It consists of an amnesiac protagonist acting as a bland self insert, continuity being nonsensical due to time travel and such cliches as Shallot's brother being one of the main villains.

When was that revealed?

In other words, fan-fiction :trash on the same level as Xenoverse, probably even lower since at least Xenoverse brought a new spin on DBO concepts such as Mira, Towa, Time Patrol Trunks, etc. and brought new concepts to the table like the Kaioshin of Time.

While Legends isn't anything groundbreaking I still think it's still leagues better than XV when it comes to character development/arcs. Hell it even shed more light on Nappa more than the series ever did. While the plot as a concept is fan-fictiony I don't see anything wrong with it as long as it's executed properly.

Only bothered looking up info on DBWiki, so that could be completely inaccurate. Considering how much emphasis is placed on his connection to Shallot, however, I see the only other option as being an alternate universe Shallot, which makes him even more of a hollow character.

That's actually pretty interesting. Is the insight into his character anything major, or just better than being just the typical dumb brute?

Proper execution's not happening with an amnesiac protagonist trying to get back to square one and time travel that isn't of the closed loop variety tho'. :et

It's gives more insight into his character as far as being far more than a one-dimensional character. During the battle against Freeza, Captain Ginyu even shows his respect by saying he now sees Nappa as more than just Vegeta's simply minded lackey.

That doesn't become problematic to the point where it ruins the plot progression in any way imo. Unlike DBS the story tries to get out of the safe zone by utilizing it's characters that came from different time-periods with their own unique roles in the story that often differ quite greatly from the original series and often adds even more depth to it's lore. To list some examples if you don't mind spoilers...


1. The entire plot is started by a a mysterious person kidnapping Kaioshin and threatens to kill him (which also ends up killing Beerus) if they don't start the Tournament of Time
2. Saiyan in Red constantly labels Shallot as having the ''blood of the defeated'' is sort of implying that Shallot is related to the pure hearted Saiyans that ended up dying out during the war against the Evil Saiyans (Though he comes from an era even before that time period since the concept of a SSJ is never head upon to him) , which gives more depth to his character.
3. We have a new character called Zahha (We don't know his origins yet tho)
4. It is consistent when it comes to strength progression as it always feels the need to comment when someone gets an increase in power and a reason for it.
5. A student/master relationship between Shallot and Vegeta/Nappa.
6. You are working undercover under Beerus to work with Freeza in order to find out who ''Fake Freeza'' is that's taking over the throne of leading the Freeza force (later revealed to be Frost).
7. There is an alliance between Frost, Tullece, and Dr. Gero (Though Tullece is revealed to be only using Frost for his own personal benefits). Dr. Gero's role is to harvest a prototype version of the Shinseijuu fruit which we see is constantly used by the Freeza force in part 2. He also created multiple clones of #19 and himself.
8. Vegeta's sacrifice against Freeza sheds some light on how the once prideful image of the Saiyan race were reduced to be just mindless pawns under the command of Lord Freeza, but sees Shallot's true Saiyan pride as something to preserve. This makes Shallot's ascension to SSJ a lot more believable as he fights to preserve the prideful image of the Saiyan race that Vegeta and Nappa had always fought for.

Bohemian Rhapsody is quite good. As far as Queen songs go, however, Killer Queen and Another one Bites the Dust are better though (and not just because JoJo reference).

They're more or less around the same level as Bohemian Rhapsody, though get overused in pop culture a bit too much to have the same level of impact.

Would you rather be forced to post exclusively on Neoseeker or Pojo?

Toshit isn't on Neo iirc and the mods aren't anywhere near as contradictive as Pojo, so there.

Would you rather stay in a swimming pool for 24 hours with 1,000 amphibious rats or 1 adult elephant?

Why do you think we seldom hear of black mass shootings? Do you think they don't have the balls to commit mass murders of that magnitude out of fear of being buttfucked by the police? :manabu

Assuming the hypothetical elephant isn't amphibious as well, definitely the elephant. Unless it's one that's witnessed its kind killed by poachers, it wouldn't be aggressive and even if it were, I could outswim it until I get the opportunity to climb on its back.

Outside of most of the non-BLM blacks not having any real reason to commit shootings on a mass scale, any that would occur would just be swept under the rug so the media's far left leaning agenda wouldn't be tarnished any more than it already has (as if that were possible at this point).

Somewhat. It purely depends on the topic at hand, since there are some left wing policies I agree with such as less restrictions on national markets, but I generally agree with the right wing in terms of policies such as family, security, work, rulership and religion.

Even if I were to align with the centrists, however, my opinion on the far left (ie. SJWs) would remain the same as their influence in both the media and education is incredibly apparent and quite harmful. You know a society's been manipulated for the worse when children are unaware of what gender they are. :alex2

Dost not lie.

Is the true reason that you have not uploaded your picture because it would expose yourself for being a tranny? :manabu
