in their caricatures, theres a clip on YT (Lazy Town) abou...

Re: If DB had a Civil War
They realize that the old villains keep coming back and annoying them, so the Z Fighters split into two groups. Goku, Gohan, Goten,Videl, Tien, and Uub are in favor of giving the villains a second chance. Vegeta, Trunks, Piccolo, 18, Krillin, Bulma, and Yamcha are in favor of killing the enemies. Co...

Re: Can Dragon Ball create constructs like Green Lantern
Didn't Majin Vegeta used some ki to hold Goku against a boulder to slap him repeatedly?
I doubt they could create anything out of ki, but stuff with simple shapes shouldn't be a problem.

Re: Toriyama's racial/ist character portrayals?
Toriyama has used those kinds of lips to portray white people before. As well as using "normal" lips to portray black people - Oob. Let us not go there. Uub is more of Indian or middle eastern descent, like Namu. On-topic: I feel Toriyama intentionally depicted Africans and black individu...

If Dragon Ball were an American Comic, then it would've gotten a serious big-budget movie.

Re: How powerful are Real life Martial artists and Athletes?
We humans are lame, can't even fly or shoot ki waves, so naturally anyone from DBZ could pwn our ass easily. But if we upgrade our fighters to DB standards, I's say we might see some Ginyu force level guys. P.s. Those anyone remember those rl life fighter referenced in those street challenges, like ...

Re: How would Saiyan blood be kept alive throughout?
When even the Prince of all Saiyans lost the gene war against the weakest human, you know the Saiyan race is in danger. There aren't enough Saiyans to keep the bloodline, unless Vegeta and Goku bang the shit outtta their wifes and then fuse to make a third full blooded Saiyan, and continue the cycle...

Oscar Award Frieza wins best design from the movie, took the spotlight from those Super Cyan dudes in all media apparently. I got a question (I'm sorry if it already has been answered). If Frieza blew up Earth, and Vegta was kill, those God Form not come with invincibility? How did Goku an Beerus br...

Re: What's the best fight scene/moment, including movies?
Those Ginyu Force fights where the shiz, also Frieza's many transformations and the battles were some of the best fighting scenes.

Dat buff Roshi.
Vegeta and Goku gags are the best, I hope they keep doing this, it made the Buu Saga funnier.
Also Gogeta in a canon movie would be great.
Frieza blowing up the Earth and Whis' 3 minute reversal, is that a nod to the 6hours 3 minutes of Namek?

Re: What controversial themes/social issues can work in DB?
Saiyans are black people.... no for real, they are. That's the Namekians. Innocent people who did nothing that end up being killed for someone else's profit. Not to mention they're poor (they certainly aren't wealthy as seen on Namek) and they always get attacked in one way or another. Look at The ...

Re: What fan fiction would actually make a good series?
I'm working on a fan-fic about Saiyans being a primitive ape like tribe on Earth that built a spaceship and travel to anywhere. Would explain why they look humanoid and can procreate with humans. Another with Vegeta fulfilling an ancient Saiyan prophecy, and becoming the first canon SSJ4 (SSJG mixed...

I've completly lost any hope for Vegeta to get his shinning moment, if it wasn't against Frieza, it probably won't happen. Seems lame that Goku was taken out by outside interfernce and Vegeta was beating up an already beaten lizard dude, and to top it off he rage-quits and is declared as the winner!...
