Why? Then they would be doing the exact same thing.
Because they are stealing and watermarking them to show that they claimed first which they really didn't. In addition to that, they never gave credits to Kanzenshuu. So by watermarking url or some kind of image stamp of the Kanzenshuu logo, they can't claim them as their own.

I don't think it's bad to watermark your own photo/video. It's bad, however, to watermark others' photos/videos with your own URL, and not even giving a credit to the original source, thus, passing it as if it's your own.

But the crucial difference between them lies not only in how they view the world, but in how the world views them.

Superman is, and always has been, a symbol for truth, justice, and upstanding moral fortitude–a role model and leader as much as a fighter. The more down-to-earth Goku has no illusions about being responsible for maintaining social order, or for setting some kind of moral example for the entire world. Goku is simply a martial artist who’s devoted his life toward perfecting his fighting skills and other abilities. Though never shy about risking his life to save either one person or the entire world, he just doesn’t believe that the balance of the world rests in any way on his shoulders, and he has no need to shape any part of it in his image. Goku is an idealist, and believes that there is some good in everyone, but he is unconcerned with the big picture of the world…unless it has to do with some kind of fight. Politics, society, law and order don’t have much bearing on his life, but he’s a man who knows right from wrong.

This watermark discussion is getting ridiculous.

I think having a site using material from sites like Kanzenshuu, and passing them as their own by watermarking them and not giving any credit to the others is not ridiculous.

Yeah, I was starting to get that feeling; my bad. Can't delete my post so I'll just remove the image. :)

I mean, can you stop placing watermarks on the images you take from other sites in future?

Unless you're just a member of their forum or something.

Honestly, I'm a little confused by your post as well. :lol:

What if Uisu was the good guy, the one who enhances Goku's power so that he can defeat Bilus?! Wisu is not seen on Earth with Bilus in the trailer, he might have stayed on Kaio's planet to help Goku.

It kinda does confirm that they're a pair. Meaning Uisu is probably the God of Creation

Exept that Uisu's attack is called "Overture/Prelude to Destruction"

I don't think I'd want Uisu to be a good guy. A fight between Kaioshin, Kaio and Uisu would be awesome. :P

By the way, what's everyone's preference for naming the new villains? I'm personally sticking with Birusu and Uisu, but I've seen Bils and Whis, Bills and Wiss, Bilus and Wisu and just Virus for Birusu

. They're a pair probably in the sense that Uisu is Bilus's attendant (or that they're both Gods of Destruction).

I've been bouncing around a lot myself, but for the most part I'm waiting until we get something pretty official to call him. I'm already worried that when we get to the dub, I'll have a hard time using his dub name on other forums, because I'll be too used to other names. Guess I know what older fans went through now. :lol:

For now I'm trying to use 'Bils' and 'Whis' myself though.

I've bounced around as well. I like "Bills" because it looks nice, and "Whis" because if the theory that he's the God of Creation pans out, it's sort of a pun on "wish," not unlike how Shenlong creates things out of thin air through wishes.

Don't forget Whis has a line in the trailer where he asks Bills to destroy Earth.

So I doubt he's a good guy.
