Vegeta's Crew Cut

It's really annoying how Vegeta, Gohan, and Goten have basically identical hairstyles in GT, especially at Super Saiyan.

That doesn't bother me as much, cause Goten and Trunks haven't trained worth crap in fifteen years, so Gotenks has lost power; Goku has trained, plus has a new SSJ form so it makes some sense (at least by DB standards) that they wouldn't help much at all.

What pisses me off is Super 17, where even SSJ(2?) Vegeta does jackshit, but SSJ Kid Goku's first attack knocks S17 across half the planet.

That Vegeta bit bugs me too, but there are so many other things that make Super 17 shit, I don't bother with it.

D'oh! So much for my crazy theories! Thanks a bunch, Toei...
(Also, I'm going to say Ka-Beard at least five times this week.)

As far as the characters nicely falling into their familiar relationships in GT, I think the only failures are the family-less Piccolo, Tien, and Yamcha. I like to imagine that Tien eventually marries Launch and Yamcha marries Marron (not Krillin's daughter, but his Ex-girlfriend). And stick Piccolo on the lookout with New Kami Dende. That way everybody at least kinda has someone.

EDIT: I love that the board automatically corrects Tien's dub name. It's almost poetic.

I don't know, I always thought Ten was gay. Not that there's anything wrong with that, but it's always been my impression.

I've always thought that too! Wow, I thought I was the only one getting that vibe. I just assumed that was why he and Launch never ended up together...

Well, weather he's gay for Chiaotzu, hot for blond Launch, or totally asexual, I hope he's a happy and fulfilled fictional character.

I'm sure this is why he hides in the mountains.

Here, here!

Yamcha getting together with Marron? That's almost as out-of-character as him cheating on Bulm- oh.
Seriously, how could ANYONE want Marron? She's an annoyingly fickle floozy. Plus, she LITERALLY looks exactly like Bra. Least, I think.

Yeah, but she has really big -- . . Shoes.

Yeah.

Another amen note here. I wish he had gotten some kind of happy summary instead of falling off the face of the earth.

Also agreeing with the notes that the other chars also needed some kind of happy summary- or even a vaguely happy summary, not stuck-in-hell and miserably-alone and who-was-that-guy-again? Stuff like that. This is a real violent little sticking point for me.

I pair Yamcha with Marron because he WAS hitting on her when Krillin brought her around and that is WHY Bulma dumped him. It just seemed fitting...

To be fair, Yamcha had a whole fan club of young girls in Dragon Ball (that's why Bulma was annoyed with him and went off with Goku to find the four-star-ball, eventually running into General Blue). So I'm sure Marron wasn't the only girl he ever flirted with ever.

And to be even fairer... Yamcha wasn't even flirting with Marron. I remember that episode. SHE was all over him; all he did was be polite with her and blush a bit. Bulma's just a jealous girlfriend.

Hey guys...

"Marron"

"Maron"

Velasa · Post by **Velasa** » Tue Jul 15, 2008 9:33 pm

I'm pretty sure we've all noticed that before. It always freaked me out, until I realized Maron the bimbo was filler. So Krillian isn't just hung up on some old girlfriend.

On Yamcha- he rarely ever flirted with anyone. Girls were always flirting with him- and he was very shy about it. This reputation he's gained as a womanizer really isn't correct. I only really remember instances of him looking at attractive women who show up suddenly, or pretty girls on tv. He never went chasing after anyone but Bulma in any serious way.

No, I meant, everyone keeps talking about how all these people, Yamcha and all, were flirting with "Marron" when he was flirting with "Maron."

Well, he and Marron were pretty close together during the 25th Tenkaichi Budoukai...

I've honestly never known or cared enough about either character to remember which has two 'r's and which has one ^^;
