Re: Why haven't we seen female Namekians?
Piccolo was indeed both a demon and an alien, even if Toriyama didn’t initially plan for him to be the latter. I’m not entirely sure what exactly earns someone the status of a demon in the Dragon Ball world , but there’s never been anything to suggest that a character has to be from Earth to be one...

Re: Why dropping Gohan as the main protagonist was a bad move
Some may call this cliché but it seemed like natural progression to me. Goku's character arc was done by the Cell arc. I don’t see how it’s “natural” to completely eliminate the protagonist and the face of the whole series nor do I see a reason to “pass the torch” to someone who isn’t passionate ab...

Re: Future Trunks’ Swordsmanship Skills and Techniques
He seemed really proficient. Wish he got to use it more. The franchise needs more weapon-based fighters. How? At best he knew how to cut where he wanted to cut. And he was able to cut through Freeza. Unsure if was his own strength or the sharpness of the sword. He wasn't able to cut through the Gok...

Re: HD collection for PS4 and PS5
Extra functioanlity is extra work and extra costs. Then all those things need to be tested. Even more extra work and extra money. Then you have to ask: How many units will this sell, when there much, much, newer looking and very similar playing products out there? You're best hope if for someone to...

Re: HD collection for PS4 and PS5
Do you think could be possible to release a remastered Budokai Tenkaichi 3 but with new things like multiplayer online and the new characters and transformations from Super/Heroes/Legends/etc ? Even they could earn some extra money if they use the DLC way to introduce some updates for the game base...

Re: Are these four main women in Dragon Ball really "just house wives"?
Women are not represented equally to men in Dragon Ball. Not in the slightest. Not until we see some old lady peeking and nose bleeding Vegeta using the bathroom unawares. Is the old lady allowed to get decked for doing so? No. The woman is suppose to be invincible to all male offense. So, you're b...

Re: Would Goku be less enthusiastic about fighting stronger people if he was not able to keep up?
If the story had Goku face someone he couldn't out muscle, maybe it would have went the route of out smarting. Or even developing actual techniques to get the job done defferently.

Re: Are these four main women in Dragon Ball really "just house wives"?
Out of the four women, Bulma is clearly the more wellrounded one. She is not a house wife. She has active parts in almost every story arc. Even while caring for a small baby. Chi-chi just seems like that's the sort of life she was aiming for. We don't know that much about 18. Videl was a teenage gir...

Don't fighting games also translate hand related attacks from "-ken" to hand, and feet related ones from "kyaku" to kick?

Re: Isn’t It In Toei’s/Funimation’s Legal Right to Use The Original Broadcast Audio on Future Releases?
It's TOEI's anime, I'm sure they would be free to use the broadcast audio in any sort of release without fear of legal ramifications. That said I think the fact TOEI threw out the original audio masters to begin with shows how little they care for it. Dragon Ball to TOEI is merely a show they adapt...

Re: Does anyone know who wrote the horrible ending in the goku black arc?
f Freeza had gotten his wish, could he over power the Super Saiyan, though? Of course. Not only he would never get tired/exhausted (Future Zamasu/Fused Zamasu are never shown being fatigued, tired, exhausted), but he would also regenerate any damage taken. Remember when he got cut in half by his ow...

Re: Would Goku be less enthusiastic about fighting stronger people if he was not able to keep up?
Like someone else said, he'd be like Tien. Tien knows his current limit and has continued existing by not taking on more than he can handle. And when he does, it's more of a try or die situation. Goku lucked out. This version of his story is the one where he keeps being able to put victories out of ...

Re: did Yamamoto's plagiarism contribute to the dbz = rock music mentality?
Has Yamamoto ever made any comments regarding what happened? With other acts, like Vanilla Ice, I can get how they may not have thought it was plagerizing. Or may have sub consciencely been doing it. Isn't there a Camila Canbena song that got sued, and the group was somewhat obscure. Some one may ha...

Re: Would you enjoy a midquel?
Problem with a mid-quel and Dragonball, is that we know what's right around the corner when it comes to threats. And we know what down the path as well. It would have to be written so well that whatever happens is so inconsequential as to wonder why even bother, and no so out there that our brains s...

Re: Does anyone know who wrote the horrible ending in the goku black arc?
He'd be there for eternity like every other soul in the Multiverse, it doesn't really mean much. If he got his wish of immortality, he wouldn't have been there in the first place. The Namek arc is about stopping Frieza from getting his wish, because if he gets the wish of immortality, nobody can de...

Re: Does anyone know who wrote the horrible ending in the goku black arc?
The thing about Zamasu as a villain is that he is written to be unbeatable. He genuinely believes that he is doing the right, he is truly convinced of being the hero of his own story, so he can't be reasoned with like Piccolo, Vegeta, and the Androids. And he is Immortal, which means that he cannot...

Re: If Freeza were a female would he still be a hit as a villain?
Isn't this a series where the protag had so little contact with people, he could not tell male from female. Sounding male or sounding female is completely based off your own life experience. Plenty of people out there get mis-gender based solely off their voice. But, no one's going to hear "qua...
