Re: Unpopular DB opinions
I liked them more before a friend loaned me the Dragon Boxes. You can't really go back once you experience the real deal. It's like someone threw a bucket of water on the footage, destroying any sense of depth, destroying the details in the backgrounds, degrading the linework. The whole thing just looks like melted wax in comparison. Luckily, the Blu-rays are affordable enough to make up for it (even though they could have put out something better for the same or less). They're basically in the same situation as the Orange Bricks.Bansho64 wrote:This seems to be a pretty unpopular one on here;

Re: Unpopular DB opinions
I've seen the Dragon Boxes. They're awesome and I definitely think they look better, but like you said, the Blu Days are more affordable. I ain't got the money for all that.Jinzoningen MULE wrote: I liked them more before a friend loaned me the Dragon Boxes. You can't really go back once you experience the real deal.

Goku Show (starring Vegeta) > (power gap) > Equal screentime, ensembling cast.
The whole concept of giving equal time to the cast is total BS and gives me cancer whenever a fan demands it.

Dragon Ball was always a kid series and fans should stop being in denial.

Re: Unpopular DB opinions
Agreed, not about the cancer thing, but certainly about giving equal screen time. It's just not that series. It's not about the number of minutes, it's the quality of the minutes.Neo-Makaiōshin wrote:Goku Show (starring Vegeta) > (power gap) > Equal screentime, ensembling cast.

The biggest truths aren't original. The truth is ketchup. It's Jim Belushi. Its job isn't to blow our minds. It's to be within reach.

Re: Unpopular DB opinions
Frost, Cabba, and Hit ain't human. Also I'm not referring to mortals by the way, so uh why did you assume I was talking about mortals?

Human and mortal are both "ningen" and can be used interchangeably with one another, though human is technically more correct since none of the Gods besides most of the new ones are actually immortal.Gog wrote:Frost, Cabba, and Hit ain't human.

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 made a bet with Alee9977 that Vegeta won't be beaten quickly by an opponent. If I lose, I switch my avatar to Vegeta getting beat by hit. If I win, he switches it to Vegeta holding Black by his hair. This will last a month.
Re: Unpopular DB opinions
I don't like it either since it just needlessly complicates things when you can call Namekians and Saiyan's (who aren't humans) human. The mortal one isn't perfect because a lot of the Gods aren't immortal but I think you can get away with it thanks to some of the new one's like Zeno, the Angels,...kinisking wrote:Were not speaking or translating from Japanese so I don't think human and mortal should be used interchangeably at all.ekrolo2 wrote:Human and mortal are both "ningen" and can be used interchangeably with one another, though human is technically more correct since none of the Gods besides most of the new ones are actually immortal.Gog wrote:

Re: Unpopular DB opinions
In English the words "mortals" and "humans" clearly have different meanings, and Gog used "humans", Gaffer Tape most likely intentionally misinterpreted it as some sort of joke since that sort of confusion only works in Japanese.ekrolo2 wrote:How do you mean?TheUltimateNinja wrote:That's clearly not the case in English, though.
Re: Unpopular DB opinions
Norio Wakamoto is an overrated voice actor. His performance as Cell has gotten considerably worse and as a voice actor in general, all of his roles are a bit same-y, due to him constantly doing that wacky over-the-top voice all the time.

Re: Unpopular DB opinions
Is this unpopular? I thought most fans thought Wakamoto goofed around too much in recent works like Kai. His original work in the DBZ through Cowboy Bebop era were his best roles. He can still do some of his good old acting, but I think he needs more direction/attempts now. Like his roles in Detective Conan are spot on.Doctor. wrote:Norio Wakamoto is an overrated voice actor.

I've never liked Wakamoto's Cell, it's never sat right with me.
