Which you can sum up as the usual childish antics, and nothing more. Broly 3: I can't believe it's not Broly, is probably the closest to Goten having something.fadeddreams5 wrote:Well, there were the Broly movies. : )dbzfan7 wrote:Again? He was relevant before? He always seemed to be just the second half of Gotenks, and nothing else. Even Trunks struggles and he has screen time. They're essentially poorly utilized child surrogate characters.fadeddreams5 wrote:Not only will Goten never be relevant again, but Toei or whoever forgot what his personality even is. He's being treated like Kid Gohan if Kid Gohan never participated in anything, and he's noticeably smarter than in DBZ. They sapped him of what little he had.
I don't hate Goten at all. I feel bad for him and Trunks being such wastes. They have gotten so much time, and yet they aren't given fucking shit. Besides present Trunks hardly doing shit now (which could change), the biggest insult for me as of late was the Googeta arc. You have Gotenks job so hard it's ridiculous, making him useless without anything redeemable. Then you have the opportunity to have Trunks help save his father by destroying that crystal, but fuck that let's give that shit to Monaka.Anime Kitten wrote:Again with the "second half of Gotenks" thing. I've never seen this much hate over a good (by which I mean affiliation) character. Jaco is irrelevant now. Monaka is irrelevant now. Hercule is unfortunately almost as relevant as Goku, Vegeta, and Bulma.
Only as Gotenks do they ever get something to be relevant for a while in the series proper. Outside that, nothing. It's unbelievable to me how much time they've had, and how little they've been built up. Not even simply for fighting, but for anything. Trunks at least has a goal, so that's one good step for him. Even if it's an unknowingly creepy goal. Goten like with most of the other irrelevant characters, doesn't really have anything driving him at all.
