Hope you enjoy the latter episodes!


Because seriously it's like season 1 of DBZA, only with a much better upswing in quality.

Like if season 1 of DBZA's second half was chunks of Season 2.

Since we're kinda sorta talking about FF7: why the gently caress is it the most popular RPG ever and yet nobody can seem to properly remember the actual personalities people had?

The basic answer is that it is a combination of it having an infamously bad translation, a lot of people playing it when they were 12 , and it being one of the earliest big 'internet popular' games so people tended to repeat stuff they heard and it kind of took hold.

Well, the same thing goes to Dragon Ball. I mean, some people remember Future Trunks as competent, or Vegeta as stoic.

Childhood memories are very, very unreliable, and people tend to be unwilling to check if they're true or not.

when's the last time piccolo won a fight?

unless you're including the garlick jr filler arc (I can't remember anything about that at all), all I can think of is raditz (and goku technically) and some saibamen. I guess you might count imperfect cell or android 20 running away as a win

if you think about it that way, gohan is following uncle piccolo's example way better than goku's

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.
Gohan will win the long game. He will teach the whole world how to use ki in his term paper and the entire world will begin training it. Mankind will grow an army of powerful warriors who will seek the tutelage of the Z-Fighters and be stronger than the Sayians of planet Vegeta.

Simultaneously, Gohan, Goten, and Trunks will reproduce with humans until all humans are part-sayian. Super sayians will be the norm!

In the end, humans will become so powerful and feared not even the gods of destruction could stand up to their combined might.

Gohan is the true hero of Dragonball!

Unfortunately, considering that DB kinda shows that numbers don't mean squat compared to your fighting ability, I don't think this part of the plan will work.

Everything but that is aces though.

I think most of that stuff will keep being folded into new games since it gives them a lot of new material to work with

Which is good because it will make it actually interesting to progress through the story mode of a DBZ game for once

It'd be interesting to have a game like Heroes, but not card game-based. Just, going entirely wild with the story and doing whatever it pleases. Like Heroes!

By the way, new Heroes.

I don't mind Super's animation for the most part, and I realize a two minute promo clip isn't the same amount of work as a 22 minute episode every week, but drat if I wouldn't love it if Super's animation looked like that clip. All of the game intro scenes and what not are so well animated and they're probably what make people remember DBZ's animation as being better than it was.

Maybe this version of Goten is from a world where Vegeta never got revived, so Goten never got to grow up with his best friend.

When I think of "combined might", I'm thinking Spirit Bomb. And considering a regular human energy combined Spirit Bomb was enough to take down Kid Buu, a super-powered human combined Spirit Bomb just might be enough to take down a god of destruction.

Do we know for a fact that TP Trunks is the exact same Trunks from the original timeline? I mean, we have four timelines in our main universe and 12 universes total, so the TP Trunks in Heroes could be a totally different Trunks from the TP Trunks in Xenoverse and a different Trunks from Future Trunks.

I'm fine with TP Goten existing, because it means TP Gotenks exists and that's awesome.
