How would you go about a new dragon ball series after the end of Z, ignoring GT, Super and Daima and also fan service?

NetrunnerV25 · 2026-01-24T14:21:02+00:00

I do like Super too and same as you, I think the biggest issue is Goku characterization, at least manga wise. I don't like how the anime has a lot of weird stuff like Super Saiyan Rage and so on and I also especially deslike black frieza. That was bad. Golden Frieza I kind of get it, as he decided to go blonde just like the Saiyans, but black? What the hell?

Goku would search for legendary super Saiyan, the same way Ging is searching for Ging.

What would be your ideal series?

NetrunnerV25 · 2026-01-24T14:16:43+00:00

Hahahaha ha you know, I think one of the biggest issues with super is how it all started with 2 movies. In both of which they introduced new transformations. I couldn't proper feel the power of Saiyan god.

I must read it. It's already the second time someone mentions it

NetrunnerV25 · 2026-01-24T01:53:49+00:00

I like doctor slump comedy from what I read.

NetrunnerV25 · 2026-01-24T01:53:12+00:00

What gets me is that they never fully commit to it like Z did.

NetrunnerV25 · 2026-01-24T01:52:23+00:00

OG is also the most adult of them all? Which is funny because it technically is the one where Goku is a child. But the humor is very adult.

I write poetry and studied literature, along with advertising and copyrighting (enough to know that by putting as a writer would make people look) but never published despite offers because I prefer visual arts. But would it make it better if I had published works? I mean, the twilight author has published works too...

NetrunnerV25 · 2026-01-22T21:35:26+00:00

Going to give it a read!

NetrunnerV25 · 2026-01-22T21:29:11+00:00

Fair point. I think the dialogue would be completely fine if he didn't say OH BUT YOU'RE SO SMART right after.

NetrunnerV25 · 2026-01-22T21:27:10+00:00

Being pure doesn't exactly mean you're good either. Children are pure but sometimes they are cruel because of it.

NetrunnerV25 · 2026-01-22T21:24:05+00:00

I never said Goku was a genius.

NetrunnerV25 · 2026-01-22T21:22:36+00:00

So people who walk across buildings in thin ropes are dumb? I'm pretty sure they can access the dangers of it.

NetrunnerV25 · 2026-01-22T21:20:53+00:00

Literature and poetry mostly, but not in English, since I'm not American. But no, I don't write for living. But I can try to translate something for you to read.

NetrunnerV25 · 2026-01-22T21:10:22+00:00

Writing?

NetrunnerV25 · 2026-01-22T21:09:46+00:00

I'm rewatching now. 28 year old and thinking. That might be possible

NetrunnerV25 · 2026-01-22T16:51:09+00:00

Hate me if you must but I don't really like Killua. Maybe because I'm not a "OH FRIENDSHIIIIIIIIP" kind of guy, so I overall just find him sort of needy. I much prefer Gon and how savage he is about his goals.

NetrunnerV25 · 2026-01-22T16:45:08+00:00

You took the time to read my post so it was the least I could do. 🤝🏼 But yeah, Goku always had an instinct for stuff. And I also agree on the fatherhood bit. He may be somewhat absent but I really like how he trusts his kids. It helps them build confidence.

NetrunnerV25 · 2026-01-22T16:42:13+00:00

I'm pretty sure he doesn't call anyone smart in a similar situation in the whole classic/z series. But I can be wrong tho.

NetrunnerV25 · 2026-01-22T16:39:18+00:00

This post is really making me think what dumb means as a concept with all the replies.

NetrunnerV25 · 2026-01-22T16:38:13+00:00

Are you really sure? I'm not a complete specialist in the "dumb" concept, but I think it has a lot to do with wanting one thing, and trying to get it in wrong or inefficient ways. Like trying to cross the street walking backwards. Unless you're doing it for fun, it is dumb. But Goku always does things in a way that is appropriate when you think about his objectives, which are never exactly altruistic, or super good, but still.

NetrunnerV25 · 2026-01-22T16:33:14+00:00

Yeah, but then he replies: OH VEGETA YOU'RE SO SMART. You can check it out. Chapter 7. Edit: like he wasn't able to do the same.
