Dragonball and Z discussion

[CyberCubed]

The Bardock and History of Trunks eps were specials, not movies.

The movies aren't part of the main continuity, but all the specials are part of the mainline continuity. Same reason the two most recent DBZ movies aren't called "Movie 14 and 15" because they want people to know its official continuity.

*shrugs* To me, it's potato, po-tah-to, y'know? Most of the "official movies" have similar run-times to the specials (or in some cases, are shorter) - I find DBZ continuity pretty confusing at the best of times, and as it's already been pointed out, the "is it canon/is it not" debate is extremely murky, so I don't get too hung up on what fits where.

Sure a lot of the older cast like Piccolo and Krillin become completely obsolete by this saga (as opposed to the others), but there's lots of good stuff.

I didn't hate it, just was at the time wasn't my favorite. Went from evil and charismatic villains like vegeeta to freeza to androids to cell- all great villains. Then as the series ended, we got a child who liked to turn people into cookies then eat them. Should of put him between android sagas and then finish series with cell. Would of completely changed the ride for the better I think.


I did eventually appreciate boo on 2nd watch through

The Bardock Special. Don't care if it's not a movie. It's the absolute best supplemental material in the series. I didn't enjoy any of the movies enough for one to stand out amongst the others, though that doesn't necessarily mean they're BAD. But for what it's worth, I watched the second Cooler movie the most.

A-yep.

[TheCanadiandrome]

can't wait to see more DBZ

[THGhost]

Cooler's Revenge is my fave.

Definitely the worst.

I made a group for this at one point, but nobody joined..

So, not taking into account canon problems, what do you guys think is stronger. Super Saiyan God or Super Saiyan 4?

[TheCanadiandrome]

Super Saiyan God, because isn't it implied?

Yep, definitely God.

As far as I remember, that's never said. Although I have to agree that ssjgod would be stronger.

The argument is since GT comes after Z, 4 should be stronger. The fact that ssjgod wasn't thought of until recently doesn't bother people with that mind frame for some reason.

I think pretty much every fan decided it considering the fact that it pails in comparison to Ball & Z. And the fact that Battle Of Gods retconned it. Plus, didn't Toriyama have no involvement with it?

Growing up in the 90s, GT was never considered canon by anyone that I knew who watched it.

We're getting a little sidetracked here; the thread title is "Dragonball and Z discussion". Might wanna add GT to it.

I thought Dragon Ball Kai stopped after the Cell Saga. I was still in Japan when the show was airing back then. The last thing I saw before coming back home that time was Cell Saga stuff and the last ep of that, if I recall correctly. I don't recall the ep having a next episode preview or anything. I didn't watch all of Kai, would catch an ep here and there. If there's no Buu saga in Japanese, then there's nothing to dub, unless I'm wrong and they did go back to it.

[Slade]

Yeah, Kai did the Buu saga

Stop asking questions like this. Nobody cares about what is stronger than what.

Yeah Kai came back at first the idea was to just do the Buu saga version of Kai for outside of Japan since it did so well in the west. But Torico did pretty crap ratings so it replaced it in its time slot. I think there up to the Gotenks vs Buu fight now.

Actually they do. I care about what is stronger than what. It's a mother f*ckin show about who can be the strongest f*ckin warrior in the f*ckin universe. The f*ck you talkin about.

Tellin me what to do is about the dumbest f*ckin thing you can do. I can ask whatever the f*ck I want.

Yeah, and it's a discussion thread. It's even why power levels were made in the first place.

[Netkeeper]

LMAO DID I LEGIT MAKE YOU MAD?

Dragonball as a franchise is about a set of mystical balls that summon a wish-granting dragon. It's never been about who can be the strongest. That's stupid. The fighting in the series is about saving planets, or did you forget that?

"Who is stronger than who" discussions are not entertaining in the least and are basically "my dad can beat up ur dad" **** we all should have stopped doing or caring about by age 7.

[Slade]

Yeah except for the Saiyans/ the main f*ckin character that thrives on being the strongest warrior in existence. Or did you forget that?

Your opinion is "who's the strongest" isn't entertaining. You don't speak for everyone. Especially since there's a thousand f*cking topics about that sh*t all over the f*ckin internet.

[Netkeeper]

Oh man I actually made you mad. How hilarious. Are you 12?

Did it ever occur to you the reason WHY I don't like that topic is because you find it literally everywhere? I've been a Dragonball fan since the 90's, don't you think I've heard that discussion enough? It's boring as piss. There's so many other topics relevant to the franchise that can be discussed, don't pick the one that's been done to death.

[THGhost]

Take it to another thread guys.

Yes, Kai started doing the Buu saga. Looking forward to hearing the dub.
