Re: Fanmanga - DB Multiverse
This talk about "sexualised mid-driff" is why women are made to dress in full veils in some parts of the world.
You puritans really need to get a grip
As for the last page it made me think of "Sharkeesha NO!" which made me lol.

Re: Fanmanga - DB Multiverse
Actually...I'd argue that that whole thing comes from a MUCH darker place than any sort of prudishness. If we're talking about, say, the Taliban, they're main problem is that they are violent, and want to force their ideas on other people. They have such a lack of respect for other people's freedom, that they'll kill to make their idealogy a reality.The Monkey King wrote:This talk about "sexualised mid-driff" is why women are made to dress in full veils in some parts of the world.

Not that I was looking to argue any further; I just wanted to share my thoughts on THAT particular issue.

...And that's how we brought real world problems to Dragonball Multiverse. Can we please move past the midriff? Please?

Re: Fanmanga - DB Multiverse
While the current discussion isn't exactly off-topic since it's being linked back to an element of the comic, I'm still gonna ask everyone to please veer back on track to the comic itself before this unessecarily goes any further.
Re: Fanmanga - DB Multiverse
Sure, but coupled with that is also the feeling of being profoundly uncomfortable with anything remotely sexual or anything that could be viewed in some form as sexual in public... like a exposed belly. Without their violence, sure, they simply wouldn't do anything, but also without that feeling, they most likely wouldn't be violent about that particular issue.Fionordequester wrote:Actually...I'd argue that that whole thing comes from a MUCH darker place than any sort of prudishness.

In any case, can we just agree that this discussion is pretty stupid and that there is nothing actually wrong at all in that regard with the comic and move on?

Why not? That was never even my original point. The tummy thing was only incidental to the point I was ACTUALLY trying to make .rereboy wrote:In any case, can we just agree that this discussion is pretty stupid and that there is nothing actually wrong at all in that regard with the comic and move on?

Re: Fanmanga - DB Multiverse
Years ago I said that Bra has the makings of a villain.
Re: Fanmanga - DB Multiverse
Well, what's Vegetto gonna do as a disciplinarian? Ground her from training? But seriously, he's gotta do something. He pretty much lets her do whatever she wants. That could contribute to her thinking she can act any kinda way. Which leads to her to thinking destroying a planet while fighting is a minor casualty. Which leads to her thinking people are just minor casualties. Kinda sounds like her going down a path to becoming a villain is very likely in this case.FoolsGil wrote: Years ago I said that Bra has the makings of a villain.
Re: Fanmanga - DB Multiverse
Ideally, if he wasn't sort of a bipolar psychopath himself, I'd suggest he'd find a way to connect her emotionally to the people of earth beyond her family. Make normal friends, have fun, that sort of thing.Bansho64 wrote:Well, what's Vegetto gonna do as a disciplinarian? Ground her from training? But seriously, he's gotta do something.

The core principle of any martial art is that there are rules in a fight...
There is something seriously wrong with Bra's education.

I just love Vegetto in that last panel. "My Vegetto sense is tingling!"

Of course. This is a self-proclaimed kids' comic, after all. They're teaching morals.
Re: Fanmanga - DB Multiverse
There is no rules in a fight, so I'm gong to blow up the planet and die too because I can't survive in space. But how cares, I'll win the sparing match.
I find it hard to believe that she shares any of Goku or Bulma's DNA. This is Saiyan Saga Vegeta level of nuts.

Re: Fanmanga - DB Multiverse
For what it's worth, adult Bra doesn't seem quite as callously reckless so there's some character development happening here. It actually might be kind of neat to see Bra as a kind of deconstruction of Goku and Vegeta's parenting--what a superhuman child would actually be like with a father who only gave a shit about fighting. I doubt it'll go in that direction but I think that would be an angle worth exploring.
Re: Fanmanga - DB Multiverse
Don't fighters in Dragon Ball Z hurl energy attacks at the ground all the time? Freeza had to deliberately charge up an attack with the right concentration of ki in order to blow up Namek. Unless Bra is so poorly trained at this point in her life that she doesn't know how to hold back properly, the Earth should be fine. Theoretically, at least.
