Aren't you the guy who really overreacted when Funimation removed the TFS scene? I recall you (or someone else) getting really pissed off. The constant memes, everywhere I go someone quotes TFS. The people who believe TFS is better then the show, and of course the ones who think it's canon.Scsigs wrote:Which ways would you say? The only way I can see is TFS' portrayals of some of the characters getting stuck in people's minds as the canon versions, like how Goku was always a selfish asshole, an idiot, & a bad parent for example. Toriyama's words on the matter really don't help much, which no one should really take without a grain of salt anyways because of how he treated his own franchise for all those years before Battle of Gods & his forgetfulness. Also that Piccolo was a better father to Gohan than Goku just because he trained him when he was a kid, though that one's more arguable.Dbzfan94 wrote:Exactly. People put them on too high of a pedestal. I've said on more than one occasion that their influence has really hurt the fandom (much more then any good they did) in ways I don't think it'll ever recover from, which is really unfortunate. But I'm curious on seeing that rant. I believe that's Kirbopher right? Could you link it.
"Piccolo was a better father to Gohan than Goku just because he trained him when he was a kid, though that one's more arguable."
That joke got way too out of hand. This is exactly what I mean. Sure that joke existed before TFS but no thanks to them it's gone way too far. There's absolutely no basis for Piccolo being a better father than Goku when pretty much every thing in the manga shows that Piccolo trained Gohan and never raised him at all.
