Lost_All_Senses 01/31/23 2:53:19 PM #3:	This is an anti-fun argument. Sometimes stuff can just be there to be fun and entertaining. It's literally why we started indulging in the media in the first place. People just get less fun as they age and then they get irritable instead of give in. I'm not immune to this myself.

A_Good_Boy 01/31/23 3:53:56 PM #16:	If you removed Bulma from the dragonbalk franchise then you'd have a fundamentally different story. So according to TC's logic she must be important. If Goku didn't exist then his family would have just sent Raditz and he would have hit his head instead. So therefore Goku is a superfluous (useless) character. --- Who is?
