I mean it's not that surprising. Dragon Ball revels in the gender binary. Men are Muscle Men and Women are Curvy Women and the people in-between are villains or joke characters. So yeah Goku is super popular in every culture where men view themselves as traditionally masculine. Which is a lot of the world.

I will not shut up about the Mighty Morphin Power Rangers. I talk about them all the time and work them into every conversation I have. I built a shrine in my room for the yellow one who died because sadly no one noticed because she died around 9/11. Wanna see it?

It's funny you should say that, I actually was seriously considering putting Trunks in, but then I would feel compelled to put Goten in, and I wanted to keep it at seven because of the seven Dragon Balls.

Also lmao that Yamcha isn't at the very bottom of the poll.

I just started re-reading Dragon Ball a few weeks ago and have been blown away by some of his designs. Every chapter there's some new car or plane or boat he's drawing. They all look like they could work in real life and they all look cool as hell.

It’s crazy that it’s like a five year old game now too. They really knocked it out the park with a graphical style that is gonna stand the test of time.

You can. The dragon balls give two wishes:

Wish one: I wish for Akira Toriyama from one hour before he had an accident resulting in his death to be safely transported here to the present
Wish two: I wish Akira Toriyama immortal.

One of the nicest things I've seen today is just how many people (not just professional artists) shared sentiments along the line of 'His work is the reason I got into drawing.' Anything from people just learning from copying off of a paused TV screen to full-fledged professionals. I'm sure that's pretty much the biggest compliment an artist could hope for :unsmith:.

One of the quiet nightmares is that yes, dying while dead will just erase you from existence the same as a Hakai would, which made Vegeta fighting Buu to let Goku charge the bomb a genuinely tense and terrifying act
