Re: Are the Saiyans Massively faster than light by the time of Super?

Toriyama obviously doesn't care about that. So much so he never bothered to approach this, so it's highly inconsistent overall. So there's little reason to overthink this subject. I think everyone can agree that Whis and the other angels at least are much faster than light, as their technique is ev...

Re: Are the Saiyans Massively faster than light by the time of Super?

Silly argument as you're never going to prove things precisely without explicit in-universe info. But considering that Dyspo was stated to be faster than light (and sound, though that's pretty redundant), and his 'light bullet' technique was said to amplify his speed thousands of times, and his ulti...

Re: So all you need to be the strongest in the universe is to just wish it?

Wasn't that the point of Nappa and Vegeta came to Earth for the Dragon Balls, to wish to be the strongest in the Universe? Technically, their wish was to be Super Saiyans, but at that point in the saga the Super Saiyan was the strongest fighter in the universe. Shenron could have granted that since...

You have to actually have the potential apparently. If Mr. Satan made that wish, he might get as strong as Master Roshi but not much more.

Re: Dragon Ball Super Gets Cancelled Overseas Over Sexual Harassment Claims

Ok, all the politics/economics/society/whatever made my head spin.

Re: So...Gokuism. Your thoughts on it?

Apparently, Gokuism is defined as "the belief that the principles of Dragon Ball provide a moral compass for one’s life, and that Goku is an ideal role model and moralistic person." This is from the Dao of Dragon Ball, and - okay, time to give my two cents on this. THIS IS THE STUPIDEST F...

Re: Dragon Ball Super Gets Cancelled Overseas Over Sexual Harassment Claims

You will find no more left-wing a people than queer folks. The idea that queer people (especially trans people) would so uniformly espouse communism as a 'violent' political ideology is pretty ridiculous. We'll defend ourselves but our politics are staunchly not authoritarian. Most LGBT people toda...

Re: Dragon Ball Super Gets Cancelled Overseas Over Sexual Harassment Claims

Just want to add that it's ok to "argue with the dictionary". The dictionary is a helpful resource, but it's important to know when to put it aside and use your own judgement and reasoning. You shouldn't just assume that the dictionary is always right. No, but that doesn't mean you can ma...

Re: Dragon Ball Super Gets Cancelled Overseas Over Sexual Harassment Claims

It's like how some conservatives claim that the Nazis couldn't have been conservative because they called themselves 'socialist'. This is literally the thing that you are doing, right now. Not at all. You're the one claiming the USSR and Maoist China were right-wing. Because that's wrong. A state w...

Re: Dragon Ball Super Gets Cancelled Overseas Over Sexual Harassment Claims

Calling the likes of the USSR 'reactionary conservatives' makes zero sense. It seems like you're trying to redefine everything to fit your preconceived notions - everything left must be good, and everything right must be bad, so every bad government had to have been right-wing, and not left-wing. I...

Kind of a silly topic, but I was just wondering if it had some kind of anti gravity technology or he just levitated it with his own ki or telekinesis.

Re: Dragon Ball Super Gets Cancelled Overseas Over Sexual Harassment Claims

Seems you have your own peculiar definition of communism and ignore all of the other ways it's been conceived of and implemented throughout history. I see no evidence that a completely stateless, anarchist society would ever work on a large scale either. No, I have the definition. It's your problem...

Re: With DB targeting a more international audience nowadays, do you see a minority someday becoming part of the main ca

I agree that adding new characters just as token minorities is pointless. A character should actually have a connection to the story and a reason to be there. That's why I want Uub to become a main character, because he was established quite a while ago and it would feel natural for him to join the ...

Re: Why didn't Zamasu account for Zeno?

If there is uncertainty in Super Shenron being able to grant "any" wish, I would think that the story would have made that point known by this point. According to both of the Zeno here, the dragon can infact do anything. https://youtu.be/LmvwPVwxQtk Yeah but they said that about the origi...
