#buu is just. there

[bakarrot]

still so pissed off over how they fucked over gas. like, they set up parallels between him and goku - even outright said it in the text that elec is a lot like canon raditz in that he only wanted his younger sibling around to act as a meat shield to protect himself, and that he’d only get tossed aside once he outlived his usefulness - yet they still fucking disintegrated his ass anyway!! he’s has almost the exact same set up as tien, but instead of getting a chance to break away from someone who used him his entire life, he dies in despair after getting abandoned by the one person he trusted. ok.

[upgradewater]

i love u, fat buu

Tien in dragonball super (canon)

[chronic-shinposter]

shoodles in progress, i plan to finish these

remaking some old shin art i did in 2018 (under cut) (also one of them is from a screenshot in dbz) (also don't ask me why i'm randomly deciding to do halloween art in august)

this art is so fucking old yall

[buubonita]

Oughhhhhhhhhh Cream...

Cross being the only one able to see Dream as the broken and imperfect being that he is and decide to love him even more for it is OH MY GOD to me. But it was a really slow process. I think Cross had a little crush on Dream before they were friends, as an adverse effect of his aura but the experiences that push them closer to each other.

One of my long standing headcanons (and it might be super common) is that Geets never assumes he's welcome to return after a genuine failure, not only as a habit from being in the Freeza Force but also just an artifact of shame and pride's relationship, which feels normal enough.

But then, every once in a while, I think about how at the end of the series Vegeta not only assumed he wouldn't be included in his wish, but also actively removed himself from being brought back to life because of what he did, knowing that the punishment he faced was to have his mind and body and memories destroyed, forever. The man introduced to the series as a villainous master of survival seeking immortality -- who's third wish for that exact thing from this exact dragon ten years prior was undercut by Guru's death, resulting in his own -- saying No I Deserve to Face Judgement I Have No Third Wish.

God I fucking love Vegeta. He didn't know Bulma brought his victims back so he was like 'no we have to make sure the people I hurt are okay too, idc if I don't count'

And for the emotional whiplash, my beloved, Goku's reaction to Vegeta saying 'no no i deserve to stay dead' is 'huh i guess you're right!'

aklsjdjasj i love this orange cat too, your honor

Bonus(es) from this end bit, because the Buu saga is predictably my favorite saga:

The Genuine Shock, the 'Good for you!,' the Porunga going 'Nah man I've met Beerus my definitions of good and evil is wildly different from your little baby earth dragon'

everyone in this panel being '!!!' except 18 who faced god and walked backward into hell to say "you're goddamn right my child is unharmed"

She said stay in your lane, fate

Bulma being so happy to hear her husband's voice again, probably assuming she wouldn't for at least half a year (and probably not knowing that it might be too late for Geets by then)

Vegeta's warrior crush on Piccolo finally being mutual

Goku's little concentration face

Vegeta being reminded that nobody on Earth knows his credentials

Vegeta volunteering to be a meatshield because nobody can tank like Geets can (shout out to Krillin being impressed by it back in the day)

Vegeta volunteering to die, again, if it means keeping his home and his family (and his friends) safe.

Porunga being the coolest dragon with places to go and people to see, he does not have all day

Everyone cheering on the boys. Bulma being very ladylike in her super short dress, as always.

Dende voluntarily healing Vegeta for the first time, and Vegeta accepting help with no ulterior motive.

Vegeta backing down from executing a threat he was personally harmed by instead of just doing it like he did with the Ginyu Force.

Goku being so full of love for everyone all the time even when they've done a lot of harm

Everyone being so full of love

Bulma clinging to Vegeta when Buu turns the corner

Trunks (Eight Years Old) being 100% Ready to Rock Buu's Shit

Marron not being totally sure wtf is going on

Vegeta still not on board with the whole 'Laugh it Off' thing Goku and his friends do with existential threats, But Whatever

God I love this series so much lkjada

VEGETA & GOKU in DRAGON BALL Z #215 — THE LONG AWAITED FIGHT

[nahare-shin]

I’d like to thank the Buu saga for having some of the funniest shots I’ve ever seen in my life.

Roevember Day 12: Free Day (Crossover)

"Ka..."

"...me..."

"...ha..."

"...me..."

"...HAAAAAAA!!!!"

(I've been coping with [gestures at fucking everything] by having Dragon Ball Z Kai running almost constantly on the second monitor, so for lack of a better idea for the free day, Goku is my savior. thank you, goku.)

[cheerclaw]

Things that are canon in Dragon Ball Z Abridged but NOT in actual Dragon Ball Z (Part 4)

~ Buu Saga Addition ~

Videl’s mom died from cancer

Sharpner is either gay or just incredibly flamboyant.

Vegeta sees the Capsule Corp interns as slaves. It’s kinda insinuated that Bulma sees them as slaves too, but uses “interns” as a cover up.

Vegeta admits he was hearing Goku’s voice in his head after his death, similar to Ghost Nappa on Namek after Nappa’s death. Does this mean Vegeta was being haunted by Goku’s “ghost” at some point during the 7 year time skip as well?

Krillin and Android 18 named their daughter Marron after 18’s grandmother.

18 is aware of Krillin’s ex girlfriend Maron and her and Krillin thought it be funny to mess with people regarding their daughter’s name and making their friends think 18 doesn’t know.

Kibito is racist towards mortals.

"Morty" is slur deities use against mortals.

Krillin and Vegeta have become friends and have movie nights together.

Not tipping or returning your shopping cart counts as a bit of evil that can led to you being control by Babibi’s magic.

A week before the Word Martial Arts Tournament, Krillin hosted a barbecue party. Vegeta attended and brought potato salad. This info was what made Goku realize that Vegeta is “truly lost” and pure evil at heart after becoming Majin Vegeta.

Vegeta attends PTA meetings.

Vegeta now refers to Krillin by his name and not “the bald monk” or any other insulting nickname (and he hates himself for it). This is most likely Vegeta’s way of showing he respects someone, by calling someone by their name and not an insult.

After hugging is son for the first time, Vegeta is now 100% convinced that he’s a better dad than Goku.

“Kaka-Tot”

Vegeta finally sees Goku as his “best buddy”

From the alternate take: The narrator is aware that he was gone for so long and only came back to remind us that Vegeta is dead (even though we literally just saw it happen XD )

@bloobluebloo replied to your post “@aspen-of-the-gentry replied to your post “Another...”:

The problem is that Nintendo didn't really think of any of this when they created the Gerudo apart from lifting the most basic of orientalist stereotypes when it comes to the harem in designing them as eyecandy. So, to be honest, I think its perfectly acceptable and encouraged to make hcs that step out of canon when its initial representation is steeped in racism, misogyny and transphobia tbh

​TRUE. It's pretty embarrassing that the thought process that went into them was so shallow that they didn't even consider all the implications. It's not the '90s anymore... do better!

I do feel like I'm losing my marbles a wee bit when people act like their interpretations are canon though. As if I don't have to memorize an entirely new set of rules and information every time I engage with a fanwork that has its own interpretation of the gerudo that mismatches canon by enough-- which isn't a huge ask of a reader/viewer, but it adds up over time precisely because so many people want to fix the gerudo. Like, it's NOT obvious!! You (as in fanartists in question) made "that" (whatever "it" is) up independently of the canon and you have to keep talking/creating if you want me to have the slightest idea what you're on about and think it worthy of accepting!! The "fandom fixer-upper" pattern of flawed canon things having their main appeal being that they must be completely rebuilt by randoms because they have a nugget of coolness under the trash makes me dissolve into slime. BUT I DIGRESS...

It IS perfectly acceptable and encourage-able. The canon is racist, misogynist, and transphobic to a cringe degree, and it can be rather dubious if one enjoys leaning into all that by too much. I like seeing what people come up with to try and do the gerudo justice and make them more than just an uncomfortable orientalistic fantasy. Because they could be! I want them to be. If anything, people don't talk enough about how they want to change the gerudo. Goodness knows I'm trying in my own little corner to be more bold with them.

Wish that Nintendo cared enough to do that work for us so we could all get on the same page.
