I'm puzzled as to why Buu Kai's "Theme of Shenron" sounds like it was edited directly off Naruto's "Nine Tail Demon Fox". I don't know anything about this sort of thing, so forgive me if there's something I'm missing here. :crazy:

I think they were pretty satisfied in living in one timeline that has no opposing Gods or mortals, I don't believe they would risk themselves in attacking other timelines as they said in the anime the Zero Mortals Plan would be complete by the time the last mortals on Earth were killed.
I don't think that's true, in the manga at least I'm sure they want every universe and timeline...
I think I missed this part, it was in the last chapter?

Since Saiyan's apparently have a better sense of smell, how badly would a stink bomb screw them up?
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.

How much watt are produced by a Kamehameha?
Can be used as a clean source of energy to fuel engines and batteries, so reduce pollution?
I learned english listening to songs. So I don't know anything about. The day you had to learn play piano by just listening .mp3, you'll understand.

Why is Goku Black in the Manga, so different from Goku Black in the Anime?

Toriyama's vague outlines I'm guessing. He clearly doesn't have much of an overall vision for the specifics so I wouldn't be surprised if in his mind Goku Black is just the new Kai he made inside Goku's body. Which is incidentally the way Toyotaro writes him: Zamasu in Goku's body which makes the existence of an actual Zamasu as his partner considerably more pointless than it already was in the anime.

Goku : super Saiyan excitement
Vegeta : super Saiyan pride
Goten : Super Saiyan appreciation
Trunks : Super Saiyan cockiness
The Goten and Trunks one are kind of bad bc it's hard to pin point an emotion for them.

I made a bet with Alee9977 that Vegeta won't be beaten quickly by an opponent. If I lose, I switch my avatar to Vegeta getting beat by hit. If I win, he switches it to Vegeta holding Black by his hair. This will last a month.

Keeping in mind that it's a companion release to the Orange Bricks, the results are actually decent. It's all a bit washed and overcontrasted, but with a few exceptions, the overall detail is intact. Unless you're very picky, it's all just fine.

What's really wrong with Funimation's DB movie releases is the Japanese audio track, which is based on a low-quality source for no particular reason. I'm still not over that.

What do you like about the villains more? Heroes and villains tend to have a somewhat defined look across all fiction. Is this a question that could be applied to other franchises as well?

It's just the design's that I prefer, they just look so much cooler than the heroes. And I will admit I am a sucker for the more inhuman and cooler designs, and yes it is something that goes across different franchises as well. I'm also a sucker for Gero's design as well.

But this does not mean I don't like the hero's design, especially in Dragon Ball. I just find the designs for the Dragon Ball Villains, to be far more creative, interesting and just simply cooler.

I think he's pretty good a writing the essential aspects of Dragon Ball. However, he still has a ton of room to improve. I think that if we give him a few more years and plenty of creative freedom while also having him write in junction with Toriyama (basically, exactly what he's doing right now), I'll be able to definitively call him good.

Do anyone thinks the form Goku used against Slug in M4 popular named as "False Super Saiyan" as the same he used against the Ginyu Force in that filler episode in Hell?

Why Toei thought Goku wasn't strong enough to defeat them in his Base form?

Do you guys have a multiplier for FSSJ?

Thoughts about this transformation?
