I certainly hope that wasn't aimed at me

I didn't mean for it to sound so vindictive, but did you really have to call how the Anime handled the arc "stupid"?

When did I say that? My comment was about Merged Zamasu's immortality.

I mean, it's not like Manga!Black isn't practically a rehash of Xicor, or held the Idiot Ball multiple times during the arc, or had practically no connection to Goku at all beyond the body-snatching thing and seems more like a villain for Vegeta then anything, or the fact he kept whining whenever he lost, unlike Anime!Black who...never really lost, or the fact that Toyotaro was copying his own panels from his AF comic to make Chapter 22...

I thought Very Melon explained their points fairly well. I haven't watched it yet, but the concept of Merged!Zamasu being "half-immortal" or whatever does sound pretty stupid and contrived.

Seriously I'm not being an apologist fanboy. I listed some things I liked differently from the anime that occurred in the manga, that's it. No where did I say the anime version of the Saga sucked, because that would also apply to the manga version if I actually had that opinion.

[up][up][up][up] And how Goku was able to wound him.

Look, I don't mind if you prefer the Manga and think it does a better job than the Anime, but I don't feel that makes it ok to put down what the Anime does either or vice versa.

They're both the same series that cover the same events, just in a different manner. Why does there have to be some conflict over which is "better" just read watch what you like.

And I say this because I can't read comments about either medium without one side bashing the other on other sites and it's seriously tiresome at this point for me.

I don't think being half-immortal is really comparable to being half-dead. Dead people can still be killed after all.

I can't control what kind of people you expose yourself to Yakuzu, that doesn't give you the right to insult anyone bothering you at the moment. It doesn't just mean me, you should cool it around anyone here that vocalizes a dislike for something in the manga as well.

And I mentioned Vegito as precedent for the state of one being to override the other fused parties. Vegito wasn't "half-dead" at any point in the Buu Saga, so I didn't see why Merged Zamasu should be "half-immortal".

Look, can we just talk about the manga or anime without saying which one is better or worse. I'm not trying to start anything tbh.

I think everyone's allowed to say why they liked something more than another thing. If we happen to think it's dumb I feel we're allowed to say that as long as it doesn't turn into insults against tropers.

That'd be a lot easier if people didn't take insults against something they like as insults against themselves.

Our favorite bastard of a green villain, the magnificent god, and Zamasu arrive to Xenoverse 2!

Goku Black Rosé combos are BEAUTIFUL! His voice, however, sounds british now.

Is there is one thing I love about last chapter of DBS is Trunks talking about Bulma. The fact she was planning on visiting the past to see Vegeta, and that talk motivated Vegeta to fuse warms my heart.

Too bad Vegetot doesn't last much. Even less time than in the anime.

Vegito wasn't "half-dead" at any point in the Buu Saga

Maybe he was and we just couldn't tell because half-halos look too dumb to draw.

[up][up][up][up][up],[up][up][up][up] I'm mostly speaking in general. But I got it, I'm sorry I lashed out like that. I'm just really tired of trying to talk about the manga without people shitting on the Anime. So, excuse being a bit jumpy when I read criticism of the Anime in comparison to the manga.

Because, regardless of how you feel about either medium, Toyotaro or Toei, the Anime tends to get a lot of unnecessary hate. Especially when both Manga and Anime use things that people knock the latter for. I understand the Anime isn't perfect and has many flaws, but I don't feel that automatically makes the Manga superior and that it too isn't without it's own set of flaws.

If you want to hear their voices, in their narmy glory.

I hate how most of the previews have commentators. I hate people talking over my videos!

Anyway, Black is no longer SSJ 4 Goku, now he is Turles!

How ironic.

Sean seems to be using his Black Doom voice for Goku Black. Fitting.

Is that even Sean Schemmel? Also why does Goku Black have an accent when neither Zamasu nor Goku have one?

[up][up] It sounds sophisticated, to fit Black more polite way of speaking. I haven't heard much of Zamasu voice to say, but I think he does have the accent.

What is shocking is that he sounds like Turles.

Ok I can't make much judgement on Zamasu voice but its odd how Black Rose sounds British. Might take some time to get used to that.

Also did Black ever refer to himself as "Goku Black"? I thought he just called himself "Son Goku".
