Plus his kid married Mr Satan's kid, so it's not like he can exactly fail. It's like being best friends with tony stark and your kid married into tchalla's family. Once poo poo gets punchy and villains roll back up to get beaten, he's back training and all that, but with no one to beat on, he's basically gotta just do something. I guess the z team all got together and realized the best place to stick him was in a field far away from anything else and have him play with the dirt.

The best part of Super is the inbetween fight stuff where it remembers that Dragon Ball is supposed to be goofy. So you have scenes like Goku Kool-Aid Manning through a wall when he finds out Vegeta has been training or Goku pretending to be knocked away but having to come back because he forgot his tractor.

He's just a normal karate dude who became famous in the time when Goku and his friends were doing other stuff and didn't participate in martial arts tournaments. He's got a flair for the dramatic and is a shameless self promoter but he's pretty much a good person.

Starting out, he's a self-centered rear end in a top hat, but the whole Buu saga kinda got him to stop, and then his daughter dates/marries the strongest person on the planet and, well, time to move into Humble City, and stay on the good side of your son-in-laws dad who died to save your rear end, and then came back.

The other thing is that since the Z guys ran off before the smoke cleared after they beat Cell, Mr. Satan was the only one left for anyone to find. Being a relentless self-promoter, he took sole credit for beating Cell, winning the tournament, and saving the world, then rode the hype to colossal fame and fortune.

I absolutely love the Fast and Furious series, deeply and fully. Watching 7 again. You've just driven a car from one tower to another tower through another tower while escaping the implacable Jason Statham. Why are you talking instead of hitting the elevators!? Or the stairs, since clearly Jason Statham can handle elevators!? Go! What are you doing!?

This isn't really irrationally irritating but it struck me as kinda weird, although not necessarily in a bad way. Netflix One Piece: finished the season just now and let me first say I actually kinda really like it. I haven't watched the anime so I went in totally blind with the kids and it grew on me enough that I'm hoping it'll get a second season (and beyond) because it's just a lot of fun. It's unabashedly, goofy fun and Luffy's relentless positivity grew on me, as did the other characters. Especially clown guy was a blast and the actor nailed the physicality of that character. But it has this weird tonal change. First episode is super goody fun I'd let an 8 year old watch. Second episode kinda creepy with the circus stuff but still fine. All the fights are cartoony with literally no blood when someone is cut down by a sword and stuff. Then halfway through you start hearing them say poo poo, calling others shitbag, stuff like that. Which I'm totally cool with, by the way, even in a kids show because I believe you can explain to kids there's such a thing as adult language and there's a time and place for that kind of stuff when you're older. But then the last couple of episodes they start saying loving this and that, there's bloodspray all over the place during the fights and they get into some seriously heavy themes and scenes. Which is fine, but I don't know. Like I said, it's not necessarily bad, in fact I kinda like the ramp up to more adult stuff and the contrast between the goofy stuff and the serious poo poo. It's just not what the first couple of episodes promised, and that feels kind of weird? But maybe in a good way? Idk, but overall I really enjoyed watching it, solid 7 or 8 out of 10 and I'm for sure watching the next season if Netflix doesn't cancel it, although I'm sure that if you're familiar with the anime there's plenty to hate too.

Anyway the creator of dragonball loves him some puns and jokes in his names. Like the entire race of the Saiyans being named after Vegetables, The Briefs family all being undergarments. Mr Satan's name is part of the setup to probably his best multiple pun name: Goku has a son named Gohan (Rice / Meal) Gohan was partially raised by Picollo Jr (His father/pre-reincarnation was known as the Demon King, also an instrument) Gohan dates and marries the daughter of Mr Satan: Videl (Devil) Their daughter is named Pan: Loanword for Bread, A Satyr from greek myth with imagery alike the Christian Devil, and a flute

The beginning seems very disjointed from the end, almost two different halves of shows, but as you go along it becomes more coherent and in the end I’d say it becomes one piece.

That stuff happens all the time in manga and it is adorable. Jojo's is the poster child including the hilarious renames during localization. They're not all Ash Ketchum though, sometimes the meaning isn't obvious to American readers/viewers. Monogatari also has a bunch: for example, the girl with the big backpack Mayoi is meant to resemble a snail. Her story is that she is dead and unable to move on to the spirit world because she can't find her way home, and so she is called a 'lost cow', because in Japanese 'cow' shares kanji with the word 'snail'.

It is true, he's called "Mr Satan" because it's his wrestling promo name. He was modeled after pro wrestlers who are all talk. His real name, also a wrasslin reference due to getting chumped all the time, is Mark. He comes into the story wearing a big championship belt and then gets immediately chumped by the real main characters because he can't use chi arts. It's kind of endearing when he realizes why he lost the tournament he appears in: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vIJsbS_9acc

I love the bit where he's in the fight with 18 and they agree that he'll hit her as hard as he can, and she'll throw the match to allow him to save face. When the punch connects, she just stands there and is like Android 18: "Is that really the best you have?" Mr Satan, distraught: "Mmmhmmm  "Android 18: "OK, fair enough." Launches herself out of the arena, leaving Mr Satan to scramble and invent a story about his new "delayed reaction punch"

In the first X-Men movie, Prof. X says he can't look for Magneto because he helped him build Cerebro and (as we find out) his helmet blocks it (and all of Xavier's mind reading/control.) I'm also willing to accept that Magneto's hideout uses the same material as his helmet, so Xavier also can't just look for Mystique, Sabertooth, or Toad while they're there. But...there's nothing stopping him from looking for any of those three when they AREN'T at the hideout, then tracking them, and seeing where they stop being tracked. Voila, hideout found. There's also the scene where they kidnap Rogue and as they're carrying her away, Xavier does mind control Sabertooth and Toad to get Magneto to stop, but then Magneto aims all the guns at the cops so Xavier lets them go. In the time Xavier was in control of the other two goons, why didn't he just have Sabertooth kniock Magneto's helmet off? Or make Toad use his gross tongue to remove it? Then he could just mind control Magneto.
