Re: Unpopular DB opinions
What I find funny about GT and Super's placement in the timeline is that Toei initially wanted to set GT before the end of Z, but it was Toriyama who suggested setting it after in order to avoid their creativity being limited. Everything that worked about GT (mainly the changes to the status quo) would not have happened had it been set before the end of Z

Re: Unpopular DB opinions
I believe any feat before the RRA saga should not be taken too seriously as Dragon Ball was written as a gag manga. I always felt like Roshi blowing up the moon in DB was played for laughs. With the idea of "First he blew up a mountain and now the moon! How wacky is that lol!" as the series was still being written as mainly a gag manga.
Dragon Ball became more seriously when you had characters like Tao Pai Pai show up.

Dragon Ball “feats” in general shouldn’t be taken too seriously, but good luck telling that to the power-scalers.Hellspawn28 wrote: Sun May 31, 2026 1:39 pm I believe any feat before the RRA saga should not be taken too seriously as Dragon Ball was written as a gag manga.

Piccolo Daimao's strongest attack can wipe out only a city and Piccolo's strongest attack only wipe out an island, but Roshi is weaker than those two.
