Do you guys find canon Hell pretty scary?

Post by DBZfan2015 » Mon Sep 05, 2016 6:04 pm

Imagine being stuck in a cocoon for all eternity. You can't break out of it no matter how powerful you are. In filler Hell, you and the other villains can overpower the incompetent ogres, and possibly escape that place. You're screwed in canon Hell unless someone wishes you back to life. I think I rather disappear out of existence than be constantly harassed by teddy bears and fairies lol.

Since the teddy bears and cute fairies are things Frieza hate, does that mean Roshi and Oolong will be surrounded by beautiful women in skimpy outfits in Heaven?

No. It's ridiculous how utterly cute it is.

Purgatory in Dragon Ball seems to be tailored towards the individual. As a being of pure evil, Freeza was surrounded by teddy bears and fairies and joy and love all the time. The joke is that he hates all that stuff more than anything else because he is evil.

A more "normal" bad person would probably see more typical things, like scary demons and fire.

...Then yeah, canon hell sounds like a worst time.

Roshi would see naked men.

Goku would see food being burned in front of him before he could eat it.

Chichi would see Gohan and Goten pissing on their textbooks

Vegeta would see himself constantly losing to Goku

Honestly, I'd imagine Frieza's hell being him having to rewatch himself getting beaten by SSJs over and over, all while the saiyans he killed laugh at him.

Frieza's actual hell in the anime seems more tailored to someone like Dabura. Canon hell probably is just fairies and teddy bears surrounding you while you are trapped in a cocoon.

Would be neat if all the hells in DB were canon though. Like, maybe the villains are initially transported to the area where they hang with other villains and are guarded by the ogres--their last moments of freedom. Then, after some time, their bodies deteriorate into soul clouds. The clouds are then transported into the chambers we see in Fusion Reborn, which both trap the souls in the cocoon hell from RF and begins to cleanse them before they are reincarnated into new beings.
"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

That sounds like a serious Toei idea.

The happiness and teddy bears being what Freeza hates the most is a comical Toriyama idea. Personally I find it far more unique and original than the predictable "watching his defeat" idea, and therefore more interesting.

I theorize that that particular version of Hell was for Freeza. If Gohan would somehow end up in Hell, I'd imagine he'd be in a cocoon with a bunch of murderers running around him.

Gohan's hell is people throwing stuff he cannot dodge.

Goku's hell would be going to college and major in something not related to physical activity, catch up on all the vaccinations he's missed over the years, and become the best stay at home dad he could possibly be while also going on a diet.

Goku's hell is him being ordered by a kafkian judge to undertake eternal anger managment classes for his "unnatural aggresive behaviour".

Hell is incredibly non-scary and I don't think I'd care in the slightest if I went there and it's that good.

I'd imagine that Goku Black and Zamasu's version of canon Hell would be them in Frieza's shoes while asleep, but as soon as they wake up, the Para Brothers would be doing the Para Para Boogie on them until they fall asleep once again.

P. S. They would always be dreaming about a random villain they heard or otherwise seen with their own eyes forcing them to be dancing too!
