McDougal doesn't seem like a long-term villain, heh.

Galactic leyline?

They aren't the main villains by a long shot.

Razor is not one to be fucked with.

I do like Phinks was legit shook and didn't even try attacking him

Outlaw Star 03
-When do we get the paintball arc.
-Don't really like Aisha's voice, though maybe it is because she had to do a lot of exaggerated shrieking in these scenes. The random chanting/yelling that her crew does is pretty funny though.
-I'd leave Jim on the guns, he seemed to have perfect aiming in the asteroid field.
-I'm not buying these Macdougall guys are really brothers.
-Demoted for that? Pretty strict governor.

Cowboy Bebop 01
-Not a fan of anything that involves putting a sharp point near your eye.
-One bite man.
-These old guys are fairly funny
-Pretty cool cigarette toss at the end. Smoking is bad!

Good first episode. This show might have potential.

Meanwhile in endless trash news.

This is fine.

Yeah, not surprising? They got rid of Greenlight.

Jaws vs JoJo

You can feel the blood lust

 

[RadioHeadAche]

Are there video games and a collectible card game based on greed island? This whole arc really feels like there would be.

Nope. Nen's almost too complicated to make into a video game, but people would complain if you didn't get it right. And Greed Island can't be made into a TCG without changing the rules completely.

...I wonder if they sell real life replicas of Greed Island cards, though...

 

[Korigama]

They aren't the main villains by a long shot.

Quite, just ones that drop in just enough to cause problems. The younger brother definitely being the more...unhinged of the two (I'm just going to leave it at that for anyone who hasn't seen the show yet).

 

[cntr]

Having an early-game villain for the initial arc feels like the kind of thing series like Outlaw Star do. I thought the McDougal Brothers were that as soon as they mentioned them by name, tbh.

Would you fuck with a buff dude wearing a muscle shirt that tight?

 

[caliph95]

Lol

it just that the Troupe more is "try to stop us and in the way *neck snapped into a helicopter*"

Like if it was anyone else Phinks will tell him to fuck off

Watching Jojo

"Can you beat my Stand, brother"

Didn't know Liquid/Hogan was in Jojo

I'm honestly surprised, but aren't there a bunch of HxH games? Not one involves nen?

Yeah, but I don't think they go that in-depth? I mean, nothing like what an ideal Greed Island game would be.

 

[BatDan]

That realization that Nen is basically the Dragon Quest job system.

 

[Morlas]

I prefer devil fruits, you eat a disgusting piece of fruit, boom instant super power

HxH's entire world is basically Dragon Quest.

Pokkle is close enough to the Dragon Quest V protagonist.

 

[cntr]

I like how JRPG HxH's world is. There should be more series like that!

HxH would make a perfect tabletop RPG, imo.

I mean Razor is pretty much a Pillar Man in HxH. You just do what he says.

 

[Morlas]

About the universe 6 saiyans not being buff and stuff i think that's mainly a result of Toriyama's artstyle changing over the years he prefers to draw characters lean nowadays as opposed to the big muscles of the 80s

 

[cntr]

I'm pretty sure it's more that the Universe 6 Saiyans are meant to be like the inverse of Universe 7 Saiyans. Cabba being confused about the tail thing means they're biologically different too. So they're pretty chill peacekeepers rather than brutal genociders.

...basically, Universe 6 is the good universe and 7 the bad.

U6 has tons of interesting characters. Can't wait to hear them all.

It's Eric Vale?

I think so? Not sure.

 

[Jarate]

can I just say it

Villain designs of Universe 6 is pretty bad. Hit is the only decent design, but even then, it's not the best.

Winnie the Pooh is so dumb.

Spoiler

I still love dragon ball and im super happy with Super

 

[caliph95]

Do you mean the gray alien dude

 

[cntr]

They're not villains. Makes sense they're mostly goofy designs.

 

[Morlas]

Yeah they're not villains, just fighters champa found

 

[caliph95]

Especially Cabbage

 

[BatDan]

So I just realized, Nu-Powerpuff Girls is pulling a Poochie.
Ratings are low, bring in a new "hip" character to try and save it even though it completely changes the dynamic of the show. Then have the new character shilled as "cool and awesome".

It's like the writers took the completely wrong lesson from that.

Shoulda brought back the original writers for that...and the original voices

I should have said antagonist as opposed to villain

Just in comparison here's the other "squad" the Z fighters fought against in the Buu Arc. Pui Pui and Yakon are damn cool looking for being as jobber as they are. Dabura is probably my favorite villain from the Buu arc

 

[Man God]

HxH's entire world is basically Dragon Quest.

Ultra libertarian DQ.

While i agree about Yakon, Pui Pui is the lamest

...Did you say that before, or after knowing that he shares Whamuu's voice actor in the dub?

(Though I kinda wish they saved his voice for someone later. But, maybe he can still be around for that)
