    Bulma was never essential to the story of Dragon Ball.

    What's the foil here, anyway? Gokuu is an innocent boy with superpowers. The plot devotes all its focus to Gokuu's battles in which he uses his superpowers to kick ass. He fights strong enemies, he trains to surpass them (although this aspect of the story is never explored in depth. It's not so...

    Bulma was never essential to the story of Dragon Ball.

    There's nothing "great" about a blatantly sexist, stereotypical, and misogynist depiction of a woman who is only ever utilized for perverted gags and bullshit plot devices that always get swept off-screen because the series doesn't care to ever flesh them out. Not sure if you understand that...

    Bulma was never essential to the story of Dragon Ball.

    Already did. Meanwhile, I'm still waiting for you to elaborate how doing one thing at the very start of the series makes you important for the entirety of the series. Oh, right, it doesn't. Bulma sucks dog shit

    If we're being honest, Tupac was definitely a rapist.

    I keep finding out more disturbing things about Toriyama's perversions.

    We all know how he drew a comic where a girl turns to prostitution after repeatedly getting raped. He even said he'd like to spy on his own daughter bathing as an old man. But it turns out he even drew a scene in Dr. Slump where a man molests his young daughter in her sleep. Jesus Christ. And...

    Tenshinhan > Krillin

    Tenshinhan could deflect a blast from Bootenks, survive a kick from Bootenks, and was brought up by Bootenks to scare Gokuu. Tenshinhan > Kurilin

    What Inspired The Frieza Race?

    Freeza himself was inspired by a queen, most likely a Mongolian one. Also a villain from Super Sentai (who was also inspired by Mongolian queens).

    The mystery of Dr. Rota's name.

    "Rotisserie" isn't approximated to Japanese as anything with "rota" in it. Admittedly, I just got "rotavirus" from some guy on Kanzenshuu, but see the bolded: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rotavirus#Other_animals Rotaviruses infect the young of many species of animals and they are a major...

    Was Gohan in Base state at the start of DBS?

    The model sheet says that he only turns Mystic when he powers up.

    The mystery of Dr. Rota's name.

    Looking more into it, his name is probably a pun on "rotavirus". It's a disease that causes diarrhea. It's very common in pigs. Dr. Rota is a boar or warthog, so it's safe to say this is the meaning of his name.

    Episode 6 does reveal that Glorio is a spy for Arinsu.

    The canon as Toriyama left it.

    I'd say no. It's a parody.

    The canon as Toriyama left it.

    Oh, actually, the Pilaf gang does appear in the manga's retelling of BoG. They're climbing a palmtree in the top right panel here: The implication seems to be that they hid when Birus started beating everyone up.

    Catching up with Daima

    The show is mostly boring as fuck before episode 18. I feel bad for anyone who's just now starting it instead of tuning in every week lol

    Tenshinhan > Krillin

    Toriyama didn't make the book. He just contributed illustrations to it.
