I wish they spent some time showing Piccolo and Buu training with Whis.

They aren't nearly powerful enough to compete. They're just here to get their shit kicked in during the first round so Champa's fighters can show off their strength.

Its not like Goku, Vegeta or Nipples are gonna lose in the first round.

I hope we get some mileage out of these characters. Like, some circumstance that makes them team up with our guys, show some character depth.

I mean, I'm mostly expecting them to all be villainous assholes, since Vados and Champa are both assholes and they're all standing around looking menacing. But there might be some hope.

Because I'm not retarded and this panel clearer makes it look like Goku is trying to instruct Vegeta and the author believes Goku is able to know this shit by himself because he has no motivation to think for two minutes about writing his shitty dialogues.

They need to have gotten a power up in order for that to happen in the first place. Otherwise, they won't "show" anything by beating them.

Don't forget that the manga is rather rushed due to the monthly schedule though, so it's likely that Piccolo and Buu did train with Whis, but we'll only see it when they get to fight.

And why the fuck is Goku such a historian of Saiyins all of a sudden?

Talk for yourself, the animation may be garbage but I'm really liking this more DB oriented approach, also its glorious for making DBZfags mad.

What? We haven't had a serious tournament outside of filler since the 23rd Budokai. Tournaments have been a joke ever since the Cell Saga and that continued in the Buu Saga.
>>
Remember Piccolo's move set Toriyama.
>>
>>135277699

The manga has to go in a very fast pacing because it's monthly and needs to be ahead of the weekly anime. Details like those probably will be overlooked in order to save time. You'll probably get some excuse in the anime.

I'm talking through the majority which is true.

The majority also disagree, which is why the dude is one of the more popular DBZ characters and keeps coming back.

I mean you can trivialize a character, but it doesn't really prove a point.
He's like the Boba Fett and Darth Maul of DBZ, a simple character, with simple motivations for his actions.

2nd and 3rd Movie were shit though.

I think Goku was a few years younger than Vegeta, and is now even younger because he was dead for like 8 years.

The whole deviant art insult typically came from sonic fans who used recolors.

Goku during his early training with Roshi: 12
Goku during his second world martial arts tournament:15
Goku during his third world martial arts tournament: 18
There's a 5 years gap between DB and DBZ
Goku when he died for the first time:23
When he was resurrected: 24

It's practically less than 2 months between Goku-Vegeta match and Goku-Frieza Match

Another 1 year before he came back from Planet Yardrat:25

3 years between his first meetup with Future Trunks:28

1 year (well, less than 1 year) inside the hyperbolic time chamber:29

(plus 7 years of being dead,so that doesn't count)
So Goku is about 29 years old in Buu Saga, and maybe a couple of years older at the start of Dragonball Super
>>
>>135279960
Actually he should stay at 23 when he was dead the first time.

So he's about 30 years old at the start of DBS

What stupid fans wanted = DBS to be the return of DBZ, with super super power levels and serious shit. Return of Broly or whatever, HUGE HUGE POWER.

What Toriyama ended up making = Fusion of DBZ and DB style, with a bit more focus on DB style. Training shit happens offscreen because he doesn't care about that shit. You have a lot of comedy and odd designs that are humorous. He's having fun with it.

Cue fans having an autistic fit and going "Can you believe this bullshit? Well Toriyama cuckfags will lap up whatever he shits out, but the rest of us wanted something serious, we wanted Broly to be the secret character, not this BULLSHIT".

Anyone who's surprised by this shit hasn't read DB enough; guy didn't take anything serious during that period of his writing, and all of the designs were strange or humorous.

But why would they? Trunks and goten can be explained because they don't want their kids suddenly transforming into apes and fucking shit up and also to be more normal but for what reason would the universe 6 saiyan not have a tail?

He has no reason to cut it off, giant apes are pretty much the saiyan trump card unless they explain he either lost his tail or why it got cut I'm calling bullshit.

Here's a thought, maybe it's not a Saiyan? Would be funny if he's that universe's Tarble and he's stronger than Vegeta though.

tbqh if you grew up with Toriyama's cock in your ass and your ass got shaped by toriyama, then as an adult, you'll continue to like his dicking. As a child your ass hole is pretty malleable, but as an adult, its molded and can only be made for 1 person.

DAILY REMINDER

I know I keep saying this, but Frost's name isn't going to be Frost in the English localization.

Frost is pronounced with two syllables in Japan (''Fu-rost'') meaning dubbing a single syllable name over that would be impossible for Funimation.

TL;DR

FROST IS MOST LIKELY GOING TO BE CALLED ''FUROSS'' OR SOMETHING IN THE WEST
>>
>>135288373
More like Floss.
>>
>>135288373
>meaning dubbing a single syllable name over that would be impossible for Funimation
why exactly?
>>
>>135288373
Those memers over at dragon ball z abridged do just fine dubbing in whatever they want. If a bunch of amateurs can do it, paid professionals definitely can.
>>
>>135288373
they'll call him frosty
>>
>>135288951

???

For the same reason you can't dub the name ''Bob'' over someone called ''Bobby''. I mean yeah, you COULD, sure.

It would just look like shit.

(By the way, this has happened before. Bills = Beerus anyone?)
>>
>>135288373
>Frost is pronounced with two syllables in Japan (''Fu-rost'') meaning dubbing a single syllable name over that would be impossible for Funimation.

more like fu-ro-su-to
and free-za is actually fu-rii-za in japanese
>>
>>135288373

You're stupid and you're wrong. I could write a few sentences to say why but I'll just be brief.
>>
>>135289577
are you retarded? he meant that funimation could easily edit their mouths to accommodate one syllable words.
>>
>>135288373
>Beer is Bill
>Whis(key) is Weiss

Why are they doing this? They are still thinking too hard about the children.
>>
>>135289880

>thinking Funimation would actually edit the animation of a Toei property whenever that one specific character's name was mentioned

So, I'M the retard?
>>
>>135283139

Tao was very serious shit.

King Piccolo and Piccolo JR were also serious.

There were some moments in Dragon Ball where things got pretty tense. Krillin dying is a HUGE ONE.

Serious moments in a very campy fun show like Dragon Ball were really good, they really brought on the dread in the series.

Dragon Ball Z kinda captured that all around, it wasn't too much of an adventure after Namek though. But I captured the action that Piccolo Jr stuff had.

Broly himself kinda embodied everything Z was.

I suppose DBZ primary fans wanted something that captured the essence of DBZ more as casuals didn't really pay mind to DB.
>>
>>135289802

Well, I'm not, but sure whatever go ahead.
>>
>>135289577
>(By the way, this has happened before. Bills = Beerus anyone?)
the fuck are you talking about

Bills is just a retarded name used in shit subtitles. His name was originally created based on Virus, and then Toriyama decided to go with an alcoholic drink theme instead. Why would it ever be Bills?Both the English dub and Japanese audio say Beerus.
>>
>>135290166
You know they re do the lip movements for almost every bit of dialogue, right? It isn't that hard.

This isn't a retro godzilla movie, they can make the mouths of characters sync with the english script.
>>
>Goku's reaction for Gohan not be there
So, until when will Goku allow this? Or someone else really. Even Videl, Mr.Satan or Dende(yeah, he still is earth's god) are there.
>>135273883
If this shit was 15 years ago people would laugh saying that was fake because of Freeza's clone(oh look at those boots! no feet like freeza!!) or that namek/cell/pikkon thing. Now it's okay because it's "AT's work".
>>135284607
>saiyans with tails were actually stronger than without tails
>later on the series scrap this out
It was the perfect opportunity to bring this back, but nope.
>>
>>135273869
Why is toei animation it? Did they choose to pick it up or someone went with them?
>>
>>135283139
>You have a lot of comedy
Yeah, but no erotic stuff because we are not on the 80s or until mid 90s anymore which sucks.
And I don't like how characters look today. Almost everyone is skinny as hell, compared with that DB early style where there were differences bewteen characters. AT's girls looked great, like early Bulma or Ran Fan. Then later you get to the Android saga they start getting thinnier. Now even Goku is like that, compared to what he was on Piccolo Jr or Saiyan sagas.
>>135290168
And Blue was a pedo and Goku kills a bunch of RR army guys because "fuck you, you are in my way". Shit gets serious with Tao though. He kills right off Upa's dad, then he defeats easily someone who was on par with fucking Roshi.
Krillin dying was a big thing back then, then Roshi and Chaoz dies(but who cared except Ten) and then THE DRAGON DIES because Piccolo did a smart move. Back then nobody thought that they could bring the dragon back or that King Piccolo was a bad part of someone else or that someone could be two halves of himself.

They also said only 2 people could be inside but in the Buu saga Gotenks, Piccolo and Buu were all in.

Let's just say Dende upgraded it.

This should help. It take into account both biological and actual age.

>>135283139
Stop using this stupid division Toei made. Each arc is more serious than the last one except for Buu arc.
>>
>>135283139
Stupid terms aside. RoF was pretty "DBZ".

Also just because it's humorous doesn't mean it's like early DB. I've enjoyed a couple of Super chapters (not episodes) but it's not the same style in any way. People say the same shit about Buu arc too.
>>
>>135296452
I though champa was going to get more than 1 sayan, kinda dissapointed here, I wanted to see them, but now that I think about it, sayans (except for the main characters) aren't that big of a a deal, so that might explain it
>>
>>135273539
He might just be a gag, like he innately has time magic and to any third party observer he's slow as fuck and just able to make Beerus move even slower since the Gods of Destruction are held in check by the time fuckery of Whys and Sis. Beerus just through he was that good without realizing why.
>>
>>135294759
Take off your Miyazaki-hand-drawn-animation nostalgia goggles. This is mediocre at best. They use the same animation frames for most of that fight which makes the fight choreography look lazy.

I am not sure if the people who are defending DBS are doing it as a joke or are being serious. How could anyone in their right mind defend that shitty character and the rehashed designs of Chompa's fighters?

I guess that's when Saiyans start aging like milk then, as Toriyama said they would.

Damn, they're lucky.

>>135296382

What about the Buu Arc isn't more serious then Cell Arc?

Buu himself was silly, but shit was completely dire.
Vegeta died, everyone thought Gohan died, Goku was dead, strongest villain of the series at the point is having the time of his life killing the inhabitants of Earth, the only hope was 2 little kids mastering some ghost alien space magic.

Buu not only succeeds in killing every living thing on the planet, but turns the major cast into candy and eats them and later successfully blows up the planet.

Buu arc was the most serious arc in the entire series.

I love how vegeta and goku are becoming friends.
even though vegeta hates goku he still tolerates him.
I'm just surprised their training with whis is done. hopefully he got too busy with the tornament.
I am loving the design of all these characters, even Monka our nipple lord and savior.
If you didn't expect this from Dragonball then you are an idiot.

No you're pretty wrong. There's no reason for them to keep the same amount of syllables for every name. They've done so before like with Bulma, Tien, Cell etc
