  1. Ah, okay. I understand where you're coming from. Sorry if I seemed like a jerk or something, I just assumed that you did have some knowledge of the series, which was wrong of me. Apologies for my jumping to conclusions. Well, there is Dragon Ball Z Kai, which gets rid of most of the filler and helps things move at a much faster pace. Maybe give that a go?
  2. The faults you listed seem to be strictly based off the original DBZ anime version. Have you tried Kai? Gets the point across much faster and kills a lot of the exaggeration. As for offering nothing else but fighting? Yeah, I disagree strongly. Character growth, wonderful character interactions, lovable characters, simple yet likable story arcs, interesting back stories, great music, a unique, magical charm, etc. I'm not going to preach to you that DBZ is some super-duper deep and complex series, because it isn't. However, there is some depth to it that generally flies over most people's heads. Another thing I'll add: DBZ wasn't originally made to be a "wannabe badass" anime, as you put it. No, it's the original Funimation English dub that did that. Why do you think they changed the music to more "hardcore" stuff and tried their best to make "hip and cool" dialogue? Funimation thought that they'd get DBZ more popularity by doing this, in which they did succeed in doing so, but they also ended up butchering half of DBZ in the process and gave people the wrong impression of it.
  3. Eh, I just don't see it. I can't really think of a single saga that went exactly like you listed them to be. But you know what, that's just me. It's obvious we see the series differently, so it's probably for the best if we just agree to disagree.
  4. I don't really feel that way about DBZ. IMO, it had plenty of differences in each saga that set them apart from each other, each having both substance, purpose, and story. And DBZ Kai gets rid of the filler.
  5. - The haters of something are usually more annoying than the fans of something. - None of the mane 6 are "interesting" characters. Lovable? Yes. Interesting? No. - Shipping gets too much flak. - I can enjoy gore fics, provided that they're well written. - I like Hercule/Mr. Satan from DBZ, at least in the Buu saga. - DBZ would have benefited more (quality-wise, not sales-wise) if it had ended at the Cell saga, or with Vegeta's sacrifice. - Anime fans are, as a whole, unbearable to talk to. - Although I like MLP, it's not even in my Top 20 shows of all time. - Fluttershy and Rainbow Dash would make a great couple.
  6. I want to expand my Flutterdash folder, but I'm afraid I'll get a heart attack from the adorableness.

  7. Flutterdash is best ship.
  8. Sure, but that's not really saying much in my case. I don't have any friends, my family and I are constantly battling each other, and I'm just overall not a very sociable person.
  9. Here's my desktop. Nothing too fancy, but I'm satisfied with it.
  10. If someone asks me if I'm a brony, then I'll say that I am and gladly start talking about the show if they want me to. Other than that, I usualyy keep it to myself. There are barely any students in my school who are bronies, so I don't want to force MLP on the ones who aren't.
  11. Applejack is a very mature, strong, and determined pony who tries her best to always be there when her friends need her. She's my least favorite mainly because she's the pony out the Mane 6 who tends to capture my interest the least amount of times. I still like her, though.
  12. What are some shows that you grew up with that you can still enjoy today? For me, it's: Dragon Ball Dragon Ball Z Ed, Edd, 'n' Eddy Spongebob (seasons 1-3) Drake and Josh And that's all I can think of at the moment. I'll edit this post if I think of some more.
  13. Dragon Ball GT. There's a reason why Dragon Ball fans pretend it doesn't exist most of the time whenever it's brought up. .........What was I talking about again?
  14. I love them both, Cell being my favorite villain out of the entire Dragon Ball franchise. Frieza is not that far behind, either.
  15. My favorite is Goku. He's just such a lovable character, and he's the kinda guy you just wanna grow up to be like. Strong, pure of heart, funny, etc. Kid Buu is probably my favorite version of Buu.
  16. What you said is exactly how I feel about Dragon Ball Z. It baffles me how even though it's considered a classic, it still gets more hate than any other classic I know of. Every website I go to has DBZ bashing happening somewhere. Oh well. I still love it.
  17. I pretty much enjoy all of the episodes from the Hillenburg era. Granted, I think season one was a bit dry in comparison to 2 and 3, but it was still good. The worst episodes from the Hillenburg era are still better than the best episodes from season 4 and onwards.
  18. Getting this game for my Wii U right after school today. Can't wait to play it! Loved spending hours playing Monster Hunter Tri on the Wii.
  19. Dragon Ball Z Kai has an overall much better English dub than the original DBZ. Better voice acting, more faithful to the manga, etc.
  20. My OTP is and always will be Flutterdash. It's so damn adorable, and I've read several fanfictions that do the pairing justice.
  21. http://browse.deviantart.com/art/FlutterDash-Cuddle-Bug-341779411 There's a link to where I originally found it, with the artist and everything. He/She has made some good stuff from what I can tell.
  22. Cheerilee's Garden/Scarlet Harvest. Little fillies are brutally murdered, the mane 6 end up dying in disturbing ways, ponies commit suicide, all of Ponyville wants to see Twilight killed, and there's overall little to no hope for a happy conclusion. Great for kids!
  23. It's not that I actually think that Rainbow Dash is canonically gay, it's just that a lot of the lesbian shippings involving her, especially Flutterdash, are heart-breakingly adorable and make for really good pics and fanfics.
  24. I'm a fictional character who died several years ago, along with my home planet,by an evil tyrant out to rule the universe and exterminate by entire race. The only place you'll meet me is in Hell.
