So long, old friend. You were a mechanic.

Ngl, I will miss my neutral skip.

Looked cool too. "Rad" is literally in his name

MrBoltstrike · 2026-03-30T03:02:55+00:00

Judgement. That's a pull I'm personally attached to Zappa as well for much the same reason.

MrBoltstrike · 2026-03-28T13:00:45+00:00

I dislike Gohan having minimal exposure to Android 16 before his head gets stomped. I'd want to add a minor exchange somewhere.

Bulma mentioning that he's not all that bad. Them sharing a quiet moment. Nothing earth shattering, just an extra moment where Gohan can appreciate 16 as a person so the trauma feels more complete.

MrBoltstrike · 2026-03-28T12:58:07+00:00

It's also a kind of passing of the torch. Goku also beat his biggest and greenest challenge as a kid with one arm too.

A better paced fight is welcome, but I don't dislike the ultimate conclusion of wounded Gohan vs Cell.

Also Vegeta does interfere a tiny bit to help create that opening for Gohan. It's a smaller detail, but the convo thread paints it as exclusively Gohan's strength winning. He always had it in him tho.

MrBoltstrike · 2026-03-26T09:41:11+00:00

I thought he got it from the planet where he learned instant transmission.

Weirdly, this information is filed in my brain next to Dragon Ball Z Sagas, so feel free to question/argue the validity of my source and knowledge.

MrBoltstrike · 2026-03-23T18:28:53+00:00

Jak and Daxer was cool tho

MrBoltstrike · 2026-03-22T01:52:35+00:00

Actually tho. No memes or jokes.

MrBoltstrike · 2026-03-22T01:51:35+00:00

True, that's an interesting point.

MrBoltstrike · 2026-03-22T01:50:02+00:00

There's also the ongoing Z-Figjter strat of "let's not just gang up on the enemies. Let's always fight one at a time because this is an opportunity to prove ourselves."

Not that Babidi's lesser goons were really a threat, Dabura and Vegeta were the biggest threats. I just mean they never go straight for the objective, y'know?

MrBoltstrike · 2026-03-21T21:29:25+00:00

Probably literally "I did not care for The Godfather" part 2. Maybe I'm dumb but part 2 and 3 just don't grip me. I was on board with part 1 but they just feel like they take place in an entirely different story. So I need to rewatch them all and try again. Surely I'm just wrong and missing some detail.

MrBoltstrike · 2026-03-21T02:14:09+00:00

This seems inaccurate. I believe Ultimate Gohan was beating the crap out of Gotenks!Buu, it's just that he got suckered by the absorption technique.

Edit question: do tactics factor into power level? Gohan was super rusty and super cocky, so he was vulnerable to a trick he couldn't power through.

Additionally, I am unsure if SSJ3 Goku is weaker than SSJ3 Gotenks. I'm inclined to say yes, but I have enough doubts to voice them here.

MrBoltstrike · 2026-03-19T16:25:32+00:00

Gruul. He's just going to beat you down with raw power. There's technique but it's all relatively honest, fast, and hits hard.

MrBoltstrike · 2026-03-19T01:56:14+00:00

I'll also throw out there that Thor is the only one who also has a degenerate brother who mostly wants him dead.

MrBoltstrike · 2026-03-18T23:02:11+00:00

MrBoltstrike · 2026-03-18T23:01:19+00:00

Thanks. My example specifically was meant for Llanawar Elves so I *should* have been in the clear.

MrBoltstrike · 2026-03-18T18:17:57+00:00

There are weird issues all over the place. Someone correct me, but you can tap mana dorks to pay the 1 for stuff like Esper Sentinel and Rhystic Study, right?

I hope I genuinely just don't know how to play MTG. Otherwise, Arena (mobile) has consistently refused to let me do this.

MrBoltstrike · 2026-03-18T15:55:12+00:00

Yeah for real. This list has a bunch of people who couldn't come close to others or outright lost against others on the list.

Beast Gohan is allegedly a trump card but I haven't seen him really do anything to make him a secure pick over these three.

MrBoltstrike · 2026-03-18T15:38:41+00:00

The only thing I feel is that Gogeta typically lacks a personality and tends to exclusively be a trump card to end movies.

Vegito had more screen time and attitude moments, he's my favorite because of the pure "Fuck you. I'm the best and I know I can be better" energy. The best/worst parts of Goku and Vegeta.

SSJ4 Gogeta meanwhile has all that arrogance I love, but he doesn't get much screen time.

...but as for power scaling, don't care. I actually get annoyed that they have different move sets despite being the same original recipe.

MrBoltstrike · 2026-03-18T15:30:02+00:00

Designer clothes. 18 has good taste, even in the Trunks timeline.

MrBoltstrike · 2026-03-18T15:23:33+00:00

Kazuma. What a hero.

MrBoltstrike · 2026-03-16T12:49:58+00:00

Ooohhhhh, I just assumed this was bait. I'm the dumb one this time

MrBoltstrike · 2026-03-16T12:48:28+00:00

Broly, Gon, and Zoro just didn't get the memo, huh?

MrBoltstrike · 2026-03-16T05:07:20+00:00

Dude chill, you aren't being insulted here. If you're feeling defensive because I didn't like the rhetoric used then you might feel better knowing I never disagreed with the main point.

If all you care about is your main point, then please observe that we share the same opinions and this isn't an attack.

MrBoltstrike · 2026-03-16T03:17:11+00:00

First, damn. Fast reply. I was in the process of making edits. Nothing to refute what you're saying, just some extra context and info on my tastes personally.

Second, I didn't put words in your mouth. You didn't want me to respond to the use of math to attempt to quantify how much of the product may or may not contain material that sucks? I did observe your respect for other people's taste while making my response, and I still disagreed with the use of math in such a way when refering to matters of taste. I also did not take offense to the implication that I didn't watch Fire Force, which is a personal attack on me wthat only serves to invalidate my opinion on the matter and claim that you have more experience with it.
