Talk:Dragon Ball Z/Archive 1

message: Certain Dragon Ball Z movies happen in the Dragon Ball Z universe. Mostly I am referring to the character list, because at the moment I have (perhaps wrongly) added a few characters which only feature in the movies.. Should they not be listed here? I do plan to add a link to the movies. Perhaps the characters can be offloaded to those pages after they are done? Bah! Opinions please.

In my opinion, characters from the movies should only be listed on a new page for the movies. They do not take part in the manga and are not, strictly speaking, creations of Toriyama Akira - therefore IMHO they're not really DBZ characters. Yeah, offload the non-canon movie characters to some new page.

replies: text: Only the two TV character specials (Trunks & Bardock) are in the canon of the series officially. Some fans consider Dead Zone (DBZ Movie 1) to be in canon because it's necessary backstory to the Garlick Jr. Saga-- but there are still some minor logical gaps. (Most of the other movies have major logical gaps-- like characters together when one of them should be dead, etc.) To be honest, I have no idea what movie you are talking about-- there are only 13 DBZ movies plus the two specials and that doesn't sound like any of them.

text: This does bear an edit to the main article explaining the difference between the series and the movies. Also, there is a "14th" movie (actually released in two parts) which is even less canon and, amazingly, released by Bandai originally as a very bad video game: "Side Story: The Plan to Eradicate the Saiyans".  has the info. There are currently no plans to release that "movie" in the US (the game didn't make it here either), but who knows how desperate Funimation will get once they run out of Dragon Ball next year. (They've already run out of new episodes for TV.) JRP 05:18, 5 Jul 2004 (UTC)

message: "The main character of Dragonball Z, Goku, is also related to the DC Comic hero, Superman, by many. Their history of their home planet being destroyed and them being sent to a far away planet as the last of their kind, their similarities in abilities and powers, and much more. But even though their similarity is usually not argued apon, many do argue of who is more powerful between the two. It has even been talked about in Wizard issue #133 in which they state that Goku would beat the original Pre-Crisis Superman(said to be the most powerful Superman other than Superman Prime) after going only to Super Saiyan 1 level. However there were several inaccuracies in this artical, which makes it quite clear the Wizard team aren't very informed about Dragonball. These include the belief that Goku could survive unaided in space.(Which is not true.)" 
This particular paragraph seems of a low quality, and possibly a low relevence. I think it needs to be one sentence, like "Goku is often compared to the DC Comic hero Superman, since they share similar backgrounds, abilities and status." Bihal 02:46, 9 August 2005 (UTC)

message: :"For example, during the Freeza Saga there is a flashback showing that Vegeta, Radditz and Nappa were already aware that Freeza destroyed their home planet long before the events in DBZ took place even though the series showed that Vegeta was not aware until Dodoria told him on Planet Namek."
Are you SURE the flashback 'shows they were aware of it' ? The only flashbacks I remember show them viewing the planet's destruction, but not actually seeing Freezer do it.
And I on my hand think the latter comment is incorrect.  The television show shows Vegeta, Nappa and Radditz, after being humiliated by Furiza, discussing the possibility of Furiza being responsible for the destruction.  Vegeta claims he already knew a long time and says he doesn't mind, the only thing that matters to him is beating Furiza and becoming the most powerful one.
When Dodoria tells Vegeta on Namek, Vegeta laughs at him in the show, and says he already knew.Evilbu 20:51, 10 February 2006 (UTC)

which i believe is the same person, do not revert all my edits like that without giving an explanation. If you dont agree with my edits then why dont you post your objections.
Especially DO NOT revert all the work I have spent couple hours doing in Babidi Saga.
Its obviously you do not agree with the episode listing changes I did, but i have asked for objection, see above. Provide the objection otherwise dont revert. 
I also believe this is personal since you are reverting all changes i did to this articles.
For onlookers you can see our reverts in all saga articles and List of Dragon Ball Episodes.
As of now i reverted all this persons reverts.
Explain yourself and provide your objection in an open discussion. Thank You Tutmosis 21:37, 15 February 2006 (UTC)

replies: text:  I have reverted all your reverts (2nd time) now, until you provide some sources. Also when you get your sources DO NOT revert my work especially like i pointed out in Babidi Saga. You want to change the episodes lists, fine, give me sources then edit the pages and change only the episodes lists. You dont agree with additional changes I've made then please be kind to point out what Wikipedia rule i've broken. Tutmosis 03:05, 16 February 2006 (UTC)

text:  I have done some background check and 291 is the number of episodes apperently in Japan when 276 in the States. Since this is english wikipedia you can add the Japanese listings but do Not delete the english episodes lists since this is afterall the enlish wikipedia. You feel so strongly about the japanese lists then you can add it to coexist with the english one to provide a broader range of information. Tutmosis 03:12, 16 February 2006 (UTC)

How come everything that was there was removed?
I think the newer version of the article removes a lot about the level of the original censorship.
It was because the article began to ramble on a bit, we don't really need to know exactly what was edited (There's already plenty of websites for that) just that it was censored. CurlyJ 08:04, 15 April 2006 (UTC)
