I accept what they have done with Gohan in Super and GT and I really like what they did with Goten in GT.

...Well, I mean, he's not a billionaire.
...and probably not a genius either.
...and considering the definition, the jury's kinda out on the whole philanthropy thing.

He doesn't get much time in the Super manga, but in the anime I always figured him to be the normal one of the family that realizes that all of his relatives are insane.MasenkoHA wrote: ↑Tue Jun 04, 2019 9:00 pmLadies manWittyUsername wrote: ↑Tue Jun 04, 2019 8:24 pmI don’t think I even know how to describe Goten’s character in GT.SSJGAffleck wrote: ↑Tue Jun 04, 2019 4:54 pm I accept what they have done with Gohan in Super and GT and I really like what they did with Goten in GT.

Not really.

Re: Unpopular DB opinions
The thing to remember with GT Goten is that, while they basically made it his entire character trait, it wasn't made up for GT specifically. Goten at the end of the manga and the DBZ anime was also going on about having to miss a date due to training with Goku. Toei took that moment and made it his whole MO instead of making it just a part of his character, but the idea itself does still come from Toriyama originally.

Re: Unpopular DB opinions
I was just about to come in here and say that GT Goten is best Goten, but I guess I don't need to because we're already having a discussion about him.
Caulifla best girl!
Re: Unpopular DB opinions
it depends how you see it ... I like it more goten gt because it is more original and he stop being a copy of kid goku however it is easy to realize that this version of goten is very limited ... because only one aspect of his personality in his side human but nothing of him as a warrior ... in the epilogue only that aspect of him is mentioned but it should be only a part and not all that is the character.

GT Goten is the only version of this character that had ANY relevance in series as a character on his own and only series where he isn't kid Goku's clone.

Re: Unpopular DB opinions
Goten looked like Goku but their personalities were distinct. Goku was driven to be a great martial artist. It's what he lived for. Goten did it because he was good at it and it was fun, but he never struck me as motivated to be the best.sunsetshimmer wrote: ↑Fri Jun 07, 2019 7:02 pmGT/DBS Gohan >> DBZ Gohan (except for early Buu saga episodes)SSJGAffleck wrote: ↑Tue Jun 04, 2019 4:54 pm I accept what they have done with Gohan in Super and GT and I really like what they did with Goten in GT.

Re: Unpopular DB opinions
Pan hinted in one episode that Goten went on multiple dates with different girls before Valese (or whatever her name was) but they all dumped him.
So yeah, he was more of a horny teenage boy that just really wanted a gf.
Re: Unpopular DB opinions
Pan also said that she had "boyfriends" who also abandoned her because she was too strong. I do not think that is a determining factor of personalityDestructoDisc wrote: ↑Sat Jun 08, 2019 7:03 amPan hinted in one episode that Goten went on multiple dates with different girls before Valese (or whatever her name was) but they all dumped him.

Only dubs that matter are DB, Kai, & Super. Nothing else.

Re: Unpopular DB opinions
The Buu arc is my favorite
Re: Unpopular DB opinions
Goten was never a Kid Goku clone? Goku as a kid was vulgar, unrefined, and a bumpkin. Goten in Z was kind of just a run of the mill “kid”sunsetshimmer wrote: ↑Fri Jun 07, 2019 7:02 pmGT/DBS Gohan >> DBZ Gohan (except for early Buu saga episodes)SSJGAffleck wrote: ↑Tue Jun 04, 2019 4:54 pm I accept what they have done with Gohan in Super and GT and I really like what they did with Goten in GT.

Re: Unpopular DB opinions
It probably is my favorite arc of the Z portion. And probably my third favorite overall behind 23 Budokai and Piccolo Daimao.

Re: Unpopular DB opinions
Bulla was even younger, and was getting hit on by some adults in the episode where she went shopping with Vegeta. GT had some.. questionable moments to say the least.Scsigs wrote: ↑Sat Jun 08, 2019 9:09 pmGotta also remember Pan was 9 in GT, so...ew...Tai Lung wrote: ↑Sat Jun 08, 2019 8:07 pmPan also said that she had "boyfriends" who also abandoned her because she was too strong.
