Kanzenshuu

As others have said, first and final form Freeza. Can't add anything on those that hasn't already been said. As for some others, Jackie Chun, Kid Boo, Kid Goku, Present Trunks is pretty cool, Raditz, first form Cell, and last but certainly not least, Oob. Oob looks awesome, although not as much afte...

I guess people probably either don't understand mine or think it's me expressing some team pride, like how my avatar is. That's partially true, but really it just brings a smile to my face when I read it. Like, "Damn, UANL won championships in TWO sports this year." And hopefully we've got...

Does it really actually start with Raditz? Or do we all just always mindlessly parrot that thinking because that's where the Z split is located? Honestly, Dragon Ball to me really becomes Z quite a good ways before Raditz ever shows up. To me the 22nd Budokai is almost a proto-DBZ in itself, but re...

I'd ask about when exactly he decided Goku was an alien. He already answered this. When it comes to Dragon Ball, of course, there’s Goku; how far had you thought out Goku’s concept at the start of the serialization? Toriyama: I’d hardly thought out anything. I hadn’t come up with the concept of him...

"Is a hot dog a sandwich?"

I'd ask about when exactly he decided Goku was an alien.

In seriousness, I don't really see how this is complicated. The "holy gospel" as you describe it paired with the Super Anime gives you all the story you need to know to "get in to the franchise." If you're just going by the manga alone for the original series, wouldn't pairing i...

Not to mention Goku's Traffic Safety. Where does THAT fit into the canon?

[spoiler] Yes. Before Goku first fired the Kamehameha, it was supposed to be invisible. Just to add a little bit onto the wuxia talk and this comment in particular, Toriyama stated the following in his second Extreme Battle Collection Q&A (bolded emphasis below my own): Techniques that are plain...

I look at it like this, and as a heads up, I'm ignoring other franchises for simplicity. I would tend to agree that Pokemon is number one, but that's not really the topic. For the general population, DB is above One Piece. Not even close. People use DB pictures all the time on twitter and stuff to s...

Can't we just watch the show or read the manga without knowing what happens beforehand? You're not entitled to that, no. If you don't want spoilers, the only wise course of action is to keep off of social media, forums, etc. Yeah, as annoying as it is, I have to agree with this. Coming onto the for...

Hands down the greatest picture/name combo there is

This conversation is ridiculous. Nobody should ever get anywhere near 50,000 posts unless they've passed their account onto their grandkids. Best to do away with ranks completely, maybe even post count too. It adds nothing and takes away (depending on the person) from a good discussion.

This is incredible!

A lot of people say since they have the Dragonballs, wishes, time travel, etc. character deaths are pointless since we know any main character who dies will be revived. But is it really pointless? Each time a character has died it directly changed the narrative and had a major point in the story: -...

Just to set the record straight, I'm pretty sure only the very first Daizenshu has ever been translated to English. You may have already known that (and presumably don't care) but I know that fact eluded me for a while when I first discovered these.

Some neat stuff on there if you can read Spanish.

Hirving Lozano and Erick Gutierrez during the Pachuca game last night

Just tuned in a few minutes ago. Sounds great to me.

Always the best choice if you don't have the motivation to self-teach.

Pretty much what I thought. I'm taking Arabic courses at the moment, and its some damn hard work. I guess there really are no shortcuts though.

Not really a Dragon Ball comment, but for those of you that know Japanese what do you think is the best way for me to learn? I really only need to know who to read (articles/news), speaking and listening comes second. Shell out for a class at the local college? Online course?
