That's all the stupid and asinine shark jumping bullshit you could bring to bear?

Bardock's gonna be so disappointed.

Incidentally, I have no idea how you can find the voices 'annoying'. None of them are annoyingly high pitched, they're all competent voice actors and the direction and editing tend to be quite a bit above your average animation, even accounting for animation produced by major studios.

I just find them annoying. Well, it's mostly Goku's voice but I figured he'd be in every episode so I just said whatever and decided not to watch it anymore. Also, a voice doesn't have to be high pitched to be annoying and even the best voice actor can sound annoying to someone. The other big reason is it's just not something I enjoy, I get why others like watching it but I just don't care for it.

EDIT: As for the editing, I will admit that they do a great job on that. I will also admit that I like Piccolo, Vegeta and Yamcha's voices. I don't remember any others but I think Tien had a good voice too.

[down] None of Goku's voice actors are perfect but I still like them better than his Abridged voice. The only one I think is worse is the voice he had in Mystical Adventure. It just sounded wrong. Horribly wrong.

Let me correct myself, I figured he'd be in a majority of the episodes

No voice actor for Goku has been a baritone.

Also, please. In the original show there's huge stretches Goku is barely in.

In the Abridged Series there's huge stretches where Goku's barely in it. By virtue of the fact that they're abridging Dragon Ball Z, which is about Gohan and not Goku.

Once Piccolo Daimao shows up, Goku falls into a pattern of sitting out huge chunks of the plot and just showing back up for the finale, usually - though not always - to resolve the plot by beating the villain after everyone else has failed.

He's The Ace, frequently exposed to Deus Exit Machina to give the rest of the cast something to do. He gets Wrong Genre Savvy about it in the final arc.

Regardless of weather or not Goku is around, I don't care for the Abridged series. In addition to the episodes i've seen, i've seen clips on Youtube and I just don't really care for it. Obviously me not watching hasn't affected them in any way.

EDIT: At the time I first watched Abridged, I hadn't seen Dragon Ball Z in a while and I forgot how often Goku was in an episode. Doesn't change how I feel about the series, it just explains why I expected Goku to be around in like 90% of the episodes.

Random question, but do Yamcha and Chaozu ever surpass Roshi, or no? I know everyone else does several times over.

[up][up][up]Yes, they both did. If I remember the numbers Yamcha by more than 10 times and Chiotzu by almost six. Neither is really impressive in the grand scheme of things but it is what it is.

If the power levels of the Daizenshuu aren't wrongs, why yes, Yamcha and Chiaotzu are stronger. With Yamcha being strong enough to defeat a 1200-something foe without any real efforts (he did not see the autodestruction coming but come-on, he still PWNED it) and Chiaotzu was something in the 610.

Chiatozu was probably Dodoria Level at the end of Z, dohohohohoh.

So, Freeza is the ultimate proof that Mountain Training doesn't work. Even when it's Space Mountain Training.

I like Mira tho. He's pretty cool and don't fear anything.

Unless it's a ki blast, of course.

[up][up]A lot of people really like Towa, if you catch my drift.

I also hope Towa and Mira play some part in the new DLC missions. Like they were the ones that grabbed Super 17 and Ape Baby. Or you know something.

Am I the only one that wants the Potara Earrings added as an accessory?

Think I might make a female Trunks and call her Panty, Panties or Knickers.

So here's my attempt at a female Trunks named Knickers. One is a close up of her face. The other is Erasa, and one is Gine since I wasn't sure if I posted her yet.

I don't like Erasa's hair but it's the best I could find and I don't have a sword for Knickers yet, one of my other characters is using Taipon's sword until I get the Z sword.

So can I get some opinions on them?
