Vegeta as a Galactic Patrolman

It's very likely that Vegeta, who wiped out worlds across the galaxy and now taking the role of a galactic peacekeeper, will encounter worlds from his past that he enslaved/decimated under Freeza's command.

It should serve as a fine dramatic irony for him to meet the people whose lives he ruined ...

Re: Hans Zimmer and a Dragon Ball live-action movie

That was actually Zimmer?

That was a pretty neat score. And his previous work on heroes has been wonderful (Batman, Superman, Wonder Woman, X-Men, Spider-Man), to say nothing of his other music.

Re: Mike McFarland Diagnosed With Brain Tumor

A terrible thing to happen to Mike MacFarland.

All I can say is that I hope he recovers from this, and hooks onto however good a chance he has of recovery.

Re: Mike McFarland Diagnosed With Brain Tumor

McFarland is a great Master Roshi IMO, as well as Buggy the Clown from One Piece, Belze from BLack Cat, Goemon from Lupin III and many others.

I hope he recovers well enough.

Re: Anyone annoyed by the Crunchyroll English dub's pronunciation of "Pansy"?

What are you going to do if they decided that the classical "pansy" was too risky to use due to its history as a demeaning insult?

Re: I'm the official translator for the new Portuguese edition of the Dragon Ball manga!!

Many congratulations OP! Hope you have a good run.

I'm sure you will do your best, but don't sweat it if some "lost in translation" issues occur, that's just part of the trade.

Re: "Serious Dragon Ball" erasure


Eh, yeah. I mean, I swear that I can't be the only person on the planet you likes more than one thing, but so often there's these stark contrasts within fandom spaces that split off into the silliest little tribes and I'm like...okay? Whatever?

Give me poop jokes and then give me hot topless guys ...

Re: "Serious Dragon Ball" erasure


I think the solution to escaping conflict with one's fandom is in being flexible and open-minded, while focusing on why one loves art, rather than what little arbitrary things about worldbuilding, tone or gay hair color of the week might be 'not high enough art' or whatever.

One perhaps needs ...

Re: Do you consider Piccolo and Demon King Piccolo the same person or separate entities?

Reincarnation of the same person is a tricky thing, especially since the Demon King had previously been split from another person (Kami).

I would consider Piccolo to be his own person, simply speaking. He walked the road to his own identity, anyway.

Re: Do you consider Goku a Hero?

Yes, I consider Goku a hero; a flawed hero but still a hero. And I am annoyed by how DB Super gave his actions bad consequences.

Re: Furuya Tooru (Yamcha) Admits to Physically Abusing Woman He Had An Affair With

That's a mess. An absolute mess.

Actors have masks as their trade. The real-life stuff will never fail to surprise you.
