And the entire existence of those Kid Icarus anime shorts, INCLUDING that explicitly fanservice-y Palutena one AND the Palutena trailer for Smash 4 in general.

...Wait are we arguing something here?

Good question.

Do we know who he's designed, and who Toriyama has designed?

So now you're going to argue that Nintendo, because it likes the money that big franchises bring, is super tolerant of stuff that isn't family friendly.

Yes, they don't shut out everything that is T and up, but you can't deny that they've always tried to push an image that is most decidedly family friendly. Hell, it's one of the main criticisms levied against them regarding promotion of their consoles and it has been since the Nintendo Power early days.

You're assuming that just because I'm saying that Nintendo markets with a preference towards a younger audience (or, rather, parents with young kids) it means I think Nintendo never does anything T or above and doesn't allow it on its consoles.

Or that it doesn't like money.

I've heard "Coli" mentioned as a possible name for Fem!Broly, and honestly, I quite like it. It rhymes, and it sticks by the whole Saiyan = vegetable theme naming (Coli = Cauliflower).

Well what Vegetables are left for her to be named.

We've been expecting her to have a similar, but feminized name to Broly, but that's pretty unlikely.

Though I suppose it's not impossible.

And yet Fire Emblem Fates kept every single bit of its incestuous subtext and the explicit Kissing Cousins.

I'm beginning to think their priorities are skewed.

They did kick out the "rub your units[' faces]" thing, however.

Which, you know, good fucking riddance.


Looking at what got changed in Mirage Sessions... yeah, I don't want the Japanese version of that. I suppose it would've been better for the community as a whole if some of it was an option (like some of the costumes).

Well what Vegetables are left for her to be named.

Plenty. I mean, there's cauliflower, like I mentioned, but aside from that, her name could be...

  • Callia (scallion)
  • Belle (bell pepper)
  • Colassa (coleslaw- also doubles as a reference to the colossal size of her LSS form)
  • Turina (turnip)
  • Ruba/Rhuba (rhubarb)

...actually, coming up with these is kind of fun!

[down] Yeah, that actually does work better.

Speaking of theme naming, something funny just occurred to me; Bra and Trunks are named after different forms of underwear, like the rest of the Briefs family, right?

Well, isn't it weird that Vegeta would let that happen? IDK, I get the feeling that, given his Saiyan pride, he'd insist on giving them vegetable-based names. Or maybe I'm just being silly.

[down][down] Oh, right, he wasn't. He might not be there for Bra's birth, either, if Bulma ends up giving birth while he's away at the tournament.

Though I'm amused by the idea of Bulma tricking him by claiming that she meant the name as in the trunk of a tree, on which vegetables grow.

Then, a few months later, he realizes that vegetables don't grow on trees and swears into the void of space.

I wouldn't assume the characters themselves are actually aware of all the Theme Naming going on around them. "Saiyan name" and "named after a vegetable" are probably not synonymous to Vegeta and he'd probably be pissed at the implication, then a bit embarrassed after realizing it's true.
