I was kind of going to just bite my tongue about this post, and not say anything, but honestly, the more I've sat on it, the more I've decided to just say what I want to say. While I am ever the proponent of introducing people to #TheArts and getting them interested in new types of books, film and ...

I'm nearly 32 and *I* have to make fun of my fellow millennials for that on the regular! Hell, I went on a date with a 28 year old woman just a few weeks ago, and we at one point started talking about the movies we like. She, an almost 30 year old grown woman... had basically had no interest in ANY...

Pretty much all anime receive advertising, it's rare for anime not to at least get one trailer. Normally there's a spike in advertising 2-3 months before a series airs; one common trajectory is for a show to get a teaser when first announced (an announcement video without any footage from the show),...

I don't think anything's changed or that willingness to train is related to race. Saiyans have a love for fighting but not necessarily for training; the former is universal/almost universal, the latter is probably as individualized for Saiyans as it is for humans. A lot of Saiyans from the old days ...

Art and politics go together like peanut butter and jelly. Anyone who has study art history (like myself) would know this. A lot of people only see on what is on the surface level and not anything else. Like these examples https://i.kym-cdn.com/photos/images/original/001/419/592/211.png I don't thi...

she just gets rid of her wrinkles, and does so in a way that not even her friends will notice the DBs were used. Somehow she manages to have them available for whenever they need them. Does she make the same wish every year? That actually doesn't make much sense since if you wish for your youth to ...

So I'm hearing now that he was sick for a year before he eventually died? Was that an unrelated illness? Or is it just not even true at all? Because hematomas to my knowledge are not really like a chronic illness. Hematomas aren't a chronic illness, in this case the hematoma was seemingly caused by...

His health was likely fine, the condition he died from is usually caused by injuries.

You're talking about a series where many of the characters who were once regulars like Oolong, Yamcha, Tenshinhan, etc only make fleeting and easily missable cameos (which I thought was a nice development from what the manga had done already, fazing everyone out to make the past feel more distant). ...

I never get the appeal of Goku dying on Namek? I've never really found it that poignant or moving either. Julie's idea about Goku undergoing a permanent change after the first SSJ transformation is honestly a lot more interesting. As for the Buu arc, nah, best to revive him there as well. I like th...

I was neutral to Daima after the first trailer but I'm interested after this latest one. That's some damn good choreography, and I like the coloring and overall atmosphere.

That's interesting about the Asgard arc, I haven't ever seen any Saint Seiya (minus the first episode; I watched the first episode from various anime for every year 1961+ a few years ago to get a feel for the history of anime, the trends of each decade and the development of the medium. I did the sa...

Dragon Ball is a show that is just not working in a usual 26/52 episode seasons/year. It needs to go continously like Naruto/Boruto or One Piece, the lore, the "epicness" can't be contained into seasons.. There's only a little problem with that: DB Fans hate "filler" (or non-Tor...

Insert songs had already become rare long before GT. Did the Buu Saga have any? They were pretty common up through and including the 22nd Budokai, then became much more infrequent. From Goku vs. Jackie Chun through Yamcha vs. Tenshinhan I don't think the series ever went more than 20 or so episodes ...

I think Karen is probably an overused term. It's an archetype that exists and there's obviously plenty of situations where the term is valid, but I've seen too many cases where internet people dogpile on a woman and excessively demonize her over relatively mild and forgivable cases of losing emotion...

Then I was wrong. He sounded extremely sick.

Yeah, he definitely sounded disturbingly weak by the time of Super. I'm not that good at judging Japanese acting sometimes but it was immediately evident even to me.

Not that soon, it was over six years.

What the fuck does capitalism have to do with Dragon Ball? capitalism is why dragon ball super was greenlit only three months before it aired, and fucked over one of Toei Animation's best directors from the very beginning. hell, capitalism is why a producer (pretty sure it was Hayashida) blamed vet...

Voice actors that is something I don't complain. I don't have any problem with Nozawa and Horikawa. I hope their health stays great and can continue being voice actors. As for health declining in their 30s, I can safely say that isn't true at all. Yeah, I mean... I get that aging is highly variable...
