Gohan technically shouldn't have felt Buuhan or Vegitto, though; he wasn't around to do so.

This is why a creator of a famous franchise should never cave in to fans stupidity.

The story of Goku was meant to end with Cell. The era of Gohan was the next step, but Akira gave in made Goku the main character again.

Vegeta's character development go so messed up, it's even worse than whore getting a train ran on her.

Unlike Goku, Gohan wasn't so 1 dimensional as a character. Fighting wasn't all he cared for. He was fighter while at the same wanting a normal life.

DBS is even worse since Akira is focusing on only Goku and Vegeta, while magically forgetting everyone else.

Gohan who is by far at the end of the Buu saga the strongest non fused character is nothing but a fodder for mere underling to slap away.

I miss the days when DB fights were more about the Martial Arts and not just shooting blast willy nily and taking 5 eps just to power up.

Dont think Buuhan could kill Gohan with a single hit. He was powerful but not that powerful.

God forbid no one's allowed to have a different opinion concerning a series they grew up watching right?

Seems like everyone is enjoying the new dragonball episodes more than anything tbh. It's getting a lot of rep. Akira, keep it coming.

woot

You have to admit that this series does have a lot of padding and fanservice. It get annoying when you find out that there's really no excuse to drag the series out like this either.

Still enjoy this series but I don't suck Tori's dick and act like it's perfect either. Most, if not all of Squall's criticisms there were valid.

And I guess this should go without saying, but the animation of how they showed Planet Vegeta exploding looked piss poor compared to how the old Toei would've done it...

Wouldn't be surprised if he was able to, tbh. Full force, direct hit... why not.

Super Buu alone had immense power. Add Goten, Trunks, Kamiccolo and Gohan and you have enough power to potentially one-shot Gohan.

Creators should be as stalwart to fans as a mountain to the wind. God bless George Lucas for being a shining example of a creator who didn't cave to the whims of his silly fans.

I think Hideaki Anno would've fit that example better for the whole fan pandering thing. End of Evangelion turned out to be absolute gold because of it.

I went back and rewatched it and I found the Super example to look a lot crisper and cleaner. You can tell they tried to make it look old but it still looked a lot better than the previous Vegeta blowing up scenes

Hideaki is a anime creator who utterly hates the fans anime has. I don't think he counts. He is more likely to do the utter opposite of what fans want rather than just ignoring it.

Why don't you give me 3 things DBS has done that's superior to the original DB saga.

I'll make it easier for you by telling you what i want.

Plot wise
Character's motivation/development
Fighting Techiniques

Meh. I still prefer the Bardock movie version of Vegeta's destruction, not to mention the way you see Bardock slowly disintegrate along with his planet left much more an impact.

Disappointed they took out the night club joke.

Broly should have been made canon.

why?

It was a rush scene in super. It wasn't meant to be shown in a lot of detail. Especially since everyone already knew what happened.
