I liked the lore addition in BoG, but all of it is ruined by the ridiculous turns and motivations. I didn't know it was possible for me to hate fat buu more but DBS6 managed it. Unbelievable, the stupidest most annoying **** of the buu saga they keep and everything else they ignore or make redundant.
DB was funny, but all the fights made sense, there was drama to it, there was wisdom and depth to the fights, and they were hardcore, from the beginning straight up. I've seen NONE of that in any of the new material. DB had comedy but his new **** isn't just comedy, it's borderline a parody on the whole thing. It feels like Toriyama saw TFS and said I can do that **** too. DB, even in Z, always had comedy, but all the fights have always had a solid dramatic basis for them. Even in the early days of DB, when Goku needed to climb to the strengthening waters to help his indian friend who's dad got blatantly murdered and was left all alone. DB had depth. DBZ had depth. Tonal emphasis and all other dub differences aside, this DBS stuff doesn't even fit with either DB or DBZ to me. I liked BoG, I liked Beerus there, because I always took the 'Ill destroy the earth over pudding" as mostly a coy to just see how much fight the z fighters would put up (when he does destroy earth he just destroys some earth). But this **** like 'the pillow thing' is just ridiculous. Beerus is just becoming a TFS character. Frieza in RoF was a TFS character. I like TFS, but not as the real ****ing thing ffs.
I hope DBS manages to get to some actual dramatic layers, otherwise, especially because the movies are made obsolete because of DBS, I'm not invested in this new material at all. To me, in a way, the cell games are still the ending of what I'm a fan of in DB+DBZ. It closed it all off perfectly. Everyone fought together, the son succeeded the father and Vegeta redeemed himself helping him. THe later years with Buu had some good moments, but story wise the new content makes all of hm ignorable.
I've recently modded my Detolfs so I have 4 spare glass panels to use and I've been thinking of doing something like that.
