Yeah buyer's remorse is like flip flopping your previous story because you feel bad, in this case. Normally it means you regret a previous decision, like a purchase.
Yeah I can buy buyer's remorse on AT's part. A similar and much more extreme example is Crocodile doing way better in Marineford than his lackluster Alabasta feats showed in One Piece. And there wasn't even any mention of him training during the interim.
When Akkuman whipped out the pitchfork Goku said he was going serious ("honki", the same term he used to describe his theoretical SSJG FP in the BoG movie).
Yeah this is pretty hard to refute. Goku even said he wouldn't hold back anymore, although you could still make a case that Kuririn told him not to hold back against him and he still held back his battle level.
The same plots repeated themselves so many times I can barely remember what happened except for Vegeta going SSJ3, and the final 3-4 episodes. They literally rewashed their spaceships getting stolen plot at least 3 times. Maybe even 4 or 5.
I wonder how wealthy his family must've been for him to amass such a large faction. He didn't seem to be a brilliant strategist by any means so he probably inherited that money.
Even in the 23rd his only highlight was beating robot Tao. Which I guess is slightly better than how he was mostly just dead weight in the previous arc.
DB wasn't even fully translated in the Anglosphere until 2006. Super earning bigger bucks than OP's anime did in 2017 with the main series and Film Gold for Toei despite how lackluster Super is, shows which has always been the bigger franchise with the higher popularity. (Hell, even in 2025 DB...
Toriyama was inconsistent with colors in general. Ten's pants were consistently green throughout the manga except the first color art of him in the 23rd which resulted in his pants being purple in the 22nd and Daimao arcs in the anime, Bulma's hair color was originally turquoise and Goku's first...
He managed to read, grab and block Goku's Janken fist until Goku switched the order. Seems like he isn't trailing far behind in physical strength to me, otherwise Goku would just overpower him like Ginyu was overpowering base Goku (pre-Kaio-ken) due to superior physical strength. If Roshi was...
I think Chapter Black was more interesting in concept but Sensui's Seikouki coming out of nowhere and Yusuke then being revived as a Demon Clansman with no prior foreshadowing ruined it. Dark Tournament was "safer" and less irksome as a result. Chapter Black was a bit more entertaining to watch...
