Re: Anyone else find there’s been a distinct lack of tension in the ToP?

Super never had tension. They ruined it the moment it was set between end of Buu arc and the end of Z. None of the artificial tension works when you know what's going to happen, everything ending up fine.

Re: Super Episode 117 (26 November 2017)

I actually had a discussion about this with a friend of mine. Many people like to use No. 18 as an example of a character that's liked whenever someone pulls the sexism card. But #18 really hasn't been "out there" in terms of power. She was never a menace in any way to the cast, even when...

Good thing Super is not consistent at all. Oh, I mean bad thing it is.

Re: Do you think DBS is a worthy continuation of DB and DBZ?

No way it is. It tries to be both, but doesn't get what made both special in it's own ways. One thing that it runs from both is consistency. It's flip flopping everywhere.

Re: What aspects do you think tarnished the Dragonball brand

Everything that came up after the end of Z to me feels like it was a cash grab, so that'll be my answer. I loath GT and I really dislike Super. At least to Super's defense, I don't hate everything about it, just 95% of it.

Re: Stuff that makes no sense in Super

His experience pails in comparison to Goku and the results shows. It's like playing a game for 20 hours. This guy could be the highest rank possible and his competition is somewhere down the middle. Not everybody learns/adapts the same.

Re: Stuff that makes no sense in Super

I know, but a lot of people just watch Z and Z's battles is not as advanced as early Dragonball, so they don't see the adaptations of Goku's fights.

Re: Stuff that makes no sense in Super

Goku being smart enough to notice Hit's 0.1 second fighting technique so quickly. Goku of all people... :P Why do people keep saying this? Goku may be naive and even a bit dumb sometimes but when it comes to fighting, he is a savant. He outsmarts his rivals in almost every fight. Sometimes I think ...
