Re: Vegeta spents most of the time being a douchebag in the orginal manga,does a 180 and never suffers for his crimes
No, he really doesn't. However, and I feel like I've bringing this up again and again lately, DB never bothers itself with these sort of moral conundrums. Whenever I read an interview of Toriyama's and he says something like" the DB main cast are mostly bad people than seem like good people&quo...

Re: "Dragon Ball Super (Manga)" Official Discussion Thread
Okay, I'm going to be honest here. The emotional beat ...kinda worked for me. I was not invested in Meerus at all, but his send off was, IMO, pretty well handled. And Goku's reaction is appropriate. I've missed seeing him get emotional so I'm a little stumped when I see people complain that this is...

Re: Does anyone else feel that much of the DB fandom enforces low standards?
The same goes for the manga, whenever Toyotaro gets criticized, you're slapped with "Toriyama approved, it's Toriyama's story, the Dragon Ball room supervised, etc." so you shouldn't criticize, cuz the higher ups think it's ok, so it is ok. I think the "Toriyama approved" reply ...

Re: "Dragon Ball Super (Manga)" Official Discussion Thread
So, I just read the chapter. I'd already seen the spoilers so I knew what to expect. The chapter was actually pretty good IMO. This is the sort of team up I've been wanting to see more of, even if ends up in disaster as usual. I've felt like the Piccolo/Goku/Gohan combination there was neat. Also, I...

Re: Possibility of Piccolo becoming relevant again (pfffffttt)...
I'm not so sure about that. I just checked the manga's chapter where he demands to know how Piccolo got so strong and his reaction to the answer is just of disbelief, no comment about ancient times or anything about Kami's background. Sounds more like something that dub everybody always complains a...

Re: Possibility of Piccolo becoming relevant again (pfffffttt)...
Its a bit surprising Vegeta even knew about the Nail fusion. Vegeta was preoccupied with fighting Freeza at the time, and its not like they speak at all. And yeah, perhaps Vegeta didn't know Kami and Piccolo were once one of the same when he said those lines in the recent manga chapter. Actually he...

Re: Possibility of Piccolo becoming relevant again (pfffffttt)...
I get splitting Piccolo and Nail because they are different people, but could Piccolo and Kami be split again by Vegeta? he claimed that he could, but I believe not. To be fair, they are the same person, the weird thing was for them to be apart. But since they became one again, to think Vegeta can ...

Re: Possibility of Piccolo becoming relevant again (pfffffttt)...
I will keep dreaming this dream. This hilltop is mine! For those who think this would knock Piccolo down several power levels when he can barely keep up as it is, yes, you are right, but I'm willing to see that happen if it results in a training arc. Loosing Nail or Kami might bring back his role a...

Re: "Dragon Ball Super (Manga)" Official Discussion Thread
I'm a little more on the fence about that line. Vegeta boasting in that specific way was pretty regressive. Yes, Goku and Piccolo not caring when Vegeta is tooting his own horn is in character of them, but the problem was that Vegeta wasn't supposed to be someone that still does that so blatantly, ...

Re: "Dragon Ball Super (Manga)" Official Discussion Thread
But his " ! " reaction did make me wonder if we're supposed to think that he at was at least considering it. If we think about, Piccolo himself was never really thrilled with fusion either, he was just more practical than the saiyans. Maybe the "!" was Nail considering that he n...

Not sure if anyone else has cited this yet but does Vegeta's remark to Piccolo about having the power to forcibly remove his fusion partners irk anyone else? I know it was intended to be a tongue in cheek jab to help reinforce the quality of this new technique but it still kind of drives home the r...

Re: "Dragon Ball Super (Manga)" Official Discussion Thread
Would like to clear up something I've seen on twitter before it gets here (or it might've gotten here already; I've not read every post). Vegeta has only ever misjudged one character's strength. 1. He was stronger than everyone during the Saiyan arc. It was sneak attacks and combinations he could'v...

Re: "Dragon Ball Super (Manga)" Official Discussion Thread
Don't get how the Namekians were preserved by the Dragon Balls. I'd prefer if the Namekians were able to retain their bodies due to their unique biology, like a dried out snail that rehydrates . This would've been a better explanation than what happened. It's not hard to justify plot, so just going...

Re: "Dragon Ball Super (Manga)" Official Discussion Thread
He had his father's soul, therefore all his sins. Piccolo even said he was King Piccolo. We he IS King Piccolo as in he takes the title and the name. But his sins? Nah, then whats the point of reincarnation? That is only if your soul is cleansed, which Piccolo skipped. Otherwise, you're just a devi...

Re: "Dragon Ball Super (Manga)" Official Discussion Thread
I do agree with that. I'm just saying that he could still be bound for hell or he will be reborn again like Kid Buu depending on how Yemma feels. Then again, Piccolo didn't go to hell, so *shrugged* Piccolo Jr didn't didn't really get around to committing any world ending crimes, just attempted to....

Re: "Dragon Ball Super (Manga)" Official Discussion Thread
Vegeta only kept his body upon death because he was too useful in the in the fight against Buu, and even Goku thought he got wiped out in hell. Also, the Namekian dragon isn't Yemma. We don't know how he will be judged upon death again. Vegeta at the very least is a morally good person. Saying he's...

Random and scattered thoughts on Chapter 61: - Vegeta (to Goku): "We underwent the same training but I'm more talented than you." A certain white haired transformation would disagree with that sentiment. And as if Super needed to shit even more on the "You're number one!" speech...

The panel where Piccolo states Vegeta has never been one to misread an opponent's strength...What is Piccolo talking about? ...that's what Vegeta's done exclusively to anyone who isn't Beerus throughout the entire series. It's almost his most defining trait. Not true, Piccolo is actually right. It'...
