'*pops his Knuckles* no problem'

Yea, One, like I'm really scared of you boy. Two, Really mature there bub, fixing to fight because I insulted your lame series....


'1.) new enemy-yes what about it? expound would you?'

There is no need for me to elaborate, for I was merely stepping through its plot structure. Though I could of compounded the three into one, I thought this way was more humorous.

'3.) and whats wrong with that? sounds like you prefer lower toned power for your anime, and thats cool but thats a preference of yours,not a reason its bad,so you don't like the uber power,some folks do.'

The problem is, they make the characters almost godly and that there is boring. Also if I wanted boring superpower characters, I'd watch boring superpower superheros from DC or Marvel. Mind you I hate all American Animation, and those that are similar in nature. And I have the right to criticize something whither or not you or some other folks like it.

'4.)I personally would not be satisfied if by the end of my career if I drew like Akira,at least in the face area,his bodies however are accurate,there big muscly guys,the look like it to me,and the backgrounds and random stuff are fine
as for the faces though they aren't good no,but at the same time I wouldn't change them,it really wouldn't be DB with out the Akira look.
I can understand if you don't prefer the faces,but as for most else theres nothing to complain about.'

Accurate, you say? Thats a laugh. Muscles are in the right areas but the shapes aren't really all that accurate. But personally that wasn't my beef on that point, it was mostly the faces, and the coloring style, and the special abilities (attacks using kai etc..).

'5.)so you don't like big buff characters,well unless its using chi (like the huuyga style or somethin) I'm not gonna believe that some typical uke anorexic anime guy is gonna kick people through mountains.
but its anime,it doesn't have to be real at all so ok you don't like that they are huge,but as before thats a preference of yours not a reason why its bad.'

Good question, too me I believe an anorexic anime character has as much chance of plowing somebody through a mountain as a Uber-Muscle Man, which is Zero. If I was going for reality I'd go for Full House or something along those lines, not Anime. Uber-muscle men are so over used its ridiculous, if I wanted that I would (as mentioned above,) watch DC or Marvel. They invented the whole uberly muscular superhero concept. I'd much rather go with the ordinary person with extraordinary powers, then mythological, uber muscular, godly looking persons... I believe that all odds being the same, that big muscles don't equate to having superpowers. To think so, is a lack of creativity on the part of the artist and his fans. Natural power and Super power are two different things.


'6.)oh do go on'

I will ^_^

'7.)go no suggest a goal of any villain that hasn't been done to death already,theres nothing new under then sun. so if your gonna say that ya may as well say it about every work of fiction. '

There are lots of them actually, you can give a villain about anything as it's goals, rather he chose to go with old cliches. Most of which are the basic plots of children's cartoons.

'8.)see you expect to be right about this,I think that is why you did not expand on some of these,but nothing comes to mind right away as an example that were apparently supposed to know what your talking about and in acknowledgment of that, agree with you.
but I'm afraid nothing doe's come to mind as an example of this so I disagree,but go on expand on it. '

Lets see... Power-hungry, Greed, and other rather simple explanations that have no depth nor do they add any real depth to the character or it's personality.

'9.) and what pumps one up more then the classic "oh s**t how can we ever survive!"
and then BAM shining knight overcomes all and saves the day fealing?
for the fans,for the big fights,my adrenalin was pumping so massive.
and when Freeza finally bit it me and my friends jumped up and cheered and were happy all day.
granted we were like 10ish I think. but the point is thats the best feeling when your a fan of the series,so hows it bad? it did what it was supposed to to.'

Well, it kind of kills the buzz knowing before hand (which if you watched them from the beginning) they can be wished back to life an infinite amount of times.... Well first it was just once within a certain time span, then they changed the rules over and over again.... At the time of freezer's saga, new rules, new dragon balls, and all could always be brought back.


'10.)well yeah DB is a kids show,I love the Z fighters I don't want them to die,that would have ruined the whole thing.
yes its fantasy and irl peeps stay dead.
but I don't want real when I watch DBZ I want fast paced action and the silliness of the characters I knew and loved.'

Wheres the drama in that? Boring.....


'so basically you seam to not like DBZ because its not a mature show.
ok I understand and respect your preference.
but I like a little bit of everything,and when I want "real" and drama and such I watch something else.
but growing up I mostly wanted what Akira gave me.
the most fun,action packed,a** kickinest,silly,and completely awesome half hour of every one of my week days. and I loved it and lived it for years.
so I love DBZ and DB is IS synonymous with my childhood but how is it these days?'

Silly as in Humor right? If thats the case where was the humor? Even when I loved it it didn't come off as very humorous too me.


'I don't watch it anymore,not that I don't try to i still love it I just don't have cable or any episodes downloaded on my compy.
but the games are still lots of fun and one of our favorite past-times while shooting the s**t is talking about how awesome DBZ was and playing in DBZ rp's and stuff.'

Could really careless what you do personally....

' DBZ is awesome,you have yet to provide a reason thats says otherwise ,in the end you simply have told me that you don't like it,and thats ok I respect that I don't like some anime's that are awesome two,like Eva I don't like it,yeah its a great and respected anime,but I dislike it because I don't like the characters and while that may seem shallow to you I don't see your reasons as any more profound.'

One, Eva has better animation. Two, thats fine and dandy. I wasn't trying to be profound rather educated about it or would you respect my distaste for it if I went and blathered, "DBZ sucks a big yaoi flick," and not elaborate on it farther?

'So you may ask,why bother Gihn if you are fine with me not liking it?
simple that answer is young Skywalker, you said it WAS mediocre,stated as if it was a well known fact it is that which calls me to step up.'

Well, young Gihnwalker, if it walks like a duck, quacks like a duck, and craps like a duck.... Its a duck. ^_^

Oh, I agree, DBZ is not a "Top 10" show by any means...but it's a guilty pleasure - good for mindless fun...kinda like Naruto is nowadays...
mrgreen

...and WHERE IS THAT NEKO IN YOUR SIG FROM?!?
xd


Its a guilty pleasure only if you enjoy that sort of stuff.... Naruto is far better but its not free completely of cliches... As for the Neko, its a random pick I found on the net which I added a funny catch phrase to. I have no real clue as to where its from....

I mean the DBZ series isn't that great, but I DO find much enjoyment in that Tenkaichi 2 DBZ game. Mostly since it has a more realistic view on 3D fighters, overpowered Ki and Strength not withstanding. sweatdrop

I wouldn't know - I enjoyed Budokai, but when they started releasing updates every 6 months, I just backed away...

Actually only Tenkaichi 2 is all THAT great. The 3rd one sucks.

Tenkaichi 2 was good because it did NOT make you choose between transformations, ie Super Saiyan, attacks like Kamahameha, Finishing Moves like Spirit Bomb, and items that enhance your stats.

You're like a running Tenkaichi 2 ad...we weren't even talking about games!
xd

So...you can do all of those things at once, since you don't have to choose?

Sorta. I mean you can be a Super Saiyajin and then if you have enough powah you can either toss out something like a Destructo Disc, or Spirit Bomb. Or if you have the powah you can go Super Saiyajin 2.
