My point was actually that this might've been simply chosen not to be documented.
As for fan's reaction I don't think he was talking about actually airing the episode, just that they tested it and Toriyama didn't like it.

Re: Are you sick of Goku?
Fuck lol. This topic beat me to it. I’ve been meaning to ask this but in the opposite way. Basically, I don’t get why OP’s is such a popular opinion lately. Honestly I'm amazed, cause I would think people would be greatful for some focus on the MC. I mean leaving aside that the main character gettin...

Re: Schemmel says that Nozawa told him they wanted to replace her for the role of adult Goku
I'm not saying he's lying or Nozawa is lying but is it possible Schemmel is just misremembering or misunderstanding a prior conversation he had with her? At least, he didn't exaggerate the replacement story like Mario Castañeda (for those who doesn't know, Mario is Goku's Latin American Spanish Voi...

Re: Schemmel says that Nozawa told him they wanted to replace her for the role of adult Goku
Wow. I had the idea she stayed because of personal reasons, them knowing how she works and having bonded obviously, along with the fact that she had a status with fans already. But if she reauditioned it means they at least considered actually evolving the voice to suit an adult male, so this makes ...

Re: Why is Toei so obsessed in making Goku dumb in DBS and DBS movies
No matter the reason, it just cringe no matter what. A scene written this poorly featuring characters this iconic and old. I still hold to my guess that they are keen on soft rebooting Goku in some respects to appeal more to the younger audience. Younger audience = ignorant protagonist. But honestl...

Re: Why is Toei so obsessed in making Goku dumb in DBS and DBS movies
Comedy doesn't work when the comedy is just retcons and contradictions. Does this situation count as a "Tori forgot" or "Tori don't care"? It’s both, I’m so glad people are finally coming around to Toriyama being fallible as a writer. That’s not to say he hasn’t done great work,...

Design-wise what jumped at me more is they made her shorter. It was cooler when she was the same height as Vegeta.

Re: Why is Toei so obsessed in making Goku dumb in DBS and DBS movies
The amount of people who enjoy Goku's comical dumbness far outweighs those that don't. It's just the reality. No one's dumber than Goku, no cares less than Goku, but no one's more correct than Goku in the end. First like I said, comedy isn’t excuse to shit on basic things that make the characters w...

Re: I just watched the ending of GT (Japanese version) and it was one of the most depressing things I’ve ever seen
Considering GT doesn't altogether fit DB's aesthetic, an ending that doesn't fit Toriyama's world, but fits GT works fine. We've already got the whole "the story may continue" ending with the manga, so a more conclusive ending works here. It's sad but in the same way any ending is sad. Ev...

Re: Why is Toei so obsessed in making Goku dumb in DBS and DBS movies
I also think fans tend to overblow it. The context of the scene is that they’ve come to Beerus’ planet for training, and Vegeta has just been sitting around during that time, while Goku is looking to practice. It’s not really egregious to have him be frustrated by it. The line where he comes down o...

Re: The Arabic version of DBS is putting extra clothes on female characters
Yes, this is kind of censorship is standard in every production that Studio Venus (the entity in question that dubs Dragon Ball, among many other popular anime such as My Hero Academia, Digimon, Hunter x Hunter) localizes. The company is based out of Syria, and is notorious for editing anime in way...

Well luckily I'm not responding to any-old-person, I'm responding to OP! They explicitly stated they found it to be really depressing, and that they wished it ended in a more 'the story of Goku continues' fashion (similar to Super). Based on your other posts here I'm not too intersted in a super lo...

Dude, he's not saying that doesn't think Gine lied, he's saying he doesn't understand why she would lie. He's essentially saying that the character's actions don't make sense, not that they didn't actually happen. That's why I said you need to read people's posts more clearly. Nearly every argument...

I mean if Goku was dead say he's dead, if he's alive then explain where did he go and why did he say goodbye to his friends, because it was implied that Goku left forever, so if he was alive why did he leave his family and friends forever? and again, where did he go? I think it was pretty straightf...

Not even saying that as a dismissive/pricky thing, but really, there's tons of great movies/television/art out there, and it's okay to watch things and feel a little sad. Art can touch us in many ways, it's good to engage with those feels every now and then! I’d say people who didn’t connect with G...
