Uh, I don't think most of these skins were ever intended to be additional costumes, maybe with the exception of hoverchair Freeza. They're just models that are used for different purposes in the game (Babidi for Vegeta's Majin Transformation, Kibito for Kaioshin's Fusion etc.), but have been forcibl...

If you watch the first dubbed Brolli movie, you'll note how a lot of the music just doesn't fit in with some of the scenes at all. Especially the lyrics. Just because Z has fighting in it, doesn't mean that it's specifically just that. ;\ You know, I'm pretty sure it doesn't have a whole lot of din...

Just... just... Keep the things that slow down the series too much like staring contests, hire the studio that did first episode of Rock Lee vs Gaara fight in Naruto to do the animation, give more screentime to second-stringers like Yamcha or (of course) The Ginyu Force, and I'd be in heaven.

Pichi-pichi gyaru!

Just a pointless question, how was it translated in FUNi dub, FUNi sub and Viz manga? I know what it means, but I'm curious how was it handled by translators.

Aye, power levels seem to differ with overall energy output even if one is not able to willingly control them per se (for example, Gohan's reading was diminishing when he was becoming weaker in the battle with Reecoome). Basically, they're able to power-up and raise their PL above a certain average,...

Um, not really. When he told him to hurry up, he said it out loud, so that Trunks would hear (and see) him through Babidi's channel to all people on Earth. It's nto that Goku doesn't use telepathy, he used it as early as Saiyan Saga (and perhaps earlier, I don't remember), but he seems only able to ...

Did he use telepathy with Kid Trunks? I always believed they could communicate thanks to Babidi. But yes, Goku always seemed to have superior additional abilities then most fighters, like the "mind reading" thing with Kuririn on Namek. Convenient plot deviced, most of them. But yeah, I thi...

One question, are the cut-scenes even marginally better than on trailers, or does Raditz still need to take a leak?

Well, I've downloaded some movies and I have... mixed impressions. Some characters have some really cool physical combos (Goku, #18), but most of them have Ultimates that are just quick, straightforward ki blasts, only bigger and with a taunt beforehand. Well, at least the beam struggles seem to loo...

Wow, I've been thinking about the same thing lately! I'm a sucker for retellings like that and, needless to say, a huge fan of the Ultimate line. Whereas many people just don't like huge changes, I love those neat ideas like what they did with Black Widow in the Ultimates, although there are still s...

I'm not really that familiar with American fandom from obvious reasons, but I can tell you what changed in the Polish fandom... Well, it's pretty natural.

Actually, Vegeta told Freeza that he surpassed his father when he was still a kid, so Kid Vegeta's PL would be actually higher than King Vegeta's.

The graphics don't show any significant improvement, but seeing as they really seem to add much more characters, plus a complex Story Mode, and give the fighting system some nice improvements, I think we can forgive them.
