Why did I laugh so hard at this? I need sleep.
It's okay, I did too. I laughed when Super Sonic first said it, too. :lol:

I only know a couple of people who are really into it and they live in different areas from me. One's a dub fan and the other is a fan of the original. I'd talk a bout Dragonball all the time to them if I could actually get to hang out with them more often because they'd actually enjoy long conversations about it. Since they don't live nearby, I get on the Internet a lot for this sort of thing. I do know a couple others who I live my daily life amongst, though, who are somewhat into it:

One of my Japanese friends used to watch Dragonball on TV with her older brother and right now she's watching Kai as it hits the Internet and going through my Japanese tankoubon of Dragonball. She's somewhere early into the Cell Game right now and reads about once or twice a week at my place. I can usually talk to her about whatever she's watching or reading about but that's about it and I can make small references here and there. However, she's not the type to have really long conversations about it. Instead, a couple words and/or some "Japanese telepathy" (I can't remember the actual Japanese term for it) is enough between me and her.

Also, my girlfriend (who I met in Japanese 101 back in '06) is interested enough in Dragonball that she read the entire manga once and sat through most of DBZ in Japanese with me, but it's not really an everyday fandom kind of thing. While I can't go on and on for days about how cool this or that is, I can usually let out some excitement I have over a certain new release or she'll sit and watch Kai with me every now and then. We're into the same things, but where she's obsessive I'm just a fan and where she's just a fan I'm obsessive.

Rub it in my face, why don't ya? :lol:

There is no goddamn way I'd find a moderately decent girl that's into DB, racing, and is straight-edge, in the Dub-V. No way whatsoever.

Compare finding a girlfriend like that to Kuririn finding some pussy, Pre-#18 and Maron. It doesn't happen often, if at all.

I'd consider myself to be a bit Son Goku...

In that I'm generally a nice guy, but I'm often selfish, unreliable and really don't keep contact with people as much as I should. :P

Trunks, the future one.

Not that I grew up in a living hell without a father :P
But most of the time I'm serious about stuff, like Trunks is. I'm also shy, but not afraid to stand up for my friends when necessary. I also sometimes make mistakes caused by my own inexperience.
Usually goes by "Kevtrev" elsewhere online.

I would probably say Teen Dende, because I'm calm most of the time, and I would say that I'm most of the time smart, oh and Dende is just awesome :D

Maybe that's why people think of me as Son Goku sometimes. Or maybe it's because I'm forgetful and it reminds them of Son Goku's absent-mindedness.

Who knows...?

I'm like Goku in his dorky moments, especially around food.

Actually it's a lot closer to Goku from Dragonball Z Abridged, except... y'know... not dumb. :P

Zephyr wrote:And that's to say nothing of how pretty much impossible it is to capture what made the original run of the series so great. I'm in the generation of fans that started with Toonami, so I totally empathize with the feeling of having "missed the party", experiencing disappointment, and wanting to experience it myself. But I can't, that's how life is. Time is a bitch. The party is over. Kageyama, Kikuchi, and Maeda are off the sauce now; Yanami almost OD'd; Yamamoto got arrested; Toriyama's not going to light trash cans on fire and hang from the chandelier anymore. We can't get the band back together, and even if we could, everyone's either old, in poor health, or calmed way the fuck down. Best we're going to get, and are getting, is a party that's almost entirely devoid of the magic that made the original one so awesome that we even want more.

I would say that I'm Android 16. How can I compare myself to an android? Well... I'm a pretty big(six feet 2) and intimidating guy, but I'm one of the most gentle and friendly(but shy) people you could ever meet. Plus I'm not very smart... I have a one track mind. I usually focus on one thing(like 16 being focused on killing goku) and I don't think about anything else.

Since Kunzait can't post without tickling my literary muse I figured I'd go ahead and give my explanation.

I'm North Kai in the sense that I'm usually fairly goofy and happy go lucky. I love to joke but have an awful sense of humor not to mention I can't resist a good pun.

When I serious the fuck up my entire demeanor changes and I become more solemn and analytical. I usually tend to take the North Kai approach to people like Freeza and urge everybody to avoid them at all costs and to not get involved even if it means others have to experience something you don't feel is right. I feel you can help people but just don't make rash decisions and jump into something way over your head.

I'm Oolong in the sense that I'm a giant perv but won't go as far as to do anything Muten Roshiesque such as physically touching a female without their consent. I have some devious thoughts but can suppress them just enough to look like a functioning part of society. However sometimes I slip up and show just how much of a perv I am. However close friends know about my perversion already just like how Oolong wasn't fooling Bulma or Puar.

I'm Yajirobe due to the fact that I give into gluttony and I am usually just out to look after myself. However if someone I respect gives me a task I reluctantly agree (like how Yajirobe became Korin's senzu delivery boy.) I have potential but rarely ever use it and just prefer the lazy comfortable life style. I have my brief heroic moments that often get overlooked in the grand scheme of things probably due to my usual attitude.
