Freeza being killed by someone from the Saiyan's royal bloodline was very fitting, it's such a shame he's back now. I know he's not in the image, but it's something I always liked about his original death. Trunks succeeded where both his father and grandfather failed.

People say that but I really don't get it. It's not like there is a theme at play here. Trunks only killed Freeza because he was in his way. Trunks' purpose was all about the androids, but since the exact moment of his arrival was not as intended, he got to be the one to deal with Freeza.
Unless I'm missing something from the bigger picture, it's not like Trunks has a grudge or anything against Freeza. Gohan and Bulma probably told him about the events of Freeza saga, but still... I don't think that was enough (maybe because it was never shown such conversation, a build up beforehand) for Trunks to get the notion of "I have to kill Freeza with my own hands and avenge the Saiyans and my father he killed!".
Anyway, in short, I don't think Trunks has any connection with Freeza, so him being the one who killed Freeza isn't that "fitting" to me.

I check certain topics from time to time on Kanzenshuu and this is probably 1 of my favorites to check in on. Some of you, Heck, compared to me lol all of you have a God given talent man.
The Dragonboxes are like a middle aged woman who still looks good through simply taking good care of her skin and body with maybe a tiny bit of makeup while the Orange Bricks are like a middle aged woman who get's 50 tons of botox, makeup and plastic surgery in order to look younger and as a result looks even worse. ~ ringworm128 Still recording Toonami broadcasts on VHS after all these years! #1 Paikuhan fan!

This is definitely one of my favorites, as there's so much great art here by very talented people.

It's a great thread, I've had a spread of Goku's evolution from the original manga to GT and Super as my screensaver for months. But isn't like 96% of the art originally made by other people from off-site? I don't think too many people post their own work. Still love seeing it either way.
I've made some DB fanart myself but it's pretty primitive compared to the calibre I've seen here, just sketches. Maybe one day...

Yeah, nah..I couldn't tell ya who drew this or that. I rarely check stuff anymore haha but it's definitely incredible. I been trying my hand at drawing and stuff but man, it just really speaks to some people better than others. guess I was just meant for guitar lol
