Re: Why didn't Zamasu account for Zeno?

Like I said, we don't know if a wish to directly harm/overthrow him would work, but a wish to remain beneath his notice probably would have. If he wished that Zeno would never find out about the plan, then perhaps the button just wouldn't work when Goku pressed it. If there is uncertainty in Super ...

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

Also thinking consensual enjoyment of sex and sexual assault are on equal grounds is a huge fucking red flag. It's characteristic of the conservative mindset in America. They base their ideas of morality mostly on Divine Command Theory - God (or whatever other authority they follow/believe in) says...

Only because he hasn't appeared enough to be given a chance to have one yet. GT could have done so much more with him.

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

Not the same, just prone to similarly bad points of extremism. A false equivalence is a false equivalence. And if those posts don't represent what you're saying, then maybe you're just a bad communicator. So I should blame myself for your dishonesty? How very rational and big-brained of you. You di...

Re: Why didn't Zamasu account for Zeno?

Super Shenron is stated to be able to grant "any wish" so unless Zeno is somehow exempt from this, even he should be subject to whatever wish someone makes. Unless of course, I hallucinated that Super Shenron undid the multi-universal erasure(with no complaints that it was beyond it's pow...

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

People tend to conflate Capitalism with Corporatism. It's a real shame in terms of effective communication regarding those subjects. *snip huge rant about capitalism* I know you probably weren't talking to me, but just in case you were, I never said that I love capitalism like some libertarian cult...

Fine then, you win. Capitalism is always evil and communism is the perfect way to go. All communist governments that ever did anything evil were actually right-wing governments in disguise.

Re: Letter from Akira Toriyama to Masami Kurumada

Thank you for sharing it was interesting to read for sure :) Interesting. I heard there's a rivalry between the Dragonball and Saint Seiya fandoms sometimes. In mexico there is. And the reason is quite funny: There are only two television networks one is called TV Azteca which got Saint Seiya and t...

Maybe it's just that drinking a concentrated amount of it at once is dangerous, but spreading it out in a mist over the whole planet is safe, since it's much less concentrated. Yajirobe had a stomach upset after tasting a drop... Yeah but that's still way more concentrated than the amount you would...

Do you blame him? Polyphase Avatron has been ignoring his points for a while now. Especially on communism. To me it seems that Poly is doing the typical liberal thing to do which is ignore what the nuances of the context of the situation and opt a stance that instead of makes the world a better pla...

Why didn't Zamasu account for Zeno?

With all of the time and all of the wishes he was able to make, why didn't he ever consider coming up with any kind of contingency plan for Zeno? Even if he couldn't affect Zeno directly with a wish, he could have at least tried something like 'I wish Zeno will never find out about our plan', or he ...

Re: Shang-Chi film has a DB homage

I've never had any real bad experiences in the theater. Then again, that might be because I usually see movies a few weeks after they're already out, so not many people are there in those showings.

Buu doesn't require a host or someone to absorb in order to live, move, and fight, though.

Revival of F arc
Copy Vegeta arc
Battle of Gods arc
Tournament of Power Recruitment arc
Tournament of Destroyers arc

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

Queer people are not allowed to exist in China. It is absolutely right-wing to regularly commit crimes against humanity. Again, that's too simplistic. Extreme left-wing ideologies can (and have) committed crimes just as heinous than the most extreme right-wing governments. The USSR, Maoist China, a...
