90's Fighting Anime Soap Opera Rant

May 07, 2016 01:17

In the Dragonball series when Goku is faced with some kind of challenge he trains until he can evolve into something that can beat his opponent. Over hundreds of episodes he "transforms" from an uncombed gym rat into slightly different versions of a glowing Aryan monkey but he only knows one move through like 75% of the series. Maybe look into learning a better fucking move.
If there even is such a thing.
How strong is the Kamehameha?
Stronger than Vegetas Final Blast?
If so why doesn't Goku learn that move?
If not, why doesn't Vegeta learn the Kamehameha?
Is the Spirit Bomb really an improvement if it's strength depends on so many variables and takes longer than a Comcast customer service call to charge?

Speaking of loopholes, what the fuck happened to senzu beans? We're told Korrin grows them and they're used a couple times, usually to reset the cannon fodder characters that hadn't been killed by the big bad before Goku got there, it doesn't make sense that they weren't constantly a part of every fighters gear bag from that point onward. Why wouldn't you at least bring a couple with you if you're going to go fight someone you know is stronger than you over the fate of the universe? Not to mention that it was shown repeated that when a Saiyan recuperates from near death they get a massive boost to power levels. If Goku was really interested in getting stronger he would have had Vegeta hit him with a near-fatal blow, eaten a senzu bean, then repeated until godhood.

whole lotta bulllllllllllshit
