what is it about that show that makes it so easy to pull apart? It takes 5 episodes to power up and then "Oh no! He is even stronger! I must power up more! AHHHHH!!"
How the hell is it that the bad guys always get stronger faster? Seems a tad unfair, don't you think? Its' a trap!
I mean come ON! I honestly think the writers were on crack! The voice acting is really something else, but that can be written up to the writing. The 80s were not that good to cartoons, was it?
"oh, ah! I must fight! Unn." Ok, are these people fighting or having sex? WHAT?! Turn on an episode and turn away. What does it sound like to you? Be honest! It is a fight, we get it! We don't need 20 minutes of extra sound effects! And look at it this way. The main characters take a beating in EVERY episode! If they are SO powerful, don't you think they could take it like the men they are? With a little less huffing, puffing and groaning?
While we are on the subject: Hair! My GOD the hair! and the many colors and styles it changes to! I will always remember Chi Chi. She is so happy to see her husband and son. They have blond hair and blue (ish green? ) eyes. She doesn't care about her husband, oh no, she starts to cry because her son is now a "punk" because of his hair. stressed The hell?! So all kids with blond hair and blue eyes are punks? Does she think is is going to turn into a mini-Hitler? I smell something strange with the writing on that one!
Let us move on to more hair. Bald is beautiful? Why yes. What confuses me is the mass time skips within the show that allows someone to grow hair in the span of one episode! Bald for the first 4 (? ) seasons and unable to grow hair. I think they actually mentioned trying but never being able to grow it. He gets married and suddenly, HAIR! Ok, I'm no expert, but if all he needed was to get laid by an android to get hair, he needs to bottle that and go to market! He would be rich!
and while we are on the subject of time skips, holy HELL does this show have them! He is 5, 15, 25, 40, 12! My GOD! And then they throw in the training chamber? Time moves around differently? It is 1 year to 5 hours? Or was it 1 year to one hour? I am SO confuse with that whole set up. Really, it is a cheap way to upgrade the characters into something resembling normal humans.
While we are on the subject of normal, the Halo. Thats right folks! When you grow up and die you TOO can have a your very own halo! I forget, did he keep it when he came back and went all super sayan on everyone's a**? Anyone? Oh well. With the amount of times he "dies" he can beat out the Doctor! The Doctor dies and becomes someone new. Goku dies and gets +5 to health and a new hair color ^.^
How about the time travel? Oh yes. Traveling back in time to save your fathers a** for the sake of the mother he left? Did he leave? I forget. Wasn't he possessed? Or was that his wife? Either way, it is yet another character with a daddy complex. "I am nothing like my father! I am stronger!" [insert 3 episode power up] "See! It only took me 3 episodes! That old man takes 5!!!"
Oh yes...that is much better. At least you got your mothers tame hair! I would hate to see ANOTHER clone of a character Goku, Gohan? Just as bad, purple hair with Vegita's style. Talk about bad hair day rofl
Have I talked bout bodies yet? No? Oh GOOD. I have never seen pecks get that big. These guys could give the Governator a run! And it is all in the top half. Have you ever noticed? With all the training, they still look like they have stick legs. How the hell do those size 6 feet hold all of that? It must be those baggy pants. Should I talk about that too? You're flying in the air, trying to be sneaky and hit from behind and you are wearing orange! It's like a ninja in the forest wearing orange! Oh...wait....sorry, wrong show.
Honestly. I think all the bad guys blended into the respected terrains. Air fights were something else when you had a super fast moving target that could BLEND IN! You would think they would take the hint and get a new color. But then again, ALL the characters look pretty much the same. Same body build, face, angles. They only way to tell them apart once they manage to power up is by hearing the moans, groans and seeing the cloths. Honestly. Piccilo has the worst. He is green. He can't blend in unless he is in a forest. But considering the power up destroys the terrain that is within a 40 mile radios, well, not good.
That, too! They power up and destroy any place they might have had to hide. My God, what ARE the writers thinking?
and the WORST part? It is a good show! burning_eyes
wait! Hold the phone! Good?
Why yes, my little can of cheese-wiz! There is nothing in the world like it! You can make fun of everything and still enjoy the show. I haven't come across anything else like it. It is truly no wonder that it the show has lasted this long. I can't wait to see the new Live action movie staring James Marsters! If the fact that they are making a modern version of the show isn't enough to get your engines purring, the fact that James will be playing as the alien Piccilo, well, that is just going to be fun to pull apart! just go here and watch the trailer. Your skin with be buzzing in seconds.
Kamehameha!
Happying viewing!
