I don't think Goku is the type to have a successor. He's one of a kind. Plus it's not really that type of story to begin with.

They could have at least given her a different hair color!

Yeah, I dislike all of the Chichi filler from DB because it messes up her return in the 23rd Budoukai. I also dislike the Maron filler in the Garlic Junior arc. It kind of messes with the idea of Kuririn finally finding a girlfriend/wife in the Cell Saga.

Nah, "Turtle Destruction Wave" is just a myth. The Kamehame-ha is named after the Hawaiian king Kamehameha. The attack is probably most accurately translated as "Kamehame Wave". The Kikouhou is more accurately translated as the Qigong Cannon/Gun. Kikou is the Japanese name for Qigong, which...

Yeah, there's a reason that the Boo arc is the final saga of the original series. Toriyama had mostly run out of ideas with the Freeza arc, and creatively there wasn't much else to do. Most of the character arcs were wrapped up in the Cell arc.

I don't see Goku and Sno clicking in any way. Goku/Chichi have better chemistry.

Imperfect and Semi are humanoid too. Perfect is just much more evolved.

Yū Yū Hakusho is a good anime, but the English dub takes far too many liberties. It's not very reliable. Maybe as more of a fun "what if" or alt-take on the original. It's definitely a product of early 2000s Funimation.

I can't tell if this is suppose to be a joke thread or not... The Woman King is a film centered on the Dahomey Kingdom's battles with the Oyo Kingdom in the 19th Century. Supposedly, its biggest controversy is that it downplays the involvement of Dahomey in the Atlantic slave trade. This has...

Selypa being Goku's mother is a rumor that has been around forever, probably because she was the only female Saiyan around at the time. They both attended Shape-shifting Kindergarten together until Oolong was expelled for stealing his teacher's panties.

Oh yes, the Funi GT dub is some of the worst dubbing they ever did. Can't recommend the original version enough.

For me Red Ribbon doesn't really pick up until after Muscle Tower, when Goku goes to West City and brings Bulma along. The General Blue arc is my favorite part of the whole saga.

The Garlic Junior saga includes numerous callbacks to the Piccolo Daimao arc, including the return of the demon race, the Super God Water, and even the bell from Karin that Goku wears to get into the Heavenly Realm. Also the outfits that Bulma and Yamcha wear are the same ones they were wearing...

Yeah, I like Yamcha. Another good Tōru Furuya character. I like the running joke about Yamcha always being broke. And I always thought that Bulma just told Trunks that Yamcha cheated, when in reality it was something totally different. Bulma was always insecure and jealous during their...

Tsuru/Crane is likely the same age as Roshi, given their time together under Mutaito. Taopaipai is actually about 30 years younger than Crane Hermit. God/Kami is also around 500, and Mister Popo over 1000. It's not really too surprising how old all of these characters are as most of them are...
