sometimes stories present a character and want you to think they're a good guy with asshole tendencies when really they're an asshole with good guy tendencies

go ahead and ignore the tags they don't say anything important

#this is mainly about hercule/mr satan from dragon ball z #the guy who takes credit for beating cell and befriends buu despite trying to kill him the whole time #and he does help save the world from kid buu but he does so under false pretenses #he may be strong among normal people but he's also a liar and a con. i don't hate him for being weak and overconfident-#i hate him for being a liar and a coward #this also somewhat applies to bulma (at least in dbzk (i don't remember her being like this in the manga))#because she scolds gohan like he's an adult when he's like 5 #wonders if she should have gotten with goku when she met him when he was like 11 (she did this in the manga too though)#and attempts to abandon piccolo on namek when he'd been on their side since raditz landed #i also just don't like her as a character because she and chi-chi are misogynistic caricatures #the only decent female character that comes to mind is videl and she hasn't shown up yet in the anime (i've only read the manga)#android 18 doesn't count because she barely has a personality in the manga other than she's fashion conscious and likes krillin #fire.txt
