Re: GT and misogyny

Wait, I’m confused. Why should Mr. Satan being concerned over his grandchild be considered sexist? So I don't think anyone properly answered this: it's not just "him being concerned", it's the fact his role in the plot is to tell Pan that she shouldn't get involved in the boy's club of fi...

Re: GT and misogyny

Surprised this thread has gone for 11 pages and I feel like no one has actually talked about Pan's role in-depth, but I guess that's just the nature of these things. Some points I'd like to bring up: Besides the obvious lack of Super Saiyan, despite many, many times she could realistically get angry...

Re: Hosting a Q&A panel with Vic Mignogna

Is this for a convention that already agreed to host him? If the panel is going to happen anyway, I guess rather someone who knows what's going on to moderate it rather than some rabid Vic fan. I'd suggest...not bringing up the controversy? Like, maybe don't even warn people to not bring up the cont...

Re: Vic Mignogna

I will say that if I ever meet Nozawa and some how shes feeling nice enough to offer a hug and decides to peak me on the cheek, i wont complain lol. I mean never say never but the odds of that happening are extremely slim ( I know Japanese culture doesn't endorse a whole lot of hugging let alone ch...

Re: Is admitting to have watched and liked Super like admitting to have done something 'naughty'?

I just overheard a conversation from some co-workers of mine the other day where one admitted they hadn't gotten around to watching Super yet. DBZ fans aren't all as up to date with the Current Internet Discourse as you'd expect. Not everyone has even heard from their friends that "Super is a t...

Re: All in all, are you happy the revival happened?

I probably wouldn't have stayed a fan if the revival didn't happen just as I was getting into the series, so yes. And honestly, even getting new content that we think isn't good has been really helpful in figuring out what parts of Dragon Ball we enjoy and work for us.

Hard to tell what he's thinking anymore. If he thinks this big 'culture war' fuss on social media will eventually wear down the other side until they settle with something that tries to make his reputation sound slightly better, or he's just given all decision-making to Ty Beard and co. who promised...

Re: Episode #0477 (08 September 2019)

Hearing you guys bring up Krillin's karaoke made me look it up again to check and then remembered that I've heard Tsubasa wo Kudasai before outside there - it's played in big tragic scenes in a sort of ironic way in both Evangelion 2.0 and the Danganronpa 3 anime. There are probably loads of anime w...

Re: Is the manga a little /too/ fast-paced?

I don't really feel that. I think context is important. As in, Dragon Ball is a serialised manga. You'd only read a chapter every week (or a few chapters a month if you picked it up by Tankobon) before you had to wait to see what'd happen next. I feel your imagination would probably be filling in th...

I just hope this means things are going to start drawing to a close soon.

The *drama* won't be over, but nothing after the case is dismissed will actually be news that's worth my time to keep following.

Re: Gohan vs. Dyspo or Gohan vs. Kefla: Who was the better final opponent for Gohan in the ToP?

Neither of them really make much sense for his final opponent, but Dyspo felt more appropriate for both Gohan's strength-level and narrative purpose. At very most he was maybe #3 in terms of relevance in that group, #2 maybe if you took every recruitment episode very seriously. Makes sense his final...

One thing I've gotten from all this is just...how little these people know about the history of Dragon Ball, Nick Reketia included. It's like they've seen nothing but Kamehacon drama. "Hey, it looks like Toei is really strict with their IP! Let's see if we can find Funimation messing around wit...

Well, Vic Mignogna has also been accused of homophobia and anti-semitism, even if it was from him making very bad taste jokes. Does that count?

Maybe those people might have a point if the only sources used by Monica's side are links to tumblr pages and twitter threads, but we also don't know what other forms of evidence they have? i.e: getting personal testimony from some of the people in those internet threads, any other things the Funima...

Re: Am I The Only DB Fan Who Likes Jiren?

I like him. Maybe just because of the idea that his cold, stoic, generic strong-guy persona is just a facade he made to hide the fact that he's really just scared and lonely inside. There's this almost metatextual element to his character, where they use the lone stoic strong guy to discuss the very...
