Kanzenshuu

Actually they did capture the rage side sometimes which just... made it all more bizarre.. is he a preachy justice hero or a guy who is pissed at him for killing Krillin? Just so inconsistent which makes him seem hypocritical at best lol.

True they did capture the rage. Some guys also get ...

Funimation lowkey did this too with their dialogue changes though it was probably more inspired by "American" values which are heavily influenced by Christianty. The kids had to get a good moral message from the show.

For example: Goku said to Captain Ginyu how good it is to help the weak and that ...

When Goku loses SSJ3 and is sidelined, the main focus still remains on him and Vegeta, moving the actual fight to the backseat. The stakes can still be felt since Fat Buu will ultimately lose, but the story can take a little breather and builds up to the grand finale, which works very well.

Having ...

Before Goku started fighting Majin Vegeta, Gohan said something like "I'm sorry our precious day got ruined like this" and Goku just grinned. It tells me he's not that bothered. He just wanted to fight him. But Majin Buu intrigued him too so subconsciously he may have actually also fought Vegeta to ...

People act differently in different contexts and with changing motivations. Vegeta sneaking around and wiping out all who stand in his way to overthrow Freeza is a completely different man than rival to Goku-Vegeta, who is again different from family man-Vegeta after Goku died.

Earthlings had this ...

The quote implies that Super Saiyan 2 and 3 can be viewed as branches, like the Ascended forms.

"Ascended branch": power at the expense of speed
"Super Saiyan 2" branch: power at the expense of personality (aggression, sadism, arrogance). I view this branch as the most natural continuation of the ...

Dende may heal your body but he can't make you like the time chamber more. Vegeta had this tough guy attitude about it: "poor little Kakarot can't handle the chamber?", and Goku replied "if you like to suffer then go for it". Goku has a free spirit, which was what kept him from going in for another ...

GT had the infamous "GT logic", dumb writing and unused potential both storywise and characterwise. The Baby arc was the best. It was clumsy but I like the mysterious hierarchy that led to Baby. The concept of evil dragons was very welcome since the Dragon Team had gotten used to the Dragon Balls so ...

I like the design, it's a nice variation of the GT version. The furless patches on the arms look a little strange. The way it's animated has a ton of character to it with a lot of monkey movements.

It should have a different name though.

Super Saiyan 4 in GT is a form that evolved from the Oozaru ...

Should do well in Japan considering the aging population.

It would have been funny if XXI had said "ah, bollox" instead of the f-word ...

The way I see it Broly is still the same character, only treated in different ways in the story due to changes in cultural perception.

As you basically said Broly has two sides: his regular side is passive, sad and repressed; his shadow side is destructive power and bloodlust incarnate. This is ...

Whenever things started making sense in the DB universe, Toriyama introduced a new concept to turn it upside down again, similar to how he handled power levels. The Freeza saga had battle powers reaching absurd heights and numbers. We were dealing with the strongest people in the universe. Then came ...

Hey now Uub can also get points for cultural references, since he looks like the Scream before he's spit out.

Uub is not a very interesting character because he's driven by loyalty alone. His ties to his village and Goku are too great to do anything else. He also seems to like fighting after ...

At least Uub does give Baby a the worst stomach ache of all time to buy time for Goku later on...

Ah yes having a deeper sounding voice is one of the few good things about being sick.

What we know as Ultra Instinct reminds me of the so-called "flow state", a state of being where you're one with what you're doing. It's also characterized as being without thoughts; your body acts on its own. It can happen in all sorts of activities, from cleaning the floor to fighting a boxing ...

I was sceptical about this film after seeing some leaks about the plot, which made it seem like a rehash. I was also disappointed by the switch to 3D after a stellar 2D animated film which far surpassed its recent predecessors. But I was still drawn by the slice of life aspects of it. Watching the ...

Maybe through some kind of equalizing event, a way to exploit the enormous powers the Saiyans wield. That would break the linear development that has been going on since the beginning of DB.

Gotta love that SSJ3 sequence. And the model of the Lookout.

How valid is this? (the male characters looking the same)

It's valid except that the eyes of Goku, Yamcha and Tenshinhan should look different. If the Saiyans turn Super they are ...
