That's one of the worst videos I've ever seen. Over analytical garbage that reaches so incredibly far to try and find some deeper meaning behind the atrocious writing and paper thin tropes present in the arc.

128 was trash. Toshio dropped the ball, hence he got destroyed on Twitter and rightfully so.

Goodness. Mods can we please do something about toxic posters like this guy (and others like shuby) who aren't even here to discuss, but just spew toxic negativity in an attempt to try and shut down any healthy debate.

Try actually watching the video maybe?

Is this what things have come down to?

A great video offering actual intelligent analysis, and the only responses are legit troll like responses

"nope. 128 was thrash. Toshio sucks"...."Super sucks so there can't be any deeper discussion about it"

Where are the mods? Toxic negative behavior is allowed but anyone saying Suoer is great isn't?

The fact you are cheering about Toshio being attacked on Twitter just because your fav charcater Vegeta got eliminated shows how awful Vegeta fans are. Worst fanbase ever.

And btw, the vast majority of the responses were thanking Toshio, praising him, and calling 128 a fantastic episode....

In fact the Vegeta fanboys who were attacking him were absolutely mocked and thrashed for their pathetic behavior toward Toshio just because Vegeta was eliminated

Image

The tweet calling Vegeta fans the worst or most annoying got well over 300 likes

It's a case of the vocal minority being loudest and most irrational, but the silent majority being far greater/rational

If you ask for opinions on a piece of fan-created commentary/critique external to this website, you need to be able to accept what you receive back.

Furthermore, this is in fact a fan-created work, and does not belong here if you are not willing to actually add any substance/content of your own. A link in and of itself to a fan-created work belongs in the appropriate sub-section, which is where this will be moved.

Edit:VegettoEX has already warned.
Why power levels are important?
The genre and roots of dragon ball

Except they aren't willing to listen to any positive opinions about Super.

I thought healthy debate was encouraged?

Yet the responses are out right... "nope. Toshio sucks. Super sucks"

How is that healthy debate?

What insane double standards. Only negative toxic opinions are tolerated and protected.

It should go both ways.

The same way you say that we have to accept hateful and toxic responses, they should be forced to accept positive opinions and not just be able to brush it off as "you are an apologist"

Why is the toxicity not only allowed but encouraged? It's clear there's some kind of agenda going on.

It's ok to shoot down positive opinions about Super YET negative toxic opinions about Super can never be challenged and must be accepted

Your responses about moderation are consistently cherry-picked and do not reflect actual account moderation/administration done both openly and behind-the-scenes. You, yourself, receive consistent warnings and account strikes and do not appear to earnestly want healthy conversation; rather, you take issue with any comment that does not reflect what your opening agenda is.

There is a common denominator here.

That is not to say that other responses are not equally unacceptable, but that you refuse to take any responsibility for your own failures in communication (antagonistic behavior, stubborn responses, needless double-posts, etc.) speaks volumes. We simply do not have the capacity to deal with this kind of behavior.

Please review the community guidelines. Toxic behavior is indeed dealt with for the overall betterment of the community.

There was never an attempt to add content of value from the opening post, and as such this thread is now closed.

I never ever received a warning from any other mod

You are the ONLY one who's ever given me warnings. And that says it all. From the start you had an agenda against me, and never gave me a fair shake. Just because I don't like the same characters you do and have different opinions to you.

Ajay doesnt have problem with me. Herms doesnt have a problem with me. Youre the only one who's ever had a problem with me. I've never done anything. You consistently try to pick on me
