Can we just let "Goku came back because of fan/editorial demand" die. The buu arc was Toriyama fully unrestricted in every sense of the word, Goku came back because he didn't like writing Gohan as the protagonist.

Already commented on that. See post 59.

Even the 16/17/18/Cell stuff was because of his ex-editor he didn't even work with anymore going all "nah that's lame", not corpo demands

And who do you think that editor worked for? It wasn't Toriyama they answered to. Editorial generally works in the publisher's best interests. As mentioned several times now, neither industry is about creative freedom unless you get into indies.

-Frankly, anime and manga piracy are often synonymous with those communities, not really the case with comics.

Yup, for every pirated comics site there are several dozen manga and anime sites in existence. Though that's likely due to the fact that we weren't able to get our hands on many of them legally until relatively recently.
