SALT CURES HAM posted:I honestly grew up with the Funi dub for the most part (I very faintly remember seeing Rock the Dragon and the eyecatch at a babysitter's house when I was like 2) so that's where most of my nostalgia lies. Hell, I don't think I actually started regularly watching until Cell. I think the dub we got in the UK switched around maybe? I distinctly remember, say, the Brilliant Scientist bit and that we got a part of the Buu arc earlier than the US. I also remember Rock the Dragon alternating with a different theme song and the voices switching around every so many episodes.

Whenever they went "Welp let's go back half a dozen sagas" they usually swapped one out for the other for a while. Really annoying because I liked a lot of the Faulconer music post-Frieza and I usually only got to hear it once.

Rudoku posted:Dub bullshit. Goku realized that the monster that killed Gohan was him. Then he apologizes. No, the whole thing is in the manga. It's only one panel before he figures it out, but he does accuse Vegeta of killing Gohan Senior.

Regarding the Xenoverse game, I have not played a DBZ game in years and the trailers make it look cool as crap. However my understanding is the last DBZ game sucked, is this new game worthy of looking forward to? And more importantly can you get trained by Tien.

I see that that quoted post from Kanzenshuu mentioned the fact Oozaru forms make the saiyan ten times as strong. I've been thinking about that powerup for a while now. If Vegeta was ~16000 when he's in base form in the Saiyan saga, why didn't he just go Oozaru and wreck havoc on Freeza's crew? He was stronger than even Ginyu on Earth. I guess it would be stupid with Freeza sitting up there. But Oozaru Vegeta was the strongest character Goku and company had met until Freeza going by that logic.

Logically, Vegeta knew that even as an Oozaru, Freeza would wipe the floor with him, so it wasn't worth trying without being immortal. In actuality, Toriyama probably hadn't actually planned that far ahead.

Also, anyone faster than Vegeta would just pull off his tail the second he starts up the artificial moon.

But at least it appeared to be horrid garbage throughout its development. This time it at least looks good.

Yeah, for that strategy to work on a non-Freeza entity he would either need to either dupe them into fighting him on a planet with a moon during a full moon (and kill them before they pulled a Roshi/Piccolo and blew the moon up) or fight someone he can knock silly long enough to use the power ball, all without losing his tail. And the second he tried it Freeza would have him hunted down as a traitor immediately. The way it went down was definitely the better option - the Zenkai from nearly dying to the earthlings was enough to beat everyone short of the Ginyus without having to use a highly convoluted and easily countered strategy like that. (Hell, Zarbon gave him a freebie when they tossed him in the healing tank after the one pre-Ginyu fight he lost!)

If you mean in general, yeah, what everyone else said? If you mean on Namek, he didn't have his tail after Foodstuffs McMagicbean cut it off.

This may be relevant: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J9nFmkfuNT0 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LrCBOEpSiV8 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gaGvNc6jhnA I think the problem with the artificial moon is that you could probably you just shoot at it and it might be destroyed. Of course it was a one time thing and no one thought in doing that.

Also earlier discussion, but re: Beerus saying Goku was too weak to kill Frieza, did everyone in this thread have a stroke and forget Goku and Friend's whole secret weapon/gimmick of hiding their power levels? Like, Trunks and Goku both got theirs down to single digit levels before 'powering up, not even counting Transformations/techniques like the Kaioken.

Yes but he had just been training and had no reason to suppress it. Plus I think a God would know if it was being hidden.

I always thought that it was if you get caught off guard by a punch it doesn't really matter what power level you're at, you weren't prepaired for the hit. That's why guys like kid Gohan can get a good hit on fully powered Frieza.
