Contemplating Vegeta's position in and outside the DB Universe

Vegeta has had throughout the entirety of DBZ and DBSuper instances in which not just himself (deluded or not) but many other Z fighters and/or enemies recognized he surpassed Goku. Of course we know Goku has always been, is and will always be number one, the hero, the most important, regardless of ...

Re: Do you prefer many short arcs or fewer long arcs?

Honestly I always saw things in a more complex way, like most things I take a look at. Regarding DB/DBZ/DBS arcs, most small phases of a few episodes, or sometimes over ten or even what seems to be an arc by itself preceding the big one where the main villain is confronted, can and perhaps should be...

Re: What Would Be The Greatest Blow To A Saiyan's Pride?

Since Saiyans are a primitive and savage species decent only at fighting, naturally an utter and humiliating defeat in battle would be the greatest blow to a Saiyan's pride. Just look at Vegeta when he was annihilated by Zamasu during their first confrontation, he was shattered. Not only was he con...

Re: How would Goku react to see Bardock and/or Gine?

Bardock is in every Dragon Ball video game by divine writ, and yet none of them ever do anything with him being able to interact with Goku. At least with every DB game I've played that has interactions between characters, the standard script for Goku and Bardock always glosses over it. Usually we g...

Re: Are the gods truly amoral, or... ?

Of course they would just move on (Beerus and Whis) if Goku (and Vegeta, and Bulma, and everyone else they met on Earth) died, unless Whis really has some expectations about Goku's and Vegeta's potential to become the next Hakaishin for Universe 7. That's the only reason. The discussion about the wh...

How would Goku react to see Bardock and/or Gine?

I know perfectly beforehand this is one of the immense list of questions asked over and over throughout the years, but how would Goku react to see his parents, or one of them (and there were multiple occasions where it could have been done in theory, and even speculated that it would happen - and it...

Re: Does the original Dragonball need a reboot?

The quality of the animation and of the choreography of the fights is much, much lower than the average of DBZ, DBZ's Movies, DBSuper. Err, I respectfully disagree with this. Considering Dragon Ball is much more rooted in hand-to-hand martial arts, it's able to display much better choreography as t...

Re: Why do English-speaking fans belittle the non-FUNimation dubs?

I think it's the other way around. Europe imported and dubbed DB and DBZ in the early nineties "Europe" is a continent so it didn't import anything, AB Groupe however did and it was how most European countries licensed to make a dub of DB, Z and GT. UK and Scandinavian countries got the '...

Are the gods truly amoral, or... ?

We've seen multiple instances where it became obvious that Beerus (or any other Hakaishin, presumably) and Whis (or any other Tenshi, presumably) are rather amoral beings/entities. Ever since Battle of Gods and throughout the entirety of the arcs of DBSuper it was implied and even obvious that they ...

Re: Official On-Going Dragon Ball Super Movie Thread: "Broly"

Just a few quick concepts to add to my mid-term review posted yesterday (I'll add in-depth stuff later on, I just don't have the time now): - Beerus' role in this movie is negligible, he almost only appears. Upon the reveal of his existence, he was supposed to be an unassailable godly entity, but th...

Vegeta's power throughout Z and Super and his current co-star role

I'd like to share this with you to get your opinions on the subject. Vegeta was introduced in DBZ as (what was thought to be, and what he claimed to be) the strongest warrior in the Universe at that point, by far the strongest of the few survivors of a nearly extinguished warrior race (far above Nap...

Re: Should I let my 9 year old watch DBZ?

Most definitely, you should, but with supervision (as in everything when a parent or caretaker takes care of a child in all of his aspects, emotional growth, mental health, physical health, everything). Dragon Ball (referring to the entirety of the story here, with obvious focus on the canon long se...

Re: Why do English-speaking fans belittle the non-FUNimation dubs?

I think it's the other way around. Europe imported and dubbed DB and DBZ in the early nineties, Funimation only imported DBZ (and at first only DBZ) in the turn of the century. Shunsuke Kikuchi's BGM/score was a huge, fundamental part of what made the series what they were. I was disgusted when I fi...

Re: Does the original Dragonball need a reboot?

I can't see why Dragon Ball should need a reboot... Honestly. For what purpose, for animation quality? Dragon Ball started as a slice of life anime, then Toriyama gradually saw the potential to turn it into something really serious and more violent, with the introduction of Tenshinhan but especially...

Re: Zamasu. Hero or Main Villain of next arc? *Spoiler*

Might be more interesting, but harder to explain (which might actually be good for the story in terms of its complexity in the long run...) and more unnatural.
