I'm sorry to y'all, and Unnoun in particular, for my attitude today. Taking jokes that were obviously not meant to be literal and earnest as seriously as I did helps nobody. And just lashing out at negativity in general just because I have no actual way to answer or refute it is worthless.

I have a message from another time...

Certain threads around here have been excessively negative lately, its kinda grating me as well.

"never"? That's such a negative word.

We dove too deep into tropes, and now we judge everything too harshly.

I blame Kay....er you know what? I'm gonna start blaming Arha now. I'm sure he'll be okay with that.

I blame me.

All bad things come from me, all good things come from me.

I am alpha and omega.

Appease me, and you will be spared.

Anger me, and there will none who can save you.

Michsi's fancomic was just completed, and another user on Kanzenshuu has compiled it all here.

Since I've been following this series for four years now, all I can think of is...

I swear to Vegeta Kami, if I didn't know better I'd call this a DBZ doujinshi written by Sorachi. Fucking dying right here.

That was amazing start to finish.

My one complaint is Goku showing up... if he's there, why didn't he just... do it? It got handwaved with "that would be a mistake and you know it" but... how exactly? Goku knew enough to at least try to follow superhero tropes.

Because Piccolo and Vegeta were already doing it.

I actually think Goku was getting a kick out of watching Piccolo and Vegeta doing this, and just disguised his teasing as being Innocently Insensitive. He's not as clueless as commonly believed.

I think he means why wouldn't Gohan just ask his dad? The dad who apparently bought Gohan comic books as a child and knows how the routine is supposed to go?

He did go ask his dad.

He might not have been able to find him. Goku can teleport and likes to use that ability to go train somewhere. He might have been on Kaio-sama's planet or something at the time.

Piccolo, on the other hand, doesn't appear to have any hobbies or ever do anything. He's much easier to get ahold of at the spur of the moment.

[up]Implying that Goku would avoid his son.
Whatever would give this fanbase that idea?

When Piccolo brings it up, Gohan says asking Goku would be a bad idea but doesn't elaborate - though Piccolo immediately understands.

I assumed the joke was that they thought Goku would go overboard.

It's not that Goku would avoid his son, but simply go do a thing he wanted to do and not realize Gohan needed him for something.

Avoiding Gohan is a deliberate choice. Simply not being present is a side effect of other choices.
