Since the bandwagon for this has appeared...

[Fantastische Hure]

Nintendo wanted to have him compared to the cuteness of and failed spectacularly.

That's an unfair standard to compare him to though. No-one can surpass .

 

[Keedounan]

Most badass character in FMA ?

 

[Captain Cadaver]

Probably Kimblee due to his calm, calculated nature, constantly finding and calling out the flaws in other characters' goals, not to mention his cool exit from the story.

Top 10 smartest characters in DB ?

 

[Captain Cadaver]

#1 - Bulma
#2 - Dr. Gero
#3 - Vegeta
#4 - Freeza
#5 - Piccolo
#6 - Kuririn
#7 - Gohan
#8 - Videl
#9 - Cell
#10 - Dr. Briefs

Bulma was capable of creating a Time Machine, has been described as a genuis by the likes Senbei and her father and has been such since an early age, so her scientific knowledge places her intelligence above the rest. Gero is next for similar expertise. Vegeta is 3rd for his intelligent tactics on Namek, his escape from Freeza's spaceship being a stand out and immediately analysing what kind of technique the Kienzan was, whilst Freeza comes next due to catching on quickly to things such as Moori aiming for the Scouters or Dende's healing ability and countering such accordingly. Piccolo is next as whilst he's attempted to be portrayed as one of the smarter fighters, he doesn't make many smart observations outside of combat aside from noting what a good choice in terrain for the battle Gero made. Kuririn is next for the exact opposite, making quite a few intelligent decisions and a few noteworthy tactics, yet failing time after time to make good use of the Kienzan + Taiyoken combo. Gohan is 7th due to generally being a well read scholar and being more rational than most of the other cast members, whilst his wife is next due to her figuring out the Great Saiyaman's identity being a well played move. Cell is next due to some good hit and run tactics in his first form and quick observations in battle, yet is no higher due to making some dumb decisions such as forgetting about Piccolo's regeneration. Finally, there's Dr. Briefs as whilst he may be a scientific genius, his intellect in other areas is little, such as mistaking the police officer for Goku when they first met.

There are some older, sagely characters I could've included like Roshi, Karin, Kami, Kaio, etc. but didn't due to them relying purely on their reputation, being more hype than feats. I could've also included Dr. Mu for similar reasons as Gero, but didn't seeing as how he was a puppet for Baby, so the creation of the Machine Mutants and their power was at best a 50 - 50 split.

What did you think of PokèMon Movie 20? I thought was gr9 to be honest.

 

[Papasmurf]

You ever read Shin Angyo Onshi?

You ever read Shin Angyo Onshi?

Not yet for either. Would you recommend Shin Angyo Onshi, Kenshi?

 

[Papasmurf]

It's good up until the ending, at least moreso than other series that went to shit at the end like Death Note.

My favourite music in a video-game ever maybe, what do you think? Sadly they never released the actual track, so the best you can do is just leave it on the menu when you have the game. There's no full version seemingly.:

Another good song. I heard this when I played Raging-Blast 2 first. There's another track from there that I really liked as-well.

They're both alright, though the first one gets a bit repetitive after a while and the 2nd one has a bit too much of an electronic feel to it for my taste (though less so than 90% of the other BT2 tracks). Personally, I prefer a lot more tracks from the 3 main Budokai games.

Yeah, I think the reason the first one got so repetitive to you is because it was put on a loop l0l. There was never a full track released sadly.

What do you think of these two classic PokéMon tracks?

Also first one is Digimon Frontier evolution theme and second is the opening for Adventure 02. Are they good, in your opinion?

I'm asking too many music questions.

 

[Captain Cadaver]

I like both Pokemon tracks, particularly the latter (though nostalgia may have some ruling over that decision). The Digimon openings are alright, I prefer the 02 opening far more than the Frontier opening, though I far prefer Butter-Fly and The Biggest Dreamer in terms of Kouji Wada's contributions to the franchise.

Yeah, Biggest Dreamer would probably be my favourite Digimon related song ever. One of my favourite songs period maybe even. Also have nostalgia for the German version of that so maybe that helps as-well.

I know you said something that implied you already knew the Biggest Dreamer.

Also the Digimon Frontier one was the Evolution song and not the opening. Nit-picking.

I thought you didn't watch any of the Digimon series, how do you know of the openings so well?

 

[Captain Cadaver]

I haven't watched any of the anime series, though wandering around on Youtube after seeing the song Butter-Fly used in various lists regarding anime openings brought me to finding out how good the anime's openings were. Shame Wada died so young.

What if I told you this is really how Guts' monster child was conceived?

 

[Captain Cadaver]

It'd strengthen the argument that Griffith did nothing wrong.

 

[Keedounan]

What were the worst asspulls in your opinion ?

 

[Captain Cadaver]

That's hard to say if we're looking at the worst asspull in fiction, so I'll just list a few in no particular order.

Alluka healing Gon (Hunter X Hunter) - There was no reason to introduce a bunch of requirements to his/her wish granting if it gets negated just by their love for Killua.

Rinne Tensei reviving Pain's victims (Naruto) - Hardly any tension in the arc when the main villain of all people acts as a set of Dragon Balls after a Talk no Jutsu.

The DT rival characters' gains in the Three Kings Arc (Yu Yu Hakusho) - Somehow they gain S Class power from just an extension of the training that didn't push Yusuke into another class of power. Hell, Kurama makes just as great gains despite not even training with them. The crowning turd in the waterpipe here is that the power they gained ended up playing zero role in the plot anyway and was just a way to shoehorn them into the last arc.

Most aspects of the Throne Arc's finale (Kinnikuman) - Suddenly Suguru has a heart condition he's had since childhood out of nowhere to act as a hint of him not being the true prince, before this is retconned shortly after to him having just been fatigued from his previous fights. There's also 4 Chojin easily defeating 4 of the Evil Gods, despite 2 of the said Chojin being absolute jobbers.

Toriko's familial heritage (Toriko) - Suddenly Starjun's his brother and Acacia's his father despite these familial ties not really changing how they view one another. Pointless twist that exists only to act as a plot twist.

Season 6/7 Arya's abilities in general (Game of Thrones) - Somehow in a series dedicated to not giving characters plot armour and having a sense of realism to it's fantasy, somehow she's able to run across a busy street whilst heavily wounded, kill an expert assassin in the dark, later impersonate someone taller than her without finishing her Faceless Man training, become an expert at making pies to the extent she can make enough to poison an entire house and is able to disguise as her previous victim Walder Frey whilst doing so.

Korra mastering 3 Elements as a child (Avatar: The Legend of Korra) - 'Member when it took years or at least months of intense training for an Avatar to master the Elements? Korra sure doesn't.

Rey's Mary Sueing (Star Wars Episode VII: The Force Awakens) - Somehow she can understand what droids say, understand Wookiee, mind trick someone without any training and defeat a powerful Force user (even if he was unbalanced) with no Lightsaber training.

Time resets in general - All they serve is the purpose of rewriting the series' events and making consequence non-existent. The only series in which I found it to be a positive addition in a serious manner was Part 4 of JoJo's Bizarre Adventure, as both the heroes and antagonist were able to use it for equal opportunities rather than only one side being able to abuse it indefinitely.

I could've listed plenty of others from series such as Dragon Ball, Bleach, Tokyo Ghoul, etc., which may very well be worse than those I've listed, but I thought I may as well list a few notable examples that grind my gears.

What about a top ten worst asspulls in Dragon Ball, then ?
