There are regular butterflies in the background here People in the anime have been shown eating Magikarp before The newer games have food dishes that are probably based on regular animals The anime has probably shown animals before

I like some of them. The iconic tracks are all good, but when you're actually watching the anime the soundtrack is playing like 99% of the time and there's a lot of crap in there.

No. The Death Note cannot be used to order assassinations. Again, if this were not the case, then the story could've been resolved in no time at all. Whether the cause of the individual's death is either a suicide or accident, if the death leads to the death of more than the intended, the...

No, none of that will work. You CANNOT kill someone with the Death Note if you don't know their name. You also can't do conditionals like "if X, then do Y." If it were this easy then there'd be no story. There are a few exceptions to this -- loopholes, if you will. The most common example...

He can't use the Death Note like that, unless he also writes L name's down. The notebook will only kill the person whose name is written down, and if the conditions of death written affect the lives of others, the cause of death will default to a heart attack.

Reuenthal was a prideful fool and by refusing to compromise on his pride and formally apologize and/or appeal to Reinhard, meek and impotent as that may have been, he gave Lang and Oberstein exactly what they wanted. There is a chance he would have been killed had he done what Oberstein wanted...

Not in the anime It's probably something I could tolerate if the premise we're working with is "you've seen other non-kiddy anime before DB"

The Pokemon anime ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ The manga's biggest strength is its fight choreography, and most of the Z anime's fights are not consistently good until the late Cell and Boo arcs (and even then there are some stiff fights here and there). There were always some exceptions, but that fact, coupled...

Legend. RIP.

Videl is probably the weakest person we see flying

The discrepancy is actually so large that even when Ginyu is in Goku’s body, he notes that he can fly faster than in his own body even though he can only output a power level of 23k tops. It’s kinda silly. I don’t think Toriyama really thought it through.

Dr. Gero. His baseline strength should've been a little higher and his ability to absorb ki should've been taken advantage of better. A storyline could've been written around the main characters relearning how to fight without a reliance on ki blasts (I read somewhere that this was actually the...

A person's strength and speed isn't automatically proportional with another person's strength and speed, it's just that most of the time it works out that way. We're shown examples like Burter being faster than his peers or Goku without Kaioken being faster than Ginyu. It's a weird assumption to...

American secondaries are better off thinking he's Superman, because they're not actually gonna check subbed DB/Z or the manga once you tell them he's not; they're just gonna watch DBS and/or the DBS movies and go "ah, so this was the original intent," arriving at an even worse misconception than...

It's kind of a regression but regression isn't always indicative of inconsistent writing. Characters can regress. I just think it's a little boring that he learns the same lesson about fighting for others twice.
