Frieza was amazing.

He enslaved races and made them eliminate other species on planets so he could sell them off. He killed anyone that rebelled.

He was just an arrogant, super powerful evil tyrant *******.

DBZ should of ended when Goku killed Frieza.

Well I mean, DragonBall was supposed to be a parody on Martial Arts manga in general. It was supposed to be cute and funny, as per Akira's previous success of Dr. Slump.

It ended up in the end being the very image of it. The irony.

If we're talking about the anime, yeah. You know how they like to stretch out moments in time to make it seem like it lasts forever. In the manga, it probably took less than a minute.

Hell, the "5 minute" fight between Frieza and Goku took... what? How many episodes?

Edit: Yuu Yuu Hakusho wasn't supposed to be a fighting manga either. It just somehow curved into that direction when people liked how Yuusuke was a street brawler, and it just took off.

Actually, one of the reasons why they do this is usually because the Anime is catching up to the Manga, and without the Manga as its source, the Anime can't go on. In order to solve that, they lengthen certain scenes or even add filler scenes so that the artist can progress the manga farther than where the anime is at. That's why there are also Filler Story-arcs.

This is also why nothing ever happens in one Naruto Shippuden episode, thus making it extremely boring to watch.

Raizen from YYH was awesome.

He was like Yusuke 50 years later.
YYH was too ****ing good. I love long *** animes. DBZ was fine. I don't really think it was as gret, nor bad as anyone says. I mean, it's pretty amazing, i just wish it wasn't so **** drawn out.

/looks at bleach.

One Piece is like...the king of filler.

UGH!!!!
I still haven't watched it. /shame

I knew YYH in the Philippines as "Ghost Fighter" back in 95. They also renamed all the lead characters.

Yuusuke = Eugene
Kuwabara = Alfred
Kurama = Dennis
Hiei = Vincent

LOL WTF M I RITE

Also, Genkai = Jeremiah. Apparently, they thought she was an old flamboyant male initially. Filipinos are funny.

YYH is one of the few animes where the anime is actually superior to the manga. Very little filler and the ending was better and went into more detail. It was rushed in the manga version and it wasn't really fleshed out which sucked.

I usually prefer manga, but YYH is the exception.

Well, that and the Gundam series of course.

I'm actually re-watching Gundam Wing right now.

Got the urge after I unearthed my copy of Gundam Battle Assualt 2 for Playstation. lolz.

The only Anime i watch is anything NOT Shounen Jump since imo i feel like all there stories have this "Recycled" feeling.

I'm Currently watching:
School Rumble 2nd Term(Characters are so good)
Sayonara Zetsubo Sensei (Love that shows music.)
Tengen ToppaGurren Lagaan (Like for the 30th time.)

Reading (Binge Read on Sunday, not all the time):
Mysterious Girlfirend X
Naruto (...)
Ayu Mayu (Keitaro, **** you!)
Change 123 (Like the twist on the main character)
YuYuHakusho (Yeah! Manga>Anime)
One Piece(...)
Thats it i think.....

Go to onemanga.com for manga and anime4f.com for anime.

Pro tip.

The two major things I'm reading right now are Samurai Deeper Kyo and Eyeshield 21

Everyone read Hajime No Ippo pleeeeeeze!!

Bitter Virgin at onemanga.com is also really good and perverted in a weird way. It's not perverted like "omg panties" it's perverted like "wow, she's getting *****.....again????" The story is good too.

Powerpuff girls were pretty cool but the guy who made them is making like a million shows and stopping it after like 2 years.

It goes in this order:

Dexter's Labortory
Powerpuff Girls
Samurai Jack
Home For Imaginary Friends
Drama Island

I can't believe he decided to make a fake reality show :/

After next weekend, Jigglymaster.

You forgot to mention Orion beating you in winners. :p
Falco vs Diddy Kong

thats like, diddy's worst matchup

What was I supposed to do.

He had the CP, so it was either going to be Jiggly vs MK or Diddy vs Falco. His characters countered mine. In the end I still placed higher than him, just like you did with me when I beat you in that Melee tourny.

Be better? Use another character?

btw Tails is cute LOL.
If Tails was in this game I would have mained him.


Just Imagine, Tails would have Sonic's B down and Tails could follow up with a b air which would be him spinning his tails behind him and it would be like G&W's b air. His B up would be Similar to ROB's. He'd have Samus's Charge Shot, Ring Toss for Foward B, same u air, nair, and dsmash as sonic. His f-smash he would use his tails i'm not sure exaclty. His U smash would have a metal robotic punching glove go strait up would act like Olimar's Pikmin throw up(this move is in Sonic Battle). His jabs would be like Diddy kongs 3rd part of the tail attack. He'd punch with his tilts and would have Sonic's d tilt. He'd have all of Sonic's Throws also, but for his U throw instead of using his spikes he would do what Bowser does and would spin his tails above him just like bowser spins his shell.
