Berserk would make George R.R. Martin look like a hack. If Tolkien were alive, he’d like Berserk more than him, even if he wasn’t an anime fan.LMAO literally the logic of why GOT is "good."

Maybe I just like the kung-fu and the laser beams.I wasn't saying it necessarily made it more mature, I was just saying more sex and violence makes it more entertaining, to where I don't really get why an adult would bother with something that's more toned down, as soon as I learned there was sexier and edgier anime than DBZ, DBZ just seemed boring to me, like why waste your time?
They're mental midgets, that's too much of an ask. Egotripping is all they care about.I wish these fuckers would take the central lesson of Dragon Ball's protagonist to heart:
When you get your shit pushed in, you don't whine, you don't cry on the internet, you take the L and you go and train hard and avoid making the same mistake that made you get smacked last time. These people should have fucking push-up/pull-up contests instead of slapfights on twitter.
Great read, very enjoyable OP.
It depends which /a/ you go to. I got curious and went on /a/ on 8chan.moe and saw this gemSpeaking of /a/, which is already a cesspool
True, should clarify that I mean 4chan’s /a/. There’s always at least one thread running and they invariably devovle really quickly.It depends which /a/ you go to. I got curious and went on /a/ on 8chan.moe and saw this gem

That's what I was trying to say, anime and manga aimed at an older audience often simply offers more in the way of story and characters.Yeah, I'm a big fan of Berserk, but that type of argument is pretty weak. People regularly stick to things from their childhood. Not to mention the fact that some things just appeal to people, and they just stick with it. I don't think people have to justify everything they like. The issue with the DB fandom isn't that they like a poorly-written shonen; it's that they're mentally stunted morons.
Also, Berserk isn't good because it's "dark and gritty with all the sex and violence", it's good because the story is solid, the characters make sense, and it was done by an extremely skilled draftsman.
I didn't mean to come off as overly harsh, if you like DBZ and other shows like it, that's fine, I was just saying that the people who are really into it like the ones featured in this thread come off as particularly odd to me for the reasons I stated.Maybe I just like the kung-fu and the laser beams.

I was quite hard on Dragon Ball in my earlier post as well, but I'm pretty sure most people in the thread don't actually really hate Dragon Ball. I for one quite enjoyed the original Dragon Ball anime and thought it was something sufficiently entertaining to put on and just turn off your brain to. If you enjoy the franchise, good on you, almost no one is gonna blame you for that. My biggest problem with it isn't that it's a "dumb" shounen that's not "mature enough for my refined tastes" or that there isn't much depth to it, my main problem with it when I tried to watch it was the pacing, and how you could cut out 90% of the time-wasting screaming, charging up, and internal monologuing and you would have a way more tolerable show. It obviously helps having some sort of previous relationship with the show, like if you grew up on it you're gonna have nostalgia for it and be willing to overlook it's flaws when you watch it now. Most people trying to get into Dragon Ball in the current year with no previous relationship to it are gonna find it way harder to watch.That's what I was trying to say, anime and manga aimed at an older audience often simply offers more in the way of story and characters.
But on the flipside to that, if you're just looking for entertainment, stuff aimed at an older audience offers more in the way of that in my opinion.
Of course I get childhood nostalgia and all that.

That’s one of those character cross mcguffins right? That’s literally about all I know from DBZ, save for Goku and Kamahamas or whatever the fuck they call it.View attachment 2315189
Couldn't these horny retards at least keep the lore in mind and give Gogeta black hair? If you're going to be autistic at least do it right.
We have a solution to your problem, DBZ Kai is basically what you're asking for.my main problem with it when I tried to watch it was the pacing, and how you could cut out 90% of the time-wasting screaming, charging up, and internal monologuing and you would have a way more tolerable show.
I liked it as a kid but for me personally it was just a gateway into the wider world of anime that I never saw much point in going back to.I was quite hard on Dragon Ball in my earlier post as well, but I'm pretty sure most people in the thread don't actually really hate Dragon Ball.

That's what made DBZ charming though.my main problem with it when I tried to watch it was the pacing, and how you could cut out 90% of the time-wasting screaming, charging up, and internal monologuing and you would have a way more tolerable show.
If you're gonna watch it, I recommend getting the Dragon Box sets over all other copies. The Level sets are good remasters but they're rare, expensive & were deliberately given additional film grain to look "authentic", essentially ruining it anyway. The Dragon Box sets are DBZ but unadulterated with any shitty remade scenes, cropped aspect ratio or artificially added noise.Just realised that despite the immense potential of this thread, I really have to understand the source material to truly appreciate how retarded these dudes are.
It is, even though it strangely lacks any black representation leads.So is the dragon ball community just ran by a bunch of fat black losers now ?
You had Staff Officer Black.It is, even though it strangely lacks any black representation leads.
Strange. I guess Mr. Popo counts.
At the time I don't think Kai had even started airing, and by the time it did start or I heard about it I had already lost interest. I did hear that it was shit like you said though, which made me even less open to trying it.We have a solution to your problem, DBZ Kai is basically what you're asking for.
DBZ Kai is legit shit though, many of the scenes were remade and done exceptionally poorly. It was a totally pointless endeavor & warrants a fan edit where the original content is put back in.

Eternal Truth #4: black people are the biggest weebs on the planet. If exposed to anime or JRPGs they simply cannot help themselves.fuck man why are so many fags and niggers into dragon ball, this is why we cant have nice thing
