And the Number #1 Villan is :[spoiler]Freeza[/spoiler]
Dragon Ball was always a kid series and fans should stop being in denial.

Thank God they didn't go with the contrarian approach just to be "unique". That's when you get stupid shit like IGN ranking Thor as top Avenger over Captain America.

So first off. Honorable mention, Nam? Huh? The man could probably ride Kintoun!

Next. Monster Carrot, I love him. It's so weird that Toriyama just threw in a standalone episode/few chapters with the guy though. He didn't even have a dragonball, I guess Toriyama had a quota back then of chapters needed to be done before Pilaf could be reached.

And then Freeza. You know, just like the Red Ribbon Army, I wish Toriyama had more forethought because he should have been a 2 to 3 arc villain as well. In my humble opinion? Freeza would have worked best as the bogeyman. Mentioned on Earth, doesn't even show up on namek until everything's gone to shit and the heroes run away via dragon magic because Goku and Vegeta are thoroughly spanked! And then, an arc later, Freeza comes to Earth, and we see the greatest villain face off against Goku, Vegeta, or even both, before taken down in amazing show.

Well he was a founding member unlike Cap...

Anyway I wasn't suggesting that King Piccolo had no idea who Kami was, just that he didn't know that if Kami died, he would die too.

Great list, for me personally, King Piccolo is #1, i watched Dragon Ball as it was created, and to this day i remember how shocked i was when he killed Shenron, i really thought that Kuririn and others were gone forever, and later on, he really conquered world, Freeza is great, but King Piccolo is much better :)

I'm not affiliated with TFS, but can I make a guess?

If WEN BROLY is going to be a two parter, then I'd imagine that WEN BROLY part 2 will come sometime in January, and Plan to Eradicate Christmas will come out in February (ironically enough). So March will be when the #cellgames begin...

Yes, he's just in a different time zone, so at the time of writing, it was the 24th, where he was, whereas it was already morning for us Europeans.

I'm pretty sure Cap is considered a founding member since he joined up after the Hulk left 3 issues in.

"Founding" means that he founded it. If he joined up after it was founded, he was not a member that founded it.

You know who else was a founding member? Wasp. You don't see anyone pulling that "Wasp > Cap" bollocks just because she joined first, do you? :P

Well. That was fun. You took (normal) Broly in a direction I didn't expect at all, not that that's a bad thing.
"Princess Trunks" makes me laugh, but it hurts a little as well... WEN BULLA
I'm noticing some music choices now, particularly Beerus' theme, which played during the transformation. I don't know how much that says about the time I've spent on this forum... :?
Looking forward to Part 2! ...And then Broly 2: Legendary Boogaloo! ...And then I Can't Believe It's Not Broly!

I noticed A LOT of Super soundtracks used in this one.

Very entertaining, but not very funny, I thought. It's usually the opposite, the series episodes are usually entertaining and not very funny, while the movies and specials are a riot.

Well, that was good. Liked that King Kai mentioned Beerus, that animated piece of Yajirobe and Korin as well done. I think Paragus should get another voice, I know General Ivan is a great voice actor, but his Paragus is not much different from Coola and Dr. Gero.

Loved Cell appearance on this! Most of edits were well done, but that one with Tao was not much. Don't know if I appreciate the usage of Super soundtrack in the parody, as "Beerus Madness" shouldn't be used for Broly IMO

Looking foward to see the second part! :thumbup:
