Topic: Scouter Color=Rank?
Replies: 16

I do think the scouter color could have had something to do with rank. The only part about it that confuses me is why would Bardock and Raditz be in the same level as the Ginyu force? I thought their strength went like this: -Ginyu Force -Nappa -Raditz and Bardock That was my thought too! :o Althou...

In the fantasy/sci-fi world of DB, I would have to say that someone just found a way to measure it. Just like we have developed instruments to help us put numbers to a heart beat or weight, Toriyama has "said" that in the world of DB they have found a way to use a device to translate ki in...

Thanks Slickmasterfunk, keep us posted as well. Sure, but there is one teensy little problem. According to the tracking number, my copy from the Z Store was delivered. Problem is I had it shipped to my address at school and right now I'm at home. I'll try to get it when I go back on Wednesday for a...

I liked GT, so it really wouldn't bother me either way. We'd just have a longer DBZ anime. If they did this they could exclude the Bebi and Super 17 sagas altogether, and do what was done with Yi Xinglong and SSJ4 in Budokai 3's Dragon Universe Mode. :P Ditto to that Chaos. As for the question, I d...

It was quite good. It was funny, but it also had the informative quality that the first three had. Not to say that the forth one wasn't good, but it was different in that it reflected more on Scott and his view's on DB and didn't dive into DB and analyze it as much. Great episode and I'm looking for...

I suppose one suggestion could be that Goku still didn't really know how old he was. Maybe he really was thirty years old and he just didn't know or realize it, yet. After all, he admitted not knowing how to count. But I also think the suggestion that Freeza didn't really record exactly when he exte...

From what I have read, the French Daizenshuu were translations of the original Japanese ones. If it wasn't in those then, chances are, it probably isn't in the French version either. I hope that helps a little. Here's the link where I got that information. It's the only site I've found that even men...

Falling into Hell means who have to find your way back to Serpent Road and you can't fly back up there.

Snake Way and why Hell?

Sorry if this is a dumb question, but I'm wondering if anyone knows if it is explained why it is such a big deal to fall off snake way? I know that they say to Goku that he shouldn't, but I'm just wondering if I missed something because it seems really harsh for it to be that way. And could that mea...

I like the Garlic Jr. arc. It proved that the world wasn't in any less danger without Goku long before Goku made the conclusion that it was. I also have a special attachment to the filler mentioned previously with the conclusion of the Cell arc. It was a tribute to their past in my opinion. Each one...

I have to say, Toriyama's style is definately unique visually. I see a lot of styles that just seem derivitive. With Toriyama, you can always tell what's him and what isn't. The reason I got so hooked on DB is because it stands out amoungst others in terms of it's look. It's just different and in a ...

I shed some tears during the Freeza v Goku fight after he turned SSJ.

And later you can see him doubting hims...

I prefer Coola because you can set him up to come back as meta-coola without losing any of his fire power. You can put his transformation, his long-range beam attack, his ultimate attack and then Coola's spaceship. Not only can you kick ass, but if you get whooped, you can come back even stronger an...

Scott was absolutely hilarious in that episode. I don't know him but I know his music videos. It was neat that he was so modest about them.
