Seriously, guys? Just let them be young fans instead of trying to troll them and "correct" them.
Yamcha: Do you remember the spell to release him - do you know all the words?
Bulma: Of course! I'm not gonna pull a Frieza and screw it up!
Master Roshi: Bulma, I think Frieza failed because he wore too many clothes!

Wasn't the point of the thread to comment on how precious and cute ignorant newcomers are, rather than bash them?

It's the people who've been in the fandom for years and remain clueless that I have trouble with. These kids are just adorable.

But he's also a fighter, through and through [...] he fight until he has, in no uncertain terms, beaten his enemy on terms they can both acknowledge. He doesn't want to kill anyone, or even prove that he can win... he just wants to know he can. He's an ineffably charming bastard who's manly leanings were really incendental, and yes, the fact that he was voiced by a squeaky woman made the combination perhaps all the more charming.

I just saw this post which this guy was all like "i know everything about DBZ so just ask me" so i gave him 7 questions to answer. Some in universe and some real world. For example, one was, "What was the name of the 2nd and more known host of the TV block which made DBZ popular in the US?", which would be TOM of Toonami. Another was, "Who was the Legendary Super Saiyan of DBZ movie 8?" and the next asked the name of said Super Saiyan's Father. No correcting, just simple questions for the kids to answer.
"Perfect" is the enemy of the good. True for Cell and true for real life.
Don't forget to slow down and enjoy yourself.

Edit: Y'know what...nevermind. You're a really cool guy, being able to outsmart children.I hope you're like...12 so you have some sort of excuse for this.

Holy hell you even answered the 8 year old kids quizzes with added "HEH DUB FANS" remarks tossed in. N-no more internet forums for me for awhile after this.

So what if I happened to be 13 and decided to set them straight? I'm not going to, of course, but would it still be bad, if I'm close to their age group, to correct them? It's not as if it'd be the adult trolling on the kids. The only difference is my information is far more vast and accurate (and, you know, good grammatical skills). Once again, not going to, but its an interesting thought.

Well I don't want to shit up this thread any further but there's a difference between a 13 year old correcting a bunch of 7,8,9 year olds and some 18,19,20 year old barging in and lording his knowledge in front of a bunch of kids and then telling his peers "OH MAN I TOTALLY TORMENTED A KID WHO THOUGHT HE KNEW ABOUT DRAGONBALL! I BLEW ALL OF THEIR MINDS EPIC 'luls'!" like he has actually accomplished something. It's especially worse since everyone told him to chill out and just enjoy the kids excitement, literally the only person that felt the need to be a complete sperger.The younger you are the more you can get away with that kind of thing but you should know better after a certain point.

As I was saying though I'll probably get a "NO YOU ARE WRONG SIR!" response in the not so distant future but then I want to end this. I don't want to mess up Cipher's thread any further with my negative vibes.

I just hope nobody over the age of 14 goes to those Boards to show off what they know about DBZ. That would be pathetic. I can just see some 20 year old sitting at home going, "NO! NO! NO! NO! NO! THESE KIDS ARE STOOOOPID!!!"
This sums what I was saying up pretty quickly. We have a man among us who can clearly see the future.

I saw a thread on there recently where the kids were super bummed out and angry about having to wait for more Kai due to some event Nicktoons is having. It's adorable and all I could think about was about that large gap between episodes during the Saban days. (Of course this isn't nearly as bad.)

Also I'm surprised how many girls are crushing on Vegeta, is there some sort of sexy appeal I'm missing from a pissed off battle worn midget? :lol:

I sure hope these kids are able to enjoy the Boo saga.

Well, Vegeta does have a huge fangirl-base.

Huh, I didn't know that. We must be picturing real life Vegeta two very different ways if that's the case.

Well, I'm a straight guy, so I'm not picturing Vegeta any other way than what's in the manga/anime. :) But yeah, he has a huge fangirl-base. After all, he's one of the main characters and generally the strongest after Goku.

I bet their Boo Saga would consist of 'WOO vegeta's evil again! What is this 'Buu' thing? Wooo they fused!' and of course fire up the old super vs kid and ssj3 vs mystic debates.
Simian upstart...none surpass me. No one even comes close! BURN THIS INTO YOUR MIND! I am emperor of the universe. The likes of you are only fit to grovel at my feet. Or better still...to be crushed...LIKE AN INSECT AT THE WHIM OF YOUR MASTER!

- Freeza, DBZ Kai.

her two oldest boys said, "I don't like Dragon Ball Z Kai, I think it's weird." Really made me sad. They look up to me and always want me to play with them, ride bikes or throw the football around when I come back home so I tried to tell them that DBZ was on TV every day after school when I was their age and sometimes I would even ditch football practice to come home and watch it. But it didn't work. I figure I'll try again in a couple years when they're older.
Kids are just not into Dragon Ball. I have not seen anyone talk about Dragon Ball in my town since GT ended in 2005. Kids are into Ben 10, and Bakugan now. Sorry but Dragon Ball has been dead in the US since 2004 or 2005, they still make games due to the fans keep on buying them.

Uhhhh.....Did you just skip every post in this thread? The whole point was to talk about the naive, new fans of Dragon Ball. We're seeing that kids are actually watching DB Kai and discussing on the Nick message boards.

So because you haven't seen any kids talk about it, it means no kids are watching it?
