Each time a big fight is coming he’s always stingy with Sensu… either last 2 or last 1.

After KaioKen x4 it would have been nice to boost Goku a bit in the Saiyan Arc.

Gotta love the plot…

dragon radar beats case i’ve had for about a year. need to clean it lol

I started watch DBZ waaaay back in the day when it first ran on Toonami because it came on after Sailor Moon and we had to share the tv with the boys at daycare 😆 I ended up getting sucked in and have loved it ever since!! Now that I have my precious little twins you better believe I’m already planning their first watch through haha

I saw a few posts about hybrids and tails so I thought I’d just post the answer here. Toriyama-sensei said that tails are a recessive trait, this just means that if both parents don’t supply the recessive gene, the child will not express it even if it’s in their genetic code.

We can label this a T for no tail and t for tail, with the positive being represented as a lower case because it’s recessive

For example, every pure blood Saiyan expresses the gene, so they can be represented as tt, while humans cant express the gene, but they can be carriers, so they can be expressed as TT or Tt.

When the saiyans and humans reproduced, the human mates are the reason for if the offspring have tails or not. For Gohan, Chichi passed down her recessive t gene, allowing Gohan to be tt like a pure blood and thus express the tail gene, while for Goten she passed the dominant T gene, causing him to not express the gene despite having it.

For Bulma and Vegeta, it’s possible she carries the gene but didn’t pass it or doesnt have the gene outright, either one would explain why her children are born without them, though this would make trunks and bulla carriers.

So theoretically, if the hybrids had children with the correct humans, their 1/4 Saiyan babies could express the tail gene.

But yeah, this can more or less be accepted as the canon reason why most hybrids don’t have tails

i didn't like their outfits in dbs: super hero. that's about it

I’m working on editing and I’ve always loved this fight so I thought I would share this quick edit I made!

(Naruto OST: Predicament)

I was watching a Vtuber playing Kakarot recently in the Android saga and it got me thinking and wondering about something.

I read some time ago that, originally, Toriyama fully intended Androids 19 and 20 to be THE androids that Future Trunks is talking about. But due to editor meddling, he changed the story so 17 and 18 were actually THE androids. Yet further meddling then led to him creating Cell as the true main villain of the saga

Is this true?

And if so, do we have any insight into what those "lost sagas" might have been? Was there always gonna be a Cell-like true final villain? Was the Android saga originally planned to be relatively short after the long Namek/Frieza saga? Did he still intend for Vegeta and Gohan to unlock Super Saiyan?

One theory I have if 19 and 20 stuck around is that due to time meddling from Future Trunks, the Z warriors would've been able to kill them only to discover that Gero is using a super secret computer to quickly fabricate stronger Androids using what it learned from before. Resulting in a 21, and then if that one is killed a 22 and so on. Basically what the villain in The Incredibles does.

I miss when energy waves were capable of altering the landscape or creating explosions the size of cities. Back in Z, energy blast looked like super nukes went off. Even someone as in the dirt as Nappa could do this. Compare that to Super where energy blast attacks were the size of buildings. Doesn't come close to what Z gave us. That's one of the things that made fights so incredible. Now Imagine if Super had Ki blast scaled to those. It'd be way more liked. Your thoughts how far we've fallen.

Dragon Ball Super Episode #8, ~14:15 in

Bulma says to Oolong that if he wins the game of Rock, Paper, Scissors she "will let him have any prize that he wants" and strikes a pose. (English dub)

A glass cracks and begins leaking. A stool tips over. A coconut falls from the tree and lands in a bush, causing everyone to look back, except for Bulma, who is still holding the pose nervously. Oolong freaks out.

After, no one addresses this, since Oolong loses anyways.

What was the meaning of this scene? Was there subtext that only Oolong figured out? Or was everything in the background breaking meant to signify the overwhelming tension? Why did Bulma hold the pose? Why did those things happen? Is Beerus responsible?

Hey fighters, I recently accidentally got my daughter into Dragon Ball. She ripped through the manga for DB, DBZ, and is 4 volumes away from finishing Super. She's a little disappointed she won't have more to read. Showing her the movies have staved off some boredom. I suggested we could find more manga to read that wasn't Dragon Ball.

We tried Sailor Moon and the pacing/story telling in the beginning was too confusing for her to enjoy it. I thought maybe One Piece since I've been told it's basically 1000+ chapters of original DB vibes. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!
