1. How the dragonballs looked.
2. "Goku"'s gi. Looks cool honestly.
3. Grandpa Gohan
Point is. I think both movies are shit. Please don't try to make me choose which one I would prefer to watch. I choose neither.

The dragon balls are dark orange with yellow stars. They don't look right at all. Goku's Gi looks incredibly stupid, I don't see how anyone can like that thing

I think they look nice. Not a big deal in my opinion. I'm sure you like some things that the majority doesn't like.TheMightyOzaru wrote:The dragon balls are dark orange with yellow stars. They don't look right at all. Goku's Gi looks incredibly stupid, I don't see how anyone can like that thing.

Re: Has Toriyama ever said his true feelings about GT?
Doesn't blasphemous means ungodly or something like that? Also I NEVER SAID DBE > BoG. I said both were shit IMHO. Unless you're referring to Helv then yes I kinda agree. Since I can't see how someone can say DBE > BoG.TheMightyOzaru wrote:In some cases sure, but preferring DBE to BoZ is blasphemousTheGmGoken wrote:I think they look nice. Not a big deal in my opinion.

Opps. Still. Can't see how anyone cold say that. I respect all opinions though. Just can't see someone saying that without laughing.TheMightyOzaru wrote:Rocketman said that, not hleV.TheGmGoken wrote:Unless you're referring to Helv then yes I kinda agree.

Re: Has Toriyama ever said his true feelings about GT?
I am surprised by the BoG hate. How could you hate it that much. Just think of it as Dragonball. It was definitely better than previous movies, so if you liked those, why not this one. Just because it didn't follow the movie formula? That is played out.

It was faaaaaaaaaaaar better than any of the 13 Z films as far as I'm concerned. Beers really sold it for me.

Re: Has Toriyama ever said his true feelings about GT?
BoG may have some mistakes but I think we can not compare it with the big DBE shit.
Re: Has Toriyama ever said his true feelings about GT?
I think BOG was good. I have issues with it but with most movies it's best to ignore them as they just get in the way.
Why Dragon Ball Consistency in something such as power levels matter!

Re: Has Toriyama ever said his true feelings about GT?
Fun story: while picking up my grandpa from the Glenner Memory Care Center, I had to sign him out with the billboard containing the patients. It had his first name and first letter of his last name, Daniel N., written there. I noticed that, oddly enough, someone named "Akira T." was also a patient there, or that at least he attended. Coincidence!?

...well, yes, but a funny one.

Herms wrote:The fact that the ridiculous power inflation is presented so earnestly makes me just roll my eyes and snicker. Like with Freeza, where he starts off over 10 times stronger than all his henchmen except Ginyu (because...well, just because), then we find out he can transform and get even more powerful, and then he reveals he can transform two more times, before finally coming out with the fact that he hasn't even been using anywhere near 50% of his power. Oh, and he can survive in the vacuum of space. All this stuff is just presented as the way Freeza is, without even an attempt at rationalizing it, yet the tone dictates we're supposed to take all this silly grasping at straws as thrilling danger. So I guess I don't really take the power inflation in the Boo arc seriously, but I don't take the power inflation in earlier arcs seriously either, so there's no net loss of seriousness. I think a silly story presented as serious is harder to accept than a silly story presented as silly.

Re: Has Toriyama ever said his true feelings about GT?
I don't get the BOG hate either. Honestly, I've thought most of the 13 DBZ movies were inconsistent as shit and overall kinda dopey. I lot of people love Movie 9, but I thought the whole tournament on an island with a bunch of weird themed areas just to relive the SSJ2 Gohan stuff again was kinda lame. It's good, but that always irked me a little.
Kinda the same deal with some parts of BOG, like the prizes in Bulma's bingo thing. Or how about Movie 13 and the whole thing about how Trunks may have received the sword from Tapion to grow up and use it against Freeza. That couldn't have happened in this timeline, so it was an odd way to end it to infer that at the end. BOG has it's inconsistencies as well, what with Gohan able to go SSJ for some reason and all that.
What saves it for me, is the new characters... specifically Bills/Beers, who I think is one of the more interesting characters Toriyama has come up with, ever. I like how it feels like it could have been another arc and I thought some things were clever, like King Kai's planet being the size it was because of Bills getting upset. It had all the markings of some classic DBZ with some typical DBZ movie bs. But out of all the movies, it is probably the best. Movie 12 is the only one that I'd say would give it a run for it's money.

You understand we're talking about Dragon Ball, right? Where absurdity is the norm?
I fail to see why more absurdity is necessarily bad.

Re: Has Toriyama ever said his true feelings about GT?
I think he doesn't care actually. Same with Kurumada and Saint Seiya Omega. These spin-off series happen and vanish later.
BTW. GT is quite popular as DBE wasn't, why saying anything bad on which you helped to create (even tough with little involvement) and have mony from it? You will be against yourself and will piss off your payers only.
