Toei had many ways to have good filler with Chi Chi, they didn't need to make her into a extremely awful character. Chi Chi trying to forbid Goku from training and forbidding 100% Goten and not caring about his want is extremely selfish of her. Chi Chi not wanting Goten to train with Goku and even play with Goku was stupid.It_Is_Ayna_You_Flips wrote: ↑Tue May 04, 2021 6:28 pmGays, lesbians, and other assorted queers being coded as left wing is a pretty recent thing. Owes a lot to the AIDs epidemic and the religious takeover of conservative groups. Back during the 20s, 30s, and 40s the queer community was a lot less politically polarized. It still arguably isn't at the elite level (literal vampire Peter Thiel is a hard conservative as is disgraced Hungarian politician József Szájer).PurestEvil wrote: ↑Tue May 04, 2021 2:39 pm I vaguely remember some quote from the internet (the most reliable resource) that said something about 1/7 NSDAP members being closet gays or some shit (Ernst Rohm was one of them)
But of course, let's keep the subject in line with the topic
And to bring the thread back on topic
I'm seeing a lot of hate being thrown at ChiChi over her 'bitchiness.' It's not fair to hold filler against a character when that filler is obviously just there to pad for time. She isn't nearly as bad in the manga as she is in the anime. Sure she vaults over Goku's prone body to check on Gohan but c'mon. Goku's friends kept his and Gohan's fates secret from her and then spent the next year ignoring her. Good chance she was finally reevaluating whether she wanted to be married into this group of people.
Chi Chi even took Pan away from Mr Satan and Gohan and locked herself, so Pan was away from them.
In DBZ Chi Chi developed into a great character that lost her hate for fighting and she even trained Goten herself, which is a great character development. Good thing she didn't lose that development in DBS Manga.
Edit Chi Chi knows how Future Gohan died to being weak and Future Goten died due to being weak, yet thinks Goten shouldn't train at all and stay forbidden from training.
