Since the bandwagon for this has appeared...

How are you?

 

[Captain Cadaver]

Pretty good. Somewhat busy, though not too much.

 

[SSJ2]

What extremely significant worldwide event occurred exactly 4 days after you joined Zeta?

 

[Captain Cadaver]

Through the power of the internet, I know the biggest earthquake to hit Malaysia since 1975 happened that day. Other than that, no idea.

What do you think is the worse aspect about the DB Fandom?

You can’t be serious. It was the air date of Super episode 1. I’m disappointed.

Probably the shallow nature of the majority caring purely about power levels and power inflation rather than plot or character writing and not caring what's happening with the franchise as long as they get more of the same. That, or the pretentious nature of those who believe power levels are some sort of consistent mathematical formula to dictate the plot rather than just being a plot device and treat it as though their list's "quality" is equivalent to an IQ rating (cough cough ).

Don't lie to yourself. We both know it only became the pivotal force of this era when episode 5 aired.

 

[SSJ2]

Are you more hyped for Dragon ball super broly, or the next arc in Supas manga?

 

[Captain Cadaver]

More hyped for whatever the next lighthearted filler episode is than both if we get another on the level of Baseball God Yamchad.

Probably the new Super Arc since Dai Kaioshin being siphoned from Boo, whilst stupid, is still more interesting than seeing Broly get rewritten into canon and a boatload of information revolving around the events surrounding Planet Vegeta's destruction getting retconned harder than Minus already did.

If you were to do a One-Piece kind-of Special re-telling of the Cell Saga? How'd you do that? Would you change plot-points like the whole bit with Android #19 & #20? How long would you give on the Battle with Cell? Would you make Trunks' warning a fast prologue? Maybe you'd have an hour or an hour and a half or two hours? I don't know since that seems to vary.

It'd probably need to be 2 hours to have any sort of coherent story that isn't too reliant on narration. It would probably be best for all the events before Cell to be made part of the prologue for the movie to feel focused, rather than jumping from one thing to the next with the topic of Artificial Humans being the only thing tying any of it together and removing as many plot hole ridden pieces of dialogue as possible. In the prequel, I'd also show Ten preparing the Shin Kikoho but not having enough time to launch it before #17 defeats him in order to plug that hole.

Most of the time would be spent on the battles Cell was involved in, whilst removing a lot of the dead time part of them such as Cell beating up Gohan and most of the Ultimate Cell. fight being brushed over. As for actually fixing the plot holes, not much could be done to rectify things such as Cell's messy, nonsensical timeline or the Rosat never being brought up before. I would completely change Cell infodumping everything about himself to someone he should know better than anyone could regenerate as to not make him automatically one of the dumbest villains in the franchise. Instead, he'd reveal nothing but his name and a large part of the special would be rewritten for there to be some mystery as the cast try and find out just what he is, making reveals of his techniques as well as perhaps a post-credits scene of Trunks doing cleanup duty on his timeline's threats feel more satisfying.

Your opinion on Dragonball Multiverse?

Fanservice on par with Super. Using alternate timelines to show different aspects of previously established characters is a completely hollow method of character writing, and it doesn't help that most of the fights don't matter when it's established pretty quickly that only a handful of fighters really matter overall. Also, the special chapters showing how many of the timelines came to be were absolutely pointless. We didn't need to see obvious events such as Gohan losing the Kamehameha struggle with Cell (and not even destroying the Earth from this, smh) or Gast killing Freeza when we're already told in his introduction he's the fusion of all Namekians who killed Freeza, Cell and Boo. It also doesn't help that a lot of both the main story and special chapters have pretty big asspulls as far as power consistency goes such as SS3 Goku ~ Gotenks Boo and Goku only ever being scared of Evil Boo because SS3 was hard to control, or someone as strong as Broly having never been brought up in canon events.

Overall, it's only purpose was to appeal to fans who didn't want any actual character development and just wanted to see fanfiction battles come true and have scenarios such as powerful humans or female Super Saiyans. Whilst I hate Super, at least that did the same whilst occasionally building on elements of its characters such as Vegeta and Kuririn and having greater differences between the universes than some single event in the main timeline. It's ironic that DBM was made as a critique of GT as a Dragon Ball sequel when GT had far better character growth and a solid end to the Dragon Ball story.

GT >> Super ~ DBM

In the manga the Cell Saga is about 90 chapters (if I looked right), maybe if you change the dialouge to be shorter and concise you'd be able to do everything although the fights'd feel underwhelming and rushed.

Which wrinkle on Dr. Gero's face is your favourite?

 

[Captain Cadaver]

Definitely the one just below the bridge of his nose.

 

[Ultimate Cell]

Your opinion on Napoleon Boneparte?

 

[Captain Cadaver]

He had good military capability, bar his dumb decision to invade Russia which never works, and his political ability and charisma were just as grand with it being no easy feat for many of the French rallying behind his attempt at a comeback in power. His opinion on religion though was far too disrespectful, such as placing Pope Pius VII under arrest for no real reason and I wouldn't say his attempt at assimilating other nationalities into France was a good idea, as you need look no further than the country's current state to see how poorly forced assimilation works.

How and why do you know everything?

 

[Captain Cadaver]

How - Not sure, but the internet helps.
Why - Knowledge is power.
