Re: Complete list of plotholes/continuity issues in the movi

Breaking news: most of the movies don't gel with the series. Do we really need a whole list? I'd imagine most of us know how/why they don't fit. It's not even "plot holes" per se, since they very obviously aren't supposed to jive with the manga/anime.

Re: What are your wishes for the next Dragon Ball Z Film?

I'd like it to be set either just before the final Budōkai and/or after the end. Don't really "wish" for anything plot-wise, I'd just like to see more of that tantalisingly-glimpsed untapped era of the characters' lives. I feel like that's kind of what the new movies have been building tow...

Re: Is RoF Freeza still Freeza?

It wasn't ever mentioned how long it takes for them to be reborn and Kid Buu was a special case which might also have been much faster than usual to please Goku. Actually, Toriyama recently stated that the more evil someone is, the easier it is for him to be purified. Which would explain why Boo wa...

Re: Have side characters been rendered useless?

Replace "side characters" with "everyone not named Goku or Vegeta" in the thread title and you have a more accurate summation. I've never known a series with such a rich, diverse and colourful cast of characters to marginalise them so badly.

Re: Quality of Discussion on Kanzenshuu Going Downhill?

Posting style aside, a major issue is the lack of structure within the thread. There are just too many conversations happening at one time; it is impossible to keep things coherent when everyone is talking about a million different things. I know the staff were opposed to the idea, but I think a ge...

Re: What if the entire anime had Final Bout's dub?

Steve Blum as Goku? I can dig it. Most of the ENG voices in Final Bout are actually quite good and fit the characters well (better than the pre- Kai Funi voices do), the only problem is they're obviously just in the booth for 10 minutes to pick up a quick cheque. It's a crappy imported PS1 fighting ...

I can respect him wanting to be a scholar. But Even THAT he manages to do badly. Since when? Based on all the information we have on that period of time, Gohan is never presented as doing "badly" at being a scholar. He has a sweet home of his own. He is by all accounts pretty successful i...
