Re: Dragon Ball Rewatch, Week 105 - GT 16-20 (CURRENT WEEK)
-The fight with Voltron Super Mega Cannon Sigma was pretty alright. I dunno if it'll prove to be super memorable, but it was engaging enough. I actually disagree that this is a positive at all. In light of Rilldo, there's no tension or stakes to it, and the very lackluster animation means it's not ...

Re: Dragon Ball Rewatch, Week 105 - GT 16-20 (CURRENT WEEK)
There are a lot of valid criticisms with GT, but "I don't believe anyone could be stronger than Boo" just feels like digging for something else to criticise. My other thought is that Goku said that to mean "this guy is actually a challenge , we have to take this seriously now", ...

Re: Dragon Ball Rewatch, Week 105 - GT 16-20 (CURRENT WEEK)
The difference is that the power escalation in DB and DBZ was logical. It's only logical in the sense that Toriyama was writing it at the time which gives it more out-of-universe credibility. As a counter-example, it'd be easy to swap Daimao and Boo's power ranking and place in the story around and...

Re: Dragon Ball Rewatch, Week 105 - GT 16-20 (CURRENT WEEK)
Getting slightly ahead of myself since I haven't gotten to the Goku/Rilldo fight yet, but I personally don't see the issue with him being stronger than Boo. This might sound cynical but, if anything, it'd be weird if he wasn't . Every Dragon Ball villain is somehow stronger than the last. That's ju...

Re: Dragon Ball Rewatch, Week 105 - GT 16-20 (CURRENT WEEK)
Thus we know that science can often top nature when it comes to making a being who's incredibly powerful. Yeah, nature for sure. But the thing is, Majin Boo wasn't nature, he was magic. Science topping the supernatural? That's a much much tougher sell. Especially given what Boo himself was shown to...

Re: Dragon Ball Rewatch, Week 105 - GT 16-20 (CURRENT WEEK)
Personally I'm not that fussed about Rilldo being stronger than Boo? Baby is, and the Androids were able to one-up Frieza with no complaints from anybody. Thus we know that science can often top nature when it comes to making a being who's incredibly powerful. About Pan, I have to say it got a littl...

Re: Dragon Ball Rewatch, Week 105 - GT 16-20 (CURRENT WEEK)
This chunk of episodes I enjoyed more than the first time I watched them. It was really nice seeing Pan truly be a part of the team: Ep16 is almost entirely her being proactive and figuring things out, she gets a great shot in on Rilldo, and is overall participating far more in fights. I suspect if ...

Re: Dragon Ball Rewatch, Week 104 - GT 11-15 (CURRENT WEEK)
My favourite part of the Luud saga was the final episode where Pan had to work with her grandpa to destroy it. That's some proper character interaction and development there; Pan hugging Goku at the end is so satisfying after those episodes where she first didn't even want to look at him. Episode 15...

Re: Dragon Ball Rewatch, Week 104 - GT 11-15 (CURRENT WEEK)
Awwww Yeahhhh!!! Isss DOLTAKKI TIME BAY-BEE!!!!!!! So I like Doltakki. He's a fun villain and also a memorable one. Doltakki's scenes with Pan are probably the highlight of these episodes. While certainly a little troubling, they are also very well crafted. The thing that really makes it all work t...

Episode 7 - I wonder why Pan, being the only girl of the group, didn't think of wearing the bridal dress herself? Is it because of being tomboyish, she would rather get the actual boys to crossdress? :P I have been asking that question to myself oh so many times for so many years. All I can think o...

Re: Dragon Ball Rewatch, Week 103 - GT 6-10 (CURRENT WEEK)
I assume we’re saving Way of the Strongest to after GT? I've been lobbying to Robo to have Path to Power to be the last thing we watch because it's bookend things perfectly: end our Rewatch by returning to the very beginning. Problem is, that breaks the general goal of watching these in the relativ...

Re: Dragon Ball Rewatch, Week 102 - GT 1-5 (CURRENT WEEK)
I never quite understood the Shunkanido block thing. Like, why SS but no Shunkanido? he can fly, he can go SS3 even, so what gives? does that mean he is weaker than his post-Namek self? because later he fights a Boo-level foe, so that can't be it, although he was turned into a child because he was ...

Re: Dragon Ball Rewatch, Week 102 - GT 1-5 (CURRENT WEEK)
To a certain extent, I feel like whenever Pan gets cross about being treated like a kid, my response is "But you're 10." But yeah, I can sorta understand where she's coming from. I think this would work better if she was 13 or 14, but it's not exactly a bad angle to approach a character, ...

Re: Dragon Ball Rewatch, Week 102 - GT 1-5 (CURRENT WEEK)
. The OG-DB songs however were on the original TV broadcasts in 2001-3, so much more effort was put into their production. Did the New Zealand and Australia broadcast keep them intact? In the US, Toonami removed Mystical Advtenture entirely and only kept the first and last line of I’ll Give You Rom...
