Even though terms like "Mystic Gohan" and "Ultra Super Saiyan" are incorrect, I've been using those them for years. I'm not about to change it. And even if they are wrong, if you use them fans will still know what you're referring to. Ditto with calling it the "DBZ OVA".

So, I wasn't the only one who felt out of place while playing Budokais 2, 3, and BT seeing "Elder Kai Power up" or "Ultimate" as his title. Ultimate is the..ultimate word to describe someone, the fact that he was beated by Buu after just makes him seem even more pathetic (Gohan was supposed to beat Buu threads come back from the dead). So Mystic, Mystic, Mystic for everybody!! Viva la power levels!*runs like hell*

"Ultra Super Saiyan" pisses me off too. These forms have official names!

And yes, you may quote my prior post. Why even ask? Desire never asks, and that makes it all the more worth it.
Just being polite and whatnot... :wink: Your one witty guy Duo.

Back on topic... the term "Ultimate" Gohan or "Mystic" Gohan really doesen't matter to me. I mean even though Gohan was supposed to be the all powerful guy in Dragonball his defeat by (Super) Buu makes it all the more dramatic if he was at his ultimate. Still does that mean he can't go SSJ ? It's all speculation but using "Mystic" as a term is not completley incorrect since his power was harnessed in a "mystical" way through the Elder Kai.

P.S. Like your new avatar "Mr. Piccolo". Snazzy.... my favourite character...in green no less. 8)

Yes, dammit. If he could, he would've when Gotenks-Buu was tearing him a new asshole.

Have you ever even considered the thought that almost all anime DVDs in the US have the Japanese version too? Even if companies like Funimation or ADV do a "bad dub", they still include the original audio. So your reasoning makes no sense, you're getting the original version...

Admitting you're someone who just downloads anime without supporting the real releases (which are bilingual, including DBZ and Azumanga Daioh DVDs)... why, why are you even on this board? :roll:

I, too, am severely irritated by this. You aren't spitting on the Dub company so much as you are spitting on Toei Animation and Akira Toriyama. You owe it to them, at least. Grow up!

I clicked the links and to be completely and fully honest...I have seen sexier and raunchier stick figure drawings. Buuullshiiiittto.Then there is the fact that I am really older than 18 (that's all you need to know thank you very much!) and this is no big deal for me. Isn't that second link VegetaxBulma or GokuuxChichi (Leche=Milk instead of Chichi=tits dead horse, stop beating it, yes I know). I mean that might be anything and you just can't tell. Hahahaha. No, really.

-Keep demanding more characters in the DBZ video games.

Now, if it's someone fairly important to the story, say, the non-Ginyu or Recoome members of the Ginyu Force, that's fine. The big movie villians (Tullece, Cooler, #13, etc), fine. Some what-if fusions, like Tiencha or Gokule, also fine. [This does not include retarded fusions like lolfreezacell or lolbrolykrillin or lolpiccoloallnameks]

But worthless characters like King Cold, Henchman #1/2/3/4/5/6/7/8/9/10/11/12/13/14/15..../9,000!, WHY?! They have no moves. They have no character. They have NOTHING! NOTHING! WHY DO YOU WANT THEM IN THE GAME?! WHYYYYYYYYY!!!

Remember what I said earlier about hating people using overused songs in Dragon Ball AMVs? Here's what I mean..

Move in now move out
Hands up now hands down
Back up back up
Tell me what you're gonna do now
Keep rollin' rollin' rollin'rollin' (x4)

The first one was actually pretty good, though. Lotta good timing, lipsyncing, and everything. But I see what you mean. Holy moley.

Sorry for the necropost, but I had to say my new #1 annoyance for DBZ fandom.

DBZ AMVs using "Du Hast", by Rammstein. The song is about a guy saying no to his wedding vows! Unless your video is that scene where Goku backhands ChiChi through a wall, don't use that song!

Are you guys like 12 or something? There's nothing wrong with hentai. And you don't have to click the links.

Since we're about to launch into a debate on it, I'll say there is, and I have a problem with pornography in general. But this forum isn't really the place for it. Do we want a good forum, or the ones filled with lamers?

Pictures of sex. Fake sex, at that. It's harmless. There's plenty of more objectionable content out there to get offended over. Whether this is the place for it or not is up to the admin, but he seems to run a "mature" forum here, and if they aren't directly displayed, then I fail to see the problem.

Uhm...people are saying that hentai is a bad thing?

*runs*

But seriously, I don't think that there should be any hentai linkage on these forums. Sure, that hentai is nothing. Hell, I've been fooled into thinking that Toriyama drew some of the hentai. It's drawn that good. Too bad these artists couldn't draw some cool DB stories...along with the hentai.
