Re: Dragon Ball and Toxic Masculinity
I knew I’d get a reaction from you on that one. But yeah, hood as in very much oriented towards people of colour, particularly those in lower socioeconomic situations, thus they’re more likely to be reactionary. Geekdom101 is a pretty good example of this, last I checked his audience really do have...

Re: Dragon Ball Super: Manga Chapter 89 - Official Discussion Thread
Chapter was okay, not super into whats going on but i'm keeping an open mind. Just hope there's a decent payoff by the end of it, like maybe Trunks and Goten end up joining PIccolo in infiltrating the Red Ribbon Base and actually being their full stop for the final Gamma 1, 2 and Cell Max show down.

Re: Theory: The Beast Form is Gohan's "SSJ2" equivalent of Ikari as Ultimate (and also his SSJ4)
I can get behind "Beast" being an amalgamation of his Ultimate State and SS2, If anything it makes the most sense in describing what exactly happened. The Ultimate Power Up gave Gohan access to his full power without the stress of a true physical transformation but that Unlocked Potential ...

Re: When I compare all the English voices of goku including dbza the one that sounds like how goku sounds like in my hea
In literally every episode of Abridged they open it with saying this is a "Fan Based Parody" and please support the "OFFICIAL Release" meaning they themselves support Funimation and Toei, they're not trying to be serious competition. Its fine if you're a fan but I don't get how o...

Re: When I compare all the English voices of goku including dbza the one that sounds like how goku sounds like in my hea
I echo the non-sentiment towards the TFS voice acting, the fact that some folks do champion behind it so hard has always been baffling to me. I mean, I liked WeeklyTubeShow's Piccolo "black" spoof character he created but in NO WAY EVER would I vouch for him to be the official English Picc...

Re: "Dragon Ball Super" Series Official Announcement & Discussion Thread
To be honest, I’m perfectly fine with just the Manga continuing for now.. Anything else is just extra, animated stuff will get here when it gets here.

Re: "Dragon Ball Super (Manga)" Official Discussion Thread
The only real concern I have is that I don’t recall really chuckling at a single panel of the manga since I started reading it consistently which goes way back to the Zamasu arc. So if this is supposed to be a more comedy related storyline I’m not too sure Toyotaro can translate Toriyama’s humor all...

Re: Unpopular DB opinions
I think the "pummel duels" (I forget what they're called in the games) only became a tired trope in Super because most of them looked the same. I think every "Shot exchange" (ah! there it is!) in the original series had its own unique spin to it and I don't recall Goku going &quo...

Re: "(Super) Dragon Ball Heroes" Official Discussion Thread
Do they explain why they went with the design we have? The Golden SS4 is a winner for sure! Though my guess would be that they tried to go for a hypothetical SS4/God Ki mix without actually mixing them together (just yet, I'm sure its coming at some point). So with that we have current LB4 which is ...

Just end it, give it one last hoorah story arc and that’s it.

Re: Times that the series did genuine foreshadowing?
Isn't there a difference between foreshadowing and a set up? One is necessary (Set up) while the other isnt (foreshadowing). I'd say Piccolo's death in the Saiyan was a set up for them to travel through space and discover more about his alien race while Kaio's statement about their being a true evi...

But he's already a ladies man, he even bagged Bulma with those sames scars and a chipped tooth. He never expressed the scars as being an insecurity of his.

Re: Do you want a spin-off about Gohan?
As long as he doesn’t have to be “Whipped into shape” for the Kagillionth time, I’d be game for it. Not a full on side series but a single arc would be enough.

Re: Unpopular DB opinions
Beast Gohan has grown on me.. Not in the sense that I like it now, I still think its insanely stupid looking but I guess after seeing so many different fan art pieces of it all over instagram, my eyes have grown used to seeing it so I'm not as repulsed by it at the moment.

Re: Frieza now stronger than Beerus?
I am pretty sure Beerus is still supposed to be stronger than all the other mortals at this stage. It almost seems as if the writers are moving the goalposts with him. Honestly while I think they are starting to stretch it a little thin as far keeping Beerus as the current threshold for power, I th...
