lezard_valeth posted:In her defense, haven't you ever had an insecure friend that's asking you every 2 minutes "Hey, I'm not being a bother am I?" You're assuming goons have friends. Caulifla was just too focused on having a good fight because she's fem!Goku, that poo poo just happened to trigger the LSSJ form (the L stands for lesbian). She's actually closer to early DBZ Gohan than she is to Broly, really. I don't think she was there to job to Jiren either, I think Jiren got a good shot in on what was basically a Goku hate machine. DBS has been all about how fighting smart can defeat power levels, and Kale is the epitome of not fighting smart. Caulifla going "THERE'S A SUPER SAIYAN THREE????" was dope.

Broly had a hate-boner for one person, Kale has a hate-boner for like anyone that looks like it's gonna take Caulifla away from her, figuratively or literally speaking.

Nessus posted:Gohan doesn't have a timid personality at his core. He's a pretty normal kid early on. He's reluctant to be the ultimate Saiyan battle warrior and poo poo, even if he kind of has to be because the world's in danger, but he was a driving force in the early Namek stuff. He was still timid early on, but basically because he was like, 5? I just think other than her form, Broly is pretty far from what Kale ACTUALLY is. Kale doesn't hate ONE person, she hates anyone that wants to take Caulifla away from her. She's not held back by exterior forces, she's just not an actual fighter unless she's real mad. The whole "insane potential but can't tap into it willingly" just adds to me thinking Gohan too. I don't think she's gonna be a direct equivalent, but she's kinda past just being fem!Broly.

Spiritus Nox posted:Kale's alright, but Caulifla owns and I hope she gets past Super Saiyan 2 before the tournament's up. I also loving love that all the reasons R/Dragong Ball dorks are going to hate her are the exact same reasons Goku was having a loving blast fighting her. Seriously, I love how impressed he is with how easily she transforms. "Wait, wow, you figured out SSJ2 just like that! Oh wow that's rad! Think you can make it to three?" Again, Caulifla going "THERE'S A THIRD ONE???" was fuckin' dope and I hope she does it before she gets rung out. The whole Trunks fake SSJ2 form thing was cool too. She's the daughter Goku always wanted to have.

Jedah posted:To be able to watch Cabba go SSJ and then copy it immediately, and then to see Goku's SSJ2, and copy that immediately, requires a certain kind of intelligence. Maybe not traditional Bulma/Gohan research & book smarts, more like possessing strong instincts and extremely high combat intelligence. That's just Goku Brains, who's always been depicted as a fighting savant.

I like how they're depicting most universes on an even-ish power scale, where there's a couple of outstanding individuals and the others are just real good at doing their single thing/working in tandem with others. The Pride Troopers are strong, but mostly because they work really well together and have Jiren/Toppo to sweep things up, otherwise they still get destroyed by sheer power..

As I said before Granny Goku grew on me, going back to the Brazilian voices for the second movie was kinda weird.

It's kinda odd how DBZ became part of the Latino/African-American youth zeitgeist, I can't even completely explain why that was. I think it was just being at the right place at the right time with like nothing to do, so everyone watched it on TV. Even my best friend's GF, who's as far from a nerd as you can get saw the Ressurrection F poster and recognized Freeza. This is cute and good.

Dragonatrix posted:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NuXuu5nsNnY I Ran is a cool song but c'mon: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y3e2wwyjUCs Blaze Dragon posted:Are you surprised? The last Saint Seiya game had a bunch of dubs in it, which is very unusual (and greatly appreciated, it just isn't the same without the voices of my childhood, even if some were changed). I wish more franchises took that effort to appeal to us, I'd love it if, say, the next Dragon Ball game just so happened to have Mario Casteñeda and René Garcia (and everyone else) in it...but it won't happen, sigh. I'm still holding on to hope for some different voice options in DBFZ. Arcsys does character announcer voices, and even if it's DLC I could see them putting out language packs, considering how big DBZ was around the world. Too lazy to look up the quote about Knights of the Zodiac probably being the international name considering the American dub was called that, but I still think they would've rebranded it as just Saint Seiya if Knights of the Zodiac didn't stick everywhere else - which I guess kinda defeats the point of arguing it's not the international name, but it shows how popular that poo poo was outside America.

I'd say read the manga because the original series hasn't really aged gracefully. It's pretty standard 80s shonen fare but it has some cool moments (Ikki is basically Sasuke but good so everything he does is dope), but it's been a WHILE since I watched/read it. Kinda wanna do a re—read now, to be fair.

17 being the epitome of "I don't give a gently caress" fighting against Sailor Nyan was great. Vegeta reflexively dodging Ribrienne's attack because he couldn't deal with that poo poo too. But we really need more scenes with 17 and 18 being ruthlessly efficient and so tired of this stupid poo poo.

Gohan just punched a fat guy off his feet, I'unno why you all talking poo poo. Also lol at the idea that the supposed tactical mind in U7 had a strategy to defeat a gimmick that boiled down to "get hit and hit back". Gohan is more of a brute than Goku, this is the second time in Super he goes "what if I just hit back harder?". Oh, and apparently that thing is real. I wonder exactly what explanation we're gonna get for it.

a cartoon duck posted:I'm surprised the Hellzone Grenade actually worked, usually moves that result in large dust clouds are legally required to be shrugged off like nothing. I was 100% sure Piccolo would get faked out and hurt after his Hellzone Grenade too. Dragon Ball: we're surprised when non-Saiyan attacks work. Also Goku keeps getting hosed in every single fight. Almost got squeezed outta the ring, almost got tornado'd to death and now almost ate a budget Hellzone Grenade.

I don't think "people fight the literal God of Everything that obliterates realities with a thought but is also a 5-year-old child" is what DBS is gonna pull off, but I'm kinda feeling a schism between angels happening. I'm not sure if they're gonna go for anything there either, but there was a VAST difference between how furry universe and U10's angels reacted to their dudes getting erased from reality. Plus the angels feel a bit more realistic as overpowered enemies and not just audience stand-ins (I still think Zeno is basically the average kid watching Super and doesn't give a gently caress about implications because he just wants to see their pal Goku punch random jobbers).
