Dropped plots?

I agree, lets set it out as an equation:
SSJ3 Goku < Kid Buu
SSJ Vegetto > Gohan Super Buu
Kid Buu ? Gohan Super Buu
SSJ Vegetto ? SSJ3 Goku

Solveable, very much. But I'm not going any further than that... just wanted to point it out... anyway!

You're all pervs.

You should come to chat some time. (or read quotes!) We're much worse in there.

*ehem*

As for dropped plots... This isn't a manga plot, but it is something the anime did. They never did say just what the hell happened to all the people on that mirrored space ship after Freeza was defeated.

Who cares about a bunch of fi-- just kidding!

I think Tenshinhan is a dropped plot. He had so much potential, awesomeness, and various other amazing characteristics (and pwnage techniques) only to end up...having very little importance once the Z-era set in.

Speaking of Saiyajin girls... What's with Bra? We never see her train, but in the Baby Saga she seems to have a fair amount of power, and we never see her fight. Wha?

I agree, and I wonder how the story would have developed if the saiyans or any other unearthly beings were never introduced.

She'd probably worry about breaking a nail.

It probably would have ended fairly soon after the 23'rd Tenka'ichi Budokai...sadly. Still, a lot more could have been done with the development of the "lesser" fighters of the Z-era. But, I can't get mad at Toriyama-sensei because he worked his tail off already.

However, it would have made much better Filler than a lot of the crap Toei Animation came up with. They could have made side story arcs about these lesser fighters in some form or another, lasting a few episodes, and not sucking...like the massive "Yamcha vs. Olibu" plothole, which was a...4 minute filler.

Thus ending...that post...

It could have kept going another way with different origins for Goku that would have stopped his uber power growth during Z. What would be cool is if little 'side mangas' would come out from varrious points and times during the Z series era where the Human fighters are the ones dealing with the issues. Just to give them something...

And, er, as for Olibu... he wasn't powered up yet... ya.... That's one of the few filler bits you can find some sort of way around any issues it causes.

Kind of like the "Trunks: The Story" chapter Toriyama-sensei did for Mirai Trunks origins...that would have been fantastic. I hate thinking of good idea's 15 years after-the-fact, when it's obviously too late

And, er, as for Olibu... he wasn't powered up yet... ya.... That's one of the few filler bits you can find some sort of way around any issues it causes.

Maybe the "coin landed on its edge" that day.
