Given a history family resemblance, I hope she looks just like Raditz.

She looks like Videl, turns out Mr. Satan has been a saiyan all along! Then we get to see SS3 Hercule.

Correct me if I'm wrong but doesn't Trunks say that what ever he does when he goes back in time, won't have any effect on his timeline? What's the point then? His world is still gonna be hosed?

He does end up going back and, thanks to his crazy rear end powerup, ends up stomping the poo poo out of the Androids. So there's that.

Yajirobe is a loving badass and straight up as strong as (maybe a little stronger than) Goku in the King Piccolo saga when he shows up. He just never, ever does anything. I mean I guess he trains with Kami a bit but I think he just ate some chicken wings all day.

Uh, Yajirobe took down Vegeta, so I think he's the real savior of the Earth.

Just thought of how to make buy saga the best. The mystic transformation could only latch onto a persona. Cue The Great Sayaman getting it and fighting buu (and not jobbimg on him). All future defenders of the earth take up the mantle due to the immense power it grants, but only if you're as dorky when doing it.

So what's the best/cheapest way to own all of the Dragon Ball manga? Amazon has a ton of options.

There's individual volumes, 3-in-1 editions, VizBIG editions and the colored editions.

The colored ones look amazing, but only start with Raditz, and seems to stop at Cell. Also, they seem pricey.

I'm thinking of asking for these for Christmas, but I'd like the price to be reasonable.

edit: Does Viz have the whole series on their online reader or something?

Double edit: All these releases seem to be censored? That sucks.

My friend has been buying up the colored version of Dragonball starting from #1. Then again, he's buying it somewhere locally in Spanish. So there should be DB Colored somewhere out there.

So today the PS2 I bought off the Goodwill Auction site finally came in the mail, so after digging around for my games, controllers, and memory cards, and making sure the system worked(and the memory cards cause they haven't been used since 2010 or so), to test that it would play games properly I popped in Budokai Tenkaichi 3 and it worked like a charm(also seeing that game's magnificent roster again reminds me that we need one day a Dragon Ball game that has literally every character whose thrown a punch to be included)

IIRC Budokai 2 had that dumb mission where as Vegeta you had to survive against Kid Buu for 60 seconds. Well I actually KILLED Kid Buu before that 60 seconds was up...and the game said I failed the mission for that. :psyduck:

It seems to reason that Vegeta would still be alive for the rest of that minute after killing Kid Buu, but apparently not.

You may have won the fight, but you inadvertently tanked the ratings by stealing gokus kill. The show ends before the epilogue can run.

Dragon Ball AU idea; every time an alien comes to Earth they bonk their head on something, gets amnesia, and become a good guy, and yes this makes makes a large chunk of Dragon Ball Z's events into a complete farce(inspired by several What If scenarios in various Dragon Ball video games where thus happens to Raditz and Broly)

Only if this occurs by increasingly improbable events (mecha Freeza comes and gets a virus while a tiny meteorite simultaneously conks Cold)

Blue Star posted:

It also would settle the issue of the androids being somehow stronger than a galactic overlord even though they were basically just teenagers uplifted with implants by an Earthling scientist. How can a human scientist just arbitrarily create cyborgs that are noticeably stronger than a legendary Super Saiyan or a super-powered alien warlord? Well, it turns out he can't, actually. Because as soon as the Super Saiyans begin earnestly training they get way stronger, and as soon as Freeza starts earnestly training he gets WAY the gently caress stronger.

16 was still way strong regardless, though. Granted, not a cyborg.

I think the short little flashback montage thing that happened when Trunks was telling Goku about what happened Vegeta had gone SSJ in that. Presumably he achieved it the same way, but with only Goku to torment his dreams until he managed it.

The image of ghost goku haunting Vegeta until he achieves SSJ is hilarious.
