I think he was relatively dreadful. At the very least, you could see where Sabat was going with his characterizations. Schemmel tended to make the character sound like a bipolar midnight comedian.

The small length of episodes highlighting Zarbon and Dodoria were some of the best parts of Z.

New section idea

Dunno if this is totally unoriginal for a DB site-

A section where users can submit their best versions of DB/Z/GT characters created with Miis and other custom character creators (Soul Calibur 4, the new 360 Avatars, Spore Creature Creator, etc).

Benefits-
1 Section would pull more visits
2 More ...

Also, it kind of moots the point of Gohan being "special" enough to turn SSJ2 if Goku and Vegeta end up being able to do it just a few years later. At least with the Freeza saga, Toei backpedaled and went with Brolly as the "Legendary SSJ" and rectified the issue of SSJ-fest.

I forgot to add that I recently noticed that Pojo's is still around and is just as awful as I remember it. As a matter of fact, I don't think a single thing has changed on that site in 10 years- including the fact that they're still advertising the same magazine issue that I bought probably 9 years ...

The comparison doesn't work nearly as well when a userbase is dumb in spite of a user rank system. Active forums tend to have larger user rank systems for people with higher post counts. More active forums also tend to dredge up the least desirable posters. Having a more active forum, then, creates ...

From what I remember, Viz went back and forth on censorship, and their policy got even weirder after the standalone comic-styled manga line was cancelled.

Ok, I don't think these criticisms of the Freeza saga are very valid, especially the complaint that Goku has no real connection to Freeza or that Freeza has no interesting backstory whatsoever. I think it was purposeful on Toriyama's part that Freeza's past was to remain a mystery as it creates a ...

That's not necessarily true at all. You can't just make a leap of faith and say that, because higher postcounts are given certain custom titles, that members who care enough to stay active will spam their own forum.

I wouldn't mind having DBZ related ranking, but the post amounts would have to be drastically scaled down. I wish I was Kaioken :cry:

Gotta reach for something.

The only way of reaching these goals is to devote your whole life to the forum.

If the forum ends up surviving 10+ more years, then ...

Retarded suggestion, but it's not as if the show doesn't have a theme built right in-

Supermod- Kaioshin

Yeah, I miss Planet Namek. I remember either going there or to Pojo (which surprisingly hasn't changed a goddamned bit since 1996!) to get my Dragonball information.

I used to go to PN to read the fan fiction they had there back when I was still into that stuff. (Including a really long 50 txt ...

New-found love for the Freeza saga

I was one of those people who always hated the Freeza saga years ago. I think it stems from the fact that, on Sunday mornings in the mid 90s, I had to deal with the Ocean dub dropping off right in the middle of the Ginyu fight and starting right over at Raditz. Then, once the Funimation dub picked ...

Film critics are going to hate the Dragon Ball movie no matter what, so the only way for the movie to do anything substantive would be for it to make big bank.

The Midnight Run was amazing. The Rising Sun was also pretty cool, but you can't top like 12 hours of back-to-back action shows and anime.

You would think Toonami would at least pick up Gundam 00...
