Long overdue, but here's "F*ck Super" entry No. 2, which I call "Gold And Purple And Red All Over!" https://i.imgur.com/hMHbupwm.png [Click ye upon yon thumbnail for full-sizened imageth.] "AGE 779-X: In an alternate reality where Beerus went back to sleep without visiting K...

All of Super's existence is collectively one of the worst decisions in the franchise's history.

The terrible, dismal, character-ruining ending of its Trunks/Zamas arc is just the lowest of its many lows.

I was already vaguely aware of "Dee-Bee-Zee" and its general premise through most of my childhood. But what little snippets of the show itself I actually saw seemed corny and stupid, which was understandable given that it was early Android-arc chunks of the English dub. Then sometime in th...

I can't process whatever the hell is supposed to be going on here so for the time being I'm just locking the thread.

"AxB" as a formula for Potara Fusion has never been meant to be taken literally, never should be taken literally, and actually can't even be taken literally after you think about it for a few extra seconds.

Judging from what we've been given about Super Saiyan 2 and 3's power boosts in more recent years, and applying that to Goku's fight(s) with Baby... then Super Saiyan 4 being a whopping 40,000x power boost seems fitting. That's with Great Ape's 10-fold boost on top of SS3, and then SS4 being another...

Gine is probably the only part of the modern material's treatment of Bardock that I don't mind, or potentially even like. Given that her name-drop and character description in a Toriyama Q&A comfortably pre-dates her actual first appearance in Minus, I see no reason not to assume she shouldn't r...

I've been essentially done with modern Dragon Ball for like 5 years now. The last thing I indulged in that I actually enjoyed was the DBS Broli movie (after having already given up on both versions of the DBS series) , and even mainly just because it "feels" more like a classic Z outing th...

Well... here's a rather un-subtle hint.

...but wiping out all of them would mean only Granolah would make that connection. Granolah's dead too. It's hard to see unless you zoom in, but there's two barely-distinguishable bodies slumped over by the burning building, and I did make sure to say the " entire native population" was w...

Now presenting entry no.1 in my new "F*ck Super" anti-fanart series, "Merciless." https://i.imgur.com/AeWbhmVm.jpg [Click thumbnail for full-size image] AGE 736: Bardock and his team are dispatched to Planet Cereal, where they successfully eradicate the entire native population a...

Ah right, now that I re-read it, the "he" in question is George Lucas, not Toriyama.

While rewatching the prequels I noticed some similarities between Episode III's ending and the climactic battle on Namek. I'm wondering if he was perhaps influenced or if they just both came up with similar set pieces independently. Um, Star Wars Episode III premiered in 2005, a whole decade after ...

Do you remember the sauce? At the very least there's Raditz's bio in Daizenshuu #7 . I'm pretty sure one or two other sources have restated this same thing, but I can't recall exactly when or where. C'mon, you know what you are doing. If you mean how I make a distinction between "real Bardock&...

Oh for Dende's sake... Substitute whatever other word you want for the purpose of adequately conveying "the true Bardock is a compelling character because he was an irredeemable dirtbag who simply tried to back against the betrayal of an even bigger dirtbag, while the newer alternate portrayal ...

The scheme is then something like this, low class is divided into two groups: Yeah, exactly. "Upper-level" and "lower-level" are effectively two different sub-tiers within the larger "low-class" rank. The ones who are suited for field combat roles and the ones who aren...

In the 2010s AT suggested Bardock was weaker than Raditz by saying the former was a lower class warrior and the latter is a higher class . I think this suggests the bulk of the Freeza Army was quite weak, and so are most Saiyans since Raditz got to be middle class with a flimsly BP of 1500. Monaito...

Finally, somebody speaking some sense!

That downward-pitch slide whistle noise you hear is my interest in this concert dropping like a brick if it now includes music from Super.

There's no way I could remember my literal first ever exposure to the Dragon Ball franchise... my memory's not too great to begin with and I would have been way too young. I was already vaguely aware of "DBZ" through most of my childhood and preteen years before I actually became a fan. Th...
