Sorry to undo the effort of paying a domestic abuser $10 to own this poster, but I am going to lose my dang mind if I keep seeing multiple posters who appear to be Baloogan.

the only thing i know about gt is that a deer tried to breast feed off of pan one episode

i think that's about all i need to know about GT :stonk:

GT is one of those shows filled to the brim with great ideas with terrible executions and it fills me with sadness whenever I remember it. As an overarching, broad plot strokes nothing in GT is bad, all of it is actually pretty loving exciting and sounds good. But the actual context and actions just....just terrible.

I don't think a person alive can pull off an idea like Super 17. Turning Goku back into a kid is also something you'd really have to sell me on over using another character, too.

I feel like GT has a few sparks of good ideas, but almost by accident seeing how they use them.

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.

Goku being a kid sounds like a fun one off comedy filler episode rather than being the basis of the whole show. Even the way it happens is a stupid joke, literally Pilaf going 'I wish you were still a little kid, then I'd kick your rear end!'

Continuing Kai. Goku showed up on the Kai planet and Kibito is just all "UGH ANOTHER mortal?"

How did I never see what a dick he was before?

The dub likely didn't emphasize that part of his character in the past

I mean even broader then that.

I don't mean 'Goku is a kid again', I mean 'Goku is back on another massive, spanning adventure, this time Universe Sized instead of Planet sized. Meeting new and strange creatures that are crazy, strange, and crazy strong, with a colorful trope of characters who have unique and different powers'

I don't mean 'Super 17', I mean 'The last revenge of Goku's old villains, coming back for one last hurrah that could end the world, and there's way too many for Goku to take down himself, so it's up to everyone together to deal with this.'

I mean something like 'The Oozaru form is back, the primal Saiyan monster useful and needed one more time, Goku/Vegeta/Gohan has to tap into that savagery one last time to defeat his opponent'

or even just the basic plan of the Shadow Dragons.

Elder Kai talking about how an evil person sealed him away in the Z-sword because he was scared of him becomes hilarious when you realize he's actually talking about Beerus.

I came here to laugh at you.
I could forgive GT a lot of its flaws if Pan was the star instead of Kid Goku. Like that Columbo spin-off that starred his wife, a bad plan with a poor execution but at least they tried something for a new audience. But making Kid Goku the main just means you're doing the same thing, but just shittier.

GT is an awful series and no dub can ever fix it, but goddammit Mi Corazón Encantado is one of my favourite songs ever and I can listen to it at any point without feeling any sort of shame in knowing where it came from. The original Dan Dan Kokoro Hikareteku is great too, but Mi Corazón Encantado just has the perfect mix of being a genuinely great song and having all that nostalgia. I need to link to it and listen to it now.

What an amazing song for an amazingly terrible series.

I like how your version is called Mi Corazón Encantado and the PT-BR one is Sorriso Resplandescente even though the lyrics are pretty much the same: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Bp4KRgB4xR8


I really like GT's opening, pity about the series. Also translated OPs are my poo poo and another cool thing about the Super dub is that we're getting our version of the OP.

That episode blew by super fast, but I feel like it was a pretty solid opener, and answered some important questions. Looks like next episode might mean the end of universe 9's whole crew which should be interesting. i also like the Teamwork Pals, who hopefully get some solid fights of their own

really, really want to see how Frieza is used here. we've had only a tease of a setup for some betrayal stuff from him in the last episode but i wonder how it will really go down. he looks like he's enjoying himself

I did not like how every one's team up attack did nothing to them. That was very stupid and unnecessary and only gives people who complain more ammo.

Decent opening to the tournament, though I hope the pace doesn't stay this slow the whole way through.

I kind of expect the preview to be a fakeout and some universe besides 9 gets eliminated next episode.

i dunno, they just kind of threw out a bunch of poo poo at once and it wasn't much of a team effort. i think when we see gohan and piccolo pull out the actual team-up moves it'll be a big deal

That was a nice open to the Tournament.

Interesting that the Magical Girls have varied designs, also maybe it's just me but is the new ending implying Jiren has eye beams? Is Jiren actually a Superman stand-in too?

I like the old ending song better than this new one :(

Good episode overall though there were a couple of obvious copy-pasted animations (the fox guy's kick blast, 3 shots of Vegeta punching the same dude, and next week's Goku/Bergamo fight looks to have a fight sequence straight from the opening).

I've felt that he kinda was since we first saw him, since they have similar outfits and most of Super has been doing fanservice stuff: sending up an argument like that wouldn't be too out there.

I was confused to see 18 wander off on her own, which makes me think she'll be the first team 7 ring out unfortunately. Having said that maybe she'll start to coordinate with 17 and they'll do something cool.

I laughed when half the team went off to do their own thing because they found the plan boring.

Best tournament would be if someone grabbing Goku and jumping off the ring with him at the beginning worked and he had to sit and watch the whole time.
