Nowadays many disrespect Akira's designs of Characters

Post by Lujin_16 » Sun Oct 23, 2016 2:53 pm

Why has Akira so much fans who disrespect him??? For example the fusion of Black Goku/Zamasu ..Just becuase the designs are different that fanmades??? Back then we enjoyed the series without complain about designs but now thanks to the internet it's getting ridiculous..

What do you mean by "disrespect"? You mean dislike?

And why does someone disliking the designs immediately become the equivalent of the internet being ridiculous?

No offense, but I'm honestly not seeing any of this disrespect that you're detailing. This really just seems like a case of making up something that really isn't even there in the first place.

Disliking the character design is less direspectful than calling the man just "Akira", I'd say.

feel free to take it with grain of salt or discredit me altogether, I'm not losing any sleep"

He's trying to say people bitch about every design Toriyama creates in DBS, especially what was revealed in this week's NEP. '
As opposed to before where most people loved every new design and just enjoyed the show without bitching and moaning, which is all this fanbase does nowadays.

Did everyone really love every design back then? Cause silence does not equal approval I've found in the DB fandom, especially on here.
When someone tells you, "Don't present your opinion as fact," what they're actually saying is, "Don't present your opinion with any conviction. Because I don't like your opinion, and I want to be able to dismiss it as easily as possible." Don't fall for it.

I'm not agreeing with him but i don't think so, although I could guess they'd be more approved of overall back then.

Voicing grievances is not necessarily "disrespectful". How do you disrespect something without sentience, anyway? If you're saying that complaining about them is disrespectful to Toriyama himself, I also have to take issue. Some of his designs are lacking, are we supposed to pretend that everything's fine when that does happen?

So what if he does? You're making a lot of assumptions and making a big deal out of people having different opinions than you. Like different designs doesn't equal being disrespectful.

People have high expectations for DragonBall. Especially people who have been into the series for years. So if a design doesn't meet a certain standard (Whatever that standard is to whomever) then it will be seen as bad. Especially when people are wanting something "unique" whatever that's supposed to mean.

Not everyone has to like every design Toriyama makes, and choosing to not like something of his doesn't mean disrespect. It's all just opinion and you should probably learn to just take it as such. I get it if you're curious about those opinions but you're making a lot of assumptions.
