Of course Goku wasn't joined at the hip with his dead friends, so he might not have hung around with them all the time, so the person Goku has almost certainly spent the most time uninterrupted time with is Vegeta, when they trained together in the RoSaT before the U7 vs U6 showdown.
Imagine that.
There were those three years with Piccolo before the androids arrived. And he spent 3 years with Kami, so maybe when Piccolo assimilated him, those years add up.

What my point here actually is, is that it's weird that Kuririn has the title of Goku's best friend when they only really spent a couple of months together under Roshi, and then never again for any significant period of time.

It was the longest he had spent with anyone other than his grandpa up to that point and it was during his young formative years. It's hardly what I would call weird.

Ah, but Kami let Mr. Popo take care of Goku's training, so can't really say for sure how much time he spent with Kami, maybe he was doing other things, while Goku was getting trained?

Well, yeah, but they were still there, in the same place.

Als, I can't believe I wrote Kuririn. I always write he name Krillin....

That's surprising, I thought that Gohan was the most popular besides Goku.

Maybe years ago, but things are different now. Though, I want to point out, that this is my assumption, so don't take it for 100% truth. The true statistics may show different results.

That is true. I have a feeling that characters like 17 are extremely popular now, even though he was irrelevant until this last arc.

I looked up the dates and the time Kanzenshuu had the most online users (Sept 17) was between episode 58 (Sep 11) and episode 59 (Sep 25) of Super.

Episode 58 is about our heroes learning about Zamasu wish with the Super Dragon Balls and going to U10 to stop Gowasu assassination, the later is then preventing the muder and Beerus Hakaing Zamasu.

What kind of other news or leak happened around Sep 17, 2016 that had Kanzenshuu with lot of people online?
Dragon Ball was always a kid series and fans should stop being in denial.

DAMN, people sure are mad about super ending, seriously just look at the amount of dislikes on Toei's preview of the new anime (Kitaro?)

I don't know wheter to feel good because I'm not alone on the hype train or bad because people are already shitting on an unaired promishing show.
I really miss ma boy, Black :( :cry:

Really? If I would take a guess, I would say there were most people online in this forum on Episode #66 (Nov 13, 2016) who had 1200 posts IIRC and there's a lot of discussion about it.

The site specifically says Sept 17/2016 had the most users online. Just in case you're confusing stuff, users online (logged in) =/= users activity (posting frequency).

Would an Ultimate Goku get SS hair or would his eyes just get the full outlines with the hair staying like his Base self?
When someone tells you, "Don't present your opinion as fact," what they're actually saying is, "Don't present your opinion with any conviction. Because I don't like your opinion, and I want to be able to dismiss it as easily as possible." Don't fall for it.

Now that you mention it, Adult Gohan's Super Saiyan hair is pretty much the same shape as his normal hair, huh? Who knows? Until recently, I didn't even consider Ultimate Gohan a transformation, but just a full realization of his hidden power. But now games and Super are both treating it like one.

Kitaro has been around before so it's not exactly a new series but in the sense of a new season/series then it is. As much as Super is to Dragon Ball, at least in that regard. It was clear that TOEI had no idea what to do with the Super series so better they just ended it up and decided to put their full-focus on the upcoming Dragon Ball movie instead.

Dragon Ball Super is over. Yay. Good things can finally happen to the Dragon Ball franchise. :)

Aren't his eyes are already outlined as a common SSJ?

I was reading through the Namek arc again because it's that good and came across this page:

[spoiler]Image[/spoiler]

New headcanon: considering the contrast between the more 'heroic' Goku of the Namek arc, and the increasingly selfish and reckless Goku of the Cell arc and beyond (up to Super), I'm gonna say it isn't just coincidence that Goku's personality shifts a bit after the Super Saiyan transformation :P

He lets Vegeta go because he wants to fight him. Same with Piccolo. There was no shift in personality.
