Kindly excuse the XXL multi-quote
Superman is also not anything like Goku's character, or at least anything different than any other DC Superhero. Superman puts the weight of the world on his shoulders, hides away his true power and is mocked for it, and is one of the most humble characters, acts as a symbol for all that's good and struggles with various moral dillemnas, constantly pro active in helping everyone. The one big parrallel I see with Goku is that both believe the world should help themselves, but will be there to help things out of their control. Well only if Goku knew about it. Superman travels the world and throughout the universe looking for those he can help. He set up a mail system, so people could contact him and he reads through all of them, or tried to since they never stop coming, but only goes for things out of people's control, because he believes it's wrong to play god. He would have brought Vegeta to justice by imprisoning him and have his equipment destroyed or used to to see if the threat was over. He's responsible. However in the Cell arc is where Goku stepped up and became responsible, but was still different than Superman.
Isn't Goku the same too? While that doesn't necessarily suggest that DB/Z is a Superman ripoff, the main protagonist here does portray similar traits. And it always amazes me as to why either fanbases' pit them against each other. Two completely different characters, two different concepts, two different universes.
Having said that, Supes will have his cape handed over to him by Goku anyday.....
Superman wouldn't have thought like Goku to give the Senzu Bean to Gohan looking long term.
Whaaaat?
Funi KAI I assume is doing the dub, and as probably known by now, I don't exactly appreciate their work on Kai.
But as I said movies never had the dbz feel to me because they never had the faulconer score, so knowing that, relatively, I might still somewhat like it.
EDIT: But knowing what I know about the plot from others etc now, I will probably dislike BoG regardless.
I haven't seen any of the Kai re-releases so I dunno. Don't they have the original voice cast? I'll feel pretty much bummed if they don't have Sabat as Vegeta when BoG gets dubbed.
BTW, I guess you'll like one aspect of BoG. The one which I loved; Goku expresses exactly the same concern in this movie which I had watching him defeat Broly, Buu, Janemba or Turles. Find it out.
Well at least you got the worst scene ever spoiled for you just now. It's a lot worse because there's vocals to go with it. That was the thing that closed my mind, why I didn't like it the first time I watched it. There were also the other reasons I mentioned, but I hated that scene, and still hate it. It wasn't necessary, and disrespected Vegeta completely. That's why I wanted to warn you on somethings, because I guarantee you won't like it on your first watch.
Sorry for that. Spoiler tagged it now.
I beg to differ though. That portrayal was very much DB-
esque and I absolutely loved it. For me, it didn't take away Vegeta's badassery one bit and I see no disrespect toward the character. Every character in DB/Z, from Goku to Shenron, have been depicted with funny/derpy expressions at some point of time
As with most of the DBZ movies, there are inconsistencies rendering them incompatable with the main saga/manga, therefore the characters & events [in Fusion Reborn] aren't "canon."
As you said, I don't care for the inconsistencies so I'd really feel that they should do a Gogeta some time down the road. BTW, Gogeta doesn't have his manga counterpart??
While I dont like GT as many know, I do like the ssj4 design and concept of only being accessible to "true" saiyans with tails. True it could have used some trademark ssj blond but it was still cool looking so I would buy ssj4 Goku at least.
Gogeta, not so much, not because hes a movie character but because I just dont like the strange outfit fusion characters wear. Vegito on the other hand is an instant buy for me.
I hear you. Even though I disliked the overall look for SSJ4, it recently rekindled my liking toward it because of SSG. Although I'm not sure how they'd texture his red fur cuz that'd look silly on a plastic figure.
Speaking of fusion characters' outfits, I'm surprised you think Gogeta has a weird one compared to Vegitto.
he did amazing and still is, but just putting that out there
