Poor, poor, innocent Videl. There's a part of me that wishes Hercule was exposed just give how irritating Mr. Satan's bullshit can get at times when you consider how much it screws over other for the sake of his facade.

Sorry Hercule shes taken.

Also after watching Super you can really tell the differance in muscle tone.

@ Prime: It's a very tempting scenario, believe me. But without Hercule's Fake Ultimate Hero shtick, the end of the Buu Saga might've gone quite differently. (And Super shows Hercule is noticeably more humble about his, ahem, "achievements.")

@X 2 X Without his fake hero stuff, Gohan could have just killed Buu if they waited for him because Gohan was strong enough to do it.

In a very real sense, the fate of the cosmos depends on everyone rolling over to make Mr. Satan look good in public.

No one seems all that concerned with the Rob Liefeldian 'roid monsters constantly growling at everyone.

Yamcha's reaction to the girls' fighting is the same as mine.

Why is Chichi struggling financially? Isn't her dad rich?

Maron is such a good daughter!

Goku explicitly says they should just have Gohan come in and end things, but Vegeta wanted to go for symbolism.

Chichi, that's bullshit! Vegeta left Goku a broken wreck last time they fought.

At least this one (presumably) smells better.

@ Prime: Possibly, but I'm not sure how long you can afford to wait when Kid Buu is capable of destroying planets in seconds.

Personally, I'm fine with what we got, even if Gohan unfortunately ends up shafted one time too many in this leg of the series. (And admittedly, my memory of the final battle is somewhat hazy.)

@ Beary: IIRC, the Ox King's riches have been steadily dwindling since the olden days.

[up][up]It would have only taken seconds for Gohan to end things. He was that far above Kid Buu and he wasn't going to destroy the planet because he wanted a fight. And that's assuming for some reason Gohan wouldn't be able to stop him from blowing up the planet.

@Beary That's because everyone and their brother on this show can handle some 'roided up nutjobs. But nutjobs hopped up on black magic? No one saw that coming. I sure as hell didn't.

[up][up][up] Hooray for the lack of a nose!

[up][up] I'll refer to my above addendum.

Also, we've been shown consistently that Saiyan pride trumps rational thought and decision making, so it's definitely in-character no matter how dumb we can all agree it is.

@Roxijus Wait, what are you responding to? [lol] I was just talking about Videl thinking that her father is hot shit when he's not.

Honestly, at times I wonder how he'd stack up against even non-Ki users given that we've seen how complacent he is. I feel some people's claims that he's the strongest non-KI using human isn't all that legitimate either.

Don't get me wrong, there are things about him I like, but I do feel some aspects of him are overlooked because he's funny and has redeemable qualities.

I question Piccolo being scared of Supreme Kai. Piccolo is strong, and Supreme Kai never amounts to anything in the entire series except making info dumps and providing Speedwagonian commentary.

That's right, boys. Mondo cool.

[up][up][up]It wasn't about pride in this case. Goku is the one who suggested it. But, we can talk about it when we actually get to that point in the story.

[up]He was still way out of Piccolo's league.

Thaaaaaat's a dunk.

Epic, but not as epic as farting in someone's face to out-stank them for the win.

Rare footage of Krillin being badass. Way to go.
