Goku may have made a mistake by not understanding his son’s drive in the Cell saga, but by God if he doesn’t understand his son now.

This man understands Gohan better than the fandom itself

(They’re talking about Gohan here btw)

longtime dc fan and i think a lot of people are angry because alex is obviously one of the most culturally relevant instances of misogyny in media. that being said being more culturally relevant doesn’t mean it’s the worst instance of misogyny and i think bumble definitely experiences more profound misogyny in the way the actual content is presented, if that makes sense

I get you, and that's a charitable way of looking at it.

I think what's rustling my jimmies is that like, there was a couple of WC fans being mildly dismissive of Alex in that note minefield, after dozens of comments of "fuck you how could you let the fridge woman lose" and "Bumble didn't deserve to win ANY rounds" and "how could A CAT experience misogyny." But then WE get blamed for the toxicity because THEY were butthurt that the Funny Cat People have the 'audacity' to win something they feel entitled to.

Like, we've gotta be endlessly charitable as we get openly insulted because they're upset about Alex losing, a very well-known and culturally relevant character with a legacy so massive we have a whole term named after her. But condemnations of "She's just a cat, letting WC into this poll was a mistake, Bumble can't even be a victim of misogyny" only started coming around once I started talking about it.

as if it's OUR fault people got passive-aggressive or even OPENLY aggressive towards us, and that we're "just as bad" for retaliating

But like you said, it's not a "Most Culturally Relevant Misogyny" tournament, it's a "Canon Misogyny Victims" tournament. And you're not even supposed to give a shit that Bumble died. The fat, woman abuse victim is beaten to death by a dictator, and your takeaway is meant to be, "It's so sad that Clear Sky is being blamed for murdering her, now they're all preparing for self-defense against a homicidal maniac, oh nooo :("

And I think that DOES make her deserve the win here! Alex is a MARTYR. Everyone with a brain agrees what happens to her is bad. It happened in her canon because it was bad. We talk about her and keep her memory alive. Bumble gets dismissed entirely out of hand because she's "just a cat in a kid's book" as if that doesn't make it worse, and as if the kid's book didn't treat a domestic abuse survivor like a moron for even asking for help.

Anyway, just to reiterate, I love DC fans. It's not all of you guys. Alex was done dirty and deserves justice-- and it's even kind of a shame that all she became is "The Fridge Woman." I haven't even heard people talk about how she was a wary, responsible person who was still ready to rock with Kyle's new weird glowstick powers, or that she was a journalist, or that she just got brought back in another edition as a Green Lantern only to be revealed as an illusion and re-absorbed back into Kyle's mind. Nope. Even her fans just remember her as The Fridge Woman.

#She wasn't even ONLY brought back as a green lantern btw she also came back as....#full disclosure I'm not a DC fan this is from My Best Friend + Wiki Education #...as a cool ass evil zombie black lantern #Only for Kyle to have to put her down like Old Yeller #Because he can't handle her Zomgirl Swag #How cunty of me would it be actually if. IF. Bumble sweeps the whole tournament and I go back and write whole essays for--#how each one of her opponents were worthy adversaries and explain exactly how deep the misogyny of canon went against them #Bones ''King of Women Appreciation'' Fall #Especially Chichi actually. If it had been Alex vs Chichi I would have gone to bat for Chichi.#Chichi was done dirtier than Alex. And also I would go PRETTY hard for my girl Android 18 #And ACTUALLY? One of the WORST victims of DB's misogyny? Don't @ me? Gine. Goku's mom #Behold my race of evil monkey space soldiers and how their violent nature has been exploited by a galactic capitalist dictator #Look at how in-depth I go to suggest them overcoming their battle-centric nature and show how in a different context this can be--#--applied for heroic ends #Watch the death of my main character's father and show how his last thought was comforted only by visions of how his son would one day--#overcome the dictator and avenge his death #Only for that to have been subverted because Goku didn't actually give a shit about revenge. Frieza simply threatened his friends.#NEVERMIND!! HIS MOM COULDN'T HAVE BEEN BLOODTHIRSTY BECAUSE SHE'S WOMAN #HOW CAN YOU FEEL BAD FOR THE DEATH OF A WOMAN. A WHOLE PLANET. IF HER HUSBAND DOESN'T LOVE HER AND SHE ISN'T A PERFECT LOVING MOTHER #SHUT UP SHUT UP. GINE KILL THIS MAN #10000 GUNS IN GINE'S HANDS #ouuugh and her husband saved her sooo many times on their expeditions because she sucks and thats why they fell in love :) PERISH. DIE #BAD TORIYAMA. BAD.#JAIL FOR TORIYAMA 10000 YEARS #And Saiyans apparently didn't even really develop romantic bonds between mates but nuuuuh #Gotta have these two be a perfect husbandwife pair with their little nuclear family #Anyway.

Goku: Raises his son with love in peace for four years, the first person Gohan reaches out for when he's scared. Gives his son Senzu and Kinto'un priority when he's injured.

Piccolo: Kidnaps and beats the shit out of a four-year-old who just lost his father for ten months.

Goku: Dies to protect Gohan twice.

Piccolo: Dies to protect Gohan once.

"Piccolo is Gohan's real dad!"

#Dragon Ball #Dragon Ball Z #DBZ #Goku #Piccolo #Gohan #Piccolo is the big brother #Goku is a good dad #This is not Piccolo slander #Just absurd that the fandom decided Piccolo's one death somehow absolves all he did to Gohan #Whereas Goku. who died twice. gets AbSeNtEe fAtHeR bs #Y'all really think a boy raised by Grandpa Gohan is a bad dad

debunking the 'Goku is a bad dad' allegations

Once again, FOR THE PEOPLE IN THE BACK WHO STILL BELIEVE GOKU IS A BAD DAD FOR SOME REASON 1. Goku died twice to save his son. In the Saiyan saga, when dealing with Raditz and in the Cell saga where Cell was gonna self-destruct to kill everyone and destroy the Earth, but he sacrificed himself. 2. Goku never once forced Gohan to be a fighter. He wanted Gohan to continue his studies and he apologized for making Gohan fight again in the manga. 3. Goku trained Gohan for one year for the Cell Games 4. Again with the senzu bean incident because people keep bringing this back from the dead MULTIPLE TIMES, he had faith in Gohan, knowing he was the only one who can defeat Cell. And when Piccolo talked some sense into Goku, telling him Gohan's not a fighter, he realized he made a mistake, and went to help his son. 5. Goku decided to stay dead for 7 years because everyone was after him, and he didn't want it to happen again, so he stayed dead so his son can focus on his studies and further his education 6. Diving into the DBS territory (even though the series is rough, writing-wise), in the Goku Black arc, he was rightfully furious to hear Goku Black killed his wife and his son.

Bonus: There were nice family moments in both DBZ and DBS where Goku was with his family spending time together and having fun. In my opinion, Goku wasn't a perfect dad, but he's nowhere near a bad one. He was more adapt to getting stronger to fight stronger enemies because that's how he is, but it doesn't mean he doesn't care about his friends and family. I think the whole 'bad father allegations' thing happened was due to the fans being used to TeamFourStar's 'Goku is a bad dad' jokes WHICH IS A FAN BASED PARODY, NOT THE CANONICAL STORY they ended up forgetting Goku's real character as a whole. The same goes for the 'Special Beam Cannon" joke. ONLY THE REAL DBZ FANS KNOW IT'S MAKANKOSAPPO AND IT NEEDED TO BE SAID that myth where Dragon Balls being unable to read or watch the original series is starting to be more true as time goes by. here's the thread debunking the allegations and slander towards the homie Goku.

Unsung/Underappreciated Heroes of the Android Saga

These are the characters I feel don't get enough recognition in the narrative (or even fandom) for their actions in the android and cell saga.

Future Bulma

I think Trunks is praised more by other characters for piloting the time machine and saving the timeline than Future Bulma is for designing and building it. Especially considering the dire circumstances. I honestly don't remember Future Bulma being talked about much for her miraculous feat. I have been watching a ton of clips lately and my memory is still blank. Also, this woman is a great mom! She raised Trunks very well :)

Present Bulma

She made the remote that could have ended the cell saga before things got worse. However, Krillin literally stomped all over her hard work when he decided to simp for 18.

Piccolo

Goku may be the best fighter but Piccolo is the leader. He was the one who relayed the information about the androids to the others. He was the one leading the effort against Imperfect Cell. He was the one who fought the best out of the Z fighters against the Cell Jrs. Even better than Vegeta and Trunks. And rallied Tien and Yamcha to defend Goku. I don't think Piccolo is acknowledged enough for being the voice of reason on the team.

Tien Shinhan

Forget the epic tri beam against Semi-Perfect Cell. This man deserves some credit for going to help Piccolo even though he stood no chance against the androids. Good thing he was there otherwise 18 would have been Cell food way sooner. What a role model!

And now...the true MVP of the Cell games. The person who arguably helped Gohan more than Goku or Piccolo ever did in that battle...I present to you...

ANDROID SIXTEEN 👑

Android 16 deserved the world. He is the only one to jump in to help Gohan. Granted Piccolo and Goku were about to as well. But he did not have to have a dad quarrel first before he took action! And he helped Gohan to unleash his potential. Unlike Goku who just threw Gohan to the wolves and misunderstood the nature of his son's power, 16 was able to connect with Gohan calmly on an emotional level. He understood Gohan's gentle nature and urged him to use his power to protect people. A true MVP. Too bad Gohan likely destroyed his processor chip during his power-up :(. 16 you left us too soon...

#dbz #dragonball z #android saga #cell saga #future bulma #bulma briefs #piccolo #cell games #android 16 #tien shinhan #krillin #son goku #son gohan #bulma is the queen of dragonball #krillin critical #son goku critical #goku is not a bad father here as he learnt his mistake

Piccolo understanding Gohan potential.

Piccolo to Kid Gohan "There's a great power inside of you waiting to be unlocked, but it's up to you to bring it out. Use it, rely on it, and if you can do that, I guarantee you'll live through this"

Kid Gohan to Piccolo,"but I'm afraid"

Piccolo, "You'll laugh at your fears when you find out who you really are"
