Maybe that's what it is. The show didn't really clarify. -

Umm, lots of people have called past scientific achievements "breaking the law of reality, playing god" etc... -
a mini-essay on how gay Naruto is **spoilers**
ben0119 replied to mochi's topic in Toonami & [adult swim]
Nami has used her body and her feminine wiles against men to trick them. This happened a lot early on. Not sure if I can recall her actually showing attraction to a guy or not. What do you mean thinking of her mother? I personally think she is just impressed with and complimenting those women, or, like the thing you said about getting caught up in the situation. -

Wasn't sure if that was Gon or not, heh. Not really sure Goku has any set goal. He cares about and protects the people he loves, and likes to fight and get stronger. That is a retcon though, given past moments. Though I think Oda wouldn't even have said that if people didn't keep bugging him about why isn't Luffy hooking up with anybody. I thought asexual meant you didn't have any sexual or romantic attractions to anyone. Pace? I don't see it as coming off as lesbian myself. I think that's what people want to see. -
Dragon Ball Super Episode 68 Discussion

Well base Goku would've been very strong at that point even without Super. Though how seriously was Goku taking that fight? He did say one of the hits hurt him, and he thought Uub had enough potential to be worth training. But yeah probably hard for it to be canon? Has Toei or Toriyama said anything about it? It's kind of a major thing you would think. Why didn't they just have Super take place after this time skip instead of before? -

They could always just live on opposite sides of the planet from each other. But if not, this has the makings of a great sitcom! -

I was wondering what you were talking about. I have no idea why anyone would care, but Mochi does apparently. -

ben0119 replied to Meilag32's topic in Episode Discussion Archive
That was because that was how powerful Uub was supposedly. That's why Goku was so excited to fight him! He is the reincarnation of Buu, after all, and as far as I know, the only reincarnated character in all of Dragon Ball, so that has to count for something. But yeah plugging Super into the middle of that time skip is a bit of a tall order. GT was never canon... -

They should have just had Trunks kill him. Or any of the other times Zamasu/Black had death fake-outs. It's not like they wrote themselves into a corner here. There was literally no reason to end it like this! Also, destroying the whole universe seems like overkill just to destroy Zamasu. Then, they leave because Zeno is about to destroy the universe, but come back to... the nothing? What? -

Well there are other ways to watch it besides TV. If you did see it and just forgot though that's fair enough. Yeah Vegeta has never met her before. Hopefully Goku remembers her, heh. -

But you're not exactly an unbiased source. Plus there's the whole cartoonish and exaggerated aspect of One Piece in general. But if Oda does decide to make Nami lesbian or bi, at least it wouldn't come off as a retcon. Sanji would probably commit suicide if she's full lez though, lmao. Unless, god forbid, he has some character development and grows up. -

In the recent episode on Toonami, Naruto seems to have accepted that Sakura isn't into him and won't ever be, and has moved on. So, Naruto matured, shockingly enough? But, still obsessed with Sasuke lmao. But yeah, Sasuke is the one with all the fangirls, and he doesn't seem too interested in them back, either. I'm sure it's supposed to be "Sasuke is so cool, he doesn't even care that all these girls like him" or "Sasuke is still focused on revenge because the Uchiha massacre was an inside job for some reason" etc, but that's not necessarily how it comes off. >_>; -

Stuff like that and the whole fan base makes me want to avoid Stephen Universe like the plague. That and the show doesn't sound appealing or interesting to me in the least. -

Yes, exactly. Sometimes people have other things going on in their lives, possibly more pressing matters. Which characters were you talking about there? Yeah, true. I do think there should have been more Naruto and Hinata moments, though, and at least more interaction. But it's not an unfounded concept. Yup agree 100%. -

You've never heard of straight women complimenting each other on looks, outfits, etc? Calling each other, actresses, etc, pretty? They hug, etc. Straight guys can't get away with that so easily without having to worry about "no homo," thanks to pervasive and persistent homophobia. -

Is that why he makes Chichi such a bitch? She's practically a parody of the cliched angry wife character. And if I recall correctly Chichi had not appeared since the original saga of Dragon Ball when she showed up to marry Goku. But yeah the retcons, or rather, stuff he's said in interviews, because I'm not even sure if we can count that as retcon with it not being in the actual series, I don't take seriously. Yeah definitely trying to go the One Piece way too. Wow... that's... that's just ridiculous. I mean, yeah, things could have happened in the intervening years, but come on! Also Hinata is just plain barely in the series altogether, which is a shame. -
Not sure what kind of crack moderating team elfie expected on a fucking fan forum. Is it too much to ask people to just act like adults? And if you see someone acting like a jackass, simply pay them no mind? Not to mention, getting triggered by Zeni of all people. Really?

I would make an argument for Usopp and Zoro who both have girls from their past that they're attached to. I really don't take that asexual claim seriously. -

"It's that nice girl that talked to me" was pretty hilarious reaction when he saw Uraraka again that time. NEEERRRRRRD! That could be. Vague Bleach spoiler - I wouldn't agree to the last part. You can see plenty of times where Goku has done things to protect people he cares for, and it's shown that he does care for others. It's true he's done some oblivious kinda jerky things before but this idea that Goku didn't fight to help others but just wanted to fight strong guys is some major bullshit that Toriyama has floated. He fought the Red Ribbon Army to stop them from all the pain they were causing and vowed to defeat and finish them off to help a friend. During this saga, the first time the Dragon Balls were used to bring back someone from the dead, was Goku doing it to help a friend. He fought King Piccolo to save the world, and to avenge his best friend Krillin. When Raditz showed up, Goku tried to convince him to leave peacefully at first. He turned Super Saiyan as an emotional reaction to seeing his best friend killed (again!) He sacrificed himself to save everyone from Cell. Then of course there's the countless times he asks to move fights to isolated locations free of innocent bystanders. So yeah, Toriyama is full of shit. -

That sounds like some more bullshit retcon nonsense by Toriyama. And how does this explain Vegeta? Or how does this carry over to mixed Saiyans? From what I have noticed, Natsu doesn't come off as not interested in women to me. I mean, there's the whole Lisanna thing. Yeah trying to claim Luffy as asexual is retcon bullshit too. There were those moments you mentioned. And I agree with you that he's probably just too occupied with his pirate adventures. Also I don't think it should matter or that we need reasons for why characters are single and not seeking significant others etc. If it's not important to the story or not what the story is about, who cares? I think we actually don't even know the sexuality of a lot of characters in Bleach, because it never comes up. I guess we have to lay the blame at shippers for obsessing with this. Maybe if Togashi had any of his characters be gay, Kishimoto would have nicked that too lmao. Are you actually serious? I know a few spoilers but I haven't seen beyond what Toonami has shown. Are there seriously no more Naruto x Hinata moments?! Since I know what happens at the end I figured there must be a lot more developments than I've seen so far! Ridiculous if true!
