It's not the manga that revived literally everyone who ever died. Including people who totally existed but we'd never heard about.

In any case, how can someone unknowingly be half-Quincy? I was given to understand that Quincy was a profession one had to train towards. Wouldn't that be like saying, "So I found out the other day that I'm actually half-banker."


You want me to spoil it further?

The most I can say while still remaining unspoilery is that it's kind of unclear right now, there are implications going both ways.

Rage at Victor Surge selling Slender Man to a third party company


Wait, when did this happen? More importantly, how much did he make?

It would've bothered me if they had actually been revived to be alive alive, but I actually like the way they did it.

Gotcha. He's not quarter-fullbringer to, is he?

This has apparently been a known thing for a while (article linked below is from 14 Nov 2012). The game Faceless got held up (and is currently indefinitely postponed) because of this issue:

"'The permission from Victor Surge/Eric Knudsen [i.e., his approval of Faceless] is fine but since he has an option holder we'll need their permission too.' An option holder is not the trademark holder, but owns the contract on an IP [intellectual property] and is able to license it out for a film, TV, book, video game, or other endeavor." (emphasis mine)

As far as I'm concerned, any form of posthumous revival is just asking for trouble. But aside from that, they are even better than when they were alive. Limitless energy, immortal, indestructible body...if you put your trust in the hands of the right user, you can be revived with basically no downside. It rivals Dragonball Z for stupidly broken method of resurrection.

I'm not really sure how any of this stuff counts. For example, a recent chapter said that Quincies and humans count as separate entities, even though Quincies are just humans with special powers.

Explain how that's broken.

Well seriously. How many times can Goku give his life for the good of humanity? He's kind of an absentee father, if you ask me.

I didn't really care when that happened. I had already had almost all of my interest sucked out by the post-timeskip events by that point.

 		The Dragonballs themselves theoretically had limits, but the problem was, he proved that he could pull a new set of Dragonballs out of his ass at any given time, thereby voiding any problems that the current ones had. For reasons I don't understand, DBZ fans often like to argue that no it was a totally balanced story, but we all knew that none of the characters were ever going to truly "die." Even when dead, Goku was basically just relegated to a state similar to most of the cast of Bleach.

Heh, I'm a DBZ fan and have no problem admitting that death lost all meaning post-Freeza. Bit 'em in the ass, to, 'cause the reason they came up with to keep Goku dead after Cell was a total asspull.
"Bad guys always come after me, so if I stay dead, they won't find me!"
"The fact that your plan makes no sense aside, you don't feel any responsibility to your unemployed wife or adolescent son to be there for-"
"Bye guys!"

The way I look at it though, it's not so much about the death as it is they don't want people to suffer, which is why I think they still mourn death in that universe. That's just my theory, to my knowlege none of the characters ever vocalized such a sentiment.

I just would have had Goten be the new hero who defeated Majin Buu-- or better yet, Vegeta.

It should've just ended with the Cell saga. Gohan getting the torch passed to him (with a better reason for Goku being gone), and Vegeta getting what he deserved, losing his will to fight at Goku's death, but surviving regardless.

He's a cool villain but he should have been in a better story arc.

 		I don't know, when Hercule taught him right from wrong & his adopted dog died, it hit me right in the feelings.

Wait, why didn't they just use the Dragon Balls on the dog?
