cell made seven

he wanted an even match and the z-fighters had a crew of 8 (goku, gohan, piccolo, vegeta, yamcha, tien, krillin, trunks), so he made seven. the anime had gohan kill 8. one of them could have used tien's duplicate move, though.

lol except there's nothing to suggest this whatsoever

it's pretty clear they just hosed up and miscounted

You could also call it the Namek saga.

It's kind of weird to think about what his last significant win was. Wasn't it Pui Pui? That guy barely even counts as a fight. Before that was what, Android 19? and before that it was Zarbon? Vegeta never really got to do very much.

eh i count him steamrolling imperfect cell, he won that fight by a mile it's just he's a goddamn retard

dunno why trunks wasn't just like yo dad how bout you flatten this fool then fight kakkarot when he pops out of the time chamber in a bit

So Vegeta's character in the androids/cell arc really bugs me. It seems like Toriyama himself was like "what is Vegeta's personality again? Oh yeah, he's obsessed with challenging strong guys and beating them!" and then he went from there. When I watch the Saiyan and Namek episodes it's like I'm seeing a totally different character. I'll explain.

I wonder if it could be explained as the influence of the Super Saiyan form? It makes Goku and Gohan angry, it makes Vegeta overwhelmingly stupid. :haw:

I don't think they'll do the newer movies. They're pretty close with the dubbing company now.

I believe they mentioned in a podcast or something they finally managed to make a few pennies on T Shirt sales and the like. Not a lot, but enough that they can't honestly say they're "non profit" anymore.

Even if TFS somehow got the blessing to do the new movies, it would take like 10 years before they come close to doing them considering they're doing the movies in order. The last movie they did was Revenge of Cooler. They have 8 more movies to go before reaching Battle of Gods, not including History of Trunks.

Also Battle of Gods is the movie that feels the most like DBZA to begin with, doing there own version of it would kind of lose some of the impact.

Yeah I mean, what jokes would they add? Beerus gives even less of a poo poo? The only thing I can see having any real potential is the Super Saiyan God sequence.

They did Episode of Bardock which was pretty recent in coming out.

I think they meant it in the general "big company will kick the poo poo out of us if we upload a dub of their hot new movie not long out of theaters".

Edit: Episode of Bardock was a short special made to promote an arcade game. Completely different then a theatrical movie they need you to buy tickets for or buy the Blu Ray.

Well it just feels like Dragon Ball more than Z, but yeah same nonsense, I think they mostly mentioned that they wouldn't even know how to go about it. Which is fair.

Yet where is that woman now? Tell me, in what heave does she reside? None of them. Because no God bothered to listen or care. If that is what you think it means to be a God, then you and all your teachings are welcome to do as that poor women did. And vanish from these realms forever.
So, out and out, is he a Super Frost Demon? Like, any news if that is the angle they're going for or is the gold color just because we associate golden transformations as a big deal?

Personally, I'm a little underwhelmed. It's not horrible and looks loads better than that fake one people where throwing about a while back, but it just feels a bit simple. But, then again, that's Toriyama, isn't it? I mean going Super Sayian is just your hair going blonde and, maybe, standing up (some people have to go SS2 before it stands up)? Draw stuff simple so it's not a pain in the arse to draw the comic every week?

Edit: Cooler's 5th form is non-canon and did look a little out of place, but it did give the whole "big deal" vibe. But, then again, Toryiama likes his villian's final form to be something that isn't visually threatening. Since Freeza is already in not threatening form, the move had to be lateral unlike the other transformations.

I hate the color scheme and it looks too much like his normal fourth form. He should look more badass, like Cooler's 5th. It'd be cool if Toriyama wrote everything and let whoever designed for the other movies come up with stuff like this.
