Re: How was Raditz planning on taking Goku back, in a tiny spacepod that only fits one person?

You know that episode when Piccolo destroyed the spaceship to stop Gohan in his ape form a second time? Was that Goku's spaceship when he came as a child? I know it's filler, but whatever.

Frost used that form too. Goku fought it. Was nice too see it again, albeit with a different person.

Did he also not like the second and third forms of Freeza just like with Cell? I've wondered about that.

Re: Character You Wish Did More?

There's a lot of characters who I wish did more. That includes stuff that were filler.

Goten and Trunks (kid) got brushed to the side in Super. Though the kid Trunks had his moments when he met his future self face to face.

Re: What if Masako Nozawa dies? (God forbid)

I could see Rika Matsumoto, Megumi Ogata and Romi Park being good replacements. I've seen Megumi Ogata and Romi Park, the anime shows and characters they've worked in. I don't think they would fit Goku IMO. They won't capture Goku's playfulness, cheerfulness, or energetic personality. I'd say Yumir...

It took the heart virus to take effect for Android 19 to beat him. Without that, Goku was owning Android 19.

Re: Saddest Pieces of Music in Dragon Ball.

The track from Movie 7 that plays when Goku is getting beaten up by Super 13. It gets reused when Piccolo is telling Vegeta what his fate will be before Vegeta sacrifices himself against Buu. It evokes both sadness and despair. I thought about that one. But I'd say the ost from movie 4, where Goku ...

Re: Dragon Ball's spiritual successor

I had actually tangled up a lot of my love for YYH into DB for some reason years ago until I rewatched the entirety of YYH around 2016/2017 and learned that I actually liked it more than DB (mostly because of the Dark Tournament and the fact that all 4 protags stay relevant throughout). I like DBZ ...

Re: RIP Iizuka Shouzou

I looked up the anime shows he has worked in in his career. Besides DBZ, I have watched a few other anime series he has done. I didn't know/realize he was Baraggan in Bleach until now. I think that is his best known character besides Nappa.

Re: Deep Thoughts: The Fortuneteller Baba Saga

The musical scores from Dragon Ball movie 1: Curse of the Blood Rubies started to be played more when the fortuneteller baba saga began. Before that, the BGMs from DB movie 1 were used, but they were played infrequently.

Re: Dragon Ball Z: Battle of Gods - Ten Years.

10 years. It really has been a long time. At that time I wouldn't have imagined that the franchise would have a revival, and I couldn't tell if the Bardock stuff was a hoax or not. I liked the setting of where the events took place better in the movie where the encounter with Beerus and Whis was on ...

I don't mean to disrespect this work but during the last months I've finished an updated, corrected, more accurate documentation for the scores of Dragon Ball and Dragon Ball Z. Y'all should use this one to look for tracks instead, it even has a rundown of all BGM CDs. There are also plans for a re...
