Re: The feeling of the Super manga compared to the original DB manga
I would have prefered two options the manga should have started with the Universe 6 tournament or When they released the tankobon, the Revival of F chapters Toyotaro did should have been included with an extra chapter to complete the arc. Then do three or four chapters of the Broly movie. It feels s...

Re: Which character and/or plotline in the franchise is the biggest waste of potential?
As much as I love the cell arc and Cell as a villain, I wish Toriyama kept the mystery up a tad bit longer instead of him monologuing his plan to Piccolo.

Re: Appreciating the Little Things
One of my favorite fillers is Goku befriending a Fox that wanted to change his ways and become a teacher. The filler in one episode showed one of DB's main themes which is redemption. Everyone deserves a second chance. Its simple but I love it. Unlike other filler characters with the exception of Pi...

Re: Best way to watch the English Dub for the first time?
How I think you watch the series dubbed. The OG Dragon Ball first. I personally think it is a fine dub. Not perfect but overall a better start with Funi's in house then DBZ Season 3 did. Then watch DBZ Kai Dubbed. As much as I like the original series dubbed (minus season 3), Kai is when the actors ...

Re: Kakarot vs Kakarotto - The Vegerot/Vegetto(ito) effect
When I first watched it on Toonami back in 2002, I thought it was a weird way for combinding Vegeta and Goku. I thought it should have been spelled Vegetu instead of Vegetto. Ah to be young again. As I started to research more of the series after it ended its toonami run, I found out Kakarot was act...

Re: Most accurate Viz release of the manga?
I feel like the single releases are the best bet. I have some of the first printings from almost 15 to 16 years ago where they were less cencored.
I also would say full colored, but Viz apparently scrapped that after Freeza.

Re: Wow. The GT OST.
For all of GT faults, the music isn't one of them. It really does evoke early dragon ball. Which makes sense since that's what they were trying to go for early in GT.

Re: What would a reboot have to do in order to comply to today's standards?
If a reboot does ever happen, I kind of want them to mix things up. Like have Yamcha make it to at least the semi finals in one of the tournaments. Maybe have Tien survive the Saiyan assault and he accompanies the others to Namek. I know these are far fetched, but I like it when reboots change thing...

Did General Blue save the RR arc?
Now I'm not sure about you guys, but General Blue made the Red Ribbon arc good. Not to say the Silver and White stuff was bad, but they were kind of bland. Murasaki being the exception. Blue on the other hand was a fun and cheesy kind of villain that made me enjoy the time he was on the pages of the...

Re: How relatable is Vegeta?
I think what made Vegeta relatable was more of how much he trained but Goku with his natural talent would surpass him. This came more from the Buu arc when he went on a speech on how no matter how hard he pushed himself, he could never keep up with Goku's talent for fighting. So in a way I can see w...

Re: Could have Dragon Ball survived in the English Speaking world without Cartoon Network?
I'm surprised no one has brought up the Made in Japan morning block on Fox Family. Sure it was reruns of Digimon and Mega Man but it had Flint the Time Detective, Monster Rancher and maybe BeyBlade but that one could have been on the block once Jetix took over. Also what was cool about the Made in J...

Re: The All-Purpose Bardock & Goku Thread
While I agree that Bardock should just stay dead. Although videogame canon likes to keep him around. I'm not going to lie and say he doesn't look bad ass as a super saiyan. However, him meeting Goku will mean nothing. Goku doesn't even know who his parents are, especially since he had the head traum...

Re: Could have Dragon Ball survived in the English Speaking world without Cartoon Network?
I think it's a mix between both. Yeah it would have done well, but the constant reruns and the heavy promotion of the series from CN definitely helped boost it. Now I first saw the series on Saturday morning block, and the first episodes I watched were the Ginyu Force showing up. However that was on...

Re: What would a reboot have to do in order to comply to today's standards?
The consequences in the original comic were light, though. That doesn't really tackle the issue that his sexual assault was still being played for laughs. At least the Red Ribbon Army soldiers trying to rape Blooma were almost immediately killed. ...also one of them was a racist caricature. Yikes. ...

Re: What would a reboot have to do in order to comply to today's standards?
The main difference between Toriyama's Roshi compared to modern day's Roshi. Roshi in the original series, while perverted, there was always consequences to his actions. Anytime he tried to peep or grope, he was always struck back or that he would fail. Like when he was trying to peep on Bulma, he w...

Re: Most underwhelming character death in the franchise?
Remember how in the anime version of Resurrection F, Piccolo was killed? I sure didn't until just now. He just goes out with a "nothing death". That might be the most underwhelming one, though maybe it fits better as a candidate for the most forgettable one. Pretty much this. It was already an unde...

Re: The hills we choose to die on and the fights we battle for when it comes to Dragon Ball
I meant that if its successful enough it can be both evergreen (As in enduring success) AND have an actual ending. The term evergreen franchise was used as early as Kai. I don't know if it's the right term but I've heard it used in relation to franchises that go on and on without ending. Regardless...

Re: How would you have handled GT?
I would have kept the first two arcs roughly the same. Except the wish of Porunga made Goku his normal size again. If Porunga could do that they would've done that in series already. They side stepped it by saying it would put a strain on his body. Or something close to that. I think they just said...
