Unpopular DB opinions

I genuinely think the Baby arc is good 7/10

[dbgtFO]

He created the other forms because his power is so great that he must transform himself in order to control it.

So wait... He created more powerful transformations because his power is so great that he must transform into those forms to control it? Even though that's exactly the opposite of what Freeza said? Shouldn't be the other way around? Exactly how it's stated in the images above?

Yes, Freeza becomes so powerful that his body transforms itself the higher his power gets. He says that it is difficult to control his power without transforming. Maybe "create", maybe not. But if he needs more power than his original form allows, then he transforms. His first form is his natural/birth form.

Agreed, though personally I don't think he created them. They are simply what naturally came about once he tapped into his out of control power.

Baby is probably the most solid arc in GT. The only real stumbling points for me are the stupid filler episodes with those shapeshifting aliens & that stupid fucking dice game that bring the pace of the arc WAY down to a halt just to play a rigged board game & introduce us to characters who we don't have any reasons to care about & the ending was really rushed just to get it over with. Everything else, I feel was really well done. The setups were all good, the tension was great, & it's a villain we hadn't quite seen in DB, outside of a bad filler Z arc, & I loved it. The payoffs, though, weren't that great at times. And that's the worst thing about it for me.

It's the one good arc in GT, even though it has a few problems itself.

It was really good until great ape baby from there on it became hit and miss for me But I LOVED the ending episodes where Goku teleported the whole earth to Planet Tsufuru

I don’t why but I kinda liked the episodes with those aliens it was weird but somehow creativ and unique (for me)

Yeah blasting Baby into the sun was weak sauce

Baby was in his most badass looking form, too, yet he did not do anything in that despite it showing up in the freaking title sequence

It would be good if Broly and Cooler weren't already blasted into it.
I think it would be cool if Vegeta was the one killing Baby, although his body was heavily beaten at this point and he probably wouldn't stand a chance even if he was at his full strength anyway, considering adult Baby was said by Trunks to be stronger than anything in universe, so only Goku SSJ4 and maybe Majuub could potentialy beat him. Unless Vegeta blasted him into sun as well.

I don't think it's that as much as the how. He runs into a space ship like a coward and Goku blasts the ship into the sun. It wasn't even the result of a ki battle.

...How are you posting this? It says you are "Temporarily Banned"? Not that I mind that you are back! I love you man!

Piccolo was the Devil reborn. Threatening to snap a neck isn't unexpected...That's not being a dick. If anything it's the opposite.

I know this thread is called "unpopular opinions", but it is best you back your arguments with consistent logic.

What does that mean? Piccolo was evil, so it makes sense for him to threaten Gohan like that. It doesn't mean that he is necessarily a dick. And I was referring mostly to Piccolo's leaving Gohan in the wilderness as not being a dick move. It's harsh training, but the coming threat was a serious one. It's appropriate for the training to be tough, and Piccolo is ensuring Gohan's survival.

Here's an unpopular opinion - while a little on the long side, the best part of the Freeza fight is after Goku turns Super Saiyan. After seeing Freeza (painfully) draw out his punishment of our heroes, it felt so good to see Goku finally turn the tables.

I wouldn't have anything against anime adaptation of DBS manga, including the arcs that anime covered already, if Toei really decided adapt the entire main manga from the very start.

Let me add onto this statement by saying: I do not actually mind the dragged out fight between Freeza and Goku. Yeah, it makes no sense how they can talk that much in 5 minutes, but I did not feel bored.

Piccolo was evil, and was a dick. End of story. It makes sense for an evil person to be a dick, but he was still a dick.

I was referring to pacing, not the five minute issue. Regardless, I wasn't bored by it whereas I did grow tired of waiting for Goku to arrive after Freeza beats up the good guys and transform over and over.

I, too, was referring to the pacing.

I guess I don't see evil and dickery as being the same things. I know Piccolo was evil, but I never saw him as a dick. Certainly not with Gohan.

There is no context where telling a 4 year old to stop crying or you’ll snap his neck isn’t dick behavior.
