My point still stands. Your all saying that the vast majority of parents in Japan say it's fine for 7 year olds to be watching blood shooting out of people's mouths & of course that Krillin Vs. Form 2 Frieza scene.

Yep. That's pretty much what we're saying. And guess what? We're right. DB/Z is a kids show in Japan. Yes, it's appealing to all ages, but it's a kids show. Hence the school supply merchandise. You really don't seem to understand the culture over there. They're not as strict and tight about those things.

<Kaboom> Neither does Rita
<Xyex> Good point.

So what if theres blood sometimes, the Simpsons Halloween episodes all have gory scenes, and some other episodes, they don't edit that out and it's watched in all countries by children. It's shown on TV too.

This has gone off topic anyway, we are talking about GT.

You need to learn how to debate properly. A "point doesn't still stand" just because you say so. You need something called "evidence" to back up a claim.

And Bejita is right. Mike has already told us to stop debating this and go back to discussing GT.

A point does stand when it is correct. Also, The Simpsons are not directed at children so that point doesn't even work.


Back on the topic of GT: GT had good stuff but in the end just cannot compare to Z. GT had a nice idea with the Black Star DB's but screwed up the idea with lame villains & Pan.

-_- I'm soooo going to get it for keeping this going but I just can't help it.

No......you have not proven your point to be correct. You just keep insisting it's correct. What you have is called an "opinion". Please take a course on debating so that you'll learn the difference.

And while I'm at it, I don't believe I've said anything about GT myself. Well I'm not a huge fan of it. I did enjoy parts and I've never found Pan obnoxious, but cute. I suppose she comes across that way in the English version. And the ending was indeed very touching, but at the same time, the fights and plots were very rehash. I was always thinking, "Haven't we done this before?" So I do indeed prefer DB and DBZ, and could honestly live without ever see GT again, but I'll still buy the series eventually, since I feel my collection won't be complete without it.

It's funny, you say that as though you yourself go by it.

Trunks Master Swordsman03, you single-handedly continue to bring the topic back to something completely irrelevant (not to mention without any kind of factual backing), and you are here-by banned... yet again.

I don't know when I'm going to take you off, if at all. I gave you a complete second-chance, and was beyond polite to you via e-mail and AIM, when I could have (and should have) just left it where it stood. You're probably gone for good.

Everyone else... your contributions aren't going un-noticed. Don't think I'm not paying attention to the so-called "regulars". I'm locking this thread and any potential there could have been in a normal conversation, because none of you know how to follow the god damn rules. It's not like I change the rules at my every whim; it's essentially been the same since the forum began, with no changes.

Stop trying to have the last word. That's my job. I'm not trying to be funny about it... seriously. You're not the damn moderators, and you're not acting accordingly to the rules you've already agreed to follow.

The end.
