Re: Unpopular DB opinions
Design wise I'd say that Saiyans are the most uninteresting species of aliens Dragon Ball has to offer. They're just humans with tails, and even that small, slight, subtle design difference is quickly dropped. That's an unpopular opinion? I always thought it was a 'No shit!' type of thing. Well, co...

Re: Do you consider the Boo arc better than Super?
He is not a warrior anymore, he is not a killer; he ia a husband, a father, who LIKES TO FIGHT but as a sport. GT followed this visual progression, giving him even a mustach. But this logical was broken in DBS, where, because of fanservices purposes, he started to wear his armor again. That's not h...

Re: Do you consider the Boo arc better than Super?
[spoiler] He improves because he wants to be like Goku. Thats not, well entertaining. Here is the thing: Vegeta never would have improved himself unless he is trying to surpass Goku. I always bring this up and people ignore me. Vegeta was that character in GT and he did nothing of merit. He didn't e...

Re: Do you consider the Boo arc better than Super?
GT Vegeta has nothing to fight for because his arc was already concluded in DBZ. To be the best he can be. Goku is constantly training, not simply to fight off an impending big bad. He does so for its own sake. It's who he is. Vegeta admonished Gohan for taking it easy in the peace time before the ...

Re: Do you consider the Boo arc better than Super?
Wait, wouldn't him putting his pride down to get training from another person be a sign of said development. Because I don't think pre buu arc vegeta would do that. Vegeta fought without thinking in the buu saga too, hell in movies 12 and 13, he did that exact same thing. He also didn't want to do ...

Re: Would you want a full reanimation to combine DB and Z in a single series?
In Toei's current condition, no, I wouldn't. Besides the production itself being very poor, I don't think DB works without Minoru Maeda, Shunsuke Kikuchi and the rest of the members of the original staff. I mean, DB would never being so popular in the whole world if the OST, for example, wasn't the ...

Re: Do you consider the Boo arc better than Super?
Friends can be competitive. His arc in the Buu arc wasn't about them becoming friends. It was about Vegeta finally letting go of his insecurity. Secure people can still be competitive. They simply don't see someone better at something as an afront to their self image. Domesticated Vegeta is not a n...

Why not? How would he act? He would act as he acts in movies 12 e 13 and in EoZ. They are friends now, he understood his acts in favor of his pride were selfish and inconsequent. He respect Goku as an equal, as a"hook" that inspire him to improve himself always, not as someone who is comp...

Re: What is "Godly" about Goku/Vegeta?
Laziness? Kid Goku used to wake up at 6 am to break some stones and go hunting. Goku was never lazy. DBS' Goku is just a jerk.DragonBallFoodie wrote:They both keep breaking limits and challenging the limits of possibility.
This is balanced though by their very human vices of laziness (Goku) and pride (Vegeta).

Re: Favorite series gutpunch
Many great ones have been said already, but I really like Goku's gut punch to Freeza: http://33.media.tumblr.com/b0c9eb6f92b088dac56b581d478441e1/tumblr_inline_n8nrtcj2dU1ri065t.gif The full scene slows down the animation a bit, and it gives you a sense that after a long fight, Freeza is no longer ...

Re: Do you consider the Boo arc better than Super?
Sorry for the confusion. By progress I mean how good Vegeta is as a person. By showing character development, I'm referring more to the degree to which he's developed because if he becomes a goody two shoes then it's a step too far, but if having Vegeta have a healthier sense of competition while s...

Re: DragonBall S̶u̶p̶e̶r̶ Rainbow
I would reverse DBGT and DBS' scores. And I don't think DBZ is a 10/10 anime, but, in comparison only with the franchise itself, I agree it is. Yeah I was comparing it to the DB series only, I don't watch other anime, not a fan of it. (Btw, could you solve me a doubt? The way I wrote was right or I...

I read that. But your argue is not convicing, for me. I don't think a post-Boo Vegeta would act like this. Why not? How would he act? He would act as he acts in movies 12 e 13 and in EoZ.
