Man I never really noticed before, but Gohan sure is super skinny now in Super.

New episode is really good though. And it looks like the anime will finally introduce Champa next week.

Everyone is way way skinnier in Super/BoG-era. It's a little odd

Gohan looked fairly beefy in BoG but come RF he looks Adventure Time-esque with his arms. Being a good dad and also a huge science nerd gets in the way of training.

I didn't think it was very good, they're trying way too hard to be smart, and to callback to earlier gags instead of just being independently funny.

The Goku punch was amazing though, everything about that gag was hilarious

I thought the joke about them not trying hard after season 2 was pretty great. I don't know. It made me laugh, which is what is important

Working on this week's Super...and I'm really not liking Chi-chi's gimmick much any more...I could tolerate her screeching about how Gohan needs to be a scholar instead of a fighter back in Z because that was her kid...and I can even deal with her harping on Goku, since, yeah, apparently he's supposed to be the breadwinner for the family...but her showing up and trying to parent Pan for Gohan just makes me not like the character. Its supposed to be all a big joke "ha ha Chi-chi doesn't like people being professional fighters"...but its just not funny.

EDIT: Wow...it gets even worse! Seriously, she's going to more or less kidnap Pan because she doesn't like Gohan's parenting style.

to be fair, i'd react like that if i saw my son dressed up as a creep sparring with some weak dude while Pan's up in the air. But yeah, her not even asking Videl's opinion was pretty bad, and the ending of the episode left a bad taste with her character.

The Great Saiyaman is not a creep!!

But yeah...Videl makes it really clear that the mock fighting over Pan's affections is just something that Dad and Grandpa do, and Pan is plainly just loving it.

The "joke" behind Chi-Chi is that she's an overly-controlling tiger mom. That's one thing that's been consistent since the beginning of Z.

Yeah, but it stops being funny and goes straight into "sad and troublesome" when she's meddling in the parenting of not-her-kid.

To be fair Gohan and Satan were throwing the baby all over the place, Saiyan blood or no. And she seemed to be fine with Videl raising Pan however she wants, not just how the manchildren of Goku, Satan, and to a lesser extent Gohan would.

I actually liked how she was shown in this episode, like a total control freak but it seems to be more that she thinks it is her job rather than anything else. Once she loses she just goes 'oh okay welp did my part', like she is still so desperate to fill that role even after all these years.

...Is it just me, or did this episode have kind of a vaguely classic Dragonball feel? They actually used some of the dynamic between Goku and Bulma.

Though yeah, whilst I get the anime has had this idea about the gag surrounding Chi-Chi... I'm not sure on how far she's taking it. Like, has she just given up on Goten entirely?

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.

Astro Nut posted:

I think some of it has to do with the fact Goten looks EXACTLY like his father. Considering the mental space she was in at the time of his birth, she probably felt it was some sign that she should raise him to be like his dad.

Well of course Chi-Chi forgot about Goten. He was erased from the timeline.

They abridged Dead Zone and World's Strongest before "officially" becoming Team Four Star. If you poke around the internet you can probably still find old copies of those two parodies. Though a bit of warning, they're rougher than even the season 1 episodes.

They mean the Pre-TFS abridged movie of World's Strongest, not the actual film. It's very, very rough.

So I'm reading through the manga finally, and I have a question about a particular set of lines.



Are Bulma and Krillin directly talking about General Blue being gay in the original Japanese? I have to wonder if Krillin's line in this translation is some attempt to cover up the, uh, fairly homophobic depiction of Blue as a character.
