ChthonicMasturbatr posted:Somehow I managed to just completely miss the existence of Dragonball in my youth. But that comment is making me wonder whether I should give it a try. Does it hold up? but it is still a solid story imo. Vegeta is one of my favorite characters ever, his character arc is fantastic. and like, it's totally fine with being absolutely ridiculous and fun. like the Ginyu Force is a bunch of flamboyant space clowns who have a choreographed pose for the team figured out, but they're also actual threats. also, like, Dragon Ball itself is such an iconic, it's probably worth reading entirely for its cultural impact itself. Like, Dragon Ball as a series is insanely influential. Captain Invictus has a new favorite as of 00:56 on Mar 9, 2024 |

Yeah, I had a bit of nostalgia during the pandemic and went to rewatch it and it was pretty rough going.

Even some of early Hellsing Abridged is very rough, and you can treat it as a vertical core sample of how their work's evolved over time because it was an annual Halloween special.

Dragonball Z Kai is great and you don't need to worry about missing the authentic experience because there are still several episodes where nothing happens.

The article in the URL posted:My impression from hearing about canaries in coal mines was that they were expected to die to warn people, so when I came across this object it was a huge relief (though my research on the topic has found less thoughtful cages). I also spent a long time thinking the miners just let their canaries die on the regular and I think it was just last year I learned otherwise, that they bring the bird topside and start trying to resuscitate it. However I now realize I learned this fact and immediately put it in mental storage in a way where I have sort of vaguely half-pictured this canary resuscitation not as a tiny oxygen cage (obviously correct) but as human-to-bird CPR, with a huge grimy coal miner (probably wearing a headlamp still) providing minute mouth-to-beak breaths and the tiniest most careful chest compressions, pausing to check for canary consciousness every two to four seconds, the whole 9 yards. This mental image does not hold up to even an instant of scrutiny and I am both baffled by my ability to form it and yet also not surprised at all that I did

(I also assumed they just let the canaries die on the regular until now. It's interesting and wonderful to see how much they cared for them and tried to save them though. .)

Canaries weren't that cheap back then. Maybe rich miners could afford single-use canaries, but regular folks had to master mouth to beak to stay in the black.

They were down those mines to earn money for more canaries in the first place!

Captain Invictus posted:it is a quote from the dungeon meshi thread. So unless you're currently reading/watching it, you're good. Worth mentioning that the English localized name is Delicious in Dungeon. As in, the published manga doesn't say Dungeon Meshi on the cover, that's just what weebs call it.

My favorite Dragonball z memory is wandering through the toy dept at Walmart in the late 90s/early 00s and seeing a tiny figure of Goku and laughing at the fact it was called Dragonballz because there was little to no space on the title. This was way before I started watching the series or knew it existed.
