Do you want to watch more DBZ movies? I have nothing going on, I'm just playing some "Oekaki Puzzle" japanese nonograms for the playstation for RetroAchievements (but it has 500 puzzles which is a weeks-long endeavor) If you slept at a more normal time in the last few days you can likely still get back to that, seeing as the inverse haunts me constantly when I try to fix my schedule but keep waking up when I had been prior days

i don't think canonicity discussions even work in regards to dragonball. if you want to be very technical about it, super isn't canon either as it contradicts the epilogue directly already. at least GT doesn't contradict toriyama's original run of dragonball (okay it might a little, but only in ways that DBZ already did generally. it's like a continuation of toei's 90s dragonball, while super is a continuation of idk what. it's just toriyama played like 2% a roll in GT and he played like 10% a roll in super or something. he played like 90% roll in daima, but no one is going around calling daima canon (except toyotaro, toriyama's successor, who says all of dragonball is canon) gt, daima, and super are just 3 different post buu series. i also don't really know what's more tense about the english dub. the dialogue changes you mention apply to the whole franchise in english. i'd have to check through all of it but off the top of my head, gt english goku sounds more like captain planet, and syn shenron sounds less like a punitive wise but evil old dragon and more like a demonic super villian, i guess. ughh slept until 6. i've never felt so depressed before (ok actually i've felt more depressed than this once or twice) rare total motivation depressed state for me. we don't know who to even have front. we wish we could reload a previous save

Interesting stuff. 😁

Admittedly GT makes sense to go straight to, although there should be some kind of pause or in-between so you recognize it as as separate as it is to the entire rest of the fandom (GT is rarely talked about, comparatively) Not quite a One Piece-sized pause, though Definitely before Super would be good though, it's quite long and also came out 18 years later, so quite literally a One Piece-sized break would make sense for that one (though I don't expect you guys to finish all of One Piece before watching other things of course) Oh yeah, they're working on a remake of the first Super saga anyways

Maybe. No promises because Linda really likes Dragon Ball.

Anyways LOTPW must start its One Piece arc before moving on to GT... (please)

Blep!

The problem is the show is really not like that until the very end lol, it's originally more lighthearted like a kids' action cartoon, but the american localization replaced the music to make it edgier and rewrote dialogue/added dialogue during staredowns not in the original to try to make it more tense They're correct that that is what we wanted, but like... it's not what it was lol

I get you Sick intro, reminds me of samurai champloo

Being nostalgic for the stupid intro helped our willingness to watch it lol I wasn't saying they're the same thing, just an example of "canon-ness" dissuading us from watching something we might otherwise like

I would consider that different

GT is a continuation from Dragon Ball Z ten or so years later, but it was entirely made by TV producers and not Toriyama It's alright, not as bad as the reputation it has, although the american dub is heavily edited to be "cooler" sounding than it was intended to be with a lot of changed dialogue (including some kinda nonsensically when compared to the original that was just fine) But then of course there's Super, which came far later, and is canon again - completely ignoring GT - so it was a really hard sell for me who cares about canon-ness a lot

Also what is gt even about

I'm just listening in because I know nothing, lol.

No no, just the setting (following a previous fallen human's could've-been story)

So you're saying that you think you already have the plot figured out?

I'm actually not someone who gets bugged by a person talking to me too much about something they're recommending, I'm more likely to be convinced But yeah most people are like that for some reason - I almost get it because I do get that effect from "only kind of hearing about" something popular constantly, even Undertale I initially avoided because I didn't like all the hoopla about something that looked dumb, but I have never ever felt that from like a friend talking to me about something Of course I often remain opinion unchanged, but at least for me it seems worth a bit of "You'd like it, it -" talk (but I 100% know most people hate this lol so don't let that instinct to not go) Anyways it's hard to believe it's not what I think it is when it's literally about a previous human in the Undertale lore is it not? I do know it's so old all the characters are different though

Seems like a dumb reason to not play a game, but whatever Usually I'd agree with you and maybe only check out a fangame because it's so bad it's good. I have no idea if gt is supposed to be lore accurate, or if it makes its own canon, but yellow is pretty much completely out of the way of the main canon and is able to be enjoyed as its own standalone experience while still being in the same setting. I'm saying this just to clarify so maybe you'll be slightly less averse, but I don't want to yuck your yum by being too autistic about it either It's still a good game Maybe helluva boss is a bad example of what I'm talking about, but it's all I could think of

The almost is because it's only roughly the same aversion I had to Dragon Ball GT which after a lot of convincing we did eventually watch as well, though a game is a lot more commitment for us, and this still assumes we'll have the ability to commit to playing a game we "kind of want to play" in the first place So after Deltarune is finished & if we get Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation treatments that improve our brain function, then there'd be a decent chance of us playing it But obviously those are huge assumptions so Edit: I wanted to follow that post up immediately but very nice of you to just accept it as-was despite how important it is to you

Okay

Almost assuredly not, I have an autistic aversion to "non-canon" things, on top of failing to play things I really want to play like Deltarune and Antonblast already It seems really high quality though

Will YOU ever play yellow?

Definitely noted! 😁 Little scared what Yellow is like then.

Yellow is probably a long ways away for them, at least mentally Though you can do that in Undertale too most of the time, it's not necessarily "important", just more dialogue for those (like me) that enjoy every dialogue they can find
