Tarble wasn't born violent and neither was Broly (other than when rampaging which is mostly due to Ikari), plus we know Bardock didn't use to be good. I honestly think people blow that whole "new Bardock is way too soft" thing out of proportion because of nostalgiafagging toward the OG Bardock...
Yeah I'd definitely have preferred if UI had the same PL as SSJB Kaio-ken and it just added the bonus of making his movements extremely efficient. A movement technique making you incalculably stronger made no sense to me, even if the anime played it off as "Goku shattering his limits" and all...
We know Bardock was born like most other Saiyans though since he was stated to have softened up, not been born gentle like Broly or Tarble. Also Vegeta has no knowledge of Bardock and we know soft Saiyans existed before as per the 6 righteous Saiyans being needed for the God ritual so yeah...
I think that's why Whis suggested Goku master his own version of UI, just that the payoff is terrible just like with him completing SSJB through a major asspull. Even if it robs Goku of "agency," it's still the culmination of all of his martial arts training that gave him mastery of movement and...
Then you'd have to disregard the existence of a ton of lines retroactively used to justify and lead into later events. An asspull is something like Potara's existence, which definitely wasn't intended until Fusion Reborn was in production. Ultra Instinct isn't an asspull because Whis already...
Do you want the arcs to be animated by another studio, similar to how OP is being animated in the new remake anime by a studio other than Toei Animation?
Toriyama said Saiyans have naturally longer lifespans than humans unless they die in battle and they quickly become old after 80. Seems like average humans don't live longer than real life people do, it's just people like Roshi and Baba that are the exceptions.
There's also that Super filler in...
That's not in-world writing, that's behind the scenes production stuff. Whis' line indicated that such a technique existed, which makes it as much foreshadowing as Android #20 stating he isn't Dr. Gero, which would've been the case had he been the main villain who killed Gero as Trunks stated...
Pretty sure the (mostly arbitrary) distinction between a sociopath and a psychopath is that the latter are simply born that way while sociopaths have inclinations for ASPD but it's triggered through abuse and trauma.
But the idea of emptying one's mind is a common martial arts mastery trope, and one stressed by Popo. That plus how all of his masters have stressed the importance of doing the bare minimum movement possible to eliminate unnecessary stamina loss (both are things Goku himself attempted with Grade...
Eh, I wouldn't read into it that much. Goku's always been one to relish in reaching new levels of power and breaking his limits, and his masters have been stressing the importance of eliminating unnecessary movement all the way back to Karin and Popo. Vegeta also said in the Granolah arc (as...
Finished volume 5, Xin is about to head to his first real battle after Zheng took back the throne. Hopefully it's as @Future Warrior said and this arc will be better than the last, because it got shonen-y with Xin's whole ability to defeat warriors stronger than himself with resolve and all...
Finished volume 4. Getting a bit shonen-y with the final soul-filled strike at the end and unrealistically high stamina and that giant monster looking dude, but the plot is moving along and it looks like the dethroning of Zheng's bitchfaggot brother is going to be resolved soon.
Just read volume 3. Zheng and co. have infiltrated the castle with the mountain savages in tow. Looking forward to what happens next even though history tells us the outcome.
