That's what makes it so different and interesting. That arc reached levels of darkness that DB never had before, not even in the Freeza arc. There, they at least wished back Freeza's victims, whereas here, nothing. Maybe they'll use the Super DBs if Universe 7 wins the Tournament of Power to restore the timeline, but who knows right now?

My main point is, it's so different from what DB's previously done that it's appealing to me. I understand the whole "at least somewhat happy ending" viewpoint, but it's not like every "good guy" character needs to have one. Besides, he's basically in his own timeline - just one with two of him and Mai, which is another totally-different-from-before aspect (as far as I can recall).

It's not like Super's overall quality has improved, either.

I mean, we haven't forgotten the awful "Trunks loses everything he's ever fought for except his creepy romance with a woman who's older than his mom" ending to the Zero Mortals arc so soon, have we?
I definitely agree. It feels like disliking Super at this point has become a toxic thing, because most people say that it has gotten "good" at this point. I do like some things about it, like Zamasu and Vegeta's development. All of the stuff with Trunks felt like a bad fanfic. Goku, as he is now, is no more Goku than Abridged Goku is (in fact, the latter is probably somehow more faithful).

It reminds me a great deal of how Alien 3 ruined the ending of Aliens.

Thanks. I think I'm just going to have albums I like as my profile pictures. Overall I'd say "N.Y State of mind" is the better song, but "The World is yours" is a bit memorable.
And I like my fair share of Public Enemy.

I have an old machine, which constantly kept struggling with Windows..
Freezing dosen't help when you are in a hurry..

Needless to say, I had to switch to something fast and a new machine wasn't an option..
Decided to give the software a change, Linux seemed like a lightweight option..

My machine was a spring chicken after some tweaking, had to give it respect it deserves

It's been a year, and I still can't believe Phife died. I've been listening to ATCQ on and off since 2011 (thanks Madden), and it's just fucking werid, and sad to me. I mean guys Pac, Eazy, Biggie, and Big L have been dead my entire life, but Phife was different. Atleast we get "Thank you 4 Your service", but still.

I've switched over to this excellent cut from movie 12.

Tbf, I do to for the most part. As long as it refers to the manga.
I like 2pac.

At least someone knows their history, Heck you don't need to read the manga to know why some people refer him like that

The mullet was a natural fit, plus this form makes him look a ton more evil.

I was having a bit of trouble on deciding a nice, simple avatar (long cuts of animation are nice, but I think it's kind of distracting as an avatar), and I recently made a large GIF of this scene, so I made a cropped version of it my avatar for the time being. Hopefully it will be a good while before I switch it again...

Got sick of having inconsistent avatars across websites, so I traced over an image of Goku (specifically, the infamous OB shot with all the missing lines) in MS paint, got rid of all the details that might have made it look anything other than awful, added a South Park Canadian-esque mouth, and am using it as a placeholder, awaiting the day when a representation worthy of me shall appear.

...and I've spent the past 10 minutes adding a bunch of nonsense to that. Apparently, my new avatar is just whatever I do in MS Paint when I'm bored.

This scene was pretty freaking good, specially when you go deeper in the story and realise how many different ways it can be interpreted

There's a new Dragon Ball themed character-maker you say?
I spent way too much time creating multiple characters with this: https://dragonballcp.kirin.co.jp/

Anyways! It's been several months since my last avatar change; it's time.
I should note that I did some photoshopping after the fact; to change some colors (like that background--it was yellow and pink, now it's blue, and to get more magenta ssjg hair). Also fixed the outlines to make the line thickness more even between the head and body.

Decided to swap out my usual parade of Kuririn avatars (SACRILEGE, I know) and use the 'me' I made with that new Kirin character creator. Pretty nifty if I do say so myself.
