Pretty sure that was Yamcha, as i recall Krillin pretty much showed up when Goku and him began training with Roshi.
Tien basically leaves the cast when Vegeta becomes part of the main posse, essentially because Vegeta is COMPLETELY unapologetic for killing Chao-tsu (sp) back when he came to Earth. So those two basically spent the entire series off training in the woods at that point and Tien only shows up to fight of Cell at one point (and does a decent job too, all things considered).
Yeah I was just summing up the humans (I think Tien is still considered one?) in terms of what they do. Basically if you're not Goku you're there to stall until he's ready to fight.
I kind of zoned out after the frieza saga (weird scheduling didn't help either), so i don't recall that fight, but watching it on youtube.. heh, remmber when that move would straight up kill him? And now he's spamming it and its just pushing Cell back...
Because it usually kills you when you do it and it really doesn't solve the problem. Also, because it's ABSOLUTELY RIDICULOUS.
Unless you're kami in someone else's body, and everyone was more powerful then that at the start of Z...
Agreed, the whole "Sealing of ancient evil" thing almost never works. Just kill the damn thing, and don't pawn it off to the next generation you inconsiderate wizards!
It worked in...
We won't really know if it worked for sure until the official epilogue, no?
Pretty sure it's over
Pretty sure it's over
Hrm, well that will be interesting to read when it happens then, I suppose.
Unfortunately a lot of shows now are just a season-long advertisement for the Light Novels/manga they're based on, unless DVD/BluRay sales are super-high. Deadman Wonderland (this one kind of sucked anyway) and Legend of Legendary Heroes (dumb name, but great show that is unfortunately no longer streaming) are pretty notorious for this.
I think that's a bit disingenuous. Companies use mega hit shows to finance smaller, risker titles and you can't do narrow appeal shows like Deadman Wonderland (which did not suck) unless they ether become break away hits (like Attack on Titan did) or you have another show to pick up the slack. The company producing Deadman had neither happen so it was dumped. You want a REAL tragic example of this happening? Look at The Big O. After the failure of IGPX to strike it with the Japanese audiences, The Big O was canned for bad DVD sales and that show ended on a cliffhanger (that oddly works as an ending, considering the source material).
all of us who were there for it would kill for that elusive season 3.
DW's studio, Manglobe, had multiple seasons of big-selling shows, mostly thanks to World God Only Knows (2010, 2011 which the same year as DW, and 2013). They also had a Hayate the Combat Butler movie that same year. They've had multiple successful shows, but DW wasn't one of them. Also I think DW ended on a cliffhanger of sorts, didn't it?
It's done well enough to go three seasons, too, that's pretty impressive. Not many get past two or so without falling to OVA status.
yeah, holy crap, I need to collect that show...for research...
I enjoyed that one quite a bit, I got interested in it back 15 years or so ago when I just happened upon a Jojo's Bizarre Adventure arcade cabinet, and then was able to get it for Dreamcast. Wanted to know more about the story, and was not disappointed.
