This all started because of you bitching about Broly making it on the list. Then you doubled down when everyone called you out on itTekTheNinja wrote:No. As has beens stated, the in my opinion vague criteria being used makes it less about what they personally think, as you have even said. I don't give a fucking shit who's on the list and I seriously don't know why that's so damn hard for you to believe.jcogginsa wrote:And you are getting them.

The only reason I've droned on and on about this subject even though I'd prefer not to is because I feel the need to defend myself from the lies being said about me. This really isn't a big deal. I just stated that I didn't like this list as much as previous DBcember lists and everyone freaked the fuck out.

Re: DragonBall Z Abridged
It started when I wondered if Broly making it as high as he did as a result of their opinions being secondary to impact, since I know everyone at TFS dislikes Broly. It made me realize, but it's far from bitching about anything. Mainly confusion, followed by realization, followed by realizing that maybe their criteria might be a little flawed if a villain they hate can make it so high. If I'm wrong, and the Broly hate is greatly exaggerated for comedic effect, I'd surely like to know.jcogginsa wrote:This all started because of you bitching about Broly making it on the list.

And all I'm saying is I personally would have preferred a favorites list rather than what we're getting. Pretty simple. Stop making it more than it is.
Re: DragonBall Z Abridged
How so? An evil tyrant that had ruled the universe by fear for decades, feared and mentioned by many in the present day is a less interesting version of Vegeta? I mean, the latter dreamed to be in the same place as Freeza, as the absolute ruler of the universe.RandomGuy96 wrote:Freeza is a less interesting version of Vegeta, yet you're probably still going to rate him as #1.
If you ask me what I would prefer an OVA that tell the story of Vegeta childhood or the story of how Freeza came up, enslaved people, decimated planets to sell them, allied with the Saiyans and built his own army, well maybe you and I have different tastes of what we both find interesting.

Re: DragonBall Z Abridged
No he didn't, that's a sloppy retcon. As presented in his own arc, he was the most powerful being in the universe, the undisputed most powerful fighter of the most powerful warrior race, who only wanted for one thing: immortality, so he could enjoy an eternity of violence.Noah wrote:How so?

For Freeza, Toriyama basically copy-pasted Vegeta's role, personality, backstory, and even some of his fight choreography, then just added a higher power level and flashy but completely pointless transformations and hoped no one would notice. Freeza is the most powerful being in the universe and leader of the planet trade... because he's Freeza. And this is coming after Vegeta was supposed to be strongest in the universe and leader of the planet trade, the most gifted member of the strongest warrior race. Suddenly, there's a guy who's literally thousands of times stronger than that, because... he... just kinda is. And he's also referred to as nobility, and he's also petty and lazy as hell, and he's also incredibly sadistic, and he also goes into drama queen mode the second someone causes him pain, and he also has a scene with Goku where he scoffs at the idea of hard work mattering next to birth right, and he also has Kaio being scared of him and warning Goku that he might not win against him, and he also has henchmen who act and dress the same way as Vegeta's, and he also tries to ragequit by blowing up the planet... the list goes on.

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.

Holy shit. This is honestly infuriating. TekTheNinja has made it pretty clear that he dislikes the fact Broly only there, because of his "impact" and not because TFS likes. It's that fucking simple.

Honestly, let's just move on please and talk about relevant stuff. I'm sick of talking about this and I'm sure everyone else is sick of it too. It's an unnecessary conversation at this point and really has been for a while. I never meant to start a flame war, so let's just get back to discussing abridged and TFS and stuff.Soppa Saia People wrote:jcogginsa wrote:This all started because of you bitching about Broly making it on the list.

That's why he jumped on the mindboggingly stupid "There should be no criteria" thing, to hide the fact that he's just whining

No. It really doesn't. JFC, Why do you even fucking care ? He doesn't like the fact it's basically a popularity contest, why do you have to be a dick about it ?

Has there been a confirmation on who's voicing Broly, or is that a surprise?
Re: DragonBall Z Abridged
I apologize for being too harsh.

Back to speculation, I'm wondering if Raditz will be on the list. He's goku's brother, but not much came of that. On the other hand, he did herald the arrival of the saiyans
