Dancing and singing about how awesome Earth is.

Finally watching this subbed. BoZ got me interested in it since Beerus seems fun.

Fist off, thank god that they've finally started to change some character designs. I noticed it originally when playing BoZ that SS God Goku isn't all bulky like his normal design. Especially his neck. It's thinner now and without the tumor on the back.

Also they fixed one of the issues I've always had with 18. Her forehead is no longer so damn huge.

I always used to wonder of 17/18 had such massive for heads because their brains were also in jars, like Gero. Only he just used a hat.

Finished it. 10 out of 10, would and already am watching again.

Beerus was one of the more entertaining antagonists in the franchise. It was nice seeing Pilaf and crew back as well. Overall, unlike the TV series and most of the other movies, it had a more comical and easy going theme to it. Not just "the world is ending, fight fight fight etc". I thought it had a lot of the entertaining charm of the original Dragonball.

Also the Vegeta scene was awesome, Even if short lived. and 18 flustered by Whis was cute. Also among other things, it makes you realize that

-Capsule corp are terrible neighbors

-Goku really is a dick.

And during the city fight, that was probably the most populated/largest city they've ever actually had in the franchise.

Oh, I didn't even notice they fixed the foreheads.

How about that.

I just noticed that Shen Long was a cheap skate. He never actually granted a wish, he just told Beerus what he wanted to know and then got the hell out of there because he was scared.

Well he was killed by the original Piccolo back in Dragon Ball, so he probably doesn't want to take any chances.

The dragon was never afraid of anyone before, not even after being killed. But he and seemingly every other wise being in the universe just seem to all get the picture to not piss off Beerus.

Plus Dende made this Shenlong, I don't think they ever confirmed if it's even the same dragon.

I don't see why it wouldn't be the same Shen Long.

Porunga is still Porunga, even after Guru died and Moori took over.

Watched the movie earlier today because you guys mentioning it of late reminded me I had it and still had to get it watched. But I liked it. Like Zechs said, it's a lot more like DB in most of its tone and interactions and humor, even down to how Beeru was a pretty light hearted character when it came down to it.

Not sure how exactly but my rewatch of Nanoha StrikerS suddenly made me want to watch the SSJ Bardock movie. And only 1/4th of the way in, can't help but see Bardock as basically a tsundere Goku.

You just reminded me of how Vegeta was actually more awesome in the 30 seconds of badass he got than the entire series.

Apparently in a recent Interview Toriyama said he wants to do another movie, only where Vegeta will be the main character/hero of it. He did technically surpass goku in BoGs. At least until he went literal God mode. Though Beerus did mention Vegeta as well in his ending lines before the wasabi thing.

Yeah, he apparently surpassed Goku without going SSJ4/monkey. Too badass.

I disagree. Vegeta was at his best during the Namek/Freeza Saga (pre-Ginyu Force).

Getting stronger for every loss, outsmarting Freeza and his men, and nearly got all the Dragon Balls at one point. He was seriously cunning.

Krillin pissed me off so much when he didn't let Dende keep resing him to be stronger. At least him being a selfish prick backfired and Frieza killed him. >>;

Yeah, Vegeta was a cunning dick but that was when he was treated as an actual villain. And then what? He jobbed to pretty much everyone and everything, became a balding M hairline dude and at the very end he was forced to throw his pride away and fuse with Goku. And then admit Goku is just better than him. Because. All of that bloodline BS for nothing. But in BoG he actually stood up for himself and his wife and surpassed his lifelong rival for a brief moment. He actually got character development outside of being a coward and swallowing his pride like pretty much how every other movie played out.

I'm not disagreeing with his character development. I like the changes he went through during the Buu Saga and afterwards (like in Battle of the Gods). It was much better than how he was in the Android/Cell Saga where his pride kept making the situation worse.

I'm just saiyan. Vegeta, at least as a villain, was pretty cool during the early Namek Saga.


@Orochi
Let's be fair though; Krillin had good reason to be hesitant about helping Vegeta. Even if Vegeta had somehow become strong enough to beat Freeza through multiple Zenkais, he would've just turned on everyone else.

I guess, but he should have taken the chance. At least Vegeta might not have killed everyone, Frieza would have.

This made me realize that Goku is a shitty husband and terrible father who constantly keeps abandoning his wife and children.

Of course. Even Toriyama said Goku is unfit to be a father.

Always wondered why they went with Bulma instead of outright Bloomer.

I watched this again, and I realized what part I didn't like before. It's the bit where they're trying to invoke the SSJ God form.

Needing six pure-hearted Saiyans is one thing, but then they bring in Videl who's somehow able to contribute with a baby still in the early stages of pregnancy. Oh please.

Oh, and they could've featured some of the other characters more too, I guess. I don't think Piccolo has really gotten the chance to fight since the Cell Saga.
