Final Form Cooler >>>>>>>>>> Golden Frieza.

Just spittin' fact here.
You ain't wrong but I've actually warmed up to Golden Frieza's design.

Probably doesn't hurt that Frieza was much more badass with the form in the ToP arc compared to Resurrection F...which, admittedly, aged like milk and honestly isn't that great of a movie. And the less said about the anime arc adaptation, the better.

Yeah, like I said in the post above, the form did have some cool stuff in the ToP arc, but it's first showin left a bad impression, and the design is....OK?

It's not bad, but Final Cooler is just so much more...ahem, badass, yeah.

Shoutouts to Vegeta for getting Super Saiyan Blue off screen because reasons that they explain poorlt.
God damn was Vegeta handled so poorly in that movie.

Not only was an explanation for how he achieved SSB completely glossed over, he was robbed of a W that would've made perfect thematic sense considering his history with Frieza only for Goku to save the day yet again.

Isn't Vegeta whole character in Super (and some might say DBZ too) is him getting robbed to make Goku look cooler/better tho?

The top comment of the scene where Goku kills Frieza sums up Vegeta's entire character

Newcomer Thread's back in funny 4chan land, this time, it's a theory that because there's no documentation online showing they've hired VAs for crowd chants from Europe, Pokemon nor Sonic can happen.

Thoughts?

This doesn't affect Eevee since its name is either Eevee or something very, very, very close to it in every language and as a result, it has the same VA worldwide.

hehehehehehe

So here is something I keep reading online. and I am confused. Many people constantly say "X cannot voice act said character because that is not their race." Saw it with Api, but the newest example is a character from Guilty Gear.

why?

I like samurai jack and his voice actor is perfect. Dude is not Asian though.

Seems racist to me to type cast voice actors like that.

I'm of two minds about it. On one hand there are plenty of good examples of VAs doing characters not of their race (Samurai Jack is a great example, but also Samuel L Jackson as Gin Rummy in Boondocks.) but at the same time I feel like, at least in some cases, it's more appropriate for the VA to match the character. Apu drew ire because it's a white man doing a very stereotypical indian accent whilst playing a stereotypical indian character. There's nothing inherently offensive about Apu imo; he's portrayed very positively. But I do think a lot of his stereotypes and whatnot would be more appropriate with an actual indian person voicing him.

Ohohoho! I can't disagree, that's another reason why I want to see Cooler in the next movie as ideally he'll use his final form to show up his brother's.
Just watch as canon Cooler receives an equally ridiculous and lazy new transformation instead of the form that everyone wants to see.
