Retcon posted:That's interesting. I wonder if people would have reacted differently to DBZ if they had watched DB before. A lot of characters that are just support characters in DBZ like Roshi or Tien had a much larger role in Dragon Ball. I was pretty annoyed as a child when Tien went from "Goku's rival" to "Guy that shows up for fights but is ridiculously outclassed". You mean in his second appearance? In Dragonball.

Vintimus Prime posted:I don't know, Goku had a meaningful moment with Gohan before teleporting away with Cell. He tells him he's very proud of him, and says to tell Chichi he's sorry for being selfish all the time. Yeah I wish that had more fallout especially when the Buu saga ends with him being a selfish manchild again. But I guess it shouldn't be surprising, Goku is a terrible family man, despite what the internet says about the the fixes the Japanese version does (somehow?).

Though I don't remember it being a joke all that often, except in like Dragonball. Except in DBZA, its an okay joke there, but its only slightly exaggerated there even.

We don't forget, they just aren't important, like no one says he spends literally no time with his family, just that he takes time off and abandons them really easily. At least three times for dumb as gently caress reasons. The end of the Frieza, Cell, and Buu sagas are it. Also I don't take GT as if I remember correctly GT actually makes it seem he comes back while I believe then end of DBZ has him literally saying "I am going to live in his village with him to train him" which is pretty cut and dry. Hell If I remember correctly he spends less time with them over the series then without them. He is a huge douche.

Spiritus Nox posted:I forget, did they give a reason why, in situations like that, Goku and Vegeta couldn't just do the dance again? In Gt? I think they tried but they didn't have enough energy to do it again or something. Also it is not like Buu, Vegetto played around for a specific purpose, to bait Buu into absorbing him. Though I think Gogeta did too, something about negative energy or something, I don't really get it or care.

There are people who are going to get a fighting game because it is based on a 20 year old Manga. The line you draw for being pathetic is kind of arbitrary.

Aurain posted:Goku is kind of a prick to everyone who doesn't fight with him, really. He's an rear end in a top hat to Gohan quite often, he's pretty short with Goten. It's partly tough love, but he seems to do it inappropriately a lot of the time too. He seems to like Bulma way more than his wife. Then again, who doesn't like Bulma a lot more than Chi Chi? I don't know how you get that, he barely interacts with Bulma either. I think he interacts with Chi Chi more than her. In fact, if you aren't fighting with him, he barely acknowledges your existence.

Prison Warden posted:Goku is a terrible father because he is an average saiyan. He doesn't really care about his brother, his wife is just some woman who lives in his house and cooks for him and his kids are just things he can train to become great warriors. Back on Vegeta Goku would have gave no shits about sending his kid in a space pod to another world, hit his head or no. Vegeta is like the only saiyan who actually cares about his family. Did Goku even give a gently caress when Buu turned Chi Chi into an egg and squished her? Vegeta's wife got slapped and he went so ballistic he became powerful enough to deck a god straight in the face. To be fair Vegeta didn't give a gently caress when Buu ate Bulma either. They are kind of arbitrary with what they care about. Like Goku freaks out a bit when he is getting owned by Frieza about what he will do to his family, but doesn't give a gently caress about Buu.

Momomo posted:You could also call it the Namek saga. Nah Namek had him kicking the rear end of most of Freeza's men. Plus when he did get beaten, it was in situations where he was only fighting because he had too. He knew perfectly well he was gonna lose. The Androids and Cell both involve him running into situations he could have avoided and getting his rear end handed to him.

Well he legit believes he is stronger than the androids. He crushed 19 and assumed he was stronger than the rest. Though he actually does use trickery on Gero after beating 19. I mean he can't sense their power, and he has finally achieved what is basically his life long dream. He also legit believes he is stronger than Cell as Cell hides his power upon ascension for whatever reason he does that. It all comes down to the fact Vegeta was familiar with the Ginyu force and Freeza, while he had no idea what to expect from the Androids and Cell.

I am glad Gohan didn't become the main hero, I like him as the dude that is reluctant to fight and really isn't good in fight situations despite his massive potential. Its like the only interesting quality he has.

I don't know, whenever he fought he acted exactly like Goku because when fighting actually happened everyone always acted exactly the same. I mean its not like Gohan didn't get his focus in the Buu saga(he acted about how I expected Goku would have as well), it was just ultimately pointless.

Twiddy posted:He was literally hyped up since the beginning of DBZ, which is where most people started watching the show. Like he was shown as stronger than Goku in the fight against Raditz. The fight against Cell was the culmination of a buildup since the story began for many people, it's disappointing that it just died off. He was hyped up but he had his payoff so I don't particularly care what happened next. They Great Saiyaman arc is about all you have left to do with the character really. Trying to shoe him into the hero of the Buu arc was just dumb.

There was no specific hero in the Buu saga. Everyone just took turns being the guy who was gonna win for realsies. I mean you had Gotenks, Gohan, Vegito, and Goku were all seen as potential saviors. That arc was quite literally all over the place. I am actually quite content with how it ended frankly.

Onmi posted:To be fair he wasn't "Shoed in" as the hero if he were, he's more pushed out of the hero role because most of the arc is his training to unlock his full power. In the end every bit with the Old Kai etc. was just pointless filler. Well I mean it was basically, "remember cell? Lets do that again." No, no lets not. I would prefer Gotenks to that again.

Onmi posted:Gotenks also reeked of wasted time. All that fusion training, the Super Saiyan 3, it pretty much amounted to another Buu power up. I actually like that. The heroes have plans they all fail, ending with the the first ever failure coming back to save the day. It works man. Hell every Dragon ball arc has several plans that fail hard, there are very few plans that actually work and its usually the heroes pulling poo poo out of their asses so complaining about Buu saga doing it seems weird. Plus the heroes who actually win it are Hercule and Vegeta.
