You get a wish from Shenron

Post by Polyphase Avatron » Tue Jun 01, 2021 2:47 pm

I searched the forum and surprisingly I couldn't find a thread like this.

Say that you've gathered all 7 Dragonballs (we'll use the part 1 Shenron, who can grant 1 wish, for simplicity's sake). What do you wish for?

I didn't put this in the in-universe forum because I'm asking what you would wish for in real life, not if you were in the DB universe.

To become a God. That way I've got a crap-ton of fairly undefined powers that I could use to do some real good, and I wouldn't be limited to the outcome of just one wish. I'd use my powers to do big things like cure diseases, heal the planet, and invent space colonies, along with a few admittedly petty things like renew a few cancelled shows for one more season and bring back food that stopped being made (Tombstone was out of their mind to stop making stuffed crust pizzas). After all that, I'd give up my powers so I could live out the rest of my life in the peaceful world I've helped usher in as a mortal.

"To think of fighting that is this fun...so, it was pleasant fight, as many as, therefore is a feeling which is good the fight where."

To become a Legendary Saiyan, if I wasn't one already. If I continued to gather them I would ask for other wishes.

Being able to control Ki, from there I'll use Ki related techniques for just fun.
Dragon Ball was always a kid series and fans should stop being in denial.

10 million dollars so I can 1) hire somebody to build a Dragon Radar and 2) have enough money to fuck off and not worry about anything.

I'd wish for a home release of all the Canadian dubs, including Ocean Kai.

To be able to travel to any point in the earths prehistoric past and take others with me.

I want to see our primordial world throughout its history. To walk with mammoths and see dinosaurs.

I’d also take scientists back in time to study all of the prehistoric life that we can only understand from their fossils.

I would wish for every single episode of DB/Z to be animated as good as Movie 12 & 13.

It's almost like our economic system is designed to keep us constantly resource deficient, thus leaving us in a constant state of unease...

Not really materialism when you just don't want to be om the knife's edge of death your whole life.
