Re: Most Annoying Bulma Moments
I don't see the point in blaming the characters for what is quite clearly humor added intentionally.

Kinda justifiable when you're a regular human left sitting idly on a planet far off in the galaxy that's under siege by a psycho alien space lord and his soldiers.DBZAOTA482 wrote:Why you being such a SJW?

Re: Most Annoying Bulma Moments
There are times when she can get naggy, but Namek isn't one of them.

Re: Most Annoying Bulma Moments
The second Bulma, Gohan and Krillin arrived on Namek, she yelled at Krillin and Gohan for getting off the ship before she could test whether they could breath on Namek. Then there was one particular scene where she complains to Gohan after rescuing her when Namek was being torn apart during the SSJ Goku/Freeza battle. Then there was a filler moment were she was complaining about being left alone to Gohan and Krillin.ABED wrote:Such as?

I'm saying it's totally reasonable she wants to know what the hell's going on, yeah?DBZAOTA482 wrote:Are you saying Bulma is in the right for stressing Gohan and Krillin with her selfish bullshit when they're in the middle of fighting a war?
Hold on, I gotta get out my Tumbleblog because I have human empathy and lack a need to prove my man-nads on the Internet. I'll get back to you when inequality gifs have told me what to think. I am hungry for outrage. Hungry for it!Why you being such a SJW?
Anyway, she probably does have one too many an anime-only scene with her complaining about circumstances on Namek. Which I still think is reasonable, mind you, because she's been let alone in an absolute hellscape with no clue what's happening and has to camp in a little crevice for days. But sure--if that's all you see of a character, when others are involved in plottier elements, it can start to grate.

Re: Most Annoying Bulma Moments
Now I wouldn't see it as a problem... if it was her own safety she feared for but she she just didn't like having to hide on a cave despite there being a massive genocide going on outside it (which they made pretty clear). Why give a fuck about her feelings if she doesn't give one about mine (or ours) even though my struggle is like greater?Cipher wrote:I'm saying it's totally reasonable she wants to know what the hell's going on, yeah?DBZAOTA482 wrote:Are you saying Bulma is in the right for stressing Gohan and Krillin with her selfish bullshit when they're in the middle of fighting a war?

I'm not a hater but she did bother me on Namek. It has nothing to do with manhood... that's just how I feel.

Re: Most Annoying Bulma Moments
You wouldn't be upset if your friends just went into an unknown environment without protection? She's constantly being left alone without much explanation to her about what's going on. I've never had a big problem with it, sure there were moments, but most of the characters have their's so I can't single out Bulma as more annoying than anyone else. Chichi, yes, but not Bulma.Lord Beerus wrote:The second Bulma, Gohan and Krillin arrived on Namek, she yelled at Krillin and Gohan for getting off the ship before she could test whether they could breath on Namek.

Because she's your friend and you want to not take that for granted even if you struggles were greater. And It's hyperbole to say she didn't care about Kuririn's and Gohan's struggles.Why give a fuck about her feelings if she doesn't give one about mine (or ours) even though my struggle is like greater?

Re: Most Annoying Bulma Moments
That's not what I meant. Basically what I'm saying she's being real inconsiderate (more than usual) being on their case like that and it's not like they're leaving her there just cuz. The hiding spot was specifically to keep her out of harm's way.ABED wrote:You wouldn't be upset if your friends just went into an unknown environment without protection?

Rather than stress them how about try pointing herself in their shoes? I mean, she's supposed to be genius so it's not like she can't do that.

Re: Most Annoying Bulma Moments
That's great that they have her best interest at heart, but being out of the loop would be hard for any reasonable person to take.
Intelligence has nothing to do with this issue. Would it have taken that much time to explain things to her? In some cases, sure, but in other cases, it wouldn't have hurt.Rather than stress them how about try pointing herself in their shoes?

Re: Most Annoying Bulma Moments
Now if she was concerned for her life or honestly was trying her bestest to help out then it wouldn't be a problem. The thing is she just doesn't like having to live in caves and it's driving her nuts she isn't being treated like a princess... despite the direness of the situation.ABED wrote:That's great that they have her best interest at heart, but being out of the loop would be hard for any reasonable person to take.

It's the sheer selfishness that's annoying.

Re: Most Annoying Bulma Moments
She is concerned with her life and she's light years away from home and is only there because only she could pilot the ship. It's not like she is in the thick of the action. She didn't see any of this direness. She's only been told about it so it wouldn't quite hold the same weight as actually experiencing the situation. And yes, she could be more understanding, but I don't think any of this is all that annoying. It's played for comedy and I find it to be an endearing quirk.DBZAOTA482 wrote:Now if she was concerned for her life or honestly was trying her bestest to help out then it wouldn't be a problem.

Re: Most Annoying Bulma Moments
IIRC she wasn't concerned with her life like that with having to live in caves. All she complained about is that it wasn't luxurious and her life wasn't threatened at all till Namek was gonna explode.ABED wrote: She is concerned with her life and she's light years away from home and is only there because only she could pilot the ship.

It's not super obnoxious like it is in the anime but it's not funny and doesn't need to be there.

Re: Most Annoying Bulma Moments
What about during the General Blue eps during the Red Ribbon army arc? She pretty much spent the whole thing complaining at Krillin and kicking him in the face when he dragged down her shorts while they were hanging from a cliff.

All for the sake of humor... If there was no humor, Bulma wouldn't have any of these problems because she would behave much more normally.precita wrote:What about during the General Blue eps during the Red Ribbon army arc?
