Anyone else disappointed that there's little to no nudity in DBS?

Post by Dragon Ball Gus » Sat Apr 08, 2017 12:15 pm

Back in Dragon Ball, Dragon Ball Z, and to a certain extend, Dragon Ball GT (specifically Dragon Ball), there was a crap ton of nudity. From showing Goku and Gohan's penis, to showing some of Bulma's tits, to a lot of butt shots. Then we move on to Dragon Ball Super, and we barely see any of it. The only type of nudity we see is Bulma in a towel two times and we didn't see any of her private parts and a butt shot from Barry Karn after he turns back into human in Episode 74. And that's it. No real fan service moments though, and I mean real fan service, not Dragon Ball's fan service, like transformations. Absolutely no boob shots. And that's very disappointing. And before anyone say "Toei can't draw nudity anymore." No, that's BS! I've seen nudity in some of their other recent shows. I'll show you guys an example: Image
This shot is Opening 3 of Sailor Moon Crystal, where they animated Hotaru and Chibiusa naked in a rose garden. So yeah, they can still draw nudity. So what do you guys think, are you disappointed that there's barely or are you like "Nah, I don't like nudity anyway"?

"Nah, I don't like nudity anyway"
Hahaha :lol: :lol:
I don't think anyone would say that, unless they a robot, who dosen't like nudity? You are nude right now inside your clothes..

Unless you wanna say "I don't like nudity in the shows I watch", then its fine..

To answer the question, we barely get blood, that's the same reason we don't get much "fanservice"

Hopefully if the tournament gets too intense Vegeta, Goku and maybe Gohan, Piccolo and Tien will remove their shirts or get them blasted off.

That would be as far as it goes though.

Yes, I do miss the nudity. Illustrated nudity gives a sense of a work being personal to the creator, something bare and open.

No not at all. One of the best things about Dragon Ball compared to many other shonen anime titles like Fairy Tail is that it doesn't constantly pander to the prepubescent kids.

Yep. Correct me if I'm wrong, but we've yet to see a shot of shirtless Gokuu. Nevermind Blooma or any kind of female fanservice moments. The producers playing it safe has always irritated me.

Battle damage like when Goku fought Frieza on Namek is as far they will most likely go

But any Nudity involved with Female Characters in Super is a nope cause they don't want compliments from parents

There's a scene with her on a bath towel when Goku's ki was out of control.
I'm just a DB fan that's in the grey area that exists between an Hardcore Fanboy and a Casual :P

I've seen more of Goku's dong than I ever wanted to. :thumbdown:

To me, more...tasteful fanservice like Bulma in the bath towel is a lot better than straight up nudity.

Huh, it must've been like nothing cause I don't remember and I don't forget those moments easily. :lol:

Blooma trying to seduce Zamasu could've been a great scene, but they completely fucked that up. No sense of eroticism, standard visuals and Tsuru's flat acting made that one hell of a boring seduction attempts I've ever seen.

It's time to focus on baby vagina

Nah, I don't like nudity in shows. It just wastes time on things I could see elsewhere.

I made a bet with Alee9977 that Vegeta won't be beaten quickly by an opponent. If I lose, I switch my avatar to Vegeta getting beat by hit. If I win, he switches it to Vegeta holding Black by his hair. This will last a month.

Too many anime have been ruined by fanservice.

Dragon Ball Z, Naruto, Death Note, Attack on Titan and One Punch Man some of the more successful series in the west, no coincidence don't have that at all.

The 11 or 12 year old Japanese virgin's probably enjoy every single female character getting their huge tits out constantly but thankfully it isn't a western thing.

Blood sure but no don't bring the series down by pandering.

On topic tho. Super doesn't need fan service like that, but battle damage would be greatly appreciated, seriously the most we've seen is Vegeta's bare nipple when half of his armor got blasted by Zamasu :lol:

Don't watch anime for nudity, ecchi, or anything of that sort stuff, so I don't care.

I mean if I want nudity in the sense of boobies etc then there is porn and hentai or shows like DxD Valkriye Mermaid etc for that but as others have said in the sense of battle damage that's definitely missed. Trunks special showed that that it can still work well in modern times. Ajay recently showed CD for shirtless Goku from U6 arc for SSGSSKK, all though it turned out to be only for the animators to know about muscles etc it still looked hella cool.

With the hairless primed and proper nipple, I doubt him burning the man boobs was an accident either
