So i'm wondering if the reason why female customs are referred to as Male is because of some bug. I've heard in games with character creation flags - or whatever the term is - are used to tell the players gender, as well as other things. Is it possible that there is dialogue for calling the player female but a bug is causing the 'male' flag to go off? Of course it could also just be that the localization was crappily done, which would explain Goku's random Japanese laugh, characters not saying what the subtitles claim they're saying and bad lip syncing. After helping F. Trunks beat Cell, the subtitles says "Where did they go?" or something, but it's gender neutral. What is Trunks actually saying? "Where did HE go?" Maybe all the characters are like Kid Goku, can't tell genders without feeling up our characters crotches.

I don't think that would work with Majin characters.

Exactly why everyone assumes they're just all guys...Wait, can a bubblegum creature even have a gender? I mean sure it could look male or female but would it be anything more than a gender-less thing?

I'm going to assume they have gender identity but not biological sex.

If it is a bug and not just laziness or whatever, I hope a patch can be released that causes the flag to properly trigger. It really wouldn't surprise me though if the cause was laziness, it's the reason for quite a few things. Like Tien's dialogue. He's fluent in Engrish.

So yeah, I just found out that Bulma has a sister. Huh.

First Vegeta has a brother, now Bulma has a sister, next thing we know Goku will have a brother.

As Majins are the product of Buu making a wife out of himself and then reproducing with her, I'm going to guess that their reproductive process is basically a weird version of asexual division that can be done with multiple Majins because they're all kind of the same entity anyway.

And now i'm imagining some kind of Majin Hive Mind thing. Cool.

So i've heard Jaco and some unannounced character are going to be mentors in the third DLC pack. What if the other mentor is F.Trunks? Who'd see that coming? I'd really like race specific mentors but I don't see that happening.

[up] That's racist.

Man, the episode where they wish everyone back to life was so sappy. Also, Dende and Gohan's ultra close friendship really just came out of nowhere. Why couldn't they have made some filler that showed Dende and Gohan going on hilarious mini-adventures? I'd watch the shit out of that.

Also, I now understand why TFS had Dende fall in love with GohanHEY .

[up][up]Dende and Gohan were pretty cool with each other on Namek. Krillin too, but he's way older than both of them.

@Tobias

Freeza didn't just go "oh man I love these Saiyans" to "oh man I want to kill these Saiyans". The Saiyans were developing power over time and Freeza was getting paranoid over it.

Since Freeza cares very, very little about anyone (he isn't phased at all when Cui dies, and Cui was a very strong soldier) killing them isn't much of a leap for him.

@Xenoverse gender pronouns - It's funny, when I had my female character it was bugging me that they were referred to with male pronouns.

After creating my male character and continuing the story... suddenly I get the odd female pronoun. I think there was meant to be dialogue changes for either gender but it didn't quite pan out.

And yet, through all the Namek saga everyone was like "Sayians suck, they can't be this strong!"

Getting stronger doesn't mean strong enough to be a threat.

And I doubt the Majins have a hive mind. Evil Buu and Good Buu didn't share a mind. Neither did Mr. Buu and Kid Buu.

You can tell because of the part where they were punching the hell out of each other.

The Majin race is a bit like that only not.

[up][up]Doesn't Japan have more Gender Neutral words? It'd be easy for them to write a script for the game that never mentions the F Ws gender. I do hope it's just a bug and a patch could fix it.

[up] I didn't actually think they have a Hive Mind. I was just saying that the thought of a Majin Hive Mind crossed my mind.

[up][up][up][up] Because those were individual Saiyans, not a collective threat. And really, Ginyu wasn't really surprised by the idea of Goku being so strong. Jheese was, because a Saiyan that strong simply hadn't appeared before.

This is all screwed up by Freeza's absolutely outrageous power.

Ginyu though that Goku is a mutant didn't he? And when Goku got serious he was like "Oh shit, is he actually a Super Sayian?!"
