The Grand Kanzenshuu DB: Super User Ratings Thread

Post by LuckyCat » Wed Oct 28, 2015 12:05 pm

Weekly, we see TV popularity ratings from Japan for Dragon Ball Super, but there's nothing to gauge the quality of each episode. People who may want to sample Super will want to see what episodes to watch, and perhaps which to avoid. So I've created a ratings poll for Kanzenshuu:

RATE THIS WEEK'S EPISODE HERE!

Rate Previous Episodes!

Episodes are listed using the English titles. If you have the time, and have seen an episode or all episodes, please rate them on a scale of 1 to 10. If you haven't seen all the episodes, please leave a "5" as neutral. You can also see the results here:

SEE RESULTS!
SEE LATER EPISODE RESULTS

Please only vote once per episode, and don't put the voting links on other sites because this is a Kanzenshuu poll.

With all that, how do you think each episode fared so far? :thumbup: :thumbdown:

I gave episode 5 a 10/10.
"Dragon Ball once became a thing of the past to me, but after that, I got angry about the live action movie, re-wrote an entire movie script, and now I'm complaining about the quality of the new TV anime. It seems Dragon Ball has grown on me so much that I can't leave it alone." - Akira Toriyama on Dragon Ball Super

I voted. Here's my personal ratings for each episode so far:

#001 - 6/10
#002 - 8/10
#003 - 6/10
#004 - 5/10
#005 - 3/10
#006 - 10/10
#007 - 7/10
#008 - 3/10
#009 - 6/10
#010 - 7/10
#011 - 10/10
#012 - 3/10
#013 - 7/10
#014 - 8/10
#015 - 5/10
#016 - 8/10

It's very inconsistent, but it's in the 6-7/10 range as a whole for now. When it's bad, man, is it bad. But when it's at its best, it's absolutely fantastic. It's the same feeling I get while re-watching any of the other series.

The last episode is very high, the first episodes will suffer because people don't remember them clearly. 50 votes or more and we should be getting a better picture.

Nice initiative LuckyCat.

The first reply doesn't inspire confidence that people are going to vote appropriately.

I was honest about every episode.

Episode 5 is just...legendary, you know? Whenever people look back at this series, the first thing that will come to mind is, "do you remember episode 5? What a trip THAT was. ROFLMAO."

Goku didn't die in GT. The show sucked him off so much, it was impossible to keep him in the world of the living, so he ascended beyond mortality.

I always side eye the people who say "Now my kids/today's kids can experience what I did as a child!" Nigga, who gives a fuck about your childhood? You're an adult now and it was at least 15 years ago. Let the kids have their own experience instead of picking at a corpse.

16, 14, 2, 1, 11, 13, 15 are the episodes I find good in super so far (with what I think's the next best). They're in my opinion all between 7 - 9

Nice to see the two "Vegeta and Whis"-centric episodes in first place.

If you hover over the results, you can see a vote breakdown and determine what votes were outliers. It's not perfect, but it's pretty good for a free site.

I mean if people keep bringing it up over and over again while repeating the same generic jokes, of course nobodies going to forget about it. I personally don't even care about that episode anymore.
Heroes come and go, but legends are forever.

60.

Rest in peace.

I voted for Episode 1 and then just hit submit. Does that mean I accidentally gave every other episode a zero?

The highest rating for an episode of Super I gave in that survey was EP16, and it seems to show as it has the highest average so far.

Overall it's been average which is disappointing considering it's a sequel to one of the most influential anime/manga ever made.
July 9th 2018 will be remembered as the day Broly became canon.

Being influential doesn't mean it was any good.

It's also one of the most deeply flawed, and in many areas, especially with the anime, has not aged well.

DBZ has aged better than pretty much every action anime of the '80s-'90s I can think of. Even then, we have Kai.

That fact that Kai even exists just shows how bad DBZ has aged in many areas. Plus, there are several action anime from the 80s and 90s that have aged better than Dragon Ball has. YuYu Hakusho, Saint Seiya and Rurouni Kenshin come to mind

There's also Cowboy Bebop, Trigun, Neon Genesis Evangelion (which could be argued as to whether or not it's an "action" anime, but there's a good deal of action in it), and so on that come to mind. Dragon Ball really isn't all that special, especially not any of its anime adaptations.

Take out Saint Seiya and you'd certainly have a point.
