...First, Goku sounds more pained/scared when he delivers that kamehameha.

Second, no matter what our tropes say, it's still rape if you enjoyed it.

Physical pleasure =/= enthusiastic consent.

Remember when Goku first appeared and Freeza didn't know what to do about him? Well it looks like Cell isn't going to be thrown in quite the same way.

Yeah this point's going to get beat into the ground but:

I wouldn't say it was Rape, he has shown to at least enjoy those types of things,

yehimprettysurethatwasrape

Not that there's anyth...

...hmm.

Moving on. Really I doubt anyone is going to be seriously offended by that scene.

It just kinda hit close to home for me.

But other than that, good episode.

[up][up]Really? Come on, it's the internet.

But either way, it's still a joke in pretty poor taste, and not in a funny way.

To be fair, its the first one they've made about him being OP in a while.

The whole ending had me rolling though, just because of Goku's obliviousness to the whole thing. I thought she was mad until she made Krillin and Gohan go away and then I knew what was going on and it was too much. Yea, Rape is bad and I get that, but Crosses the Line Twice exists for a reason.

And I like how they pointed out that Vegeta and Piccolo have never had a fight.

So, anyone notice how both Nail and Kami's voices come from the left and right speaker respectively?

[up] (4) Fair point.

As to the second thing, eh, I would've laughed harder if I hadn't read adrian's comment first. I mean we knew Goten had to be born somehow.

I'm taken aback by Goku coming onto Cell like that.

Liked the episode, but the ending...hmm...

Would have had him realize what she wanted before they actually cut to it.

[up] (4) The sad thing is I was thinking "adric" and then my brain rejected it. Nah, that's not a word or a name, don't be silly. Sorry tongue.

[up] (3) -shakes fist angrily-

[up] It's amusing how Nail and Kami try to improve Piccolo's life.

Anyways, all I'll say about that scene is that it reminded me of something personal, which played a large factor in me poor reception of it.

And seriously people, read my username. Adrian is my IRL name (AND THERE'S NO DAMN E IN IT), but with the exception of certain threads, I prefer being called by my username.

Loved that conversation between Cell and Goku. As someone else here said, Cell seems like he'll be the first person to not be completely thrown by Goku's usual attitude.

Piccolo pointing out that he and Vegeta have never fought one on one was funny, because it's true. I admit, despite being aware of it, I'd also kind of forgotten as well.

.....that last part.....honestly, they probably should have just had Chi-chi explain it, and then show Goku relaxing about it. And voila! No rape. If the genders had been reversed, we all know they'd have never done it.

It kinda hurt the entire episode, and you know we aren't the only ones who noticed, which means everyone is gonna be focusing on that part, and it's gonna be a big thing.

I'm not sure if I want to see the fallout of the entire thing in the end.

Yea, now that the dust is settled, they're probably going to get some shit for that. Cuz its that type of world we're living in.
