How about I just make this easier?

I'm sorry for having opinions that I thought were unpopular but actually were popular, and I'm sorry for having opinions that were incredibly unpopular. I don't even know how you jags were able to get my phone number or why you thought calling me in the middle of the night was necessary, but thanks for making me realize that Kanzenshuu is better from the outside looking in as opposed to being a part of it.

Ciao

The responses to your initial posts haven't been especially negative, nor do I (or anyone else, I'd imagine) seriously believe that anyone from this site somehow stalked you to get your phone number so that they could harass you about them.

So....maybe stop being a drama queen? It's hardly the best impression to make so soon after joining.

? I know you most likely won't respond but I'am confused by this. First off this isn't about who has the most unpopular opinions but rather just sharing them. 2nd off when you did have some unpopular opinions you where question why but you didn't say.

Why didn't you answer your phone?

I just wanted to tell you that your opinions are not very unpopular... and wish you good night. :(

This is probably an unpopular one now.

I want the new characters that were mentioned that will be revealed by Universe 6 to replace everyone sans the main 4. So keep Goku, Vegeta, Whis, and Beerus. Clearly they have nothing worth while for anyone outside the 4, so we might as well just like in Z, toss aside the baggage. The humans were slowly phased out over time. Piccolo was phased out over time. The halflings have been phased out over time. So now it's time to bring the fresh blood to replace the old cast that has nowhere to go beyond "YOU GOT DIS GOKU!" We keep power players of the current run, and we get new bloods to join them who will need some fleshing out. We also remove the baggage of the others outside the 4 who have nothing to contribute.

Piccolo should stay because he's the guy who narrates the battles and gets a hard-on whenever someone powers up. Every anime needs one.

Bulma should stay because she's arguably the most useful character in the series.

Krillin should stay cause he's Krillin. C'monnnn.

Ya know that isn't a bad way of looking at things and with "F" it seemed like everyone had moved on with their lives, Krillin a cop, Gohan and Videl a family etc. It does seem their heading that way obviously it's hard for a movie to introduce new people and have them replace the ol Z fighters but the U6 arc is perfect to do this. Obviously we'll still see the ol crop from time to time so it's not like they'll vanish, I am quite on board with this idea. It'll also stop Toei crapping on Gohan at every opportunity, :P

My unpopular(?) Opinion :
1. Any DB material does NOT have to be DEE BEE ZEE (in any posible sense) to be good.
2. I really hate that part of the fandon think that DEE BEE ZEE is the absolute true image of Dragon Ball.
Dragon Ball was always a kid series and fans should stop being in denial.

I actually don't know how of an unpopular opinion this is: I DON'T LIKE THE GINYU FORCE!

Even though the Namek arc is my favorite in Z, I can't stand their portion of the story.

I don't find any of them that funny or interesting. Guldo is the only interesting one since he has the most unique abilities, but the rest are just so bland.

They were only introduced to show off how strong Goku is. That's fine, but it really brings the rest of the characters down. At least in the Nappa and Baba fights others got chances to shine. Here one member gets to wreck everyone singlehandedly with very little effort.

The whole body switch thing felt like a cheap way to put Goku out of commission (again). The whole Ginyu section of that arc feels like padding.
How do you get into the Ginyu Force? With a letter of RECOOMEndation!

I'm not sure what this "DEE BEE ZEE" term is. I've seen it used now and again around here. What's it supposed to mean?

It's basically taking a jab at people who haven't seen the first Dragon Ball anime, read the manga, and misunderstand the series as a whole. It mostly refers to(and I don't mean to offend anyone) casual dub fans who don't know any better other than explosions, power ups, super saiyans, yelling, Krillin dies, etc.
Heroes come and go, but legends are forever.

Rest in peace.

Sadly, that's every DB fan I know in real life. :(

For me in the Boo saga I really like him but in the cell saga, his one "joke" isn't that funny to me.

In the anime (Z not Kai), Satan and the announcer were really annoying and getting in the way of the fight, so I see where this is coming from. Haha. :mrgreen:

Red Ribbon Army is the most underrated arc.
