Well I apologize then. I must have left out the part where I said that this was all in my opinion.Cipher wrote:None of those are cons.
Pan not being able to turn SSJ, when she was clearly more powerful at the age of 4 than Goten or Trunks were (who were both able to trasnform at a very early age), is preposterous. However, the Daizenshuu gave a believable reason. This believable reason was then promptly shat upon by GT's desire to have SSJ descendants of Goku and Vegeta fighting each other. Keeping Pan from reaching SSJ in an attempt to keep GT from being as SSJ-happy as Z was would be understandable, if they didn't do just that in the last episode.Cipher wrote:The entertainment quality of a series does not depend on its ability to follow off-the-cuff information in a guidebook.
I'm not denying the possibility that the anime fucked up in that department, but I don't recall any instances of a SSJ1 having lightning or a SSJ2 lacking it. Either way, even Good Buu wouldn't be so easily disposed of.Cipher wrote: Do we know who's really SSJ2 when and who's not? The anime is never, ever consistent with it, even in Z. And Goku never says he was stronger than Kid Buu. Just "Buu," and probably Mr. Buu at that.
Please tell me which strength errors in the latter half of Z are you referring to. Aside from the fact that everything after the Cell Games was less enjoyable, you'd think that by after DBZ's run, Toei would have been able to learn from their and Toriyama's mistakes and be able to keep from creating more plotholes. You know, how you'd expect a sequel to a videogame to have improved on some of its predecessor's problems instead of emulating them.Cipher wrote: Better question, do these little niggling strength errors really affect your enjoyment of the show? If so, that sucks dude, I'm sorry. The latter half of Z must be terrible on you as well.
