Qaoity is imörtant! Thats why did this:
A few years back I made a comment on a TFS abridged episode. This was back when they claimed that the show was non profit at the start of every single episode. I told them that they should tear down that disclaimer because they were obviously profiteering with their gaming channel and their t-shirts. I got like a hundred negative replies from TFS fanboys and surprisingly I got a hate fueled reply from I think it was Kaiserneko (the gay one). It was odd because TFS never freaking replies to youtube comments since they get a million of them. I must have pressed a button. Anyway after I said this they stopped claiming that their show was non-profit.

I can't say how relieved I am that others in this thread are calling out Super for being the complete clusterfuck it is.

Every goddamn episode, some completely unnecessary inconsistency or character-derailing moment is thrown in for shits and giggles. It feels like Toei and/or Toriyama are TRYING to shit on their own series.

Power scaling is all over the damn place, you literally can't even make a solid guess on how strong half the cast is. Piccolo and Frieza get some of the most ridiculous boosts in the entire series. "But if Frieza did it, why can't anyone!?"

Goku becomes a completely unbearable cunt with no personality aside from annoying fight junkie, and suddenly, "muh original japanese goku, not meant to be a hero"

He's always been a flawed dipshit, but in the original manga, he showed plenty of examples of wanting to defend others. Flawed judgement/bad decisions=/=complete apathy

All I want to do is punch DBS Goku in the goddamn face, but he'd probably love that, too.

And that's just the tip of the goddamn iceberg.

>inb4 GT

It's shit, too. But I'll give it one thing, its characters didn't look like cardboard cutouts in every other shot.

Was refraining from posting this in a new thread, but old one got archived whilst I was typing it out.

Well the closest to Freeza tier villain is one that I would say would be slightly above Freeza final form, I dunno maybe #16 tier I guess? The power scaling was always kinda weird in DBZ once they got back to Earth because Freeza was a planet busting villain.

Anyway the fight kinda goes with smugpup and side characters going against him first, they all eventually get their shit wrecked with only smugpup standing (who I'd say is at around low SSJ level at that point), a side character is killed off who serves as the main rival character's plot fuelled power up. Smugpup is incapacitated by this point, so the rival character now at around his level (if not above) takes over.

During this time the designated walking senzu bean (who can fight to a degree himself) uses the last of his power to heal smugpup. This leads to Smugpup and his rival (finally) working together, this taking a long time given his rival contributed to the murder of smugpup's father in cold blood.

Being on almost equal terms against the two of them, the main villain of that saga combines himself with this giant obliterate cannon and goes up into orbit in order to take out everyone on the planet.

The way they beat him is smugpup uses an improvised Wan Tan Dan to put all of his energy into his rival, of which the designated tech wizard person takes control of what's left of the cannon on the planet to propel "The Rival" out into orbit where he kicks the villain so hard with the wantandan energy condensed into his foot that his own leg explodes off.

The fights with the next main villain gets even more ridiculous but I really want to refrain from beam struggles, or "EVERYONE LEND ME YOUR ENERGY" techniques. Thanks for your time in reading this autism.

It's not that "retarded", people should stop overreacting. DBZ had lots of flaws too, the only thing about DBS that is objectively bad is the quality of drawings/animation but in spirit it's pretty faithful to the universe.

Funny how people bitched and called GT trash because of things like 17+17 being able to stand up to SS4. Now 17 fighting on par with SSB after training with poachers in DBS is being fiercely defended.

Nice answer faggot.
Please talk with fucking words and explain why "retarded" is a good description. Also powerlevels are off, but the characters are way more themselves and more interesting than they were in most of the Z period. Tori is GOAT but he completely forgot about some his rules and techniques that Super brought back, not even talking about the characters that basically became useless like Krilin, whereas in Super he had a really nice episode to talk about him, and not just being Goku's dog or a spectator.

I'd dig up every single one of my old posts explaining why Super's characters have lost all personality and have become husks of their former selves but I'm too tired to at the moment. Either you're new here and have never read my own, or any other anon's grievances in full detail over why the characters in Super are written so incredibly poorly to the point they're unlikable and no fun to watch, or you've been sitting around blissfully unaware of it.

It's not a case of you giving up, it's case of you just insulting others with a conflicting opinions to your own and never arguing your own point across clearly, or with any real substance or grounding.

>It's not a case of you giving up, it's case of you just insulting others with a conflicting opinions
Conflicting opinions themselves are not an insult, and I'm not developping less than people being hateful towards the show. Anyway, about the characters : I feel like most people confuse what the characters were back in Z and what they are supposed to evolve into. Gohan is the perfect example of this. Goku's current "evil" egotistic attitude is also very Goku-like and the way his broken level evolved past the gods affects people around him is a good idea to give something new to the character. Vegeta was always about becoming more "human" after being Goku's ennemy and him caring about his family is part of that.
I don't know, what character do you think is off? (I'll admit the only one I hate in Super is Videl, which turned into a ridiculously bland tolr of mother instead of being a character)
>>
>>156457160
Goku is too stupid and carefree. He's always been a little, but he also used to think and worry about things. He's more of a parody of himself right now.

I like goku. Hes alway had a big inpact to me. Hes fights, his ways of testing his opponents in combat always looking to being out his best. Im the same way when i play baskerball. I like to see how goog you are so i can get better. Now, i feel that for goku to beat jin he would need more than just kio-ken. But then we see him fighting jin in his base form so im thinking, is that how he start off? Or is he holding back to see the difference is both their power

For one you're going around sinking to people's levels who don't want to bother discussing with you by calling them retarded.

That aside:
Goku - Turned from guy who likes to fight and know when to dial it down and deal with problems to guy who only likes to fight, fuck the consequences.
spends his time doing everything we don't want in a shonen battle show.

18, Videl - Boring housewives with no personalities anymore.

Chi Chi - Regressed from her character development during the Buu Saga from a more relaxed, more understanding mother back to being insufferable one trick megabitch.

Beerus - Nothing more than a goofy fuckup who interrupts the pacing of every episode. A huge fall from grace from his introduction in Battle of Gods

17 - Apathetic rock. Apparently "becoming mature" means you become an uninteresting idiot.

Future Trunks - Had personality flaws in Z to reduce his Mary Sue status, had a burning prejudice against androids. Now he's just "I'm a nice guy fighting the good fight there's absolutely nothing negative or interesting about me anymore"

Future Mai - The most artificial love story ever, doesn't even mention Future PIlaf or Shu, the comrades of the majority of her life.

Piccolo - Defeatist, gives up against Frost because Goku told him to. Barely gets relevant screen time now.

Goten - Chi Chi's bitch now. Literally doesn't exist now.

Yamcha, Tenshinhan, Chiaotzu - Almost non-existant, Yamcha is just a meme now.

Mr Satan - Literally just doing the same thing from Z, nothing has changed AT ALL but I don't expect it to

I'll move onto the characters that didn't get it as bad but are still flawed for various other reasons in my next post.
>>
>>156457408

Eh? I imagine it'd be a lot higher since him and 19 were pretty strong even though they couldn't beat trained SSJs.
>>
>>156457363
I miss when Goku got mad to the point there was no WAKU for him.
>>
>>156457680
Let's be honest, with how the characters are handled, being almost non-existent is a blessing.
>>
>>156457723
Goku was suffering from heart virus before he fought 19 and Super saiyan only made it worse. Goku wasn't fighting at even 1/4th of his real power and Gero was only slightly stronger than 19. Vegeta was only toying with 19 too.
>3:30
>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fSNtBhVAqhM
>>
>>156457680
Characters who have gotten it good / not as bad

Bulma - Bulma might not be the slut she was back on Dragon Ball, or the mega bitch she was in Dragon Ball Z, but has become the reliable smooth talker of the group. I still like Bulma.

Vegeta - Probably the character with the most development, the problem I have with Vegeta is that he's developed too much from what made him popular in the first place, leaving him with very little room to progress from here on out.

Kid Trunks - He's grown to be more confident and reliable, and less impulsive, but still has spunk and fire within him. Too bad he's barely relevant.

Buu - One dimensional manchild bubblegum demon remains a one dimensional manchild bubblegum demon

Oolong and Puar - Oolong remains faithful to his old self. Puar gets the scene where he pretends to be Beerus, which I loved.

Super is undoubtedly going in a terrible direction and at this rate I honestly don't see any future in the series.

NONE of the new characters have had ANY real character development, nor have we really developed any proper attachment to them without making headcanons or memeing the fuck out. The fact you're even suggesting that the characters are true to what they were, or implying it's moving in a good direction is something I, and most of the fanbase can and will not agree with.
>>
>>156457892
Even at 1/5th power, Goku is still at a minimum of 30 mil and that's assuming he didn't get a single bit stronger since his fight with Frieza on Namek, which is false. So you can assume he's quite a bit stronger than even that. Vegeta was at roughly the same level. Saying Gero was at 3 mil is really dumb. They're definitely close to 100% Frieza at the very least.

Piccolo has always been strong and always grown quickly. He's no SSJ but with Nail and training with Goku I wouldn't deny Piccolo being a lot stronger than on Namek. There's definitely no way he didn't grow to more than what Goku was at on Namek in his base form in the span of 4 fucking years.

It was pretty obvious that Goku was dying from the SS strain and heart virus while fighting 19, and it was just a game to Vegeta. If Goku had been at even 1/5th strength he would have killed 19 with a single punch.

The heart virus didn't really start kicking in until after he started fighting as a SSJ. If 19 and Gero were only 3 mil, he would have won with his very first hit. Same applies to Vegeta, who was mostly bluffing during his fight. He took some damage and lost a lot of energy but it was worth it.

Vegeta was popular because he was the unpredictable hotheaded prideful asshole who fucked things up for the protagonists. His sheer envy at Goku being one step ahead being his motive for even existing was a major part of his character. Almost everyone watching wanted him to slowly see the light and finally fight for the side of good, and to find new meaning in life.

Well it's happened. Hooray.

Ok so now he's a better family man than Kakarot ever was, but where to from here? Is watching a tsundere family man Vegeta more entertaining than what we got from him out of Z? It's not TERRIBLE but I can not say with confidence that it's better than Z's Vegeta,

Vegeta gave him a free hit because he just didnt care. The only way for the Android 19 to be stronger than 3 million is if 19 was actually far stronger than Gero, and Gero was just bluffing about his own power. Piccolo couldn't have been at fucking SS level.

That's why he taunted Goku with the death of his family? Because good guys act like that right?

>immature child when losing
Funny, since anime Zamasu's main motivation is that he's butthurt about losing to Goku.
>>
>>156458615
So why did it make him bleed? If they're that weak he shouldn't have even bled and Gero would have taken more damage from Goku's punch since his base form is stronger than 3 mil at that point.
I'd wager that 19 and Gero were around or slightly above 100 mil with Gero being weaker than 19 and Piccolo stronger than Gero. Both SSJ Goku and Vegeta being a good amount stronger than the 150 mil SSJ Goku was at on Namek.

OK U6, lackluster character designs, already negative points for that, now onto personalities:

Botamo and Magetta - Highly implied to be friends, we have nothing but one trick gimmick ponies right now, with one that just goes toot toot.

Frost - Freeza clone. doesn't even have the fun megalomaniacal personality of Freeza - No development in manga, potential ruined in anime.

Champa - Annoying fat Beerus, not even endearing, just annoying

Vados - Barely says anything, doesn't even get to be a female Whis as a result

Hit - Less personality than anything in Keanu Reeves' acting career. Cool techniques, absolutely dull character.. The stoic silent assassin just doesn't work unless the series revolves around that character. Dragon Ball Super is not that kind of series.

Zamasu / Black - Semi-interesting concept, finally a villain with a slightly deeper (but not well fleshed out) motive. If we have a villain with a deeper motive it needs to be well written and thought out, not "Let's roll with god who has the same thought process as a high school social reject".

The reason I really don't see them as decent villains outside of their meme potential is that the fanbase, for a series like Super, should never have to pseudo-intellectualize on teenage, sociopath tendencies and narcissistic psychology to fill in the gaps in character establishment in a series like Dragon Ball. The world and depth of writing simply does not set up the means for it aesthetically. As wonderful as the original Japanese voice acting for Zamasu and Black were, the characters themselves are so poorly written that it ruined any potential they had in the first place.

Gowasu - barely does anything in the anime, Shin and Gowasu were the two I actually liked more in the manga because they actually participated and did something. Otherwise Gowasu is also just a meme with very little development,

I'll move onto U9 and U11 in my next post.

As I said, Vegeta isn't in a terrible position in terms of story telling, it's just that far less people will find him interesting now, especially that he's constantly playing second fiddle to Goku.

U9 Rou and Trio de Dangers:

Saturday morning cartoon villains, literally just Dick Rou Dastardly and 3 Mutleys
On a character design perspecitve:
What the fuck is wrong with Bergamo's muscles?
I also hate bipedal digitigrade character designs - standing up on your hind legs like that would put you at risk of toppling forwards constantly unless you moved around on all fours. It looks stupid and its unaesthetic nature fucks me off.

tl;dr one dimensional easily forgettable cackling chucklefucks

U11 - Super Sentai gimmick squad 2.0
Have yet to see more of them, they haven't really had much screentime, and whatever little I see of them I enjoy, but I can't see them really becoming major characters at this point.

With everything I've mentioned and complained about the old characters, there has been a HUGE personality vacuum. This would've been a PERFECT OPPORTUNITY to introduce a new character (or even several) to become major characters who actually have an influence on everyone.

Currently we have nothing of the sort, and we're just left with a void that just keeps growing with nothing to fill it with.

Never intended to be any significantly weaker than Frieza. This is Toriyama's MO. Goku's group are stronger because they trained. Gero himself absorbed some of Vegeta's energy.

Even if they were only in the 10 million mark they would be significantly above that from the drink alone.

Let's not forget Gero also sucked Yamcha dry.
>>
>>156459980
>no one really ever liked him at all
Speak for yourself, faggot
>>
>>156460126
In the Jap dub after Piccolo gets drained by Gero, Piccolo says that Gero barely absorbed anything at all because Piccolo was suppressing his power when it happened. That's why Gero was no match for Piccolo even after absorbing his energy. The energy drain didn't alter their power much at all.
>>
>>156460199
I liked 17

I just don't find 17 interesting in the 2 episodes we've seen him in. He's just incredibly boring and poorly written. The only decent thing we have is his status update.
>>
>>156460241
Which means... Piccolo is strong enough, while suppressed, to be a match for Super Saiyans.

Gero has a built-in Scouter you know.
>>
>>156459932
No bitch.
They were ridiculously strong AND they absorbed ki and life force and added it to their own power. They were ridiculously hax.

19 and 20 were supposed to be the type of androids that Trunks(well future gohan till that editor told him to change it)faced in the future.

Think about it. Why in the fuck would he need a goddamned sword? Who in the fuck taught him how to use it and why(yes we can make the case that gohan taught him his sword fighting skills)?
Who was he going to use it against?

Exactly. Ki absorbing androids. Look at his efficient brutal fighting style where he rarely used any ki attacks. How he sliced up frieza then blasted the bits.

Toriyama based the entire android saga on terminator and in the future the world was taken over by ki absorbing super androids with only him and gohan with bulma's technological skill and maybe even the capsule backed army being strong enough and skilled enough to put up any resistance.

Why would Trunks use a sword? By this logic Trunks can use Special Beam Cannon.

His point was that Trunks was originally given a sword so he wouldn't have to fight hand to hand with ki absorbing androids. After Mr. T's changes it was just an aspect of his cool factor.

Piccolo wasn't powered up when Gero drained him, so Gero only absorbed a negligible amount of energy.

Anon, he was Raditz tier in the Saiyan saga after having a power level of 177. It's why he beat (but didn't kill) the Saibaman. After that he trained with King Kai, and went on a training mission that involved self loathing that a manlet fuck stole his girlfriend which is why he cut his hair like a Saiyan. Unless his training was like the shit he did in filler (lifting weights), he's leagues beyond Raditz and Nappa.

Smug. Well I'd write him as a happy go lucky character who would playfully banter with his allies, and occasionally his opponents, and intentionally piss the more uptight ones off with his snarkiness and lighthearted nature. He'd play with his opponents in a confident but non-malicious way.

For instance he'd see personality flaws and see potential targets to subtly mock and poke at those flaws "innocently" until they exploded. However if he needed to flip the serious switch, he would, as of which he'd be intently focusing on getting the job done.

Bruh every single thing to do with 17 and 18 outside of the fight between 17 and piccolo was fucking trash.

Oh yeah, I'm fully aware of that. At this point I have no faith in the writing staff and I have very very low expectations, if any at all. If they haven't been able to make any of their existing characters interesting almost 100 episodes in, when it would've been incredibly easy to do so, I honestly don't see them suddenly pulling a colorful character out of nowhere to fill a hole that desperately needs filling.

>>156461121
At the moment it's really hard to choose. Characters were bland or irritating in both Super and GT. GT had some "bad ideas with no potential", and "decent ideas squandered by a bad series in general", whereas Super has had "pretty decent ideas, every single one having absolutely abysmal execution".

As much as it pains me to say this, but at this current point in time, I'd have to say GT barely wins out even though I hate that series with a passion because at least The ending was good, even if everything else was an absolute shit show.

I don't like this question because it reminds me of how little faith I have in Super now, and how much I hated GT, and how excited I was for Super in the first place.

Have you not seen the battle against piccolo in the tenkaichi tournament? where he says a shitload of times that he wants to beat piccolo fair and square to prove that he is the strongest? or when he is considering to let every enemy live just because he might fight them again? holy shit motherfucking kill yourself right fucking now

>>
>>156462830
He's not as serious, though. And that's mainly because Goku and his team will win in the end or he'll tell whoever does win to use the wish to not have the universes erased or just sweet talk Zeno again into not doing it. It's pretty obvious.

Yeah, but there's no real risk to him because he's confident that he can wiggle out of having the universes erased.
He was a lot let serious with Piccolo than Vegeta or Frieza because he was confident that he was stronger than Piccolo. It's one of the few cases of Goku being genuinely cocky towards someone he'd never fought before.

Krillin is only good against human opponents, he isn't even a match for Piccolo, just watch the Bojack movie for example.
Who fucking cares if there's a ringout and it's a team tournament, anyone above SSJ Goku could kill him so fast he wouldn't even notice it.
But hey, who the fuck am I to make those claims. If Toei makes him fight SSB Goku, that must mean Krillin is on par with gods now, amirite?

Because Goku had already participated in two tournaments and he spent all his life training, not only Goten and Trunks have grown up in some really peaceful times, but they really skip training a lot, or they are not allowed to train by their mothers, either way the Buu case was special, the earth depended on it and they were the only choice they had, here they need a more tactical choice, they don't need full raw power

SSJ3 isn't actually SSJ3, it's an imperfect form in the vein of SSJ Grades 2 and 3. The real SSJ3 is the design Toriyama rejected that didn't come with a massive mullet and would ideally be a well-integrated part of the story rather than the retarded irrelevance it was in the Boo arc.
>>
>>156465548

If I was to add anything to SSJ I would also state that a person could only use that form once and only once.

Also what if the final villains in Dragonball are the Gods who originally got pissed at humanity for over exerting the balls and cheating death constantly? Shadow Dragons I guess you could say are them but I'd like a similar idea brought into the series.
>>
>>156465548

Vegeta just being handed SSJ offscreen a mere forty chapters after Goku's awesome ascension is the moment where Dragon Ball jumped the shark for me.

It was only redeemed (slightly) by Goten and Trunks making a joke out of the whole concept, which of course pissed off the Ameritards to no end.

I don't know about all that, but Vegeta is undefeated against Goku.

That's not how it works though. It always came down to the relative difference in power levels, not the absolute. Vegeta killed Kiwi with ease because he was 33% stronger than Kiwi.

Zenkai's stopped making sense after Vegeta's nap.
He defeated Jeice who could read his PL, and after his nap he broke Freeza's scouter because of his PL. Was Vegeta hiding his true power while fighting Jeice? I don't think so, but if he was that would mean he would already be higher than Kaioken Goku who was 180k.

It's not that there is a logical in-universe reason for him to not be able to do it that was contradicted, it's that there was zero build-up to it in the story itself and was completely unearned. Goku's transformation was the culmination of a storyline that arguably started with chapter 195, two and a half years before his transformation. Vegeta just shows up and he's magically a Super Saiyan too. It's horrible writing.

>BUT TWO TODDLERS GOING SS FOR NO REASON IS GREAT LOL FUCK AMERICANS BTW

It is, because it's Toriyama spoofing the serious action sci-fi story Dragon Ball was derailed into with the Cell arc - the arc that is widely considered to be the best among American fans because it's the most "badass." The Boo arc was much needed course correction and a big part of that was making a joke out of what had been so ridiculous in the previous arc.

>From Raditz until the end of Cell, the narrative of Dragon Ball Z remained fairly consistent.

No. There was a dramatic shift in style, tone and narrative trajectory following the Freeza arc. The entire series until that point had been building towards Goku becoming the single most powerful person in the universe. Defeating Freeza was the culmination of a story that started with Bulma running Goku over.

The random ass introduction of time travel has nothing to do with the story that had come before. It was a sharp left turn. And after defeating the ultimate evil in the universe, a being so powerful it made the lord of worlds shit his pants, the next villain they face is robots? Made by some guy in a cave? Some fucking momo in a cave has the ability to create robots and cyborgs that are more powerful than Super Saiyans? Are you shitting me? And if you want to call Fat Boo a slap in the face, what the fuck is #19 and #20? They were designed to be the main villain of the arc and were so awful they had to be scrapped immediately. Then they were replaced with Nirvana rejects, who again were so awful they had to be scrapped immediately. The whole arc basically had to start over again twice before it could get going, and what it amounted to was a lot of "hurry up and wait." More Super Saiyans were introduced, more Super Saiyan forms were introduced and Dragon Ball officially devolved into a retarded laser beam lightshow.

The Boo arc got things back on track by introducing a proper villain. Having destroyed the ultimate evil in the living realm, now they face the arch enemy of the ultimate God himself. A much more natural progression than stupid robots. And tonally it gets back to what made Dragon Ball great, which is the blend of action and humor. It's a return to form and the perfect way to end the series.

I admit myself that I found the sudden curveball in powerscaling a little jarring even as a kid. The almighty Super Saiyan, able to defeat the galactic emperor and all out planet fucker Freeza. I mean he literally destroyed planets on a whim.

Then here they were, unable to even hurt 16, 17 and 18 after how Trunks so easily dispatched Freeza effortlessly. It took quite the suspension of disbelief and even now whenever I have to make the comparison in power scaling it still doesn't really make sense, but I still managed to really enjoy most of the entire Artificial Human saga.

Hoenstly I think it might've been something to do with the fact that Namek was so boring in terms of background and scenery, and having things set on Earth again just might've just pleased me. Apart from the Cell Games at the end, and the animation quality of USSJ Trunks vs Perfect Cell, I actually really enjoyed the rest of the saga and would place it as one of my favorites.

Hey now imagine sitting through an entire series waiting for a character to make a return as a naive 3 year old not aware of what a filler character was. I was absolutely heartbroken. On the flipside I still liked kid Goku.
>>

Your sense of humor is horrific
>>
>>156470069
Literally no one asked.
>>
>>156470113
They kinda mellowed out in Super, maybe they're slowly realizing their goal of taking over the world is stupid.
>>
>>156470263
Well he was responding to a post about filler characters, although bringing me up was kinda odd sure. Maybe he assumed I was around to respond.
>>
>>156470353
Or he's obsessed with you.
>>
>>156470353
The other guy was talking about Yamcha defeating Recoome being filler, not about your homosexual childhood memories though.
>>
>>156470435
I would happily say a bit of both
>>
>>156470257
you're so cool anon
>>
>>156470313
They just wanted to be rich in BoG, not rule the world
>>
>>156470471
Well he probably just wanted to state that filler can be popular or fun, that and get a response from me.

I'm aware that Toriyama originally intended 19 and 20 to be the main antagonists before being pressured by his editor to add 17 and 18, and then Cell, but in the manga, Trunks actually refers to 19 and 20 by name?

weird

>>156471854
>Trunks actually refers to 19 and 20 by name
Yes. His editor probably asked Toriyama to change the villains after this chapter came out.
>>
So, we went from bitching about manga and anime to this shit thread? What the fuck is wrong with you guys?
>>
>>156459026
>SS vegeta toys with 19 and never once sees him as a real threat
And yet he still has to bluff to make 20 escape since he wasn't confident regarding beating him after wasting very little power against 19. He isn't ever directly drained or anything. And that's praised by Piccolo as a strategic move, so he isn't meant to have made a dumb mistake there.

His editor made the right decision then. Android arc would have been like the shitty Super Android 13 movie otherwise.

Because he's an adult and grown up Goku.
He's basically what Vegeta wanted to be.
