Re: Vegeta the most evil?

Daimao is Kami's evil given physical form, whereas the Piccolo we know and love is his son who was given his knowledge and power, but is his own person. To me, Freeza is the most evil because unlike Daimao, Cell, or Buu, he made the conscious decision to be who he was. Daimao, Cell and Buu all chos...

Re: Vegeta the most evil?

Freeza, Cell and Buu called, they said bitch please. Freeza is basically a Slaaneshi in all but name (and if Funi somehow got Malcolm McDowell to play him in season 3, I'm imagining something out of Caligula and Clockwork Orange being his dub lines :o ) Cell is like something out of H.R Giger's nigh...

Re: Did FUNImation irrepairably cripple the fandom in the US

I'd blame Saban more, considering that they were the ones who imposed such changes on Funimation. The Saban produced dub was the one that became a hit, and Funi had to go along with the precedents set because they weren't in a position to do much else.

Re: Favorite Faulconer track?

I think the "super buu" theme sounds more like "Phantom of the opera" than "Marmalade"

Dragonball as horror

Around the time the Freeza saga started, Dragonball began to have elements of horror (Freeza's transformations and the power at their disposal), but that largely remained an undercurrent until the Cell Saga (when you had an abomination of life devouring everything around it to become stronger like a...

Re: Times when a Dub > Original

goku's "Birthright" speech to vegeta. Basically took all of Vegeta's whinging about "Saiyan Pride" and turned it against him.

Re: Freeza and his men all have stereotypically "gay" traits

You might be reading too much into it. At most they're effete upperclass aristocrats that sit around admiring how great they are. Not necessarily feminine, but broadly flamboyant as the result of narcissism. I get the feeling that Freeza and his men never really had to work at being powerful, many ...

Re: Fic Idea: Trial of Vegeta

Basically, pretend you're writing a Phoenix Wright story and replace all the character names. That'd work for a rough draft, anyway. The problem is, doing a trial in the Other World, especially if there's no idea on how the legal system works in DB. Although I can easily see Freeza, Nappa and Cell ...

I can easily see Freeza, Nappa and Cell as witnesses for the prosecution, which could be interesting, if handled well.

Re: Fic Idea: Trial of Vegeta

it would need someone with a legal background to properly write. Eh...that part, I dunno about. It would still need to feel more like Dragon Ball than a John Grisham novel, IMO, and who's to say that the courts of the netherworld would work exactly the same way as any Earth court system, outside of...

Fic Idea: Trial of Vegeta

When Vegeta dies post-Z, Enma is unsure of where to put him, so a trial is convened, with the fate of the last Saiyan's soul at stake.
