I mean like, he doesn't know Bardock or Gine, either. I guess you could say he met Raditz so that makes it different but honestly, Goku was done with the Saiyan angst (if you could even call it that) and accepted all of and his past awhile ago.

I don't really see what Raditz would be contributing by coming back.

Ah, maybe I'm just hoping for some kind of Character Development on his end or something.

So, in this week's episode of Super, Tagoma is a legitimate threat, Gohan is still going Super Saiyan, and I realised the most interesting stuff is actually happening next week.

Except, this week we found out... Gotenks is going to join the battle.

...which is going to screw up the power levels even more.

[up][up] Character Development on what? Goku didn't even know who Raditz is, I don't he cares about him beyond just being another guy to fight.

A lazy millennial who's good at what he does.

Just re-watched Buutenks versus Gohan.

Goddamn, that was painful to watch. Almost made me wish Gohan beat Buu himself. After the first couple minutes, it's Gohan getting smacked around and Buu delivering burn after burn. Brutal.

Gotenks joining the battle?

Excellent!

At least one person who should be there gets to join in. Still mad that 18 and Buu are left out, but at least one person who should be there is there.

Then again, Gotenks is kinda an idiot, so him being in the fight might not help things at all. We'll just have to wait and see.

Yeah, the fight between Buu and Gohan was really uncomfortable to watch.

At least Gotenks will give some laughs.

So on Buu's sick burn regarding how uncool of a sibling Gohan is...

Gohan: "I'll show you why my little brother looks up to me."

Buu: "I can answer that question right here. He's shorter than you, dumbass."

Heh.

So what? Are we all just gonna rip on Gohan unmercifully now?

Are we gonna shut down any attempts anyone makes to not treat Gohan like a joke?

Are we gonna drive Gohan fans into frothing rage?

I refuse to ever take part in Gohan dissing jokes because I like that he chose to follow his goals now.

I guess Gotenks is going to defeat Tagoma, then job to Freeza.

man, I'm not happy if now Gohan can't even beat Tagoma. That's such a step down.

Well that horned dude that he beats in the movie is still around right? Still, they really do seem to be going overboard with pushing Gohan out of the spotlight.

I mean If he doesn't want to fight anymore, I can deal with that, but they seem to be trying to toss him under the space bus as hard as possible, and it's getting ridiculous.

I really wouldn't call him They Wasted a Perfectly Good Character, he had a nice design and nothing else to him. Him dying in the movie was unexpected, but it really didn't matter since he was so insignificant. This is just ridiculous.

[up][up] No, Tagoma kills Shisami.

You know, a scouter would be pretty useful to have in real life.

I mean, yeah, not much point in comparing power levels between average people, but you'd be able to tell if someone was trying to sneak up on you, for one thing.

As long as the scale was much bigger than in Dragon Ball. Someone with a PL of 7.1 compared to someone with a PL of 7.8 to PL's of 71 and 78.

Even if the scale wasn't bigger (thus making the measurement aspect completely useless), the locating properties are what I'd want out of it anyway. Frieza probably didn't care about the Namekians' individual powers when he scouted out the villages, and there are a lot more innocuous uses for finding out where everyone is at the moment than what he had in mind.

Realistically, a Real Life Scouter would have the average Human around 50,000 in order to include all life-forms in the scale.

I have no idea what Gotenks is doing. My only guess is he might defuse and get Freeza pissed off because Goten and Trunks=Goku and Future Trunks. And then Freeza might just kill off everyone. The villains, I mean. Maybe

And, yeah. The Gohan bashing has been getting ridiculous. Why would they punish him for doing what he always wanted to do? It's like "oh, yeah, following your dreams is great. Unless you want to be a scholar. In which case, screw that."

I can't help but wonder what the modern internet's reaction to Dragon Ball would be if it had just started. "Goku's an alien?! This series has officially Jumped the Shark!"
