Re: Unpopular DB opinions
GT is my favorite Dragon Ball series. In my opinion, all the reasons people give me for hating GT are unjustified. I mean it has great characters, designs, story, villains; there's nothing not to like! And don't even let me get started on the ending, it gives me chills everytime I watch it!

I have to agree with you. While GT is not perfect in my opinion, It has a charm that always draws me.Son Mizu wrote:GT is my favorite Dragon Ball series.

Do you follow the most comprehensive and entertaining Dragon Ball analysis series on YouTube? If you do, you're smart and awesome and fairly attractive. If not, see what all the fuss is about without even having to leave Kanzenshuu:

Re: Unpopular DB opinions
Personally, I don't think the Future Trunks/Black arc is a dark as many make it out to be. I feel like the atmosphere tries to be but I still think the arc as a whole fails to touch the sheer brutality and creepyness from a bunch of the other ones that we've gotten.
Edit: Let me just clarify that I'm in no means hating on the arc. I still like it.

Re: Unpopular DB opinions
It's darker than the rest of DBS, for sure, but it's also fairly comedy-centric. Honestly who doesn't find Zamasu hilarious? In fact, I'd argue that every arc from Piccolo to Cell is darker than this arc.Bansho64 wrote:Personally, I don't think the Future Trunks/Black arc is a dark as many make it out to be.

Also, I think the backgrounds fool people into thinking that the arc is more serious than it actually is.

I don't know if people have said this. I can't stand the Super opening anymore. I wish Toei would make a new one

Don't know how unpopular this is, but by design (Super spoiler):
[spoiler]Goku Black > Zamasu > Merged Zamasu[/spoiler]
Don't get me wrong, though. I love every one of them.

I hate how it's the Kaioshin that gives Goku and Vegeta the earrings and not Gowasu -- it would've held much more meaning to it. Gowasu giving the warriors his earrings to put an end to his failed student.

Re: Unpopular DB opinions
I dont get why so many want CN to get Dragon Ball Super. CN is a far cry from the glory days of Toonami. They only care about their original shows first and foremost? And they HATE action shows! Look at what happened to Young Justice!

Re: Unpopular DB opinions
Battle of Gods the movie was the first time Dragon Ball got legitimately great again since Namek.
When someone tells you, "Don't present your opinion as fact," what they're actually saying is, "Don't present your opinion with any conviction. Because I don't like your opinion, and I want to be able to dismiss it as easily as possible." Don't fall for it.

Re: Unpopular DB opinions
I like it, but it has worn on me over time. I tend to skip it more often than not. Then again, Dragon Ball never was a series to receive new openings frequently. It had 5 of them in about 500 episodes of its original run.The Patrolman wrote:I don't know if people have said this. I can't stand the Super opening anymore. I wish Toei would make a new one

Re: Unpopular DB opinions
The introduction of the Androids did more damage to Freeza's character than any material that would follow it.

While 19 and 20 are way too powerful even at their starting points, I think Toriyama somewhat helped the issue by making them energy based and Cell obviously works because he's a bizarre combination of everyone to justify his power/potential. It's the middle Androids who screw the pooch.

On Netflix. That's exactly what I meant, if left to the mercy of CN we are toast. Young Justice was lucky but its also the epitome of CN's hatred towards action shows.Lunatic Fringe wrote:Isn't it coming back for a third season?Cure Dragon 255 wrote:I dont get why so many want CN to get Dragon Ball Super.

Speaking of theme's, sans Super's opening, Cha-la is my least favorite theme.

Re: Unpopular DB opinions
Yeah, I should have been more specific about which Androids I was referring to. 16, 17, 18 and 19 are who I'm talking about. But 17 and 18 are the worst offenders due to the fact they are mostly human. Seriously, that absolutely murders any kind of mystique Freeza's character had. Freeza was by no means this unbelievable force of nature that should be reckoned with in the universe. He was ultimately just a big fish in a small pond. Because ultimately, an old, very intelligent, mad scientist in a cave with a box of scraps, with no idea of how strong Freeza is, can somehow created cyborgs that are far stronger than Freeza ever wished he could be.ekrolo2 wrote:*The introduction of 16, 17 and 18.Lord Beerus wrote:The introduction of the Androids did more damage to Freeza's character than any material that would follow it.

I fucking hate that so much.
It makes Freeza look like the luckiest character ever. Because if Dr Gero had decided to carry out his plan sooner and on a scale as large as Freeza, Freeza and his army would have been no match for him. People can complain about the circumstance of Freeza's official return in Resurrection F and how they feel the character wasn't explored in all the depth possible, and I will agree on several of those points, despite how much I love the film, but Resurrection F did one thing right in my eyes... it restored the notion that Freeza is a freak of nature that really shouldn't be swept aside so nonchalantly. If only Freeza acted a bit more smarter in that movie, he would have won.
