  1. Impacts Goku has had on other characters?

    I think Freeza is one of the best examples. He went from ultra-arrogant that just wanted immortality to arrogant that acknowledges there may be stronger fighters than him and is prepared to face even defeat. He is still Freeza, but his character has evolved quite a bit. In DBS I think he is the...
  2. Notable differences between the anime and manga

    Well, the manga started as a by-product to promote the anime, it's just that it became successful enough and Toriyama invested enough in it that it has turned to be the real canon of DBSuper. The first two movies would've been completely skyped if it wasn't because Toriyama wanted to retcon how...
  3. Notable differences between the anime and manga

    In the manga Gohan never manages to counter Cell's kame-hame like in the anime (where Cell's kamehame gains ground against Gohan's and then Gohan regains it, and that happens multiple times), and Cell is laughting at him during the 2-3 pages the kamehame ha clash lasts. I mean, why do you think...
  4. Notable differences between the anime and manga

    In fact it's the opposite. In the anime Cell struggles against Gohan, while in the manga he is always much superior to him. There's no struggle there since Gohan's power is half of what it was and Cell immediately sees that there's no purpose in making the fight any longer but gets distracted by...
  5. Movies How would Goku from the movies fare against villains from the manga?

    Well the main difference between manga Goku and movies Goku is that movies Goku constantly had asspulls that helped him defeat his enemies (the metal cooler movie is one of the biggest WTF I've ever seen). Manga Goku was of course weaker because he had no bullshit power-ups (even in the fight...
  6. Notable differences between the anime and manga

    Anime filler really changed a lot of things in the series, and broke Toriyama's excellent writting tons of times. If you pay attention to the details, you'll see a very different Goku in the manga compared to the one in the anime as well (even in Z), and from the saiyan saga onwards the fights...
  7. Video Games Top 5 (8) Switch game recommendations

    Yeah, any game on that list can be number 1, in fact, even games not in that list (Mario & Rabbits or Mario Kart 8 for example) could be someone's number 1 and I would see it as a very valid pick-up. Regarding Toki Tori 2, believe me, it's an absolute masterpiece. I think it's very discounted...
  8. Television Peaky Blinders: mediocre writting disguissed with good production values

    Don't read the spoilers if you want to see the series, but yeah, season 1 is alright despite having a couple of problematic scenes. The big problems start with Season 2 episode 1, and they only get worse as the serie advances.
  9. Video Games Top 5 (8) Switch game recommendations

    5. Pokémon Sword & Shield With it's incredibly high number of different monsters, it's deep gameplay mechanics, it's very easily approachable gameplay design and it's undeniable charm, Pokémon is always among the top-tier RPGs of each generation. No game offers such depth while being so...
  10. Television Peaky Blinders: mediocre writting disguissed with good production values

    So this is my review of Peaky Blinders after having seen the first 5 seasons. The show starts OK and my first impression was that it was going to be "sons of anarchy in 1920 but with a slower pace", but that just holds up for the first 3-4 episodes. But like in the worst episodes of GoT...
  11. Favorite Villain

    Until the end of the Cell saga when he was given a high dose of humility, Vegeta was a villian by all meanings of the words. In terms of simply being my favourites, Kid Bu, Cell and Freeza are my top 3 and it depends on the day I have who is my favourite, but I have to say that I've never seen...
  12. How did everyone get into Dragonball?

    In my country it was a total hit, with TV rating of above 50% at its prime days. We kids stopped fighting like pussies and started doing it like in Dragon Ball XD That was at the beginning of the 90s, and I remember being a fan since I was 5 or 6 years old (93 or 94). Since they were runing the...
  13. Movies What would you consider the best Dragon Ball Z movie?

    My favourite ones are: Dragon Ball Z: Dead Zone (1989) Dragon Ball Z: The World's Strongest (1990) Dragon Ball Z: Lord Slug (1991) Dragon Ball Z: Fusion Reborn (1995) Dragon Ball Z: Battle of Gods (2013) Dragon Ball Z: Resurrection "F" (2015) From those ones, BoG it's the one I liked the less...
  14. Dragon Ball Z really Akira?

    Age matters in Dragon Ball, but as you say, it doesn't matter even a fraction of what it should in order to compensate for the loss of Ki due to lack of training that Gohan suffered. Excellent explanation as of why that video was pure nonsense. Age in DB really only matters with similarly...
  15. Dammit Gohan, DODGE! (Everything Wrong With Gohan's Character)

    That may be because Vegeta's character arc didn't end until the end of the Bu saga, and Piccolo always had that "badass" side on him that made him cool even when he was in his most "calmed" personality (though I don't like Bu saga Piccolo as much as the Cell saga one, I think Super did a good...
  16. Dammit Gohan, DODGE! (Everything Wrong With Gohan's Character)

    Gohan in the end of the Bu saga is at his peak of seriousness after the ritual of the Kaiohshin and the crisis with Bu and was more comparable to the Gohan in the end of the Cell saga. On the other hand, the Gohan from beginning of Super is like the Gohan of beginning of the Bu saga, a Gohan...
  17. Dammit Gohan, DODGE! (Everything Wrong With Gohan's Character)

    Anime DB Super is the worst XD Yeah, Vegeta is mistreated a lot. It's not like in the manga he is the protagonist, but at least there he dominated his first and third rounds against black, and in the ToP he achieved a superior form that Goku (until after this training with Merus) wasn't able to...
  18. Dammit Gohan, DODGE! (Everything Wrong With Gohan's Character)

    Well, between the 7 ages since Cell's death and the Bu saga beginnings there was no conflict. In the begginning of the Bu saga Gohan has a rage boost when Spopovich beats Videl, and the whole mystic ritual was to unlock that potential Gohan had when enraged coupled with his potential as a SSJ in...
  19. Dragon Ball Super Beerus' 70% statement. Was that anime filler?

    Well in fact the SSJB was always meant to be SSJ on top of SSJG powers, so even when the anime did a very poor job of portraying it (until the ToP saga I would say the SSGod was portrayed as a stronger form because of how badly written the anime was) it was always meant to be that way. In the...
  20. Dragon Ball Super Beerus' 70% statement. Was that anime filler?

    I totally recommend it you. It's not perfect by any means, but I enjoyed it a lot the first time I was reading it having seen the anime before. It was like discovering what Toriyama really had on mind for those arcs and nearly every single plot-point seen in the anime which I found bullshitty...
