Re: Vegeta wanting to surpass goku again is ruining dragon b

Trying to surpass Goku is his motivation in life. How is that going against his character?

Re: What's with all the focus on Vegeta?

I obviously have no basis for this, but I think Vegeta has grown on Toriyama. It has been known for a while that he disliked the character, but I think he's grown on him over the years. That and maybe he's acknowledging the fact that Vegeta is extremely popular among fans.

You could also look at it ...

Re: How would you write a story about Cell coming back?

I wouldn't. We've been dealing with the same villains for years, over and over through the games. Let's focus entirely on new material from here on out.

Re: Fandom in the 1980s and early 1990s

The fandom is different across the board. We all got into the franchise in different ways, but we all love it regardless. I see too much bickering and fighting amongst fans, but we really need to learn to accept the fact that not everyone has the same preferences as us.

Re: About Android 17...

It makes no logical sense how or why 17 would be there near the end of the series, but that's Toriyama for you.

Re: Official On-Going DBZ 2015 Movie Thread: "Resurrection '

I'm late to the party as far as this thread goes, but here are my general thoughts:

Resurrection 'F' was a fun experience. It had all the action and comedy you'd expect from Z-era Toriyama. It had it's issues, but overall I had a good time watching it.

Re: Is Movie 10 the new Movie 11?

I've always thought Movie 10 was worse than 11. I'm actually pretty shocked that it's even a debate to be honest.

I'm thinking he would have done something similar to what occurred with Super Boo, where he went from city-to-city, destroying them one by one.

Re: Growing Attached to the Voices of Characters

I was introduced to the series with the Ocean cast in 1996, but adjusted to the Funi in-house Texas cast when they took over during Season 3. Hated those voices at the time, but they grew on me. I am attached to that cast now and can't imagine the characters being voiced by anyone else. I even went ...

Re: Lost in Translation

This is an interesting topic. I can see why including a "hick" dialect would better indicate that Goku is uneducated, but I don't feel it's necessary in other languages. I think there are ways to display that point without using such a dialect.

Re: Why not let Goten and Trunks grow up?

I don't get it either. Even with some of the time skips - 6 months from Boo to the start of Super and the time between Freeza's revival and when he comes to Earth - they still look the same age. At some point during Super's run, I would really love to see Goten and Trunks reach the age that they ...

Re: DB and DBZ: Parts vs Whole

Not accounting for nostalgia, a lot of people (including myself) feel that the first half(?)/part is better than the second. Kid Goku's adventure's as a child are just better told and quite frankly more cohesive and interesting narratives. However, no one can deny the impact the Z portion of the ...

Re: Potential replacement actors (especially for FUNimation)

I'm pretty sure Funimation covers their travel costs when they fly out to Texas to record. They always seem to make sure they keep consistency in their casting, with a few exceptions. Stephanie Nadolny-to-Colleen Clinkenbeard is probably the biggest casting change we've seen from them, and I think ...
