I'm glad we finally reached the perfect symbiosis where Toriyama makes the rough story outlines and character designs and what not to make up the heart of the story and hands them off to obsessive super-fans who remember every tiny detail of Dragon Ball more than Toriyama ever can be arsed to to flesh those stories out.

WrathOfBlade posted:The only part of that which survived, after Toriyama went in and created a fun and interesting character who looked like his cat, was the fact that Beerus made Frieza destroy Planet Vegeta. Which, surprise, is the one thing everyone seems to hate about Beerus. It retroactively pisses on Freeza's backstory.

All I remember hearing is that the Broly guy talked about how he was a wee bit disappointed that the one opponent Goku couldn't beat wasn't a big buff muscle man but a cat undergoing chemo.

Zore posted:No, I think the Broly dude just had a hilarious meltdown over how Beerus was a bad villain and Broly was stronger because of muscles. He didn't have a meltdown, as I recall. I think he was just surprised that the strongest guy in the canon was pretty thin and lanky compared to Broly. Edit: Upon review, I still don't think he is having a meltdown, but he IS doing a lot of wanking for Broly. Interview posted:After much hard work, I was unable to come up with an opponent stronger than Broli, and fell into a rut where I made him appear three times.

Yeah I've never thought the dude was having a meltdown as much as he was genuinely surprised at the existence of a type of character like Beerus. I think the worst thing you can say it is that his conception of what Dragon Ball is seems fairly different than Toriyama's, which is kind of obvious from the 13 movies anyways.

I wonder how you can watch dragon ball and see dudes like frieza or cell and come to the conclusion that bigger is better in this universe. they even explicitly spell out that that's not true with trunks and perfect cell the one time I can think of in dragon ball where getting bigger was treated as an advantage was the saiyan's great ape form

Or Krillin in the Xenoverse games. There was Giant Piccolo too but IIRC he was doing better in that fight against Goku without that form.

I think there's room for a hulk or two, but the obsession with it is strange and of course the character himself is stupid

the worst part about broly is him being a dumb rage monster. And actually his large body size is a cool contrast from the typical dbz characters (big muscly dudes have mostly just been nappa and racoom) i would have liked broly more if he'd been a reasonably intelligent character with an irrational deep set hatred for goku

Don't the other two Broly movies don't even have Goku around, so his reason for being so piss is gone.

Rirse posted:Don't the other two Broly movies don't even have Goku around, so his reason for being so piss is gone. Yup. Broly 2 and Bio-Broly happen in the early Buu Saga, so by that time Goku is dead. Broly nonetheless does little more than screaming KAKAROT, using Goten as his target instead.

Broly as a big angry muscle strong guy who's whole thing is he's strong and angry would be fine if the character had a personality and his motivation made any sense

Freezer was the best example of it though, to be fair. With Vegets, he's still muscular as gently caress even as a short little dwarf man. Freeza made a point of getting bigger and bigger- and then becoming this super short super slim thing that did excellently until he bulked up.

Yeah this comes across a lot more as "How can he be stronger, Broly is so cool. That surprised me a lot, but it seems to work" and not so much a meltdown.

Cell also made himself giant when he fought against Gohan as a desperation move. Always like that particular ruffle of DBZ, that big isn't always the best

So for all of his life Krillin will refer to his wife as Super Advanced Robo-Human No. 18 and her grandchildren will refer to her as Gramma Super Advanced Robo-Human No. 18? They never gave her a regular name?

"Come on, Laz." "My NAME is Artificial Human #18." "That's a dumb name!" "Well, it's MY name."

Why do you think Krillin's wife actually enjoys being called a number? You didn't even hear their loving last names. It makes me think they're just kids of hippies that got "donated" to Gero for drugs. It's probably something stupid like Lapis and Lazuli Starchild or something.

good episode. kinda wish that when super saiyan dog basil used his double diable jambe attack on buu, it blew buu into pieces and buu became a bunch of miniature buus that reformed into the big one like what happened when vegeta blew himself up. I just wanna see the reaction of the spectators for that
