I'm finally getting into Super and have been bingeing it all week

Man, the Goku Black ark is such a pace killer. There's just a lot of nothing happening over and over. Feels like watching Buu a second time around.

what’s the deal with “pretty peas/peas and carrots”

I assume there’s some kinda cutesy idiom in Japanese and pretty peas works real nice as an English analogue, and then whoever worked on the dub decided that they had to do something incredibly dumb and translate it to something that doesn’t mean anything?

I can kind of understand if the series ends, or at least takes a break, here. I mean Goku is facing off the most powerful mortal that we know of. The only place to go is him fighting Angels or something, and he should never get that strong.

Remember that 4 universes weren’t at the tournament because their average mortal level was already real high.

That’s four universes FULL of strong dudes to punch

At the beginning of the episode, I thought to myself "Man, Goku gets all kinds of hosed up all the time and then we get these badass shirtless Goku fights where he has tatter of his gi all hanging around his waist and Vegita never gets his outfits torn up all cool like that"

And then the episode loving delivered

I’m pretty sure that was only because U9’s angel loving hated his universe. And maybe Grand Padre was just thinking of a funny joke at the wrong time? Like when you accidentally laugh during a funeral.

Universe 9 is nothing but nerds from top to bottom; I’d hate it too.

I think that's Universe 3. Universe 9 was the shithole Universe with the Trio de Dangers.

Yeah I’m calling the werewolf Bros a bunch of nerds cause they suck. Universe 3 is literal nerds but they’re also sweet death robots so it cancels out.

Considering Kale gets buff even in her normal Super Saiyan form and the other two don't, it really seems to just be a weird design decision. I put it with blue haired Trunks in that the show decided to just run with it regardless of what we would expect.

So, in playing Dragonball FighterZ, I noticed that Recoome’s sweet Austrian Arnold-inspired voice is gone and instead he just has a looney tunes retard voice

I never went back and watched the redubs or Kai, but did they really change his voice up like that? It sounds so foreign and wrong

E: ^^ Goku’s Whis outfit looks loving stupid

Vegetal should have kept his since Bulma made it special though.

You might be confusing the official dub with DBZA or the ocean dub, who both gave Recoome a not terrible voice

e: Ocean Dub (:lol: that Goku is SO BAD)

DBZA

Yeah I was definitely referencing the Ocean dub but I remember him being a bit more German-Swiss-Austrian sounding, maybe just from when his voice really bottoms out or something and associating that was Schwarzenegger

Trunks was my favorite character like as soon as I went on the internet and found out he existed and as the Frieda saga went I was more and more excited thinking that Namek was gonna wrap up any day now and Vegeta’s kid with a sword was gonna maybe show up and one time I threw a half-tantrum because I had to go grocery shopping with my mom when DBZ was on and it was like, the third episode of Goku being super saiyan BUT TRUNKS MIGHT SHOW UP IN TODAYS EPISODE

I'm watching Dragonball OG for the first time, and I'm a bit past halfway through. Tenshinhan and Yamcha's fight loving owns, and it's kind of wild to see them as top-tier guys as someone who grew up on DBZ and has always known them as jokes

I thought that episode was kinda pretty very doo doo

Nothing really happened? Just loops of Goku and Jiren throwing punches while people talk over it, for about 15 minutes

And then Goku Blanco happened and that was rad

Blaze Dragon posted:

It's not only that. Goku being trained by increasingly strong masters helped, sure, but there's also a fact that's pointed out by the series itself (by Whis right now): Goku knows how to train, Vegeta doesn't. Rather, Goku knows when to stop: he takes regular breaks instead of pushing himself when it would give no further results. Vegeta constantly tries too hard and ends up loving himself over.

Basically, it's a double thing: Goku had great masters, but even beyond punching better, Master Roshi taught him to rest (I tried searching for the Turtle School motto but couldn't find it, but you know, train well, sleep well, etc.). Vegeta trains alone until he meets Whis, and thanks to that, his training discipline is all kinds of hosed up.

Also this is completely disconnected from that but I had to share it because it is cute:
