Just doodled this whilst waiting for my dinner to cook earlier today. Wanted to draw a goofy looking Vegeta with a style similar to how he looks in the Saiyan arc (short and stumpy) but with his armour from the Android arc. It ended up looking more like Toriyama's super skinny style.
Was only done with pencil and a ball point pen so whatever, I had no references so as I said, it's goofy as fuck but I wanted to share.
Yeah, I'm pretentious as fuck and signed my own doodle.

I don't think you understand the joke. Segata Sanshiro kicks the crap out of people who don't play Sega Saturn. It's part of his commercials for the Sega Saturn that aired in Japan. When I said you best play the Saturn, I meant if you don't he will show up at your house and beat you.

Power levels establish tension and drama. People who care about them (well, people who care about them in a narrative) don't care about the big numbers or the fancy explosions. If you have character A who's so much above character B, who's the main character, you're gonna be left wondering how in the hell character B, the character we're supposed to care and root for, is going to escape the situation or overcome the odds. It makes us emotionally invested.
If character B doesn't escape the situation in a believable way that's consistent with previous events, then that emotional investment is gone. It was pointless tension, pointless drama made just to suck in the viewer. It has no critical value whatsoever. The audience is left believing that the author can just create whatever scenarios he wants and what happens to the characters is decided by whatever the author wants to happen, regardless of the events that happened in the story. Which, in fairness, is what happens, but the audience wants to be fooled. The audience wants to know that the world they're following has rules. That the world they're invested in isn't going to bend to external factors that are irrelevant to them.
An author can do whatever he wants with the characters, that's not false. But the author should also have the responsibility to make sure it fits in cohesively with the other events in the narrative he has created.

Ah, well my offer still stands.
But I'm not that good at RB1.

I lost to a guy in T3 while using SSJ4 Gogeta while he used Mr. Satan and Yajirobe. It doesn't matter if you pick a worse character if your a better player.

A quick animated loop of my OC, Uzi (the daughter of Lunch and Tenshinhan), sneezing. In case you're wondering, Uzi has a split personality like her mother but instead of changing hair color, a third eye appears on her forehead.
Just wanted to animate something quick and easy tonight and this was the first thing that came to mind.

What if she gets something in her third eye and then sneezes?
Interesting concept. It's really refreshing when all I see is Saiyans left and right.

Wow... that's pretty awesome. Both the animation and character idea itself. (Also interesting that the eye is vertical rather than the rounded horizontal shape like Tenshinhan's. Interaction between that three-eyed alien blood and... whatever it is that makes Lunch change between two forms... does odd things, I guess. XD By the way, has there been anyone with a vertical third eye in Dragonball? I don't think there has, but I get the feeling that there may be a filler/movie/etc. character I'm forgetting...)
I do not possess the necessary mortal language to explain my thoughts....

That's precisely why ordinary men pursue the concept of perfection, it's infatuation. But ultimately I have to ask myself "What is the true meaning of being perfect?" and the answer I came up with was nothing. Not one thing. The truth of the matter is I despise perfection! If something is truly perfect, that's IT! The bottom line becomes there is no room for imagination! No space for intelligence or ability or improvement! Do you understand? To men of science like us, perfection is a dead end, a condition of hopelessness. Always strive to be better than anything that came before you but not perfect! Scientist's agonize over the attempt to achieve perfection! That's the kind of creatures we are! We take joy in trying to exceed our grasp, in trying to reach for something that in the end, we have to admit may in fact be unreachable!"
