The entire Android Saga is Bulma's fault anyway.

• Had she not interrupted Piccolo's fight, he would have taken out Android 20 before 16, 17 and 18 got reactivated.
• Had she, at any point, remembered that her dad totally knows the one guy with android development history, they could have killed him years ago.
• Had she not given Krillin, of all people, the remote detonator, then Androids 18 and 17 would have been taken out.
• Had she not taken out 16's bomb and then not told him, Cell would have been destroyed (maybe) slightly earlier.
• Had she invented a time machine that actually works properly, Trunks wouldn't be late to every important event.

This is mostly correct. Goku would have been against the whole kill Gero thing (they had considered gathering the Dragon Balls to find Gero and kill him off but he nixed it because he hadn't done anything wrong/he wanted to fight androids.

17 was already taken by the time Krillin got the remote. Spot on about the other two. Trunks really could have just shown up a week early for the Android attack so that's partially on him.

This Noh Mask episode is such a buzz kill after the thunder brothers fight

Aww come on, the Modern Day episodes are fun!

I always thought piccolo as a black person, he just came off that way to me and my cousins.

Me too, in the french dub,english and japanese he still come off to me as a black person.

Is there one big DBZ game that covers the whole series?

Budokai Tenkaichi 3 for PS2/Wii covers the entire plot as far as I can remember from Dragon Ball to GT and almost all if not all of the Z movies.

PS2 and Wii? Shit. Sometimes I forget how old DBZ is.

 

[Crocodile]

I have a feeling if DB was a modern day Manga, the entire internet (or at least English speaking internet) would be faceplaming after each new chapter. The NeoGaf Manga thread would probably be hilarious to read:

"Dragon Ball Chapter 372

____________ dropped the ball again! Anything to drag this arc out even longer huh? God Toriyama is such a fuckin' HACK! I can't believe this is still running and ____________ got cancelled after only 2 volumes. Jump will publish any sort of drivel. No justice in this world!"

To be fair he never did want to go on after Cell. Shit I remember reading how he wanted to do a soft reboot after Freeza.

I like InuYasha in the modern world now that he's here, just the monster of the day is lame compared to his Sessohmaru and the thunder brothers.

Bro their are NES games that cover up to the Cell saga

Luckily for Toriyama the manga during the Buu arc becomes quite funny in places. It honestly drags more during the Cell saga.

Those were urban legends that were debunked a few years back.

bringing this conversation around to FMA, I want to watch/read silver spoon, how good is it?

 

[grandjedi6]

Bulma suggested they use the DBs to find Gero and stop him from making Androids, Goku and Vegeta were like STFU we need plot.

This is mostly correct. Goku would have been against the whole kill Gero thing (they had considered gathering the Dragon Balls to find Gero and kill him off but he nixed it because he hadn't done anything wrong/he wanted to fight androids.

17 was already taken by the time Krillin got the remote. Spot on about the other two. Trunks really could have just shown up a week early for the Android attack so that's partially on him.

I suppose criticizing Goku's lack of preventative action would be to summarize the entirety of Dragonball at this point.

Don't they have jails or something they could've thrown Gero in? lol

See the thing is with Goku's character is that as Roshi pointed out: he's mostly a guy who just enjoys challenges and fighting is his outlet. In that sense he's pure and naive. The English Dub tries to change him into ALLY TOO GOOD, NIGHTMARE TO YOU Superman type guy.

Full Metal Alchemist came out in 2003. A decade ago.

 

[Gucci Messiah]

So when you said I was Trunks are we talking Future Trunks or Kid Trunks?



"He was so weak we could literally grow Raditz"

Future

InuYasha 12

Normally I like happy endings, but that stupid brat Mayu didn't deserve one. After nearly murdering her mother and brother countless times, hurting all those who came near them, and being the cause of her own death by disobeying her mother when alive and hiding in the closet during a GOD DAMN FIRE she deserved to get dragged to hell.

Who are we talking about here?

I still remember the exact year, and yet the author didnt finish the story until 2011, it was worth it, but still.

 

[BassForever]

This stupid brat

 

[Raxus]

Who are we talking about here?

I am confused as hell too.

Ah Inuyasha.

 

[Schadenfreude]

Inuyasha noobs. I knew exactly what he was talking about. Sidenote: I agree completely. Evil Pac-Man should have taken her.

Awww, let up. I haven't seen Inuyasha in years and only caught some Toonami episodes.

Yeah, what exactly was the spirit piper doing for so long? He just watched her nearly kill people for 6 months and then finally decided "oh I guess I should punish her now". Then he just lets her go because she wants to "make up with mommy"? How about making up with your brother you nearly MURDERED or all the people who tried to clean up your house that you ATTACKED

 

[Gucci Messiah]

How long is Inuyasha going to be on toonami? Is it worth me marathoning 80+ episodes to try and catch up in a couple of weeks?

 

[Man God]

In that timeslot with those numbers? Forever.

It'll only ever change slots if they decide to show Final Act.

this i do agree with. i usually have a high tolerance for annoying characters, but god damn that little girl deserved to get dragged to hell

 

[BassForever]

Well the series is 160ish episodes and they do 2 a week, I think episode 89/90 just aired so they have at least 70 more episodes or 35 weeks to show. Potentially more if they get final act.

Edit: For what it's worth I'm trying to marathon and catch up

I hope they do give us Final Act eventually. Been waiting to watch that for ages.

inyuasha is one of those shows that will constantly be rerunned

 

[Man God]

Ok I just got to the ensemble version of Dragon Soul in the Kai dub, it's hilarious.

 

[everyday math]

You know what show I would love to see on Toonami or maybe back on Adult Swim?

Detective Conan. Used to set my alarm to 3am to watch it on Adult Swim I liked it so much.

I'll play catch-up then, Schadenfreude and Seda could probably use the company

Agreed. If toonami got an increased budget I would love to see a classic weekday block. Imagine this:

Mon through Fri
9:00 PM - Yu Yu Hakusho
9:30 PM - Rurouni Kenshin
10:00 PM - G Gundam
10:30 PM - Detective Conan

*drools*

YES! That gets crazy good. That said I'd only say go for it if we could cut the 250+ episodes of filler.

InuYasha 13

Seeing InuYasha as a human was pretty fun, this show does a good job of having vignettes that add to the overall story in subtle ways. I guess that's what makes it such a great rewatch if you know the basics a lot of episodes could air in any order.

 

[Schadenfreude]

So much this. Case Closed was the best thing ever. Dat music when Conan was solving the case. So good. Bring it back, Lich King.

 

[Man God]

I love Case Closed's art. Love love love it. It's clear though why it failed. Too adult for toonami, too kiddy seeming for Adult Swim despite having a murder count roughly equivalent to Bleach.

 

[B-Dubs]

The crazy thing is that they stopped dubbing episodes right before it actually starts to get good. So if you think it was good from what you saw you have no idea man.

More people die in one 13 episode run of Case Closed than have died in all of Bleach.

I'll never know. I refuse to see anyone but Jerry Jewell voice Jimmy Kudo.

 

[BassForever]

Case Closed/Detective Conan is one of this biggest back log titles I have, I'm hyped to read/watch it. I'm just scared it's going to suck weeks of my life to catch up

 

[Man God]

But everyone in Bleach is dead/half dead/undead! I guess I didn't word my joke right.

 

[B-Dubs]

I'd say just read the manga. The anime has more filler than Inuyasha has episodes.

It's one of those things I wish someone could pick up so they can get back to dubbing, there were some really really good episodes of Case Closed.

Doesn't it have more chapters than One Piece though? I'd never be done!
