Kanzenshuu

One question, how do you think about the first 3 pre Z movies, that where made before Koyama and Morishita joined the crew? I think that the DB era movies are a bit of a different case. I find interesting the fact that they try to retell the manga in there one way, but I fear they don't always do i...

It is absolutely! I've seen the whole series hundreds of times and it's one of the few shows I can start looking at every time I finish it. I know it's faulty and it's not perfect, but I always want to get back to these characters as often as I have. Even if I find another good show for a while, I w...

Hello there! I've recently had the opportunity to watch the original 16 movies and had some thoughts about them, so I thought I'd share them with however is willing to listen, especially because they become relevant again lately. Before I start I need to point out a couple of things about me, since ...

Yes! Glad I'm not the only one that loves there dynamic. I always see there relationship like an older sister that constantly has to look after her little brother who is getting into trouble. If there is one thing I mess during Z is Bulma and Goku's interaction, so glad that Super gave them some att...

Language: Japanese Episode 81: General Thoughts: This episode infuriates me. I want to get up just so I can use my chair to smash the screen with, hoping it feels pain. This is probably one of, if not the most irritating episode. Yes, I do have problems with individual scenes or choices throughout ...

Language: Japanese Episode 76: General Thoughts: One of my favourite episodes! I will always remember the first time I saw it, me and my brother were shouting at the TV hoping the characters could hear us. There isn't any other show that can get me this emotional. To this day I still watch it on th...

Language: Japanese Episode 71: General Thoughts: Here's something silly, so we are on a different planet faraway from Earth, so why do we have the same exact dinosaur that chased Gohan during his training before Nappa and Vegeta arrived? What, did he build his own little spaceship just to follow an...

Language: Japanese Episode 66: General Thoughts: Ok... I'll try to say this as delicately as I can and hopefully nobody gets offended. Just keep in mind that this is my personal opinion and no objective analysis (unlike usual). But... I hate Goku in this particular moment, not just in the anime, in...

Language: Japanese Episode 61: General Thoughts: Episode starts off with Vegeta chasing Krillin and Gohan, and actually managing to get to them. Already it's tense, but when Vegeta understands that Ginyu Tokusentai is approaching and starts panicking that's the moment you need to get worried. Anima...

Language: Japanese Episode 56/57: General Thoughts: Allow me to tell you a story. Don't worry I'll make it short. The very first time DBZ aired on TV, in my country, I didn't manage to see it in it's entirely due to school schedule. So I was left in the dark, not knowing what was happening and alwa...

Language: Japanese Episode 51: General Thoughts: Not exactly the most interesting episode from ad action point of view, but a very dense one due to a lot of exposition. We are on a new Planet and we are just starting to explore it. I like all the stuff regarding the namekian culture that is introdu...

Language: Japanese General Thoughts: Episode 46: The first time we get a sense of Freeza's power is at the beginning of this episode. Krillin's and Gohan's reactions, when the party goes by, tells you everything. The fear on there faces and the fact that they still are petrified even after the dang...

Language: Japanese General Thoughts: Episode 41/42/43 and part of 44 : there isn't much to say about the fake Namek episodes. The aliens are boring and they don't seem to belong in the Dragon Ball universe. All that happens on this planet is uninteresting at best. Even the final “plot twist” is jus...

Language: Japanese General Thoughts: Episode 36 : Where do I even begin? I know, we can go back to the manga and start form there. Before arriving on the battlefield, the “other” characters are discussing on the fate of there friends that went to fight the saiyan. On the plain they talk about the p...

Language: Japanese General Thoughts: Episode 31: There he is, the prince we all know and love with his first temper tantrum. I adore how Horikawa goes form the calm and collective tone he had until a couple of episodes to an hysterical over the top yelling. Can I also say how much I love that Veget...

Language: Japanese General Thoughts: Episode 26: Nothing special happens in this episode, except Nappa destroying those annoying journalists (thank you, Nappa!), and obliviously Goku reaching the end of the path. Despite being a plain uneventful episode, I will say that it has it's uses. Unlike epi...

Language: Japanese General Thoughts: We can now begin! Goku is back to life and the saiyans arrive on Earth (finally with the right colours!). Episode 21: This one always gets me hyped. After what seems like a real life year of fillers the moment you see the pods land I'm always so happy. Doesn't m...

Questions: I have a question. What is Gohan doing when he starts listing animals in episode 20? And why does he do it? I never understood that. I looked this up last year when I saw that scene, and ended up in this old Kanzenshuu (Daizenshuu EX) thread . Apparently it is Shiritori , "a Japanes...

Language: Japanese General Thoughts: Last stretch of fillers before the real battle begins! Episode 16: So, this episode... I don't know why exactly, but I seem to have a wired relationship with this one in particular. Every time I see it I seem to shift between liking it or just being annoyed. I c...
