[up][up]

But she does play the part of useless millstone that the Monkey king must protect damned well, so I'd say [up][up][up] has a point.

Also Bulma actually fulfills the role of Sanzo.

Sanzo was supposed to be a good person...sometimes I forget Dragon Ball started out as a parody.

And, as a Kirby fan, I will just touch on one thing. 200 megatons is far from planet destroying force. Even if you deliberately fudge the minigame Kirby's strike will still be dozens of megatons, and it will also cause no visible damage to the area, which can lead one to assume that Kirby and his world are a lot stronger and tougher than most video game characters and settings but all a perfect score does is make a long crack in the surface, which is pretty much the worst thing the same impact would do on Earth. It would throw the lands and seas into disarray, sure, but life would go on. Maybe not human life but it's nothing anyone should except to get rid of Buu.(another reason why I said the 1 0 0 0 tons thing made no sense until I realized the mangaka simply hates Vegeta)

The real reason Majin Buu loses to Kirby is because whenever a really strong villain threatens the country/planet/solar system Kirby gets an 11th-Hour Superpower...and yes, I could maybe see Kirby swallowing a piece of Buu and copying his abilities. I imagine he'd get red eyes and a hat with the kanji for "bad" on it.

So this is gonna be the 5th DBS ending theme.

Much more faster paced than I thought it'd be, but I like it. Maybe it's because I'm a ska type of guy.

Pop idol ska is an interesting combo of genre.

I think Buu Kirby would have Buu's head tentacle and hole ears.

If it were in Super Smash Bros., definitely. Kirby's copy abilities rarely take on the appearance of what was copied otherwise. A cyclops shooting Eye Beams gives him a jester hat and a magic wand. A giant stag purple beetle gives him a blue headband. An armored knight gives him Link's hat. I mean it could, bomb does give him the same outfit as the Poppy Bros, but I think we could be more creative.

No, it's a party popper refashioned into a hat. Rather fitting.

The better question is why Crash gives him a pope hat now.

I guess that makes sense considering how bombs explode now...

I figure almost everyone from Dragon Ball would give Kirby the Fighter Ability, or at least a supercharged version of it.

Though maybe not Buu, since he has so many bizarre abilities.

Frieza getting his own television show sounds like something that would happen in DBZA.

I guess 53 billion is his canon power level now? I'm surprised we're still doing those.

...huh. So Freeza's Power Level is 53,000,000,000. Is this Resurrection 'F' Freeza or just Freeza on the ride? Because Resurrection 'F' 4th Form Freeza was either much weaker than or on par with base Goku, and with base Goku and Vegeta recently being shown to be around Ultimate Gohan's level, after having trained and gotten stronger since then, Resurrection 'F' 4th Form Freeza being 53 billion fits perfectly with my estimations of Ultimate Gohan being 70 billion and Super Buu being 50 billion.

Heroes actually looks really fun. I can see why it's become so popular.

Do you have to pay to play the game, or are your cards enough?

[up][up] The 4-D movie is a recreation of the Namek battle, apparently, so I wouldn't put much stock into the number they gave.

[up][up] I think it's one of those games where it's revenue is based off it's merch (i.e. the cards) rather than the machine, considering it's one of those arcade machines with save functions.

Also, there's DBH cereal, chips, sausages, candy and ice cream, so I'm sure it gets money there too.

[up] Oh yeah, that article forgets to mention that the Future Warrior from the first XV (AKA your previous CAC) will play an important part of the story.

Also, it seems they don't know who Old Kai is...

EDIT: It also seems like they're treating the CAC with the blue hair as a separate protagonist for some reason.

Gohan never really had Icarus.

He only exists in filler. And contradictory filler at that.
