Real nice representation there, Toriyama...

Hey now. Dickheaded gay dudes with toxic views is pretty realistic!

and threw herself at General Blue (who was disgusted by her easiness). Wasn't General blue a plain misogynist who viewed girls as disgusting? I think what Toriyama was going is the 'gay man repulsed by women' stereotype. But taken as a character Blue is absolutely the kinda misogynistic gay dude wh...

The planet was already fucked. Might as well go for broke. Besides, it's just Earth. Not like there's anything of value there except for the three survivors anyway.

Vegeta by a solid mile now-a-days. Which is weird because 15 odd years ago I hated the Vegebul fandom with every sinew on my laughably weak frame. But going over the series, while Vegeta may be a pigheaded ape, he's also the only character who makes things happen. There's a sort of momentum the stor...

Vados and Krillin's ex, Marron. I don't care what it means for the story but I absolutely need to see how the fandom reacts. Especially those fans who like to kill off ChiChi so they can better ship GokuxVados. The Fanart and Sexy Fanart threads will go through a dark age(or renaissance depending on...

Do you actually like Dragon Ball??? Yes? I'm pretty sure I do. Been following the series long enough. Chi-Chi has no character besides Goku's wife and Gohan's overprotective mother. She was never an important part of the show. Shit, you could've put Suno in Chi-Chi's role in the 23rd Tournament and...

That is true, and there's many more examples where that comes from. Yajirobe didn't do any fighting after killing Cymbal, but he was still basically the deuteragonist for much of the Piccolo Daimao arc. And integral to the Vegeta fight in spite of being outmatched by everyone there. Which is someth...

"It's a comic for boys, therefore the writing for the women has to suck and re-enforce negative societal expectations of women" is really dumb when you consider: 1. The cis boys reading these comics need to see women as more than just their nagging mothers or helpless girls who need to be...

I'm a woman who has literally had her account on this forum for a shounen comic for more than half of her life. I KNOW the issues at hand, I'm going to continue to argue that they're bullshit excuses. The children who read and watch shounen need proper treatment for women in their stories, too. It'...

Caulifla, Kale and Kefla are Saiyans who are super strong. They gained Super Saiyan 1, Super Saiyan 2 and Legendary Super Saiyan in a short time span, even though they didn't know those transformations existed. Lets not forget that Universe 7 has female Saiyans now since there Pan and Bra. Right no...

Dragon Ball is the most arbitrary thing ever. Saiyans are arbitrary strong, so why not make Videl arbitrarily strong? Say she never stopped training and that it's Gohan's turn to watch Pan. Fam, just because something is arbitrary does not mean it cannot be consistent or logical. And just because c...

I don't really think Videl's blandness comes from any desire to avoid past "mistakes." Gohan is meant to be the normal guy of the group, the guy with a normal job and a normal family. That meant the over the top comedic personalities of the other 'housewives' were a no go for Videl. And in...

When Goku returned as the main character there really wasn't anything you could do with Videl. Xenoverse treating her as Gohan's hanger on that doesn't get just how huge the power gap is is about as close to a worthwhile combat role as she was ever gonna get.

Vegeta cheers for the Washington Baseball Team to stick it to cancel culture but actually hates the sport. not to be rude but i think you have your wires crossed a little, the nationals don't really have name controversy (besides expos fans maybe), it's the Cleveland Indians who do. Washington Foot...

As an ex-mets fan, that is kind of relatable

I think that's most Mets fans. Either you have a strong family association with the team or you immigrated to New York back in '86.

In keeping with his perpetual loser energy Krillin would cheer for the Cubs. Vegeta cheers for the Washington Baseball Team to stick it to cancel culture but actually hates the sport. Gohan doesn't root for an individual team but has very strong opinions about the DH and how it ruins the strategy be...

That Super Saiyan tangent really put into perspective how quickly the Super Saiyan transformation loss its importance. Escalation worked fine when power was aquired through training or weird magic stuff. But when power became linked to transformations, to keep up with his old pace, Toriyama had to i...

Call me vanilla but I think I'd prefer if the women in my life were more even tempered, less prone to violent outbursts, and unlikely to ever shoot a 12 year old square in the dome.

So my vote is for Bulma's mom. Not only is she calm and aloof, she probably also makes an amazing Pimm's Cup.

Why shouldn't he be brought up when talking about Krillin's eventual outlook on sex and relationships? Sex i...
