Prince Zarbon
I am currently an administrator here on the DBZ Wikia and I am grateful to have had this great opportunity to work alongside fellow administrators in order to ensure an accurate and reliable resource for all Dragon Ball fans. I am responsible for keeping track of the villain and antagonist articles on the wiki as well as the daily quote of the day along with numerous other additional tasks (see "More about me" section for additional information about my administrative functions). I welcome any and all questions and comments from users and I hope to be as helpful as possible.
I have the same user name on wikipedia, Zarbon. I am a resident of New York. At the time being, I am 30 years old. I am primarily fond of villains and their henchmen as their initial design, mannerism, and characteristics appeal to me most of all.
My favorite characters consist entirely of villains and victims. Zarbon is my ultimate favorite character of all time from Dragonball Z, and from everything else in the universe for that matter. I do indeed have a long list of favorite characters.

Favorite DB / Z / GT Characters
Here is a listing of my most favorite characters in specific order: Zarbon 1. Zarbon (Dragonball Z) - Ultimately, my most favorite character in the entire series due to being elegant, handsome, militaristic, ruthless, brutal, having serious mannerism, dying loyally, and having an exquisite reptilian design. These qualities all play a contributing factor; The role he portrays and his development are my favorite, that of Frieza's elite Commander-General and close henchman and adviser. The fact that he suggests to eradicate the Saiyan race is a brilliant idea and adds to my love for him. My great love stems from the brutal villainy and brutally grotesque demise... the great portrayal of emotions such as fear and cowardice when on bottom but brutal and extremely wicked when on top. The character of Zarbon is the pure definition of the beauty and the beast, he is the personification of the brutish demonic monster within and the ever-elegant warrior, mysterious and deadly... due to his brutal characteristic being entombed along with his magnificent stature. He's an emotional villain with double persona and greatly layered with dastardly deeds that come back to extinguish his flame. Zarbon's beat-down of Vegeta is my favorite scene in the series, especially the repeated headbutt combination he unleashes, relentlessly annihilating Vegeta's face. The overall battle is the best to me because it doesn't allow the protagonist a chance to even fight back; it's the evil character beating on the good one the whole time straight up. Also, I prefer Zarbon's transformation by a long margin to the other transformations in the series. For one, he doesn't charge up for an long amount of time and he doesn't have a minor alteration either. I like both his forms because they make him who he is, sadistic and brutal whilst handsome and mysterious. Elegant yet deadly... he's the beauty who hides a dormant beast. He has the most vivid execution scene, extremely gruesome and satisfying... and the method of execution was displayed brilliantly. Due to my love of aliens and demonic characters, Zarbon's reptilian ancestry and dynamic blue-skin adds furthermore to his sustained personality. Not only designed beautifully and having an appealing appearance, he also perishes in a powerful manner and very brutally. I prefer characters who die in a memorable way as opposed to those who live throughout the entire series. Those who captivate the screen in a shorter amount of time do a better job for me than those who last forever, because through a suspenseful demise... they live forever, surpassing the mortal coil of the norm. Still, he's my favorite character due to affiliation, design, actual villainy, and intricate detail. ![]() Dodoria 2. Dodoria (Dragonball Z) - This is definitely my second most favorite character due to affiliation and role. Dodoria is a major character in the Namek saga due to his murder of the Nameks, chasing Gohan and Krillin... his confrontation with Vegeta... and the fact that he plays a huge role in the Bardock movie. The very fact that he easily flicked Bardock away with a single mouth blast adds to his already remarkable character. And the way he treats the situation, as if it's just a daily job, makes it all the more wonderful. I love Dodoria for his ferocity when he butchers the Namek elderly and children... and when he threatens to murder Dende. I love the way he's drawn when portraying ferocious anger and clenching his fists in a fiery rage when he finds that Muuri destroyed his scouters on purpose... and his nails sink into his skin and his own hand bleeds from his rage. The very fact that he's also an elite Commander-General and one of Frieza's top two henchmen in an army of millions means that he'd merit a great deal of loyalty for the emperor. His fear and cowardice is also well-portrayed when he reveals the secret of the destruction of planet Vegeta, and succumbs to his fate shortly afterward. Also, I love the fact that he met a grisly demise. My favorite characters... as I discussed earlier, must die in a very climactic manner, play the role of a supporting villain, and remain evil until their final breath is drawn. ![]() Cui 3. Cui (Dragonball Z) - As all other underlings of Lord Frieza, Cui is high up there in the ranks. Likely third strongest of those directly aligned with Frieza's empire, Cui is a powerful warrior who has a rivalry with Vegeta. This builds to a strong climax in the Namek saga, where Cui finally attempts to thwart Vegeta's plan once and for all. However, he waited for a long time to receive these orders from Frieza. Cui's failure to understand Vegeta's increase in might ends up being his undoing as he learns the hard way how Vegeta had truly become stronger. I love Cui; what a magnificent design and mannerism. And he's onscreen for a shorter duration of time, yet built greatly as a villain character. Of course, those aligned with Frieza are automatically my favorites, and Cui is no exception. His frantic display of emotions... his immediate fear and eventual cowardice when the tables are turned make him an exceptional character and a perfect plot device. I love how he told Vegeta that Frieza was already on Namek, which triggered the chain of events, leading to Vegeta's travel to Namek and their overall clash on Namek. Jeice 4. Jeice (Dragonball Z) - Yes, Jeice is my favorite Ginyu Tokusentai member. He's also my 4th most favorite character in the series run. Jeice's death scene was obviously my favorite of the Ginyu Force... and the role he played was slightly memorable. Of course, I loved his overall dislike towards Vegeta and the very essence of his characteristic was greatly appealing. His actions are extremely swift and his combination attacks with Burter are brilliant tactical maneuvers. His crusher ball technique is also well-made and devastating. The scene where it's deflected is very climactic. His execution scene is far too memorable, when Vegeta kicks him in the face, chops at his gut, making him choke and spit, and holds out his hand in front of Jeice's face, obliterating him in midair. That was greatly climactic and satisfying, increasing my love for Jeice. ![]() Burter 5. Burter (Dragonball Z) - Burter makes for the perfect combination partner alongside Jeice. As both bring forth a balance of skill and have a tactical advantage against opponents, Burter is the speed-induced powerhouse who was the fastest being in the universe for quite some time. As a member of the Ginyu Tokusentai, Burter is renowned for his ferocity in rendering his opponents helpless against a flurry of swift maneuvers. He first showcases this skill against Vegeta, Gohan, and Krillin by retrieving a Dragon Ball from the sky before they even have a chance to turn their heads, leaving them baffled at his extreme speed. Whilst Goku still surpasses him and notes that he is not only faster but also stronger, his take-down is a magnificent bone-cracking sequence that renders him immobilized and helpless. Vegeta, who is the definition of the unforgiving and relentless character, swiftly and ruthlessly stomps on and cracks Burter's neck, ending his life in brilliantly memorable fashion, with Burter's tongue still sticking out. Recoome 6. Recoome (Dragonball Z) - Definitely the most relentless and savage of the Ginyu squadron, Recoome portrays his brutal tactics as a warrior by pummeling Vegeta, Gohan, and Krillin to within an inch of their lives and leaving them for dead before Goku arrives and takes him down. Recoome easily has the second-best fight sequence (in my opinion)... second only to that of Zarbon's battle with Vegeta. Recoome's ruthless pile-driver that pins Vegeta into the ground and his combination of bone-breaking maneuvers are what makes him awesome: the "Recoome Kick," "Recoome Elbow," "Recoome Eraser Gun" and his magnificent-sounding "Recoome Bomber" (which is even better as "Recoome Boomba!" in Japanese version) is my favorite blast attack in the series. Of course, Recoome does unleash this attack against Gohan, who barely manages to evade the madman's chaotic onslaught... Only to be pummeled into the ground and have his neck broken by a swift kick via Recoome's awesome muscular feet. For a fighter as brilliant as Recoome, it was rather surprising to see him have a lesser exit. As he easily immobilized Krillin, left Gohan for dead, and savagely brutalized the already rejuvenated Vegeta... He is taken down by a single strike to his gut from the 100-times-gravity trained Goku. It was only inevitable that Vegeta would end his life (with a blast while he's already downed) as he took the opportunity to do the same to pretty much most of my favorite characters. But this is fine... as Recoome is added to the greatness of those who are used as plot devices to build Vegeta's pre-existing awesome story-line. Guldo 7. Guldo (Dragonball Z) - This little elite mercenary is quite awesome for having such a vivid hatred of Vegeta, which is quite understandable. As a vicious yet small warrior, he proves that big things come in little packages... Especially when that package tries to skewer Gohan and Krillin with mind tricks and body binds. Guldo uses every one of his telekinetic holds to weaken his opponents and uses these attacks to his advantage in order to incapacitate anyone who stands in his way. He is rather successful at maintaining a hold on Gohan and Krillin... As well as torturing them for a short period of time (which is rather enjoyable)... But Vegeta uses Guldo's carelessness to consider him a liability as an opportunity to strike at Guldo. Of course, he manages to hack off Guldo's head, decapitating him. This moment of impact is even better in the manga version when compared to the Anime version, although both are quite awesome. Guldo's head rolls on the ground, both cursing at Vegeta and begging for his life with an awesome showcasing of fear as Vegeta pronounces that it is those who are strong who survive and the weak who perish, greatly adding to the already brilliant ending for Guldo. Vegeta proceeds to firmly obliterate what remained of Guldo's head. What an awesome character to accomplish so much as a plot device in such a short period of time. ![]() Android 19 8. Android 19 (Dragonball Z) - Android 19 would be my favorite in the Android saga. He's also my favorite android character. 19 was a greatly successful creation as he was an energy absorbing model. He also aided Dr. Gero to alter himself, making Android 20 a reality. On the matter of 19, I felt his fight was the best thing about the entire Cell saga as most of the rest of that saga just plain bored me... I absolutely hated 17 and 18... found them to be an utter useless waste of time (and they looked boring as heck)... as well as the fact that I absolutely detested their role of malfunctioning traitors (likely my least favorite characters in the entire series run). 19's fight completely filled me with joy (especially seeing that rotten Goku getting pounded when inflicted with the virus... and 19 enjoying the deadly tight grip as he tried to suck the life out of him... the sheer brutality and pleasure made for a great fight scene; especially when Vegeta showed up and handed 19's own behind to him by shredding off his arms and decapitating him. That was Just. Plain. Awesome. Pui Pui 9. Pui Pui (Dragonball Z) - Pui Pui is by far my favorite of the entire Buu debacle due to his exquisite fighting maneuvers and capabilities. He first appears when Spopovich and Yamu return with the collected energy to revive Buu. He does quite well when told to eliminate Yamu, who attempts to escape, but is easily popped in midair by Pui Pui's nice shot. What an awesome stance Pui Pui has when blasting... And what an awesome stance he has when facing his opponents. Pui Pui was the strongest being in his quadrant of the universe, as stated by Supreme Kai... And he had lived under 10 times the gravity when compared to that of Earth's... But it was still not enough against Saiyan prince, Vegeta... Who had trained under 500 times the gravity of Earth. This comes as a surprise to the unfortunate yet awesome plot device that is Pui Pui. When attacking Vegeta in stage one of Babidi's spaceship, Pui Pui is taken down by the ruthless Saiyan prince (pretty much just like all the rest of my most favorite characters are). Pui Pui's death sequence is very well made as well, slowing down just to show his reaction as Vegeta closes in for the kill, blasting him to oblivion after placing his hands on his chest. This is very understandable as a sped-up reaction since any warrior that is caught by surprise would halt in the moment of their excruciating death. This only adds to the already-established awesomeness that is Pui Pui's character. ![]() King Cold 10. King Cold (Dragonball Z) - Ah, the lord of the planet trade organization and lord of the universe itself... in a businessman's perspective, at least. I love Lord Cold for being such a calculated emperor and ruthless pillager of civilizations for such a long period of time. As he leads countless millions of soldiers and builds an empire of ruthless space pirates, trading planets for a living, he stabilizes his hold on the North quadrant of the universe as one of the most tyrannous rulers in all existence; being all the more awesome for me. King Cold is extremely elegant and majestic in his mannerism and behavior. With the twitch of every nerve and the movement of every limb, he places great expression and brilliant detail in his exquisite stature. His flowing cape and majestic armor... His wonderful throne and his beautiful spaceship... His glass of wine! Everything about him is a definition of awesomeness. Even with his brief episodic appearance, he accomplishes more than numerous other primary players. Of course, he is left in surprise when his equally vicious son, Frieza, is halved by Saiyan future fighter Trunks... And meets his end when learning that the sword does not make the man. Trunks doesn't give Cold a chance to fully beg as he blasts him to oblivion after sending him to a mountain with a gaping hole in his side. Although his wonderful empire crumbles before him, the greatness of King Cold lives on. ![]() General Blue 11. General Blue (Dragonball) - General Blue was the absolute most disciplined and loyal in the Red Ribbon Army due to his militaristic nature and his general love for following a strict code of ethics. He was also primarily loyal out of fear; most of the members of the Red Ribbon Army knew within themselves that if they were to fail, it would be punishable by death. His execution was imminent through his failure of retrieving the Dragon Balls, which cost him his own life. He also wanted to collect the treasure from the pirate cave, for example, but for the honor of the Red Ribbon Army and not for his own selfish desire. There is a strong parallel here between this powerful General and someone such as Colonel Violet, for example, who was placed in similar circumstances and acted for the betterment of her own ends... by stealing treasure from the vault. Do I love the character of General Blue due to his brilliant enigma and charisma as a soldier, as an antagonist, and as a brave elite... the answer is yes. Do I feel military discipline and strict loyalty, old-fashioned ethics and behavior goes a long way in making for a strong character... the answer is yes. And did I love his satisfying demise at the hands of Mercenary Tao by being tongue-stabbed after executing so many soldiers himself... the answer is yes. Salza 12. Salza (Dragonball Z) - Likely the best non-canon movie universe character associated with Frieza's empire, Salza is modeled after Zarbon with a temperament and demeanor similar to his and a combination of his attitude along with that of Jeice. Salza is a very collected combatant, calm and reserved. He becomes deadly when forced to, however, against the Namekian Piccolo. He's extremely gallant when it comes to posing and equally prepared for battle as much as style and finesse. Salza also has an awesome lightsaber-sounding technique, the Salza Blade, which slices through his targets with rapid succession. This awesome leader of Cooler's armored assault squadron is taken down by Piccolo's special beam cannon after the debris and dust clears, revealing an angered Salza with an apparent advantage against the prior wounded Goku and less powerful Gohan and Krillin. However, Piccolo saves them from a grisly end when he topples Salza in the final moments of the film. What an awesome fate for the brilliant Salza. 13. Spice (Dragonball Z) 14. Angira (Dragonball Z) 15. Dr. Gero (Dragonball Z) ![]() Nappa 16. Nappa (Dragonball Z) - Out of all the Saiyans, Nappa is ultimately my most favorite due to his affiliation, demise, and the fact that he stays evil. His elimination of Chiaotzu, Tien, and Piccolo alone should merit that he's a great villain; and his brutish fighting tactics as well as his extreme rage erupting when he's pushed too far make him an excellent combatant. Nappa too was emotionally powerful because he was betrayed by Vegeta after all his loyalty and valiant efforts to take down Earth's forces. All his struggles were in vain since he was still executed for failing to eradicate all of Earth's warriors. Nappa is far too magnificent a warrior and will remain as such. 17. Dabura (Dragonball Z) ![]() Assistant Black 18. Assistant Black (Dragonball) - Staff Officer Black is also a very loyal man, that is, loyal to the army. He wanted the best for the army. The one disloyal fellow (other than renegade Colonel Violet) is actually Commander Red for betraying his entire army for the pathetic goal of becoming taller; hence he deserved to be executed for this childish gesture. The men of the army are loyal for the most part. Assistant Black's execution of Red is a very well-made scene and is rather climactic and extremely satisfying. Black is a great character in the long run, and his potential is clear; his ferocious stature and position allow him to be commandeering. He's also a very good fighter, placing great emphasis on his lethally long legs during his scuffle with Goku. ![]() Neiz 19. Neiz (Dragonball Z) - Neiz is one of Cooler's squad members; he's got some unique moves and swift techniques on par with Burter of the Ginyu force. Neiz has a very distinct style of fighting and also has an array of maneuvers; he's also got a special electrocuting attack that sends his opponents into a shock; this doesn't work against Piccolo, however, as he fries Neiz by deflecting his attack back to his own body. Neiz is met with this unfortunate and grisly end, but in a gorgeous fashion with smoking glory in midair. ![]() Doore 20. Doore (Dragonball Z) - Of course, just being affiliated with the planet trade organization is enough to increase love for Doore. He is the brute of Cooler's armored squadron. He showcases this by attempting to crush Gohan, but is halted by Piccolo, who sends a seeking blast after him, killing him in midair. Doore attempts to stop this blast but is unsuccessful to stop the blast from enveloping his body. I love all of the planet trade organization, so it's natural that Doore's lovely usage as a plot device doesn't go unnoticed on my part. 21. Mustard (Dragonball Z) 22. Nicky (Dragonball Z) 23. Sansho (Dragonball Z) 24. Salt (Dragonball Z) 25. Vinegar (Dragonball Z) 26. Ginger (Dragonball Z) 27. Spopovich (Dragonball Z) 28. Yakon (Dragonball Z) 29. Yamu (Dragonball Z) 30. General White (Dragonball) 31. Wings (Dragonball Z) 32. Misokatsun (Dragonball Z) 33. Kishime (Dragonball Z) 34. Dr. Kochin (Dragonball Z) 35. Ebifurya (Dragonball Z) 36. Kakao (Dragonball Z) 37. Amond (Dragonball Z) 38. Android 14 (Dragonball Z) 39. Kogu (Dragonball Z) 40. Bido (Dragonball Z) 41. Bujin (Dragonball Z) 42. Captain Yellow (Dragonball) 43. Drum (Dragonball) 44. Tambourine (Dragonball) 45. Cymbal (Dragonball) 46. Eis Shenron (Dragonball GT) 47. General Rilldo (Dragonball GT) 48. Major Metallitron (Dragonball) 49. Colonel Silver (Dragonball) 50. Cardinal Mutchy Mutchy (Dragonball GT) 51. Haze Shenron (Dragonball GT) 52. Ninja Murasaki (Dragonball) Raditz 53. Raditz (Dragonball Z) - I prefer Nappa to Raditz, but I do like Raditz. His character design and appearance is very basic minus his hairstyle. But I do like Raditz, and to like him isn't a small thing. The fact that he would have executed his own brother and nephew for his military upbringing isn't a small thing. I love that he's a ferocious villain to this end. His end against Piccolo's attack was enormously wonderful; the beam slicing through him and his eventual suffering and puking blood was a great contributing factor. Even in death, he refused to give credit to the protagonist scum... and was executed brilliantly as a result. 54. Dolltaki (Dragonball GT) 55. Buyon (Dragonball) 56. Dr. Myuu (Dragonball GT) 57. Dr. Raichi (Dragonball Z) 58. Daizu (Dragonball Z) 59. Paragus (Dragonball Z) 60. Captain Dark (Dragonball) 61. Rage Shenron (Dragonball GT) 62. The Dictator (Dragonball Z) 63. Commander Red (Dragonball) 64. Medamatcha (Dragonball Z) 65. Aka (Dragonball Z) 66. Ledgic (Dragonball GT) 67. Captain Ginyu (Dragonball Z) 68. Don Kee (Dragonball GT) 69. Mercenary Tao (Dragonball) 70. Garlic Junior (Dragonball Z) - The only other transformation scene I remotely enjoyed was that of Garlic Junior's... In fact, the moment he transforms and begins his extreme beating is one of the only moments I liked him onscreen. Garlic Junior's ending, however, was a great let-down to me; on both occasions. I hated that he wasn't executed, but was in turn... sealed in an empty void for eternity. 71. Android 15 (Dragonball Z) 72. Lucifer (Dragonball) 73. Ghastel (Dragonball) 74. Hoi (Dragonball Z) 75. Van Zant (Dragonball Z) 76. Smitty (Dragonball Z) 77. Maloja (Dragonball Z) 78. Master Shen (Dragonball) 79. Lord Jaguar (Dragonball Z) 80. Men-Men (Dragonball Z) 81. Vodka (Dragonball Z) 82. Bon Para (Dragonball GT) 83. Son Para (Dragonball GT) 84. Don Para (Dragonball GT) 85. Evil Buu (Dragonball Z) 86. Frieza (Dragonball Z) 87. Chilled (Dragonball Z) 88. Bojack (Dragonball Z) 89. Cooler (Dragonball Z) 90. Android 13 (Dragonball Z) 91. Omega Shenron (Dragonball GT) 92. Dr. Wheelo (Dragonball Z) 93. Lord Slug (Dragonball Z) 94. Gale (Dragonball GT) 95. Susha (Dragonball GT) 96.

The victor will always be the judge, and the vanquished the accused.
Generally speaking, almost all the characters I love are cowards inside. All my favorites become terrified when they are faced with a deadly situation. In fact, they are brave when on top, but become cowards when they are faced with a situation they can't handle. Yes, cowardice is an attribute I love greatly.
Yes, all of Frieza's military makes up my most favorites. Anyone aligned in this organization is my favorite due to the brutality and cruelty they represent and showcase. Those who have a very climactic end are the ones I like most.
Character Archetypes
So basically... it would go as follows, from favorite to least:
|
The quicker humanity advances, the more important it is to be the one who deals the first blow.
I have a slew of favorite battles... Dragon Ball's essence is captured with the engrossing battles that riddle the entire series with bone-crushing maneuvers. But my favorites deal with the most brutal fight scenes matching the music perfectly... The more devastating and sadistic the battles, the better. Especially the entire Frieza saga debacle... it holds the most amount of bloody, gut-wrenching hand-to-hand combat in the series run. In specific order... These are my picks for the greatest conflicts in the entire Dragon Ball franchise, respectively:
Favorite DB / Z / GT Battles
1. Zarbon v. Vegeta - Zarbon transforms into a demonic reptilian beast and pounds the life out of Vegeta with brutality as he unleashes a relentless succession of rapid headbutts, roundhouses, aerial bicycle kicks, devastating choke holds, and a bone-cracking pile-driver against Vegeta, tossing his opponent around like a rag doll. This is the one true battle where the villain completely dominates the protagonist character; And when Zarbon finds Vegeta along with Bulma and Krillin, he faces him a second time... However, Vegeta's strength has increased and Zarbon soon realizes he needs to assume his beastly form once more. Even after becoming the ruthless demon, Zarbon is still unable to topple the Saiyan's increased might. Vegeta rams into Zarbon from behind and sends him below, launching a devastating combination of blasts and blowing off Zarbon's armor. Vegeta mutilates Zarbon with a spine-cracking maneuver, smashing his fist clean through Zarbon's stomach, jamming into him and keeping his hand there while Zarbon begs for his life. Blood gushes out as Vegeta unleashes a blast through Zarbon's stomach, sending him sprawling into the air and directly to a watery grave in the Namekian sea. This is pretty much the epitome of the series to me. 2. Recoome v. Vegeta, Gohan, Krillin, and Goku - Recoome completely obliterates Vegeta, Gohan, and Krillin in a relentless combination of deadly maneuvers, the likes of which devastate his opponents to the brink of death... Recoome pulverizes Vegeta with a relentless take-down and topples Krillin with a single kick. After he's downed Vegeta and Krillin, Recoome's awesome onslaught continues as his enormously powerful bomber attack perfectly takes down Gohan directly prior to unleashing a neck-breaking kick that paralyzes him. 3. Spopovich v. Videl - After Videl keeps pounding into Spopovich with everything she's got, he just keeps on getting up... and is unaffected by her maneuvers. He has a fiendish secret; he's protected by Majin power, giving him limitless energy. Videl's systematic slaughter at the hands of Spopovich begins as she gets butchered in the tournament by Spopovich's ever-awesome combos. Now Spopovich is the kind of guy that doesn't go easy just 'cause Videl's a girl. This is what the audience wants to see: an all-out butchering of a female protagonist at the hands of a chaotic musclebound madman who doesn't stop his gruesome assault. A combination of stomach punches and face punches have never been so well placed... and the kneeing is done so well, it's unparalleled. Spopovich defined this saga's battles and took the spotlight when it came to being one tough psycho. 4. Android 19 v. Goku and Vegeta - Vegeta pummels Android 19 after intervening in Goku's scuffle... as Android 19 was about to choke the life out of Goku with his deadly grip. As Goku tries to fight for his life due to his ailing heart virus... Vegeta comes to his aid and topples Android 19, claiming that it shall be he and only he who defeats Goku. Awesome plot and extremely awesome battle scene. Android 19 gets eradicated by Vegeta's ruthless onslaught. The intense ferocity of the manner in which 19's arms are ripped off and he is decapitated clearly makes this one brilliant. 5. Nappa v. Piccolo, Gohan, Krillin, Tien, Chiaotzu, and Goku - Nappa butchers Tien's arm... unleashes an onslaught of attacks against Gohan, Krillin, and Piccolo... and is left unharmed after Chiaotzu sacrifices himself against the beast. Nappa continues to lay down the pain on his opponents as he eradicates Piccolo in front of Gohan. One of the most climactic and saddest scenes. Goku gets back at Nappa for the deaths of Chiaotzu, Tien, Piccolo, and Yamcha... and Nappa is completely paralyzed after Goku unleashes his Kaio-ken technique, leaving Nappa twitching and begging for his life. As Nappa asks Vegeta for help, the ruthless Saiyan slaughters him for his failure by tossing him into the air and unleashing a blast that completely obliterates him... making his eyes explode directly before turning him to dust. 6. Pui Pui v. Vegeta - Pui Pui battles Vegeta... delivering a spinning aerial maneuver and multiple swift kicks and is unable to attack him successfully. Pui Pui's battle environment is at ten times Earth's normal gravity... but Vegeta reveals he's trained under five hundred times Earth's normal gravity... leaving his opponent in complete shock. Vegeta ruthlessly pummels Pui Pui with a combination of bone-cracking maneuvers and unleashes a blast at his chest, obliterating him and leaving dust. 7. Garlic Junior v. Piccolo and Goku - Garlic Junior transforms and pounds the daylights out of Goku and Piccolo, rushing at them with a rapid succession of back-handed bone-cracking maneuvers. 8. Drum v. Tien and Goku - Drum fights Tien in brilliant fashion; and Goku takes him out in a single hit, knocking out his eyes. 9. Misokatsun, Ibifurya, and Kishime v. Master Roshi - The deadly Bio Warriors unleash a repertoire of swift maneuvers, including Misokatsun's blubbery strikes, Ebifurya's swift blows, and Kishime's shocking electric whips. Master Roshi puts up a valiant effort as he systematically dodges and attempts to block and deflect amidst their devastating combo. 10. General Blue v. Krillin and Goku - General Blue pumps up when facing Goku and Krillin, and whoops them around after paralyzing them. He even pulls out a shotgun in front of Goku's face, but fails when he sees a mouse, which triggers his fear of rodents. 11. Zarbon and Dodoria v. Namekians - Zarbon and Dodoria butcher the Namek elders and warriors. Zarbon kicks one elder in the neck, sending him sprawling, and roasts another Namekian with a palm blast while throwing the Dragon Balls around and catching them without difficulty. Dodoria then slams his elbow through one warrior, mouth blasts another, roasting him... and headbutts another into a mountain, wiping the bloody remnants from his spiky head. Dodoria then proceeds to eliminate the eldest Namek by snapping his neck... after butchering the Namek child with a mouth blast... and is attacked by Gohan after attempting to slaughter Dende. Gohan and Krillin pick up Dende and escape from Dodoria while the deadly brute chases them in midair. Dodoria launches numerous blasts after them. Eventually, they hide from Dodoria and the ruthless warrior unleashes a blast destroying the entire area. He leaves, thinking he's executed his fleeing foes. This here is a complete butchering. 14.

After the deed is done, one always becomes clever and philosophical.
My least favorite fights are those that either lasted too long and were just plain... boring, to say the least. I absolutely detest beam struggles, especially those that drag on forever. I prefer the more bone-cracking, pulse-pounding, nerve-wracking fist-to-fist battles instead of the uber-blast oriented ones. I found the Cell Saga to be my least favorite in terms of action, plot, and its lack of story-driven element. To be specific, I absolutely detested the Cell Games with some very minor exceptions. The saga seemed to be the least enthralling in terms of battles scenes and it's overall lack of compelling plot devices. Basically, if someone's not a Cell fan (like myself), then the saga ends up being a horrid experience. I also despise the silly material; I'm more of a seriousness lover when it comes to putting emphasis on the battle atmosphere and feel. These are, without a shred of doubt, my least favorite bouts in the series run:
Least Favorite DB / Z / GT Battles
1. Cell v. Gohan - Cell v. Gohan is my overall least favorite scuffle in the entire series run. I absolutely detested the two-way kamehameha struggle between Gohan and Cell. I found Cell's death to be extremely anticlimactic and a complete bore when it came to the extremity of prior sagas. In fact, I hated almost all of Perfect Cell's fights; the entire saga is my least favorite. 2. Super Buu v. Vegito - This fight really was terrible. Especially that silly bit with the fighting candy. I really don't like this kind of stuff as I find that it doesn't match the feel of the rest of the episodes. 3. Super Buu v. Gotenks - I hated this fight as well due to the pompous and annoying Gotenks character... it completely bored me to see both sides throw attacks at each other, especially those lame ones Gotenks thought up. 4. Captain Ginyu v. Goku - This is likely the only fight I disliked in the entire Frieza debacle. Otherwise, I absolutely loved and adored that saga. Captain Ginyu's fight was an embarrassment to the rest of the fights; the whole body change was useless gibberish and a waste of time... and the entire takedown of Ginyu was one of my least favorite endings to a battle. Some may argue that it was unique since he was turned to a frog but I just hated his ending and the overall fight. 5. Janemba v. Gogeta - I hate knockoff battles; especially ones that are knocked off from the Buu fights... Janemba's concept is a ripoff as it is... and the whole Gogeta ripoff makes this fight a useless ripoff. 6. Cell v. Goku - I hated this fight almost as much as the long-dragged Gohan v. Cell fight. The only redeeming factor was the honorable forfeit of Goku. 7. Broly v. Goten and Trunks - This fight was terrible. The very idea of Trunks urinating on Broly's head was lame. 8. Goku v. Uub - Uub's entire concept was rather useless... and to see him fight Goku in the final two or so episodes of DBZ really annoyed me. It was a rather anticlimactic ending without much emphasis on tension... it kept the series ending extremely low-key and was one of my many disappointments in terms of battles. 9. Naturon Shenron v. Goku - Naturon is probably the most useless of the evil dragons... both his mole form and the large bowtie-wearing form was rather dull... and the whole conflict here was extremely dull with Pan being absorbed and what not... and Goku having to free her from him. Very dull indeed. 10. Kid Buu v. Goku - I expected a better ending for the final antagonist of the DBZ saga... but I was very let down to see this pathetic excuse of an ending; the Spirite Bomb again? I mean, come on... a new and better exit could have been prepared... those kamehameha waves and spirit bombs grow lame. |
It isn't right to be obedient only when things go well; it is much harder to be a good, obedient soldier when things go badly and times are hard. Obedience and faith at such time is a virtue.
I hate characters due to their actions; Since I'm a fan of villains, the worst act to me is betraying the actual villains. My least favorite characters are those who go against the villains by switching sides or those who start out as antagonists but go ahead and join the heroes. In the long run, I do dislike all the heroes... But I still feel the worst archetype of character to be the "tough-guy" who switches sides repeatedly just to get their way... and is pretty much on their own side the whole time... but inadvertently helps the heroes by defeating the actual villains. These characters transfer to other entertainment mediums as well. For example, my least favorite characters in other series are Darth Vader (Star Wars), Wolverine (Marvel/X-Men), The Punisher (Marvel), etc. These types of characters annoy me most of all; especially when they enjoy taking down the villainous characters. Ultimately, My least favorites comprise of the following:
Least Favorite DB / Z / GT Characters
1. Vegeta - a$%head who betrays his lord and master, as well as his comrades and elites; and goes against his orders; all traitors must be executed; summarily shot under the military chain of command. 2. Android 17 - idiotic malfunctioning brat loser; hate this jerk so much, sometimes I feel like pushing it to number one for my least favorites; the fact that he betrays his creator Dr. Gero ticked me off... and the disgusting attitude and the way he went about it annoyed me far too much... I can't believe I rooted for a hero character (in this case, Piccolo) to hand him his own buttocks. But this is a very rare occasion. 3. Cell - moronic creation and overall failure; since when does making a random "tournament" to challenge one's skills qualify as "evil", it's just competitive... what a lame saga and a lame ending to a lame character who wasted time onscreen. 4. Majin Buu (Fat) - whiny and infantile jerk bas%&%rd who betrays the likes of Dabura and Babidi. Such a stupid concept... and the fact that it reminds me of a doofus pokemon thing... by calling out its retarded name. 5. Nuova Shenron - big-time traitorous jerk who betrays his own brother Eis Shenron just to have that whole honor bit achieved with Goku... since when does corresponding to honor account for betraying your own brethren... scum like this is what ticks me off most of all. Especially the kind that helps the heroes progress. 6. Pan - far too annoying to handle; I believe this character's presence was the complete reason as to why GT failed and had to be stopped after a mere 64 episodes. 7. Broly - idiotic character who appears randomly and is supposed to be "uber-powerful" without any sustained back-story... Goku made him cry? Give me a break... he's just an idiotic moron who spouts a one-word phrase over and over and makes Spopovich seem like a genius college graduate with a degree in physics. 8. Gotenks - a stupid pompous combination of two already stupid characters. I honestly do not like the entire concept and idea behind "fusion", but that's me. I hate fusing two pre-existing characters to make another; which turns out to have a more dumber and jerk-like attitude. 9. Kid Trunks - little upstart brat with a very self-loving attitude and extremely pompous; I really hate the child characters who act like this. 10. Goten - for the same reasons as Kid Trunks... they suck so bad and are so annoying to stare at when they pee here and there randomly and achieve nothing crucial but bickering and whining... so annoying; they are to Z what Pan is to GT. 11. Vegito - another random uber-powerful combo of two pre-existing characters whom I certainly don't love. And to think that someone like this has a fanbase with his one and a half episode appearance... and it's accomplishments being... well... getting turned into a candy... so damn annoying. 12. Gogeta - another useless concept of a fusion... I really don't like fusions, especially when they're randomly supposed be this strong for no reason. 13. Android 18 - another pompous jerk along with that useless 17... The way the character went about showing herself off and acting like nothing is wrong... or just acting calm and pissing me off with that attitude by thinking she's too good. I actually wanted Vegeta to own her and lay down the law, and I'm a villain fan... 14. Arale - moronic little girl who is supposed to be stronger than actually powerful villains in Dragon Ball...? What the heck... she should have stayed in Dr. Slump-ville where she belonged and just went and got some metal to chew on in Penguin Village; we certainly didn't need her childish presence in Dragon Ball... 15. Trunks - jerk Saiyan scumbag who is supposed to appear and be stronger than all the Super Saiyans of the past...? what the heck was this concept of eliminating Frieza in one fell swoop when the guy lasted 90 episodes of extreme deadly power and having an enormous battle clash against all the heroes. I really hated his attitude too... oh a savior from the future who has come to make things better... and he's supposed to be this young teenage heart-throb... moronic concept. 16. Janemba - stupid ripoff of Buu's prior concept... well... all the movie villains are a ripoff of the series villains (who are actually good in comparison to the movie villains)... but this one was just way too stupid... like Buu wasn't bad enough, there had to be another moron to join the circus. 17. Pikkon - idiotic filler character who is supposed to be able to topple all the villains it took like 150 episodes to take down... what a useless character... unbelievable how foolish of a concept this character constitutes. |
Time always has some reconciling effect. On every ruin there eventually grows grass, and then some shrubbery, and finally, before you realize it, what is really an old hideous ruin becomes a romantic sight and legend.
I have far too many favorite episodes... Something must be in sync with the overall surprise element and the initial idea getting across while maintaining the action and pulling in the audience. I felt that the shorter, yet more brutal battles were far superior to the longer running fights. I actually enjoyed all the moments in the shorter battles in comparison to the main fights. Coincidentally, my favorite episodes greatly revolve around these swift and tactical maneuvers onscreen. Of course, they aren't the emotional episodes or the tragic ones, but they are those dealing with the most amount of havoc, chaos, and just plain bone-crushing, spine-breaking, gut-wrenching, nail-biting, and knuckle-cracking tension. Ultimately, my favorite episodes deal with the most brutal fight scenes matching the music perfectly... with every twitching finger, every erupting vein, and every clenched fist triggering a climax of musical intrigue. These are my favorite episodes, in respective order...

A soldier's first duty is to obey, otherwise you might as well do away with soldiering.
My favorite is definitely the Japanese version as it is the closest to the original idea. I hate the Dragon Ball Kai version overall because I hate the music in Dragon Ball Kai. My favorite background music (composed by Shunsuke Kikuchi) are all in the original Japanese. I didn't like the Funimation dub or the Ocean dub nearly as much as the Japanese, but I prefer the Funimation dvd releases to the Ocean because the music was horrid in the Ocean dub. I still feel the worst overall is the Funimation television version; the version that included Bruce Faulconer's music (I hated most of the music by Faulconer except for a very minor few like "Pikkon's Theme" and Android 19's "Electronic Circus")... while in the Japanese dub, I loved a ton, and I mean, a ton of music. The essence of Dragon Ball is greatly captured by the exquisite tracks that allow the series to unfold. These are my favorites, respectively:
Favorite DB / Z / GT Music
What do I care about danger? I've sent soldiers and airmen to death against the enemy — why should I be afraid?
Emotional scenes can make or break a series. Dragon Ball is riddled with enormous sadness and tragedy; It's scenes are intertwined with ferocity but compel great emotional value and justify a certain respectable quality that engulfs the viewer with vivid thought and a taste of morality. Without scenes of this caliber, the series would not be the same. It is a combination of the great battles along with the great overwhelming tragic scenery that allows the series to be as great as it is. An enormous amount of virtue, heroism, and philosophical truth can be obtained from this series and everyone has their favorite scenes when it comes to the display of emotional value. These are my picks for the most emotional moments in the series run:
Favorite Emotional Moments in DB / Z / GT
1. Piccolo dies with Earth, being attached to the planet by heart, and deciding to share the fate of the planet he grew to love, saying farewell to Gohan. He explains that sometimes the best thing to do may not be what we want. Very emotional. 2. Piccolo dies in front of Gohan after running in front of Nappa's attack to save Gohan's life. Then he proceeds to tell Gohan of how fond he's grown of him. 3. Vegeta sacrifices himself against Buu, right after the emotional speech and when Piccolo tells Vegeta that if he sacrifices himself, he may be punished for his prior crimes.

Least Favorite Death Scenes or Ends
1. Cell - a long dragged-out double-Kamehameha struggle ends with his extremely boring demise. No other time in the series did I want a character to die sooner than in this part. I absolutely despised this ending to an already boring saga. 2. Kid Buu - I expected more from this ending as I was completely bored and annoyed with the prior main antagonist's one. It was just another long-lasting blast element rather than a swift and awesome demise. 3. Captain Ginyu - I hated this for an ending. It was annoying and idiotic to find a character trapped in the body of an animal rather than meet a grisly demise. 4. Garlic Junior - I didn't like his ending either. Although it was better than the likes of Ginyu, his end of being trapped in the dead zone was still rather horrid as he never met a fitting demise, on both occasions. 5. Piano - I hated his end as well... I found his character to do very little as it was... so his end was a complete bore... just seeing him fall into the crack in the ground while King Piccolo was charging up was rather lame. 6. Colonel Silver - His end was rather dull... and I didn't know whether he survived or died... I was completely baffled about his fate and I really hate when an end is left unanswered like this. 7. Sergeant-Major Purple Ninja Murasaki - I hated his anime demise of the bomb being accidentally tossed on his face while he yells, it was far too comical to his serious demeanor and awesome attitude. He deserved much better than that silliness. 8. Dabura - Getting turned into a cookie is as stupid as getting turned into chocolate, cake, candy, or anything else by Buu. He deserved a more climactic end for being such a good villain concept. 9. Yakon - The manner in which he was taken out seemed rather silly to me. Just taking in too much energy before he explodes was rather dull... and the manner in which he exploded was just as infantile in appearance. |

Favorite Dragon Ball Games
1. Dragon Ball Z: Budokai Tenkaichi 2 - Best Story Mode, Best Additional Story Mode, Best Character Roster (Includes Zarbon, Dodoria, and Cui), Best Music in Japanese Version and English Version, Best Additional Features, etc. This game was so good, it even gave Zarbon his OWN what-if story mode, making him the primary character within. The only other character to receive this treatment in-game is Raditz and this was also a wise decision. Generally speaking, how can this game ever be topped if it's the one game that has all the aforementioned aspects perfectly rolled into one. 2. Dragon Ball Z: Tenkaichi Tag Team - Best Unlock-able Modes, Best 2-on-2 fighting, Excellent Character Roster (Includes Zarbon, Dodoria, and Cui), Best Side Missions, etc. 3. Dragon Ball Z: Ultimate Battle 22 - Best 2D angle DBZ fighting game, Good Character Roster (Includes Zarbon and Recoome), Classic View Game-play. 4. Dragon Ball Z: Budokai - Best Budokai Series Game, Best Story Mode in Budokai Series Game, Best Cut-scenes, Excellent Character Roster (Includes Zarbon and Dodoria). 5. Dragon Ball Z: Budokai Tenkaichi 3 - Excellent Character Roster (Includes Zarbon, Dodoria, and Cui as well as additional favorites), Great Additional Features; Negative Aspect: Short Story Mode. 6. Dragon Ball Z: Legend of the Super Saiyan - Excellent RPG-style game; Excellent Boss Fights (Including Zarbon, Dodoria, Cui, Jeice, Burter, Recoome, Guldo, Nappa, Raditz, etc.) Excellent Story Mode from Vegeta Saga to Frieza Saga end. 7. Dragon Ball Z: Raging Blast 2 - Great Character Roster (Including Zarbon, Dodoria, and Cui), Great Online Features, Great Multi-player Features, etc. 8. Dragon Ball Z: Raging Blast - Great Character Roster (Including Zarbon and Dodoria), Negative Aspect: controls aren't as easy to adapt to as previous installments. 9. Dragon Ball Z: Budokai Tenkaichi - Excellent Addition of characters into the roster after waiting for many years of previous Budokai games; Zarbon and Dodoria finally included here. Negative Aspect: Character transformations are separate characters by selection instead of transforming in-game; this is an error later fixed in forthcoming Tenkaichi series games. 10. Dragon Ball Z: Extreme Butōden - A newer handheld release which I found to be very swift in combat similar to the original Street Fighter and Mortal Kombat style games. I actually enjoy the game mechanic used for this specific handheld. I wish the character roster were complete as opposed to being limited but at least it constitutes a large majority of my favorites as Z Assist characters (Zarbon, Dodoria, Jeice, Burter, Recoome, Guldo, Android 19, etc). 11. Dragon Ball Z: The Legend - Excellent game-play for a 2D game. Excellent multi-opponent combat mechanism. Very unique and easy to adapt to. Negative Aspect: No Zarbon, Dodoria, and Cui. Completely Skips Namek Saga and goes directly to the Ginyu Tokusentai. Terrible Character Roster. |
Least Favorite Dragon Ball Games
I generally enjoy most Dragon Ball games, but I don't like games that do not include my favorite characters. I also don't like games that are exceptionally terrible in terms of the game mechanics. 1. Dragon Ball GT: Final Bout - Here's a very bad attempt at a fighting game. The mechanism is terrible, the characters are exceptionally slow, the graphics are rather poor even for the era, and the roster is also horrible. This is the single worst fighting experience and it happens to be a GT game. 2. Dragon Ball Z: Ultimate Tenkaichi - This is a very bad installment even though it has a slew of my favorite characters. Most of the game relies too heavily on the customization aspect and not enough on the actual game-play... which there isn't much of to begin with. The game is full of faults. There is no actual tactics being used for the AI and the game is programmed to simply do a very useless button mash combo. So basically, the entire game's premise is to rely on the square, triangle, circle, and x to choose which attack or defense is performed, but not actually do anything else in terms of combat. This is the exact opposite of a game which relies on actual skills and tactics. Rather, it relies only on chance, which means the worst player can beat the best player just by button mashing. 3. Dragon Ball Z: Burst Limit - Horrible Roster. No Zarbon and Dodoria. 4. Dragon Ball Z: Sagas - Bad game-play. Extremely slow-moving enemies and characters. Very poor story mode. No Zarbon and Dodoria. Terrible Platforming attempt. This could have been a good game and I'm still looking forward to a very good DBZ-related action-adventure platform game and sandbox style game, but this is a failure. 5. Dragon Ball Z: Budokai 3 - Terrible Roster (No Zarbon and Dodoria; and after skipping Namek Saga which matters the most to me, they manage to skip the REAL androids saga and take out Android 19 as well, who happens to be my favorite android character); Terrible button mashing garbage added here, primarily due to "burst mode" and "dragon rush"... two things I absolutely despise with a hatred unbeknownst to man. The AI abuses these rather idiotic chance combos as well and the game relies far too heavily on the chance execution of these mechanisms rather than actual fighting. The worst thing is that these boring and lame features can't even be turned off. And even worse is that you must enter this "burst mode" to even fulfill certain in-game attacks, which coincidentally are extremely difficult to pull off normally since burst mode runs out too quickly. Terrible gaming aspect here. Dragon Rush is the absolute worst thing about this game, forcing all the characters to enter a sequence of square, triangle, circle, and x guesses and destroying any chances of an actual fight; so the health bar of either opponent is dragged down by the mere pressing of these buttons are the proper time. 6. Dragon Ball Z: Budokai 2 - Terrible Roster as usual (No Zarbon and Dodoria); Dimps really was bad at the selection here. This is why Spike is better. This is also why Dimps is bad at rosters and sagas as well as story modes as it skips pretty much every part of every saga that actually matters to me. Completely skips the aspects of each saga that I found to be the best. Terrible additional features, an overall failure in terms of game-play. Adding cel-shading doesn't make a game better. 7. Dragon Ball Z: Shin Budokai - Just a rehashed version of Budokai 2 in portable format with Pikkon in it. Useless overall, none of my favorites present here either. 8. Dragon Ball Z: Infinite World - Another version of Budokai 3 with very minor tweaks. Still has terrible game-play and no adjustment made to the pre-existing horrible roster. 9. Dragon Ball Z: Battle of Z - I'm skipping this one entirely. There's already no confirmation of any of my favorite characters or my favorite saga in this game. |

Favorite Anime Series and Movies
1. Dragon Ball Z / Dragon Ball / Dragon Ball GT - No other series offers the amount of unique and excellent designed villains in terms of background and appearance as this. My all-time favorites in the series are Zarbon, Dodoria, and Cui for being three of the most exquisitely designed, unique, colorful, wicked, brutal, mysterious, cocky, and savage villains in the series while maintaining their military discipline and remaining loyal to their evil Lord, Frieza. I love how they play such a huge role in advising Frieza to eradicate the Saiyans (whom I despise). I love how they set the entire story of Dragon Ball into motion. I love how their story is overall concocted... that of brutal warriors who make civilizations suffer and in turn are forced to suffer themselves when meeting a grisly fate at the hands of the ruthless Vegeta. Zarbon, Dodoria, and Cui are not only my three favorite characters in Dragon Ball, but ultimately, my favorite characters in all anime. 2. Vampire Hunter D / Vampire Hunter D: Bloodlust - The animation was extremely brilliant in both instances (especially Bloodlust) and there's a slew of villains I like from both. My all-time favorites are Mashira (the mutated werewolf) and Benge (the shadow warrior). I love the Barbarois overall and the storyline attached to Bloodlust is awesomeness. It's about two mercenary-for-hire teams that are after a vampire who has kidnapped a girl... although they are unaware that the girl has gone willingly since she loves the vampire (Meier Link). The story ends with uber-climax and uber-awesome fight scenes. There's way too much action and bittersweet moments, portraying the cruelty and beauty simultaneously. There are few other instances where I've seen such a combination work so well. 3. Hellsing - The storyline is intensely awesome. One religious organization fighting against another using vampires and maniacal priests against each other is freaking awesomeness. The characters are brilliant as well, especially Paladin Alexander Anderson, my personal favorite. I love the overall feel of the series... it's very dramatic yet it doesn't hinder the action one bit. There's lots of emotion attached to the relationship between the main character, Alucard, and his "police girl", Seras Victoria. There's lots of pain and suffering that the organizations must endure in order to overcome greater threats, such as Incognito. The remake of the series is likely equally as good, as it stays true to the manga. Both are knockout series though and recommended hands down. 4. Cowboy Bebop - Always loved the entire story. However, I wish it were longer. My favorite tale is definitely Waltz for Venus due to my favorite character in the series being Roco Bonnaro. I love how in every episode the main cast travels and associates with different rogues and wanted criminals. So many nice stories wrapped up in each episode with moral and virtues... so much anguish and suffering just for one series. Just the way I like it... deep and complex. 5. One Piece - I love the story arcs and villains as usual. Some of my favorites are Cabaji, Siam, Butchi, Captain Kuro, Don Krieg, Choo, Arlong, etc. Another really long list of favorites here. I followed the story to the part after the Crocodile arc... but didn't get to see more. I loved the story up to that point so I'm sure I'd like some of the rest. Each of the main characters has a sad story that fuels their desires and allows them to continue headstrong. They always rely on their tactics to get ahead... and it seems to work well in the series. 6. Shaman King - After seeing Lee Bailong (Pyron), it seemed to go well with me. There are others I liked as well, such as Faust XIII and Tokagero. It was an awesome series overall and had lots of complexity for people who associate with spirits as their fighting allies. I enjoyed many of the characters in the series. I did, however, prefer the route the manga took after a certain point in the series because the series was toned down as the manga became more and more grisly and gruesome, which was completely to my liking. In this instance, I liked the manga slightly better than the anime although both were good. 7. Yu Yu Hakusho - If someone likes DBZ, they eventually might get into this. Gama from the Dark Tournament is my most favorite here, using his Make-up of the Seal. There are a slew of others I liked who face off against the heroes (four guys who keep fighting to protect humans from the demon world and arrest demon criminals)... the story was well established. I felt there were lots of really well-orchestrated fight scenes in the series overall. And the story gets deeper and deeper as it unfolds near the end, where everyone finds out that the main character has demon blood as well. 8. Hell Girl - Lots of awesome characters that appear in each episode and die in each episode. Their stories are each compelling and enigmatic... I'm always interested to see who else will be dragged to hell by the hell girl. 9. Elfen Lied - Here's another awesome one. I love the character of Bando here. He's a relentless military guy who never gives up, even after getting beaten severely by the main character. 10. Fullmetal Alchemist / Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood - So many awesome characters who come and go... such as Shou Tucker, the maniacal doctor who used his own daughter as an experimental test subject and changed her into a chimera. And was wicked enough to use the serum on himself when the government found out about his actions. Loved some other too, like Greed (who had one of the most awesome animated fights I've ever seen onscreen). Pride, the awesome hidden villain throughout the whole debacle. And every time Roy Mustang and Scar executed someone, the scenes automatically became legendary. So many exciting scenes here. 11. Fist of the North Star - Excellent kung fu style action, with pulsating and exploding nerves and muscles. Like Nappa constantly getting enraged. Very awesome series. I loved the violent sequences and overall attitude portrayed by the characters. 12. Blood: The Last Vampire - Something about it just appealed to me. Maybe the animation or the way it was drawn. 13. Bastard! - I liked the art style here. 14. Berserk - This was another nice one. |
Least Favorite Anime Series
1. Naruto - the only series I actually hate, strongly. All the characters don't appeal to me, due to the fact that they don't have color and due to the fact that they all look like regular folk but without ninja garb, with raggedy clothing and ugly headbands. If I want to watch ninjas, I'd watch Mortal Kombat (best ninjas ever). 2. Transformers - I also disliked Transformers, partly because I have a strong hatred against robots, machinery, mechs, etc. I always had a distaste for all things mechanized. Transformers in particular never appealed to me, it also seemed to be targeted at younger audiences. I did like Power Rangers though (not an anime) but as a defense, I only liked the rangers and villains, not the zords and mechs. 3. Pokemon - Sometimes I don't even know if this is considered an anime... but it was horrible either way. 4. Yu Gi Oh - Always disliked this card-related junk, all kids dueling stuff annoyed the life out of me. I hated pokemon for childish mini animals and this for childish card games. 5. Hamtaro - Another really annoying mini-animal garbage. 6. Card Captors - don't know what this is considered, always disliked it for the same reasons I disliked yu gi oh and pokemon. 7. Digimon - more junk in the form of trading, cards, and dueling. 8. Gundam Wing - and any other show that had to do with these mechs and bots. 9. Bobobo-bo Bo-bobo - I never needed to pronounce it correctly because it was drawn to appeal to three-year-olds. 10. Higurashi - I hated all of it. Almost all of the story was in random order and none of it was exciting anyway. All the characters are lame kids who try to kill each other and I couldn't tell if they succeeded or not because they just kept showing things in random order and had separate arcs that sort of brought them back to life every time. This was a total mess and I despised all of it in terms of story. 11. Beyblade - more versus garbage using tools. 12. Zoids - Another lame series about bots. 13. Bakugan - More idiocy compiled to appeal to a younger audience. |
Favorite Characters in Other Series, Movies, and Games
These are all my favorite characters from non-anime entertainment, consisting of villains and victims and ranging from numerous series, movies, and games. 1. Brendan Filone (The Sopranos) - Brendan Filone was Christopher Moltisanti's friend and partner in crime and an associate in the Tony Soprano crew. He was a major character in the first season. A smart-mouth and egotistical loose cannon, he was still capable and, like many young gangsters, wanted to move up the ladder too quickly. Brendan was addicted to crystal meth, and may have sold it occasionally with Christopher. However, his real skill was hijacking trucks. Brendan and Christopher got themselves in trouble, hijacking Comley Trucking trucks and taking their DVD players. Unfortunately, Comley was under protection from Corrado "Junior" Soprano, and Junior immediately asked for restitution. The price was a little steep, so to ensure that he got enough money himself, he went to hit Comley Trucking again. However, Christopher refused to go with him, and as a result, the driver was shot and Brendan was horrified. People who don't play by the rules don't last very long in this type of life. Brendan was shot to death in his bathtub, clean through the eye (Moe Greene Special, a Mafia killing meaning his "eyes had gotten too big for his stomach") by Junior's trigger man, Mikey Palmice as Junior watched. The scene was inter-cut with tender music in a magnificent montage reminiscent of the Godfather execution sequences, to decorate the violence. 2. Matthew Bevilaqua (The Sopranos) - Matthew Bevilaqua was Sean Gismonte's partner in crime and an associate in the Tony Soprano crew. He was a major character in the second season. He wanted to move up in the ranks too quickly. He worked the executive card game along with Sean and also sold webistics in a stock firm, initially selling a doomed share to foolish clients. Matt did some jobs with Chris and Sean before planning a hit on Chris in order to get recognized by Richie Aprile. Matt and Sean pulled the hit on Chris, resulting in Sean getting shot to death and Chris seriously wounded. Matt ran away and went straight to Richie in order to receive aid. However, Richie decided not to help and chased him with a baseball bat instead. Matt temporarily ran away until his eventual capture by Pussy, who got some info from someone about where Matt was hiding. Pussy and Tony dragged a beaten Matt to an abandoned shack in Hacklebarney, sat him down on a chair, and asked him some questions about the attempted shooting. Matt was extremely afraid and shaking when he was captured, portraying a great deal of cowardice. Matt blamed the already deceased Sean in an attempt to stay alive but it didn't work. Tony and Pussy let loose with an array of bullets, riddling him with their weapons and piercing into Matt rapidly, his body jolting. Cops later found Matt's body punctured with bullets. The feds tried to pin the murder on Tony, but they were unsuccessful. 3. Sean Gismonte (The Sopranos) - Sean Gismonte was Matthew Bevilaqua's partner in crime and an associate in the Tony Soprano crew. He was a major character in the second season. He wanted to move up in the ranks too quickly, along with Matt. He worked the executive card game along with Matt and also sold webistics in a stock firm, initially selling a doomed share to foolish clients. Sean and Matt also broke some safes together, although they had to pay a large percentage of the cash to Tony. Sean did some jobs with Chris and Matt before planning a hit on Chris in order to get recognized by Richie Aprile. Matt and Sean pulled a drive-by hit on Chris. Sean shot Chris multiple times and Chris was still able to retaliate. Sean's seat-belt was stuck and Chris managed to shoot him right in the head, killing him. Chris was left in critical condition and Matt fled the scene, only to be killed by Tony and Pussy later on. 4. Dino Zerilli (The Sopranos) - Dino was Jackie Aprile Jr.'s friend and partner in crime. Dino began working directly for Ralph, in allegiance with Jackie. Upon hearing Ralph tell the story of when Jackie Aprile, Sr. and Tony took down a card game held by Feech La Manna, Dino became inspired to follow in their footsteps. Along with Carlo Renzi, Jackie Aprile, Jr., and Matush, Dino attempted to hold up a card game run by Aprile soldier Eugene Pontecorvo. However, things went horribly awry and after killing Sunshine the dealer, Carlo Renzi was killed at the scene and Jackie, Jr. barely escaped with his life, leaving Dino Zerilli to perish at the hands of Christopher Moltisanti and Albert Barese, with numerous bullet wounds directly to the face. 5. Ronald Barlog (Oz) 6. Richie Hanlon (Oz) 7. Nikolai Stanislofsky (Oz) 8. Margos Dezerian (The Shield) 9. Ari Zadofian (The Shield) 10. Ellis Rezian (The Shield) 11. Moe Greene (The Godfather) 12. Leon Trotsky (Frida) 13. Larry Purvis (Alien: Resurrection) 14. Donald Gennaro (Jurassic Park) 15. Eddie Carr (The Lost World) 16. Darth Maul (Star Wars: The Phantom Menace) 17. Maw (Star Wars: Jedi Knight: Dark Forces II) 18. Phillip Purcell (Candyman: Farewell to the Flesh) 19. Carnage (Spider-Man) 20. Toad (X-Men) 21. Reptile (Mortal Kombat) - The Ninja characters are my ultimate favorites in Mortal Kombat, and Reptile is my most in the entire series. Oh man! The green ninja! I love his loyalty even knowing his race's eradication and the very essence of his being; which is a henchman, dying loyally, and staying evil throughout the series run. I hate characters that change their ways, and I love that Reptile is a cold-blooded evil villain who is a henchman and is actually a reptilian henchman, which is the number one reason to automatically qualify as my favorite in the series. I love reptiles and I love his role and mannerism. His movie role is as good as the game versions and I love his fight scene best in the entire movie-verse as well as his moves in the game-verse. In the movie, I love how he is conniving against the protagonists and deceptive, luring them and using his skills to attack them off guard. I love how he guards Kitana and follows orders strictly from Tsung. I love that he portrays great resolve and battle capability against Kang (great job Keith Cooke!) and delivers very exquisite reptilian-like slithery movements as well as bone-cracking maneuvers. What I love most though, other than his awesome ninja design as well as the face-mask, is how he portrayed complete tiredness and cowardice when Kang slaughtered him with the bicycle kick; that was just the best to me in all MK. Also, his music was the best! The whole "control" bgm kicked the most behind ever to me in all the mk movies and games. In the games, I love his invisibility, tactical camouflage techniques, acid spitting, elongated tongue, reptilian forms, grotesque fatalities, and deadly neon green force field blasts... in every possible way... this character is the personification of awesomeness to me. 22. Two-Face (The Dark Knight) - Who else liked Two-Face the most in Dark Knight? I felt he was the strongest, most powerful role in the film overall and Eckhart's performance actually made me love the character of Two-Face more than Joker, whom I had loved the most for the last 20 years of my life. After this movie came out, Two-Face quickly became my favorite DC character hands down and I very rarely ever have changed my opinion. Eckhart's performance was just so right on... I mean, that's as close as anyone can get to the comics. Two-Face was the true villain of the movie as Joker's scenes were a build to Dent's tragedy and his own downfall to the levels of a criminal. As is witnessed, the primary plot point seemed to me that Joker's success was bringing the white knight to the level of the criminals; and Eckhart's transformation from Harvey Dent to Two-Face makes him the most compelling to me. After watching the movie ten-fold and seeing how much I love seeing the lives of others decided based on the toss of a coin, Two-Face remains my favorite DC character and thus, shall remain as such. And even in the comics, his character is so dark and deep. The morality and complexity of his decision making processes make him so tragic yet at the same time a force to be reckoned with. His double image and his two personalities make him so extravagant and handsome, yet at the same time, a savage yet vicious sadistic maniac. Two-Face's own enigma and his persona are so influential to the psychosis of the mind, that I have found him to be the other greatest villain in DC history aside from Joker, who is now my 2nd favorite character in DC. And the beauty of it all was that Batman flipped his head in the end to try to cover up the burnt portion of his face, resembling the side of humankind that we attempt to hide. But you can't hide evil forever. And this great powerful character embodies this double-sided coin that shall always spin; a duality that yearns to be understood. Two-Face all the way: The true villain of "the Dark Knight" flick. Best villain from the DC universe for his psychological torment and the great schizophrenic struggle endured by his own duality and the conundrum of his existence. By far the deepest and best designed villain as well due to the scarred visage playing a dynamic role in his elegant and handsome side being a clever camouflage to his grisly and deadly side. Also, a powerhouse of a character due to the epitome of the madman within, a white knight who turned to a wicked persona worse than those he locked up, and the pure definition of justice with the toss of a coin... Fair, and without a shred of emotion. Best hands down. 23. Dr. Schabbs (Wolfenstein 3D) 24. Lieutenant Kif Kroker (Futurama) 25. Dr. John Zoidberg (Futurama) 26. Waylon Smithers (The Simpsons) 27.

Jackie Aprile, Jr. (The Sopranos) - Jackie Aprile, Jr. was born into North Jersey mafia royalty. His father, Jackie Aprile, Sr., was once the boss of Northern New Jersey, and his uncle Richie Aprile was a capo first under Ercoli 'Eckley' DiMeo, and then later under Tony Soprano. Despite attempts to succeed at Rutgers, Jackie, Jr. drifted towards a life of crime as he began helping his uncle Richie with business. It was Ralph's bad influence, coupled with laziness and a sense of entitlement due to his family name, that propelled Jackie, Jr. into a brief and ignominious career in organized crime. He began small by selling Ecstasy to college kids, driving a getaway car for Christopher Moltisanti and then later by trying to use his 'influence' to help a drug dealer sell at the club the Crazy Horse, owned by Chris and fronted by Adriana La Cerva. However, Jackie, Jr.'s relationship with Meadow Soprano put him at odds with Tony, and as a result, he tried to maintain the appearance of a respectable college student while drifting further into a life of crime. Tony was furious because he had tried so hard to keep Jackie straight. Jackie began working directly for Ralph, forming his own crew in the process. Upon hearing Ralph tell the story of when Jackie Aprile, Sr. and Tony took down a card game held by Feech La Manna, Jackie became inspired to follow in his father's footsteps. Using his crew of Carlo Renzi, Dino Zerilli and Matush, Jackie attempted to hold up a card game run by Aprile soldier Eugene Pontecorvo. However, things went horribly awry and after killing Sunshine the dealer, Carlo Renzi was killed at the scene and Jackie, Jr. barely escaped with his life, leaving Dino Zerilli to perish at the hands of Christopher Moltisanti and Albert Barese. Jackie, Jr. then hid out in the Boonton Projects and tried to get Tony to help him, but he was unable to do so. Tony knew Jackie had to go, so he gave the order to Ralph Cifaretto who had Vito Spatafore whack Jackie, Jr. Vito shot him right in the back of the head, jolting Jackie's body forward and splat face down. The death of Jackie, Jr. had an enormous effect on Meadow Soprano. 66. Rocksteady (Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles) 67. Major Duncan Heyward (The Last Of The Mohicans) 68.

I played with Scorpion second most, not just cause he's my second favorite, but because his fighting style and techniques kick very good behind. All hell breaks loose with his maniacal fire-breathing, skull-smashing relentlessness... and his overall role of the deceased ninja is a major win. I love his story as well, the fact that he was executed by the real Sub-Zero and remained a rival of his, yet is forced to work alongside him to face a common threat; the protagonists. What an unbelievably awesome concept. All thumbs up to whomever came up with this idea cause it just plain rocked... I love his devotion to never clash with his adversary, though deadly as they are; for friends they shall remain in ferocious combat. 109. Sub-Zero (Mortal Kombat) - The blue ninja! For the same reasons stated above, and his overall majestic ice tactics, freeze notions, and slippery water maneuvers. Of course, I limit my love to the evil Sub-Zero (Noob Saibot), not the good one without the mask and with the scar... I do not like the concept of the good one even slightly... But we all need to love that awesome Sub-Zero who freezes and uses these icy fingers of his to lay waste to those who oppose his frosty awesomeness... and lay waste he shall... by turning the surrounding into a frozen tundra. Damn he's awesome. 110. Motaro (Mortal Kombat) - Centaur bull-looking minotaur beast demon thing... all out awesome. I love his mannerism, stature, and attitude. I actually love both his game version and movie version (which is rare because most of that second movie sucked) 111. Kintaro (Mortal Kombat) - The stronger version of Goro, and with tiger stripes, he's damn awesome. I love his technique and who doesn't want to get hit sky-high or nailed into the ground...? I love that. 112. Kano (Mortal Kombat) - Oh wow... what can I say...? He was just plain brilliant in the movie-verse (love the aussie) and equally awesome in the game-verse. I can't forget just how much I loved seeing his eye lasers and brilliant roller-ball technique. Oh man, and the track by the immortals is my favorite song version theme out of all of them; I love his music and development... Such a fierce character; and I just love his metallic face implant; so damn cool. 113. Goro (Mortal Kombat) - The first of the many-arm dudes, I loved his character and the fact that he was limited to being a boss, well... until he was playable in the ultimate trilogy collection, still awesomeness, as I found him to be a good powerhouse character but rather fast at the same time. 114.

His reference to himself in the plural form makes it quite interesting; wonder just how many souls he's got inside him. Interesting how he came to be from the whole "error macro" concept as a glitch and was infused in the mk canon. 297. Judge Claude Frollo (The Hunchback of Notre Dame) 298. Right Hand (Desperado) 299.

Tom Scoggins (Deep Blue Sea) 361. Joker (The Dark Knight) - Joker is the replication of humanity's evils but as a definition of these stereotypes. Joker's goal is chaos. He is a harbinger of chaos and insanity. He wants to create havoc where there is peace; this in turn makes him complete. And in the comics, Joker succeeds in defeating Batman in one instance and feels incomplete as a result... this is well depicted in the movie when Joker states that he doesn't want to kill Batman because he's too much fun; this is merely icing on the cake; sometimes, some people merely obtain their joy in life from seeing others in tragedy. 362.

Baraka (Mortal Kombat) - Fr%*(@ing awesome! the moment I saw this character pull off his maneuvers, I was especially amazed and baffled at the amount of impression there is in his face and attack scheme. I loved the usage of the blade arms and the overall brutal tactics; for a nomad character, he's a very good one at that. 408. Rain (Mortal Kombat) - Awesome rain-induced attacks; and of course, he's a purple ninja... 409. Smoke (Mortal Kombat) - Eh, what can I say... ninja, smoke attacks, awesome... well, the human version is awesome... not so much the cyborg one. 410. Quan Chi (Mortal Kombat) - Interesting concept overall; his design, mannerism, and overall evil is well observed. His role is very wicked and his sorcery serves its purpose well. 411. Count Dooku (Star Wars: Revenge of the Sith) 412. Grand Admiral Thrawn (Star Wars: Expanded Universe) I have hundreds of other favorite characters, but this should be sufficient for the time being. |

I have a forum called called Frieza Force which you can join, created back in 2004, long before the inception of the newly entitled organization in 2015 of the same name. Anyone interested in villains and their henchmen will most definitely love this forum. The concentration of my forum is Frieza and his awesome henchmen as well as many other villains from other shows, and numerous character profiles.
