Re: Do you wish Dragon Ball had more diverse powers?

I'd like to see Toriyama bring out some more funny gag powers. Devil Man could make people's hearts explode if they had any evil intent in them. There's that guy who just smelled bad and would rub his crotch and try to make you smell his finger. Monster Carrot could turn people into carrots. They do...

Re: What if Masako Nozawa dies? (God forbid)

Masako Nozawa sounds very tired as Goku. Especially young Goku. The performance lacks the energy we've heard before. Now I know she's not as young as she was before and her performance during Super probably was already a small step down from GT and the video games but this is the first time it's re...

Re: How do you see Crunchyroll's growing monopoly on anime distribution affecting Dragon Ball?

They just aren't cut out for this sort of thing and should stay in their lane, but sadly this series still appears to be cursed to fall into incapable hands on this front forever. I'm going to be honest. I haven't bought an official U.S. release of a Dragon Ball product since Resurrection F. Every ...

Don't want to bring the topic down but the new Kakarot DLC has Nozawa both as young and adult Goku and well.... (From my DBZ: Kakarot post) Masaka Nozawa sounds very tired as Goku. Especially young Goku. The performance lacks the energy we've heard before. Now I know she's not as young as she was b...

Masako Nozawa seems to be in impeccable health for a woman of her age.

Re: What Can A Tournament Of Power Part II Offer?

In all honesty I can't see a second tournament being good. The last one was overly long and boring. Sure the kefla fight/elimination and Jiren elimination were really cool, but everything else in-between felt like wasted potential. I think there's much more interesting story potential in just having...

Re: Ideal English Goku Voice?

I think in terms of just, how the voice sounds, the tone, the attitude, etc... MasakoX has it nailed for me. Don't get me wrong, he's playing a version of the character that is incongruent with the actual Goku but even so, I feel transplanting his voice, maybe pitched a teeny bit lower so as to pla...

Re: It’s literally such a SHAME how LAME and WASTED Videl became.

Well, saying a "boring housewife" is rude, imo. But, I also don't like the fact that when a lady gets married she is automatically reduced to a "housewife" for the rest of her life, when in reality, one of them is much stronger than the husband (hello C-18). I can understand tha...

Re: Goku Staying Dead Was Perfect

Gohan isn't perfect but he's a still a better protector than Goku because, like I said in my analysis, he won't give bad guys the chance to cause a disaster . Cell very nearly destroyed Earth because Gohan was too busy toying with Cell to end the fight right away. His first stint as The World's Str...

Re: It’s literally such a SHAME how LAME and WASTED Videl became.

I said that it doesn't actually fix anything. She's still just supportive wife archetype at the end of the day.
The contrast with Mr. Satan is just me looking too deep into it because the series gives her absolutely nothing to do outside of existing in the background.

Re: What's more important for you: Fitting voices, Good voice acting or Good screams?

Ideally a bit of everything. Kyle Hebert sounds nothing like Nozawa, but his voice performance still fits Gohan's dorky personality. So you can still "fit" the character even if you don't sound the same as the original seiyuu, that would just be a nice bonus. One that comes to mind is Aqua...

Re: Ideal English Goku Voice?

This is a tough question to answer because of the nature of ADR. You're always going to be limited to the lip flaps being written for a language that could not be more diametrically opposed to a latin root language like English. So no matter how perfect the writing of the script there will be some m...

Re: It’s literally such a SHAME how LAME and WASTED Videl became.

It's not much but the Superhero movied mentioned that she's a martial arts teacher/self defense trainer by day. So at least they show that she used her previous passion for combat into something constructive to help other people. It's a good contrast to her father who used his status and combat prow...

Re: The Two Most Important Characters.

Out of universe (because that's more interesting to me) Goku and Bulma. Without them there is no story. I guess an honorable mention to Shen Long since his existence is the catalyst for getting Bulma out in the wild in the first place. I do want to point out that even as Bulma took more of a back se...

Re: Coolest female?

Probably Bulma. Sure she's not a badass powerhouse like 18, but without her brain power all the male characters would be lost most of the time.

Re: Is The Manga Too Long?

To be fair I think the chapter count of Super is too long as well. It's like 90 chapters now and pretty much no new territory has been covered. The last piece of Dragon Ball story to actually expand the lore was Battle of Gods, and that was a movie first, so that doesn't really count. I guess the To...

Is The Manga Too Long?

By that I mean are the current chapter's too long in page count? I hadn't even glanced in the manga's direction since the Tournament of Power ended, and that was just to see if Shueisha was planning to continue publication after the anime ended. This week I've gone and marathoned my way through the ...

Re: Dragon Ball Movies Available in HD

It crazy just how far fans have gone to give us a "definitive" product. Not only have they synced the Blu-ray audio to the VOD version with higher picture quality, they've also synced up Steve Simmons' official subtitles, synced up the Funimation English dub to all the movies, and the unce...
