Re: How would the Dragon Ball fandom react if Jiren were made into a gay man?

Did it? In OG and DBZ Roshi actually groped people full on, more than once. He asked to see a 16 year olds underwear and then tried to spy on her while she had a pee. By DBZ that's all his character was. At least in Super they made him a fighter again. What's this rapist bit about? I remember he we...

Isn't the age of consent in Japan 13?

Re: How would the Dragon Ball fandom react if Jiren were made into a gay man?

I definitely disagree with Dragon Ball being misogynistic or homophobic. It just came from a different time when people actually had a sense of humor.

Unless it straight up bashes women and gays then it could never be.

Re: How would the Dragon Ball fandom react if Jiren were made into a gay man?

It's a 80's franchise, such problems would be down to the time it was produced and so wasn't considered a problem back then. Unless you can provide some examples I don't recall Super having such issues outside of Roshi's continued perviness which has been a long running gag of his from the start. S...

Re: "Dragon Ball FighterZ" Official Discussion Thread

I can see a lot of people complaining when FighterZ 2 starts with 16/20 characters. A sequel won't continue the roster, it will reinvent the game. Even characters bound to return won't be the same since mechanics will be modified, removed or added. The newcomers will probably be something from the ...

Re: "Dragon Ball FighterZ" Official Discussion Thread

The only other anime I see getting the FighterZ treatment are Naruto and One Piece. Their popularity rivals that of Dragon Ball's and they have tons of characters they can work with. But even then, I don't see it happening before a sequel for this game. FighterZ is just too successful for Bamco to j...

Re: "Dragon Ball FighterZ" Official Discussion Thread

Often times, when it comes to fighting game sequels for something like Dragon Ball, a large part of the hook is all the additional content that the game is supposed to have when compared to its predecessor, particularly seeing what new characters they include. What new things would an FZ2 have that...

Re: "Dragon Ball FighterZ" Official Discussion Thread

I don’t see what hook a sequel could realistically have. The very fact it expands on the foundation of DBFZ is the hook. Dunno why you ask these questions.

If you think it's normal for women to act like horny animals then I'd say you're the sexist one.

Re: How would the Dragon Ball fandom react if Jiren were made into a gay man?

But nothing says they're wrong. Except Blue got offended when they called him gay. A true gay man wouldn't get offended. 1. I am struggling to figure why Bulma trying to cheat on her then boyfriend is relevant to this discussion? Nobody was claiming Bulma was a woman of virtue. What does that have ...

Re: How would the Dragon Ball fandom react if Jiren were made into a gay man?

Why is it like nobody listening to me? Just because Krillin and Bulma say something doesn't make it factual. They're not the best judges of character definitely not at that era of the series. The joke is that they think General Blue is gay but he's really a narcissist thus hates slobbering and crass...

We're queer, not stupid. We know how to read between the lines when we're being mocked.
I get what you're saying but to me, Blue seemed more like a narcissistic than a gay man in the manga.

Re: How would the Dragon Ball fandom react if Jiren were made into a gay man?

Idk probably something to do with the pedophile scene or the general portrayal of being a sissy who gets afraid of a mouse and Bulma acting sexy (because she's a woman and not because she's minor) That might be why people don't like Blue's portrayal as a gay man in Dragon Ball idk To be fair, there...

Re: How would the Dragon Ball fandom react if Jiren were made into a gay man?

I don't get why people use General Blue as an example for how bad gay people are treated in Dragon Ball, when he was one of the strongest members of the RR and actualy won against Goku and Krillin, even krillin said that he was strong and Blue only lost because of Goku's plot armor (or the Cereal D...

Re: For a fairly popular character, Future Trunks really doesn't have much

Future Trunks one of the most well-developed characters in the franchise. It's hard to do things with him at hasn't already been done.
