Post random facts about yourself even if they are obvious

I like Transformers and My Little Pony Friendship is Magic. My favourite TF movie is Transformers 1986. Despite Hotrod's blundering in his attempt to save Optimus, he did redeem himself at the end of the film.

A random fact about myself? trying not to hate Dragonball, as there are some things that fiction and its writers did well at.

But it is so bogged down with contrivances and inconsistencies that I cringe at today. It has not aged well, at all. I remember earlier in the series where King Kai told Tien and Yamcha that Chiaotzu would not die from getting faceplanted on his planet which had extreme gravity they were still getting used to, due to being already dead, then they retconned the immortality of spirits in the afterlife by making it possible for them to be erased, effectively making Other World no better than the Mortal realm, kind of a big deal if you want to ensure spirits a safe passage from one world to the next.

Later in the series during Cell arc, Cell claims he can only be destroyed if the nucleus in his head is taken out, but his head got completely blown off by Goku's kamehameha earlier in their battle, and he survived and regrew his lost head.

Yes, in the Buu saga, the soul erasure thing does raise the stakes of the fight, but it also makes Other World completely unsafe when villains can just waltz in and blow it all to smithereens. You think residents of Heaven would feel protected if they were told that it was possible for somebody to come in and delete them?

and with Zeno into the equation later, Heaven is now useless.
