Kanzenshuu

I remember watching Goku vs. Freeza on Dragon Ball Z Kai and finding the battle a lot more exhilarating compared to how Lance made it out to be. I feel that this is an inherent advantage that the Anime has over the Manga. We see the fighting in motion and hear the hits along with the battle cries. W...

But yeah, a lot of Idiot balls to pass around this arc. Honestly, the lines honestly blur at times in regards to Vegeta considering how he's not exactly a "good guy" now or that "bad" either. In regards to Bulma... why was she there? I mean, what did the story really need her fo...

It's honestly what Nux Taku refers to as "Brockatosis" where you gotta have the secondary characters contribute something, really ANYTHING, to the battle they're standing by from and just... point out the blithering obvious or over-analyze the smallest shit to make it sound cooler. Often t...

I find the retcon with 20 and 19 weird here because, well, everybody watched the Anime which made it more vague enough to work and few care about how the original botched that one up. Yet you drive the point home here.

Let's also not forget how FUNimation's version of Cell returning changed his brain needing to be intact for regeneration to needing even the smallest of cell of him to grow back from. I'm actually disappointed that they didn't reuse that dialogue for Kai because it solves quite the plothole.

History of Trunks has a grandpa comfort his granddaughter by saying, "It's just like watching fireworks, dear," as the Androids blow them up. Way to twist the knife, FUNimation. Later, Bulma's completing the time machine and has a little nostalgic speech of her father, Dr. Brief, when tal...

Funimation's modern dubs have a tendency to add flowery dialogue. I feel like it usually doesn't fit unless it's characters like Freeza or, in this case, Zamasu. Vegeta works considering he's a warrior prince who can sound gruff but knows how to speak dignified when emphasizing this. The vocabulary...

. Drawing attention to the plot hole of everyone speaking English/Japanese doesn't make the problem go away. . That’s not really a plot hole....just a necessary convenience of the genre. The next dimension lines were always interesting to me sometimes the show was basically treating it like death a...

In Kai Japanese, when Yajirobe asks Roshi why Goku is so excited to go to Namek and fight these terrifyingly strong guys, Roshi responds: "Of course he wants to save everyone, but it looks like he gets greater joy from fighting strong people above all else." In the dub it's: "I mean ...

Not so much awesome or awful but interesting. I remember watching a few dub clips of Trunk's debut where he looks at his GPS watch and the dialogue has him claim that it still works with the original satelite and thanks his Grandpa, Dr. Brief not mentioned by name. I dunno why but I found that an in...

Watching Dragon Ball Dissection made me realize that when the Anime isn't stretching out Manga content with looooooooooooooooong panning shots that linger more than they should, they actually do add some stories that enhance the narrative like Gohan's six months in the wild or additions to the Manga...

After peaking on Launch, Oolong becomes a goldfish... to no avail.

Young Muten Roshi.

Dragon Ball Evolution had another casting in mind. For once, they made the right choice.

With how you go onto major tangents seperate from the main plotlines, I'm genuinely hoping you got yourself a diatribe regarding Goku vs Piccolo in fatherhood and the perceptions the fandom has of Gohan's upbringing. Like I know you're eager to let it out.

Let's give this thread a good Senzu.

Another fantastic dissection video. :thumbup: I get the feeling Cell Saga is gonna get the 1 spot with the sheer amount of plot-induced stupidity the characters exhibit. Somebody's forgotten the Buu Saga. Like forget OOC moments, the way the story bounces from Gohan's school life to a tourney to a ...
