For some reason the Saiyans were what needed to be removed instead of the guy giving them jobs.

You didn't see the banquet they gave Beerus. Shameful!

17 and 18 were cyborgs, not pure androids. They still had fleshy bits.

As for why those bits... well, Gero had issues concerning his dead son (see 16), so maybe he wanted to leave open the possibility of vicarious grandkids? Dude was a nut, what do you want.

Oh wait poo poo, do we add Krillin to the scored list now that we have his daughter onscreen?!

So, if Goku is Worst DB Father and Vegeta is Worst DB Husband, who gets Best DB Father, Krillian or Gohan (or comedy option, Piccolo)?

Stroheim might be the most positive portrayal of a Nazi in media not produced between 1931-1945.

That and Black Lagoon. Probably helps they focus on the "patriotism towards Germany" more than the "Arayan Ubermench" stuff.

Let me put it this way: all of what you just saw with Sanviento?

Yeah, he was the "special needs" member of the Pillar Men.

I know this is both cliched and lowest common denominator as gently caress, but this series just seems to enjoy words way too much. I mean, they spend way more "dialogue budget" to communicate relatively simple concepts than seems necessary, and it just makes everything so drat hard to follow without, like, a cheat sheet on hand or something.

Maybe it's like the whole "hunter pass" deal: the top of the tower is a trap to eliminate the greedy and lap-of-luxury seekers from the ranks of the actual Doing poo poo Hunters.

Never thought one punch would make for a great fight scene. Well except for OPM I guess

Saitama would kill for the chance to experience what Gon just did with that one punch.

Which is his whole problem, I guess.

Compared to these super serious grimdark characters, this guy is a breath of fresh air who won't last to the end of the episode, will he?

It's explained in Battle of Gods so I'm assuming it's also explained later in Super, but I believe they got the Dragon Balls themselves and hosed up a wish.

You gotta specify youth. Do you mean like 10 years old or eternal prime life like 18-25? Dragon just goes by if he likes you and if you specify what you want and Pilaf's enough of a scatterbrain to lose on both fronts there.

Also I didn't know the dragonball energy could be hidden in lead?
