It would be lazy garbage writing and so rightfully criticised by its fanbaseBullza wrote:I don't think I've ever known a fanbase that's opinions on a show in general are affected so much by power levels in it. Not specifically referring to this topic or even this forum, it's just something with this fanbase in general.
For example if they had Piccolo and Gohan show up and they fought Black and it was a really good entertaining fight scene, fantastic animation, one of the best fights in all the franchise. Instead of people enjoying it though people would be ripping the show and Toriyama because "but power levels!". You'd be likely to see more people criticizing it for that than praising it for how good it was.
It matters a lot actually, it breaks suspension of disbelief.Does it really matter? It was a fantastic scene, arguably one of the best scenes in the series. Very entertaining actually and I watch the scene over on Youtube every now and then. I certainly don't let the fact that Trunks was able to do this and questioning the writing behind it stop me from really enjoying the scene.
Trunks got a new form. The scene where he obtained it was cool, it looks cool, it was involved in several scenes of the anime that were pretty cool. It'll probably be a playable character in video games in the future. Is it really that important to know what it specifically is? It's just a new more powerful form.
The arc clearly portrays that these enemies are leagues beyond Trunks in the 1st episode of the arc. And now we're supposed to believe that he can go toe-to-toe with said enemies and God level allies?
Nah, that's just trash writing.
1. At least Goku saw the KamehamehaIt's a problem apparently that Trunks was able to use the Spirit Bomb that Goku had to train months to learn but it's perfectly fine for Master Roshi to have learnt and perfected the Kamehameha in 50 years and for Goku to do it in 50 seconds. Let's not wait to see if anything is explained about it in the next episode, let's rip it apart before the possible explanations instead.
2. Goku comes from an alien race who are naturally adept at utilising their ki in order to fire off beams of energy.
Trunks' case was just one of the biggest asspulls in the series.
Dragon Ball was just a kid's comic book and it was written leagues better than the pile of garbage that is Dragon Ball Super.It's a kids anime that's meant for entertainment, it's not supposed to be over analysed and studied to the point that you go out of your way to find holes in it which just ruins the show for you.
Honestly it's great for you that you're so easily satisfied with awful writing, but some of us actually want the show we want to have both style and substance.
As for your posts about Black I agree with you, but in this thread we're talking about Trunks
