One Piece can be cheesy but I've never found it cheesy in the typical American way where it seems stripped-down, diluted and forced into being happy. Like, in the Apis mini-arc, the ending is a lot more bittersweet than a Disney ending, where we'd hear Celine Dion warbling away while the dragon swoo...

I know Trunks takes you around time, but within the same timezone there are people that take you around the worlds you explore - it's a staple of all MMOs and usually certain classes get this ability themselves later on. So to go from West City to East City or whatever, you'd speak to these people a...

I've just read the whole thing. It's important that this is a manga rather than just a written story because it elevates it above what it would be if it was just text; the same can be said of Dragon Ball and Dragon Ball Z itself. Most of DB/Z would work horribly as just text and a huge portion of it...

Guys, trust me, you don't want it to be free. Free MMOs suck. Not only is the moderation lax, you get less events and so on and - most importantly - there'll be another way for the hosts to recoup costs and profit. A way like charging real money for in-game items; a practice that makes a mockery of ...

One Piece is a great successor to DB without being the same. It seems to be massively inspired by DB without stooping to brainless imitation. And interesting thing is that Oda says that he doesn't care if they fights are epic or not and doesn't really care how they go; he just does them to let off s...

Anyway, I apologize for my sound quality, which really gets worse as the episode goes on. We had to re-record a lot of my lines as the episode went on, and even then it's still often undecipherable. I'm really not sure what happened, but Mike did his best to edit around it. I actually thought it wa...

Vegeta was fighting Goku, of all people. Spopovitch was fighting a little girl. At least, in comparison to his steroid abusing, magically enhanced self. Yeah but Goku and Vegeta were more or less matched (SSJ3 aside) whereas Videl broke his neck by 180 degrees. It doesn't matter if your neck was br...

All Faulconer delivered was crap aimed at 14-year-old Americans with black hoodies on. It arguably works when you're a young teenager but when you grow up, it sounds actually laughable. So horribly overwrought and ham-fisted. For the record, I'm not particularly a fan of the Japanese music. It defin...

I'm saying it in the context that some people seem to think Funi aren't expecting to sell much. If Diet Coke truly only sold to people who were genuinely on a diet and yet still wanted to drink carbonated, caffeinated sweet water (rather than, y'know, actually healthy food and drinks), it would have...

Piccolo: Turban only Wh-HOA, let's not get carried away here. Some things are best left to the imagination. :wink: Well he'd be like a green Ken doll anyway. For me I'd have to say: Vegeta's pink shirt - after all, real men wear pink The clothes that Goku and Piccolo wear for their driving lessons ...

Yeah typical advertising spiel. Or do you also think that Pepsi Max is really for people that skateboard on the roofs of Skyscrapers? You also have to put it in the context that it was being announced at a pretty hardcore place - your average person will never, ever set foot inside an anime con. I m...
