He also said the person who originally designed dragon ball was a girl and Toriyama just copied it from her, and GT was made by americans ,and it was designed by the girl he copied off off of .Also Toriyama didn't have anything to do with GT. UUGGGGHH

I'm sorry but that makes me want to punch something. It's funny because he believes just because a girl is Japanese she knows everything about Dragon Ball.

Son, invite him to join the Kanzenshuu community.

Because like so, he'll definitely be aware of what's Dragon Ball's real content and fake/rumours.

In a way, it makes me nostalgic for my high school days, when there were all sorts of rumors flying about. I still remember clearly the day someone in my class told me all about Goku's third son, "Goshin". I knew better by that point, so I just sat and nodded politely. Of course, being a curator of a fan community, things like that can be a headache.

GT isn't bad, just sucks ass in comparison to the other 2 animes.

What's this?

SRB2Unleashed, that kid.. He tried to fool more people on a Dragon Ball Kai SIC Radical video but hours later he removed his comment due to the feedback not being the expected.

That's one of the clips that's side-by-side another clip where the game for the participants was to spot the differences. It would be things like (and I don't remember exactly, so don't quote me on these being the actual examples) someone's clothes being a different color, wearing a hat in one and not the other, etc.

EDIT: Here's the page on Kanzentai (we haven't ported it over yet) that explains it.

For a second there I swore that was Luffy that I was hearing after Frieza spoke.

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!"

The 'manly' and 'tough' users of YouTube have commented:
Bardock totally deserved a manlier Asian voice for this episode... -___-
Please give Bardock a manly English voice
voices sound weird -__-

I don't know why but these type of comments don't affect me any more like they used to, lol. :P

Funny comments, I tell ya. :lol:

But that has nothing to do with the "Hoshi" perpetuation other than Episode of Bardock being used as "proof" more often than not.

Please stop your excessive posts about "look at this stupid thing on YouTube!" This is your final free warning about it. That is not how this community rolls, you have been warned countless times about it, and from this point forward you will start receiving strikes against your account for additional off-topic, mean-spirited remarks. Enough is enough, man. Seriously.

Should we maybe have Hoshi be put in to the Rumor guide or do you think its too recent or irrelevant enough to not be put in?

I definitely think it should. but I think it's about as relevant as AF was. I remember seeing pictures like this
Image
A long time ago the only way I could get on the internet was at school and I used to sneak and look at those kinds of pictures thinking ''Wow this looks cool! when is this coming out?'' then I later realized that AF was fake :lol: but if Hoshi is going to be put into the Rumor guide, I think there should be explanations of what footage and game intros ect the people used to fool everyone. just in case someone who believes that hoshi is real will look and say ''huh I can't believe I was lied too'' just my 2 cents :?
The Dragonboxes are like a middle aged woman who still looks good through simply taking good care of her skin and body with maybe a tiny bit of makeup while the Orange Bricks are like a middle aged woman who get's 50 tons of botox, makeup and plastic surgery in order to look younger and as a result looks even worse. ~ ringworm128

I know this is pointless to say, but I was just trying to have some people here have a good laugh, not because they're from YouTube but because of comedic purposes.

Soz, anyway.

Hey guys. I just saw this post and felt like chiming in. I wrote these two articles months ago on Dragon Ball Hoshi and Dragon Ball AF, explaining them away:

Dragon Ball Hoshi Explained

Dragon Ball AF Explained

I suppose those are my attempts at "getting rid" of Dragon Ball Hoshi.

Interestingly enough the Dragon Ball Hoshi article is the most popular post on the site, receiving over 1,000 visits a day, while others only get a fraction of it (no matter how interesting I think the others are :? ).

If you read the article and then the comments below you'll see that there are a LOT of Dragon Ball fans looking forward to a new series. Even a couple of people who called me a jerk and a liar, despite using perfectly clear logic and examples.

Several people said they would prefer to have believed the lie, rather than know the truth. I told them they can gladly plug back into the Matrix if they want to, but it's my responsibility to be honest with the fans all the same, so too bad!

Maybe if there were more articles like this out there, the Hoshi rumor would die.

All I can say, is thank goodness your article is the first result on Google when searching for "Dragon Ball Hoshi".

Also, every one of those videos linked to in your "Hoshi" article have had embedding disabled. :lol:
