I figure in this case it's not agreeing with his philosophy, not literally disbelieving the Kai's existence. Still kind of a hilarious translation though.

seiferguy posted:Let's look at how all the Saiyans went SSJ: Tends to be, but with even a bit of discipline and training you learn how to control it, regularly access it, and refine it. I imagine it's something straddling the line between an innate ability and a technique. Imagine if you never punched someone before. Then one day you got really upset, lashed out, and clubbed someone with your fist. That's what Goku did on Namek, and in the Hyperbolic Time Chamber he and Gohan refined it so they didn't have to throw wild, tear-stained haymakers every time they punched.

lezard_valeth posted:Red God is def stronger than Blue. That actually makes a disturbing amount of sense. Last time, Goku wasn't consciously holding onto that feeling. This time, he already knows what to expect and is preparing himself to hold his godhood close in any way he can. Going God isn't the power up. It's the transformation sequence. Also, another thing I noticed. Both "I can't get no satisfaction" and "Gonna take the challenge of God" are sung with basically the same timing and cadence, with the latter line on a downswing and the former on an upswing. I like that this implies that Goku has taken the challenge of the gods, and now he's goddamn bored of it. The Bee fucked around with this message at 18:48 on Aug 12, 2017 |

Especially when Cyborg Frieza was basically just Frieza wearing fancy prosthetics, since he can basically stay alive through anything short of atomization. Cyborg Frieza and the Androids are two very different cups of coffee. Also, yeah, with Kai and Super, at the very least Toei and Toriyama have been showing that some filler (Gregory, Bardock) is more legit in their canon than other filler (Garlic Jr, Broly).

extra row of teeth posted:Yeah I don't know what it is about DBS Roshi but his perv side feels less...innocent? Playful? Whatever and much more sinister and rapey. Even in Dragonball it wasn't as bad, and that show had Bulma flashing him while underage and Roshi sneaking into the bathroom while Bulma was on the toilet. I think it's because in Dragonball and Z, he always got his comeuppance. In Super, there's either no karmic payback or not enough. The framing doesn't help either. I imagine if Roshi appeared in the bathroom door on fire while Bulma cowered and screamed in the corner, the scene would've felt way different.

I'm really hoping the dub just stresses the parts where he mentions giving earthly pleasure in favor of power and tranquility, because that's a cool old master speech. Just make him regularly intimidating, and not . . . That.

If any others from Super, Hit and Merged Zamasu seem like the only ones I'd expect. Beyond that, Gotenks for sure, hopefully Satan, Saiyaman, and Ginyu.

^ Nice. Considering 16 is in, I could see Nappa making it as well. Hell, if we want a main villain and minion from each saga (sorta like Cell and Androids), I could see Nappa repping the Saiyan Saga, Ginyu representing the Frieza saga, and Dabura or another Buu form repping the Buu saga.

I think we're really overstating the assist and main fighter here. It'd really dilute, say, 18 and 17 if every other character put in had some sort of assistant gimmick. Especially for ones not historically paired to a literal extent like the Androids, or Black and Zamasu. Even then, in the latter I see Merged Zamasu being more likely.

Kild posted:Black + Zamasu, Goten + Trunks, Burter + Jeice are the only ones that would fit imo. In each of those cases I feel like there are better options, like Merged Zamasu, Gotenks, and Ginyu with the entire Force as temporarily called-in assists. Still agree that those are the best options for full-on teams, though.

canoshiz posted:FYI this is basically never true (and the Fox only meme especially so) if you are not a top level player of a game. Tiers do not apply to 99% of the players of a game and of all the "important" things that make up a good competitive game, balance alone is one of the least important despite common perception. As long as the DBFZ is fun to play mechanically and has numerous interesting matchups and varied team compositions to provide depth, it should be a great game. I'd argue it's a little more complex, depending on how much of a tier list is skill ceilings and how much is skill floors. At casual play, a high floor character is going to seem really "cheap" compared to others. For example, Meta Knight was pretty much an overpowered scourge at any tier level, but he's kind of an outlier in that regard.

Didn't Ox King used to have a literal mountain of loot? Something like that might've lasted for generations, yet it only took almost 20 years of Saiyan appetite to completely bankrupt them. (Also including Gohan and Goten here) She probably has at least 75% of that money saved up for Gohan and Goten going to college, lets be real.

TrilliontonNixon posted:I will say that Freeza has been acting a little strange since being revived again. In Resurrection F he was totally his old Namek era self, but now he seems sort of subdued I guess? Usually he acts like a spoiled brat, and can hardly go five minutes without losing his temper, but now he seems to be taking everything in stride. Even in this latest episode he appeared to be untroubled by the fact that Goku had surpassed him again. Vegeta, who's been putting up with this sort of thing for years now had more of a reaction than he did. At this point, he's done everything possible to stop Goku. Goku told him "dude if you took things in stride and didn't rush for revenge 4 months after freshly learning a new form maybe you'd put up more of a fight." I think Frieza's been taking that advice seriously. Besides, Frieza was always cool and collected on Namek before being on the receiving end of a bad situation. So far, he hasn't been on that receiving end yet. He'll likely tantrum once his house of cards collapses.

extra row of teeth posted:To be fair it's more than just her weight, I believe they designed her to be comically ugly or at least uncomfortable looking and it's not just "lol fat". Like the camera is loving obsessed with her nose for some reason, it started with that extreme close up into her nostril in that earlier ToP episode and has kept happening to smaller degrees. That's true. Also the fact that she looks like a Teletubby. And I think the contrast between magical girl glamor and goofy, comedic design makes more sense than "ha ha fat," even if the latter is unfortunately part of the former. I don't get why people seem so vehemently against her as a character, though. Bloodly outlined like at least 3 reasons why so far she's been fun and interesting. I loved her ranting at an increasingly unamused Jiren.
