Re: Characters and their fandoms.

I joke that Piccolo is my green husband a lot. :lol: He's got fangirls too and I'm one of 'em.

Re: Headcannon

Goku has a traumatic brain injury and learned to adapt around it. He hit his head and was literally in a coma when he was a baby. He woke up with a totally different personality, which sometimes happens to people with that kind of injury IRL. His gaffes with social interaction and anything not relat...

Re:

No it doesn't as far as I know. Only in the Trunks Special (about Trunks in the future) he is described with a soft side I think. But don't forget, he may have raped her. And she probably liked it, hence that there is no fuzz about it. He is a prince, he owns everything, remember? "Give me wha...

I made a thread about this in the fanworks section...just saying that because the OP mentioned not seeing a thread for this anywhere.

Re: So I just realized Piccolo never killed anyone in DBZ after Radditz/Goku

Personally from my perspective, everytime an enemy comes, Piccolo doesn't seem strong enough to kill said enemy. His last chance at killing someone were the Freeza soldiers, or maybe even Sorbet. But he hasn't been getting any spotlight lately, so it makes sense. The saiyans literally took over the...

Re: Why do Vegeta fans get mad whenever Goku gets a kill?

People need to write more fanfics or do fanmangas if they want Vegeta to get the kill.

I kinda like to reference Guardians of the Galaxy (movie). Everybody helps Quill hold the Infinity Stone, but it's Quill who opens his hand to let loose the blast that kills Ronan while everyone else supports him.

Re: Things that grind your gears

X-posted as a comment I made on someone's Youtube video. People love to call Raditz weak. Yeah, end-series DBZ Goku could kill him with a fart, but as a first enemy Raditz handed everyone their a$$ before he got taken out and it took three people to beat him. (Piccolo, Goku, and Gohan although Gohan...

Re: Can Saiyans survive in space?

I kinda headcanon Saiyajins as having lungs that are way more efficient than human lungs. Basically they can get more oxygen out of a single breath than humans do. This lets them breathe safely in environments with less oxygen, and in its total absence they'll stay conscious and avoid brain damage f...

Re: Things that grind your gears

Goku being called a "sociopath". I've seen this word being tossed around too much recently when people have been trying to articulate what Goku's current characterisation in Supe is, and it annoys the fuck out of me how nonchalantly people use that term. Seriously, do some fucking researc...

Re: Jinzouningen psyche

Also, the lack of perspective that kind of free power, not gained through effort but raped into your own body by a Mengele-esque madman. Every and each superhuman earthling character depicted in DB but C17, C18 and C20 gained their power by training and battling. How breaking would that power be fo...

Re: Do you have headcanons? Share them!

...Wow. :wtf: Umm, My headcanon is that magic and technology can counter, equate, and bypass ki, up to levels towards the Gods. If you can make a time machine, anything is theoretically possible. Cool! I think it would be neat if somebody created rooms that neutralize ki in a manner similar to cell...

Re: What was your all time Picco-"low'?

I was a bit upset when the Ocean dub switched to the Funimation dub in the middle of the Freeza saga. The voices all changed and it was so confusing. I kept watching because I cared enough about the characters to stick with it, but I really missed McNeil and Drummond as Piccolo and Vegeta. ETA: This...

Re: How Do You Destroy A Universe

Beerus may also be able to simply break the bonds that hold atoms together. Maybe he starts at a "point zero" in the universe and this attack moves outward in a sphere at the speed of light. Everything it touches goes from cohesive atoms to loose particles. Give it a couple billion years o...

Do you have headcanons? Share them!

I love headcanons. I have some that have stuck with me since I first started watching DBZ. I tend to go a bit in depth with mine, so I'm putting them behind spoiler tags to spare you the scrolling. Some involve anatomy, others invisible disabilities and still more are things that make a character di...

Re: General Fan Fiction Thread

An next question, how do you usually handle a sad scene? Getting across the emotion and all? I haven't written many so my experience is limited on this front. The few times I have, I've mostly focused on how the characters react to the sad event. Vegeta tries to mask his grief by lashing out, Dende...

Re: What is the general fan consensus on Broly?

He seems like a very polarizing character among fans, what is the general fan consensus? Is he loved or hated? I think he's kinda cool. I've got my own invisible disability headcanon for Broly. It makes his life tragic-- not due to the disability, but due to the way he was treated growing up. He co...

if goku shoots a kamehame into space he decides if it explodes midway or keeps going.
Yeah, if the blast thrower decides to make it explode, but I imagine they may not be able to detonate it if it gets super far off into space unless they have really good ki control.
