Too bad GT did a total 180 with Gogeta.

I actually liked how he was funnier in GT...although you aren't wrong. Meanwhile Vegetto Blue in Super was downright business when he showed up. Kind of weird lol.
The story of DRAGON BALL starts from the moment Goku met Bulma. I don't really mind the Z, so long as it's understood that it's not the true beginning of the story.

I actually prefer the Goku vs Tenshinhan and Goku vs Piccolo Jr. rivalries to the Goku vs Vegeta rivalry.

It's important to remember that Vegetto was stalling for time for a REASON: he was intentionally trying to piss Boo off into absorbing him so that he can free his friends from the inside. If that wasn't a factor then I'd imagine he'd get to it a lot faster than he really did.

Doh, that's true, I only just read the manga last year but somehow forgot that important detail. I still love the contrast between Vegetto's sillier personality and Gogeta's more serious one here, though.

I watched movie 12, and it was...fun. Weird, but fun. Certainly among my top 3.

This movie did not bore me at all, and while Janemba is sort of a ''rip-off'' of Majin Buu, he does have his own charm. The Hitler segments were hilarious, too.

The OST wasn't as great as others Kikuchi has composed for these movies, but it was quite ''servicable'' nonetheless.

Bio-Broly was truly bizzare, not in totally negative way. But I would say the Janemba movie is better overall. :thumbup:

Umm, dude...that sequence Goku eating pie/drinking talkin to Kaioshin & Gohan segment with Old Kai was in the manga as well. So thy dont count as filler...no offence, but they look like copy paste frm Wiki pr sumthin

While u mentioned ur opinion of M12, it wud be nice if u gave ur views on particular episodes. Ur likes/dislikes, pacing/storyboarding, artwork, animation, musical score, few word abt thr fight sequences/highlight moments etc.

Would be pretty fun to talk abt. Cool
