I only like Broly/Buu anything else is just no.

Audiences consist of fans.

Which Buu? And I'm confused. Are you saying you only like those two characters or that you only like the films featuring them/their arcs.

So, Goten and Trunks actually get to appear against Freeza. One of the things I disliked about RoF.

And Ginyu taking over Tagoma's body...that would be hilarious if that's how it actually goes.

Fanboys aren't categorized as the audience in my book.

Yes I am stating I like the two characters.

The Broly movies were PIS to the core
Buu any form should have won but you know PIS spirit bomb and power uping goku 24/7.

I watched Dragon Ball growing up
I read dragon ball growing up

It's just the fact Goku "Was" my 2nd favorite til I joined the internet and saw how much of a bad character he actually was as a father/hero.

I'm not trash talking but DB has lost my respect I can debate it and etc but I wont fanboy and state its the strongest/best anime series because its not.

If you only like Broly, who isn't canon, and Buu then you should probably avoid the series. It's clearly not your thing. I know tons of people that gave up on series even when they liked more than two characters.

I thought you'd hate Broly too given how much of his fans say he's a galaxy buster and all that. Appreciate the honesty though still. Used to like Goku as a character more back in the day too till I eventually saw his character for what it is... 😬

Other than that, what Aura said.

I'm not getting the dislike for Goku as a character. A bit static sure but he's perfectly serviceable.

crazy how they are one shotting planets with just normal physical attacks. Just so how strong they really are outside of energy attacks.

They were also tanking eachother shots like nothing. Pretty crazy feat right there.

To me, their new abilities show improvement. They are still growing after all these years. Just like all the series before it. Each new installment always takes another leap over the last, I enjoy that.

What's really scary is, if you think about it, Whis can likely take on Beerus, Champa, Freeza, Goku, and Vegeta at once and more than likely win. I was very surprised that even in the flashback, Whis was still able to incapacitate Beerus with a quick strike. I would assume that Beerus was at 100% considering he was facing off against his twin who was very angry at the time.

You all need to understand that BG is an impressionable 10 year old, that saw a video on Youtube, explaining how bad of a father Goku is. I mean, how could he not be a good father? He wasn't even present for the first seven years of Goten's life.

...

Oh yeah, he was dead.

Anyway, as an impressionable child, he considers wild and uncontrollable characters like Broly and Buu to be like, super totally radical, dudes.

Why hasn't his account been banned yet?

^
Buu is personally my favorite DBZ villain. Much for the simplistic reason you stated.

Possibly one of the best posts you ever made. Sums him up exactly.

Not only that, but Gotenks got to have another moment too.

Turns out it was... That alone made today's episode worth watching, though the ending was painful.

Oh, and I like how that RoSaT esque place surrounded with god ki Goku and Vegeta got sent to somewhat explained how they attained super saiyan blue.

Being dead is not an excuse actually, it's a cop out. If there was no way to bring Goku back to life, then that's understandable. Don't forget that Goku choose to stay dead because he felt his presence was an endangerment to the Earth. But what happened yrs later? Another villain attacked.

It's not like Goku staying dead meant he was finally at rest, but all the guy did was train. Goku was training even more dead then when he was alive. He had to responsibility as a husband nor Father.

Goku's the epitome of being a bad husband and father. Hell, Piccolo was a better father to Gohan.

It Goku didn't have kids, or he wasn't married, then him choosing to stay wouldn't have been so bad. But the man abandoned his family just so he could train.

DBS even highlighted on that part. It shows that Goku is so useless outside of fighting, that it was Chichi's father that was taking care of his family financially. It's even worse that Chichi had to force Goku to get a job because her father went broke.

Maybe he like Broly and Buu because of there simplicity. Being simplistic is not always a bad thing. But let's not also pretend anyone in Dragonball is a deep rooted well written character now. The only 2 that might fit that profile were early Dragon Ball Piccolo, and early Z Vegeta. Even with there back story they were still simplistic.

Wanting someone ban because you don't like him/her. The same thing can be asked on why you're not ban either, pretty sure BG don't like you either.

It was kinda lame how Gotenks got like two seconds of screen time before changing back. Why did they even fuse before getting there?

Poor Piccolo, cause Gohan doesn't know how to dodge. But it was funny how Goten and Trunks thought Ginyu and his poses were cool.

You can only be dead for a year before the Dragonballs won't bring you back. The Androids and Cell were specifically created to get revenge on Goku. Yeah Buu happened but Goku had no way of knowing that that would occur.

Responsibility as a father and husband? Tell me who Goku learned to be a husband and father from again? Some old fart who lived alone in the woods. You and I were taught that a man who doesn't provide is not a man at all but Goku has no such baggage. So long as his family eats(which literally involves catching giant fish) then they have all they need.

Yeah great guy Piccolo. All fathers should take children from their mothers and force them to live in the wilderness at age 6.

Once again Goku doesn't know the concept of a nuclear family that one abandons. So long as they can eat(Gohan can fish) then he doesn't need to come back out of any moral obligation to his family.

Ox King was a king. The fact that he went broke implies he was recklessly spending too much money and in no way can you blame that on Goku. Besides, Ox King had murdered people in the past solely to protect his treasure so it is fitting that he loses it all. The fact that Goku has always lived an austere lifestyle doesn't make him a bad dad lol. Giving Cell a senzu remains the most questionable moment his tenor of fatherhood.

By the way no one wanted BG banned because they disliked him. We wanted him banned because he continued to make threads that basically devolved into trolling back and forth. He liked to bait and he liked to insult, no more no less. He might not have thought he was doing so and he might have had good intentions but actions define a person and he acted rather badly. Which is not to say others haven't but it is the mod's decision to decide who crosses the line, not yours or mine.

Wow they are changing up RoF a bit. I don't mind it though

You gotta remember thst goku comes from a race where "proper parenting" is launching your baby into space hoping it will kill all indigous life on a panet andten picking it up twenty years later. I'm just surprised vegeta turned out as good as he did.

Well Vegeta grew up with his dad in the palace so he's naturally a bit spoiled.
