>literally goku's BROTHER
He was kind of a dick and no one had any attachment to him. Why waste a wish on him?

>vegeta's best friend
More like underling. Also, Vegeta's kinda the one who killed Nappa himself.

Goku doesn't want it to be awkward for Piccolo

>vegeta's best friend
Ehhh...

The real question is why they didn’t revive the Namekians that Vegeta slaughtered? That was pretty fucked up.

This really makes you think?

Because besides from Nail, Dende and Guru none of the Namekians mattered.

>vegeta's best friend
lmao

I think the old dragon balls had a limit of how many people they could revive. Its not until later when the dragon balls where upgraded that they could make more powerful wishes. Also a limit to how long they can revive someone after theyve died but I'm not sure about this last one.

Oh shit I forgot that those namekian's never were revived because they only wished for those who died at the hands of freeza's forces.

Araki probably forgot about them until recently, he forgot about tails so its not hard to believe he'd forget about Raditz and nappa, though since the movie showed he's remembered hey exist, it'd be interesting if in the next movie/anime/manga-arc he told Toyotaro/Toei to incorporate one, or the both of them, I'd love to see Goku talk to Raditz about his past now that he can't hurt fucking anyone, or Vegeta talk to Nappa and maybe even apologize for being an ass since Toyotaro is having Vegeta go through a redemption arc for his faggotry in the past.

you gonna bring up the same points like in the last thread?

I'm pretty sure those two have been reincarnated at this point. Freeza was an exception because of how salty he was.

>Forgot
This just pisses me off that we can just accept shit like this. How the fuck can you just fucking forget things about a single story youve been writing for 20 years.

Its the same shit with Araki in jojo, except he does it in the middle of the part. Is there something wrong with shounen authors brains or something?

HOW THE FUCK DO YOU FORGET SHIT LIKE TAILS? YOUR SERIES IS HUGE AND PICTURES ARE EVERYWHERE MY GOD.

Raditz and Nappa have never been canonically reincarnated.
Its not just shounen, it happens in almost every genr, look at Berserk, I don't know why but author's who write really compelling stories will just fucking forget parts of their plot, they need to start plastering sticky notes all over their office or fucking something

genre*

The afterlife in Dragon Ball has never been consistent. The Buu arc alone gives at least 3 different explanations.

Its weird man like why the fuck are mangaka even given assistants in the first place if shit like this can happen?

If your a author with 6 assistants do none of you give enough of a shit about the damn thing to notice writing inconsistancies?

Its so damn ridiculous and inexcusable, i have to wonder if most of them are just drawing for the checks

No, there's always been a consistent afterlife in DB
>Hell, where Goku fell.
>Heaven, where Dabura was sent after being eaten.
>The different Kai worlds, where Goku and the Z-Fighters trained.
There are sub worlds like The Demon realm where Dabura is from but besides from that nothing has ever changed.

He's still rocking his saiyajin slave bitch uniform and MURDERED the last known member of his own race Nappa. The saiyajin noble who helped raise and train him from the moment he was released from his birthing chamber.

His fucktarding on about his race is nonsense.
If he really gave a shit he'd have left earth after goku killed frieza to raise an army of the saiyajin remnants like he was want to do in the first goddamned arc and went to war against what was left of the frieza/cold empire.

Nope. Wearing his bitch slave uniform and bawwing about KAKKAROTOOO and his princely pride is all his love of his people amounts too.

But that's okay. He wants to save those pieces of shit from U6 that fucking no one likes. That really redeems him.

because they wouldn't offer much to the plot at the time
After Freeza, you immediately jumped to Androids, which means no Dragon Balls for quite some time
They would have to play major catch up just to be even remotely considered worth drawing, if the elite Saiyan can't do it, why should Nappa? Not to mention the children already having to share screentime.

Nappa is boring and wouldn't serve the plot

Raditz... unused potential but, hey at least some people stay dead in this show

I just realized I typed Araki and not Akira when typing this up, fucking goddammit.

>sometimes it's good guys go to heaven and bad guys go to hell
>sometimes there's only one afterlife world and bad guys are reincarnated
>sometimes hell is a consistent place that's filled with demons
>sometimes hell is personalized for everyone in there

>sometimes a person's soul is a ghost-like thing that's completely different than their body
>sometimes when a person is brought back to life their body is in the state it is when they died
>sometimes when a person is brought back to life their body is completely healed
And that's just off the top of my head.

Vegeta was one of Freeza's forces

Raditz was a fucking complete dick and "true Saiyan" to the core and Nappa wasn't just a dickish "true Saiyan" but a retard who Vegeta killed for being a retard.

toriyama shoulda kept vegetas look from Buu arc or just had him always wear casual clothes like BADMAN

>sometimes there's only one afterlife world and bad guys are reincarnated
There has never been only one afterlife
>sometimes hell is a consistent place that's filled with demons
Two non-canon Demon guardians =/= filled with demons, and if you're talking about the realm kid Goku had to close that wasn't hell, that was where Dabura is from
>sometimes hell is personalized for everyone in there
That was a retared retcon from RoF, anything after the end of Z isn't canon.
>sometimes a person's soul is the same as there body
Movie and in between arc filler
>sometimes a person's soul is a ghost-like thing that's completely different than their body
Only for those not worthy, if they were a great hero/martial artist then they get to keep their body

Gonna do these two at the same time
>sometimes when a person is brought back to life their body is in the state it is when they died
>sometimes when a person is brought back to life their body is completely healed.
A Person is always brought back completely healed, what you're thinking of is they are only ever brought back to the place they died/where their corpse is, if they have a corpse.

Technically you could say that but remember he wasn't actually part of his forces at that point, especially after killing kui and dodoria.

>He was kind of a dick and no one had any attachment to him
Freiza is 100x worse yet Goku is okay with him coming back to life

Who? *raughs*

Super isn't canon.

Fucking hate that Toriyama dropped Vegeta's eventual adjustment to Earth life portrayed through his clothing.

He was okay with Kid Buu being reincarnated

Reincarnation does not equate to direct revival, please don't speedread user.

>im talking about dragon ball z
Z is over
official material demands Nappa to stay coward to where he refuses to try SS1
Raditz is a jobber

RoF Vegeta would look amazing in old Yamamuro's style

Yeah, but he's fine with the thing who killed his wife, both his son, his planet and everyone else getting a second chance.
And if that doesn't convince you, he forgave Vegeta who has probably killed billions more than Raditz

>Araki forgetting causes everyone to forget
w...woah....

First, this wasn't about Raditz, it was about Frieza
Second, it took Vegeta 10 years to achieve redemption.
Third, he only wanted to give Buu a second chance because it was born as mindless beast who was forced to slaughter from his very conception, he wanted it to reincarnate so it could live a proper life, one not filled with endless death.

Please, don't bring the shitposting to the comfy thread, its the first one that isn't dead in minutes in days.
We already have a shitposting thread up, where I keep my retardation, don't ruin this one user.

would be fun to see Raditz or Nappa try and be dicks and just get shut down Trunks and Goten

They literally were too manly. Only betas are allowed in new DB.

>Raditz and Nappa end up training with Goten and Trunks to learn Super Saiyan, when they finally achieve it they want to try it out on Trunks and Goten but the kids fuse and go SS3 devastating Nappa and Raditz, but also making them want to train harder.
Sounds like some based in between arc SoL filler, now I want to see that user.

>That was a retared retcon from RoF, anything after the end of Z isn't canon
Lmfao cope

Says who? Cope harder nigger

Toriyama didn't really forget about tails. He says that something annoyed him about them, the holes. He didn't find reasonable having a hole for your tail and how that works and that's why toriyama dropped the whole ozaru thing

The only time we see the afterlife is filler in the anime, and honestly that shit was not creative in the slightest. Heaven just a field of flowers, Hell just a wasteland. I'm glad if it's being ignored moving forward with the series.

I hate he wears it all. Why is this guy still dressed in Frieza armor? It's like a slave who enjoys his chains. It's not even like that shit is useful in a fight.

Perfectly reasonable

If he wears anything less durable he'd be naked in the first ten minutes of a work out session.

he just likes it for aesthetic reasons clearly

Wouldnt that mean Nappa and Raditz were already reincarnated

Raditz is an asshole jobber because he's the little overshadowed brother of the lot.
He has no reason to come back besides revenge because fighting in the afterlife is more satisfying.

Different user but its likely
>Inb4 They reincarnated as Trunks and Goten respectivally

This is the new protector of heart! Say something nice about him

*Earth*

Every one of the fucking fighters from other universes where regular goddamned clothes.
That is fucking bullshit.

And if Vegeta wasn't naked while in his stylish as fuck blue leotard in his battles during the Buu arc then he was never going to lose clothes.

That's bullshit justification.

He did.
But the toei/shuiesha cucks want their shitty slave bitch uniform because of marketing toy raisons.

That busy ass ugly costume at the end was Toyo's design.
Toriyama doesn't have it in him to design something so needlessly complex yet misses the entire point of the costume entirely.

Jeez user, he doesn't look that much like the kid from captain planet.

It's nice of you to take over as god of earth even though you're the reincarnated form of an ancient existence that is in fact older then the multiverse and even zeno(s).

Hopefully you won't regain your ability to eat powers and slowly become corrupted and become a beyond GoD multversal threat that can tank even the Zeno's insta erase powers.

More importantly why didnt they bring 16 back. Surly they have a back up data file saved on one of bulmas computers and the schematics of the androids could be used to build another body.

why would he? they lost in battle. it'd be an insult to saiyans to bring them back after a noble end from honest combat.

you ever think about how vegeta gets insulted for his arrogance and selfish pride but goku is the one who fights for his own interest. vegeta is the one who fights for something, the pride of the saiyan race.

>always going about muh superior race
>literally has an earth mutt son
What the fuck did he mean by this?

Even if they did save a file of him it wouldn't be the same 16, it would be a copy, they should have wished for his data chip from right before Cell killed him

>admits to shitpost
>"why dragon ball threads are soo bad :("

>they lost in battle
>a giant ball of fucking fire destroying the whole planet without them being aware of what is going on
>"a battle"

user, Bulma is the smartest cunt on the earth and will be till Bra Escharlot Briefs becomes 14 and can adequately rival her mother in intellect.
But she is not a polymath that can do anything.
16's tech was unbelievably advanced and even after getting Gero's schematics, the best they could do with 16 was put him back together poorly. Most of the stuff was just black boxed and replaced with stuff they knew worked.
Repaired Capsule Corpse16 was in fact WEAKER then original recipe 16.

They quite honestly can't fix or rebuild him.

You keep the shitposting in the containment threads fool, I don't care about those sucking, if those didn't suck I wouldn't get 1/5th the entertainment from this board I do now, I care about the on topic ones sucking.

Why don't just wish him back? And i don't mean revive him, i mean wish him back reconstructed. Pretty sure shenron can do that

That's the problem with AI, if he was turned off, is what comes back on the same being, or are they just a duplication of the original AI's thought process from the ones and zeros

>the pride of the saiyan race.
He wept like a BITCH before he was sniped by frieza.
He's done this shit twice.
The man still calls himself the prince of fucking saiyajins.
He's YET to take revenge for his race and laid frieza's bitch ass to the side and personally ended the freiza army.

His pride is stupid bullshit.
And excuse to act like a bitch.

"Battle".
user, new canon outright states that his entire goddamned race sat there and watched like a pack of bitches as frieza fried them all.
While Jor-E..I mean Bardok sat there and shot some shitty kamehawave knock off and died like a bitch of bitches.

Vegeta doesn't give a fuck and even said AW MAN I CANT BE DA KING NOW LOLOLOLOL.

He doesn't give a fuck about his own people in canon. But will get pissed enough about a shitty knock off of his race that he's never met or talked too to go SSJB FABULOUS AND FIERCE CRYSTAL EDITION over it.
Not for his wife, his children, his universe or even his pride. A bunch of faggots he doesn't know. ALL WHILE WEARING THE FUCKING SLAVE UNIFORM OF THE MOTHERFUCKER WHO WIPED OUT HIS PEOPLE AND MADE HIM HIS PERSONAL BITCH/SLAVE SINCE HE WAS A CHILD WHO HE IS FIGHTING WITH AND HAVING ALL KINDS OF FUNSIE ADVENTURES WITH!!

Vegeta lost all of his cool points for this bullshit.

>Kamehawave knockoff
For fucks sake its called "Final Spirit Cannon", don't spout shit and if you're just going to speak lies at least get the names right.

They can wish the original and true ai of 16 to come back with the dragon balls too though

>Doesn't answer all the other things

I don't care about your retardation with the other user, or your ham-fisted attempts to make a superman reference, you dissed on one of the coolest attacks from the all of the original run of the show and its OVA's and I had to smack you down for it.
Yeah sounds like it could work, but it seems like they'd need Porunga or Super Shenron for it, considering regular Shenron is kind of a brainlet.

I'm not. these two posts you answered are mine. I didn't mean to sound offensive, sorry about that. About the shenron thing: yeah, dende's shenron has some bullshit rules but i don't think that even he can be that much of an idiot

And then they get space guns and go on a mass shooting spree, killing most of the cast.

Fine, I apologize for calling you the spammer.

Why him and the other e-celebs hate the manga so much? Quality aside, why hate it so much to the point of making some videos related to a fanfic manga?

Shueisha clubbers them down if they post pages from the manga. Spicdom still does manga videos every month but he doesn't show anything.

Toriyama is brilliant at drawing action, but his writing has always been a comedian doing improv that happens to fit together sometimes.

>literally goku's BROTHER
He did not know Raditz personally, who only proved to be a bastard of a Saiyan in their sole interactions. This basically means nothing.
>vegeta's best friend
Nappa wasn't his "friend," he was a subordinate. Vegeta literally throws him away when he's battered and broken, and kills him just for the hell of it. If he were revived and knew of all the bullshit Saiyans could achieve with their broken genetics, it would only bite them in the ass somewhere down the line.

Raditz was actually utilized pretty well in that Dragonball RPG attack of the saiyans. Which I am really sad never got a sequel.

Frieza is useful.

he's fine with the thing who killed his wife, both his son, his planet and everyone else getting a second chance
Are you an idiot? Do you not know what reincarnation is? That is not giving a bad person a second chance, that is recycling their soul into a completely different one.

>Which I am really sad never got a sequel.
Me too. Honestly, something that i like about the rpg dragon ball games is how they expand the story and make it have more adventure like the original dragon ball. Toriyama really should take note from those games

Why they plant saibanmen?

So ki attacks are cheating in DBZ?

>Why don't they gather the Dragon balls over and over to revive X, Y, and Z??
This is the problem with introducing these mechanics that can revive dead characters and combining them with the shounen power scaling problem. Friendly reminder that the Dragon balls are so worthless now that Bulma considered gathering them to make herself look younger when they were capable of brining all these characters died back to life. Character revival mechanics are shit 80% of the time due to poor writing like this.

From what I recall, the original armors were designed by the Saiyans and Freeza's empire made modifications to it over the years.

Is that King Chappa?

If someone proclaiming himself to be your brother suddenly appeared, smacked your friend, broke your teacher's house, kicked you in the stomach, kidnapped your kid and tried to kill you, would you really be in a hurry to revive him with magical wish-granting balls after he kicked the bucket? Blood-related or not, the man's done nothing to make you care for him.

Isnt uub from the same country? Pseudo-india

>Dragon balls are so worthless now that Bulma considered gathering them to make herself look younger when they were capable of brining all these characters died back to life
What dead characters? The only ones they care about bringing back to life are already alive.

Isn't it long as the person wants to come back and hasn't been reincarnated? Thought Goku tried to revive gohan at one point but he refused content with the life he lived.

Considering what Vegeta did to an entire planet on the way to earth it's not like they were less redeemable.

>They quite honestly can't fix or rebuild him.
If only they had some sorta McMuffin that could grant any and all wishes eh?

But I guess de aging yourself is more important.

>dragon revives humans np
>can't fucking comprehend AI that was built by one man.

If anything the person wishing would be more at fault. Humans are just biological machines. And it shouldn't be too hard for any dragon to get the meaning considering he brings back people instead of just animating brain dead corpses or zombies.

>any and all wishes
There are a slew of restrictions and rules

People in dragon ball have souls, retard. They arent just ‘machines’.

Rush? No. But if I've reached a point where even my 7 year old can beat his ass in and I know he had a shitty childhood might consider it.

And most of them retain to how long people died, how many at a time per wish, trying to kill X, or going beyond the power of the ball maker.

And who says ai doesn't have soul? Its an unexplored concept. Or we could just sidestep the whole issue and have the wish be used to bring back the boy who 16 was based on with the memories. Is it within the dragons power to make a mortal 16? Lot of ways to go about it if you aren't stuck thinking like a slack jaw.

Or maybe no one gives a shit enough to revive some facsimile of that retarded toaster

Eighter got restored along with the rest of the Earth in the Buu saga so yes, 16 can be brought back

no one likes them

>A decent Dragon Ball thread
wtf

Nappa was just tall Krillin

Cope.

Kys super spic

Toriyama forgot about them even though they're important to the story.

Raditz doesn't want to repent for his sins and will most likely join Frieza's forces to work his way up motivated by a desire to surpass Goku.

Nappa is better than the two in that he's given a chance to come back to life in FighterZ, but nobody wants to address the fact that he's angry at Vegeta for killing him after years of loyalty. As seen in the game, he's proud of being a mid-level solider since the Earth raise Saiyans have gone soft.

go reread that part in the manga, it's specifically shown that they're not revived because Vegeta killed them.

>Vegeta
>Having friends
Pick one

Nappa is explicitly written as a soldier who uses brute force to solve his problems and loyal to Vegeta. His only flaw is lack of focus.

I like Vegeta's dynamic with Nappa and Raditz more than Goku. They bring out his smart points and ruthlessness, while Goku's friends irritate him.
