Re: LGBT in DragonBall
1. Stereotypes are not a form of Comedy. Stereotypes are used to con people who don't know any better into believing that all members of a group behave the same way. THEY ABSOLUTELY FUNCTION OUTSIDE OF THE TRUTH. THAT IS WHAT THEY ARE DESIGNED TO DO I don't believe you know what a stereotype is, co...

Re: LGBT in DragonBall
STEREOTYPES DO NOT REFLECT REALITY! You figure they come out of thin air, then? Stereotypes don't function in absence of truth, otherwise, they cease to be useful or funny or whatever, and they're abandoned. You don't have to like it, and it doesn't have to reflect everyone (a claim that you pulled...

Artificial tension, just annoying fluff, though the anime does this so much more that I can't even care tbh.Sandubadear wrote:=Though I don't understand why Toyo added the "we can't go back to that TL again!" and then simply made Pilaf fix that.

Re: LGBT in DragonBall
There are gay characters in Dragon Ball in the form of General Blue and Otokosuki. Are they positive stereotypes? No Hang on there. Are they negative stereotypes, or are they just funny? In modern times, a ton of gay people are intentionally, obnoxiously flamboyant. Why is making fun of that a bad ...

Re: LGBT in DragonBall
What do you guys think? Do we need LGBT representation in DragonBall? I think the idea that we should insert alternative identities sexualities into everything is ridiculous, and obnoxious, and increasingly prevalent because of the, excuse my bluntness, retarded victim culture the west gleefully ta...

Re: Who, to you, are the main villains of Dragonball?
I'm aware that there is no Main Villain. That's why the title is main Villain"S" That doesn't have anything to do with my point. As for your first point: Do tournament foes count as main villains? Do characters who turn good later count as Main Villains Is Ginyu a Main villain or is his a...

Re: Who, to you, are the main villains of Dragonball?
Firstly, you can't add "to you" to this question, it doesn't make any sense. It's like asking "What color is orange to you ?". Nitpicking aside, there is no main villain in Dragon Ball. You can't have a main villain in a series where villains are always dropped after their respec...

Re: Color Correcting the Dragon Box - 3 Part Spectacular
Kai is the closest in terms of color accuracy but there are still cases where it's a bit off. The sky color in the Goku vs Vegeta fight being too green is a good example . The quality and consistency of Kai's color correction also varies between the Saiyan, Freeza, and Cell arcs. Pretty common misc...

Re: Color Correcting the Dragon Box - 3 Part Spectacular
The colours were probably good at one point, but Funi's oversaturation and other filters basically ruined it. It's like if someone scanned the Mona Lisa digitally, did a really nice restoration of it, then saved it as a JPEG at minimum quality. Even so, you can see what the palette ideally should'v...

Re: Non-thread-worthy discussions
If Toei were to completely re-animate the second half of the Manga aka Z, being as faithful as possible, how many episodes do you guys think there should realistically be? I only ask because I assume it'll be way shorter than the Kai we got and got me thinking what if they wanted to get the most of...

Re: Color Correcting the Dragon Box - 3 Part Spectacular
The Blu Ray discs largest problem is grain removal. Where FUNI's copy has lots of it, the episode quality seems to suffer... othertimes the quality is fine. The Buu saga seems to be on the better side of the series in this regard. You still have the letterboxing, no original title cards and few oth...

Do we even know how strong Broly is? Didn't they always use cheat codes to beat him in the movies?

Re: "Dragon Ball Super (Manga)" Official Discussion Thread
What does this have to do with the manga? The ToP might not even start here for a few more months. I'm just saying the manga will probably will commit the same mistake as the anime Ah. Maybe so, but I wouldn't put money on it. Look at the Future Trunks Arc, I re-read the entire thing yesterday, and...

Re: Super after 100 episodes
If all you have to watch is two episodes, that's literally not much more than 40 minutes of your time. If you don't have 40 minutes of time just to get to 100, I don't know what to say. No, I literally don't have 40 more minutes of my life that I'm willing to dedicate to Dragon Ball Super . I can g...

Re: Super after 100 episodes
Lol I feel silly that I decided to quit after 98, of all times. I kind of want to go to 100 just to make it even, and so I can say that, irrefutably, I gave Super a go. Not going to, because I can't even, or rather, I have no desire to watch another minute of that godforsaken show after my disappoin...

Re: Conceiving a child while using fusion
We sure are looking at the boring side of the coin here, aren't we? What about women? If a fused being conceives a child, then splits in two, what happens to the fetus. Does it create two copies, does it tear the poor thing apart? Perhaps it works as a fission, where two dominant parts of the person...
