What is it?

The 2015 Japanese anime (animated) television series Dragon Ball Super Stupid (Seasons 1 -5).

What is it about?

This is how Wikipedia describes this anime television show:

Dragon Ball Super is a Japanese anime television series produced by Toei Animation that began airing on July 5, 2015 on Fuji TV.[1]

It is the first Dragon Ball television series featuring a new storyline in 18 years.

Storywise, the series retells the events of the last two Dragon Ball Z films, Battle of Gods and Resurrection ‘F’, which themselves follow the events of Dragon Ball Z.

Afterward, the series proceeds to tell an original story about the exploration of other universes, the reemergence of Future Trunks, and new threats to the Future Earth known as Goku Black and a Supreme Kai from Universe Ten named Zamasu.

Later on, Goku, Vegeta, Gohan, Krillin, Android 17, Android 18, Piccolo, Tien, Master Roshi, and the undead Frieza participate in a universal tournament held by Present Grand Zenō and Future Grand Zenō to decide the fate of multiple universes.

If they lose in the universal tournament then Universe Seven will be erased by Present Grand Zenō and Future Grand Zenō.

My Thoughts

My brother GC and I watched this on Toonami.

While the animation is glossier and more modern, my brother GC and I like the older animation of the older series better than this most of the time, and we liked Dragon Ball Z better than this.

Dragon Ball Super should not have been made in our opinion, it is mostly pointless, and it is too comedic; but there are a few moments here and there that are okay, like some of the music, and a few of the rare serious moments.

I call it Dragon Ball Stupid, I am ashamed to have once been a Dragon Ball fan, I am glad that years ago Cowboy Bebop came along and destroyed the Dragon Ball franchise for me; and ever since that day years ago when I first saw part of Cowboy Bebop episode 1, I stopped liking Dragon Ball, and I finally saw it for what it really was.

Please do not waste your time watching Dragon Ball Super, watch one of the older Dragon Ball series or watch a better anime like Cowboy Bebop or Ghost In The Shell: Stand Alone Complex et cetera.

The end,

Dragon Ball Power Levels | Napping & Sleep Paralysis?

Source: YouTube

I only recorded part of my last dream and so my other dreams are forgotten, and later today after work I took a nap but I did not record my dreams or experiences during this but I do barely remember a little bit of my nap.

Dream 1

All that I can remember of this dream is that I was helping a patron with maybe light-color skin (maybe a man, but I could be wrong), I assume that we were at The BP Library and that I was there working, but I am not sure.

Goku Gets A Power Level Challenge

I only got a few hours of sleep last night, but I still had some dreams and managed to remember barely part of three even though I had more.

Dream 1

This dream involved my male cousin DE showing up somewhere outside like he wanted something, I was inside, and I remember complaining to someone about him and not wanting him around right now.

American Gods & A Small Town In Louisiana Riots / Protests Against The Donald Trump Administration / United States Government?

I am not sure if this is one or two or three dreams from last night, so I will type them separately, but some important details are missing because I had to get up quickly to get ready for work because I slept longer than I should have.

Dream 1

My memory of this dream from last night is a bit unclear so I will make some assumptions during certain parts of the dream, and all that I can remember of this dream from last night is that maybe some early parts of the dream involved things from the book American Gods and the television show American Gods that possibly played a role in other parts of this dream as tensions built.

Running With A Pistol | Dragon Ball Z And A Fashion Show And A Missile (Bomb) Attack?

The end of my last dream was so sudden and surprising and confusing that I woke up by accident, I immediately tried to organize my memory of the end of the dream so that I could voice record it, but this and some other things caused me to forget most of my other dreams and even most of my last dream including some of the parts that I had remembered when I first woke up but forget right before I could voice record them.

Dream 1

I did not remember part of this dream until later this morning, unfortunately all that I can remember of this dream is the end of the dream out of context, and so it does not make much sense because I forgot most of the dream.

It was evening or night because it was dark, I was now on foot at a college campus where I lived because I lived in one of the college dorms or apartments, I had a silver and maybe black pistol in my pocket that I had possibly recently shot but I am not sure who or what I shot or shot at or why, and now I was on the run trying to get back to my dorm or apartment to hide hoping that the police would not find me or figure out who I was or find the gun or have their dogs smell the gun powder on me.

I wish that I could remember what happened but I can not so this does not make sense to me, I just know that I needed to escape and hide and hopefully that would work, and I remember running through a back alley that was a combination of the alley behind The E House and my aunt JE’s house and The C Dorm and the MS University apartments and some fictional college dorms and apartments and their parking lots.

I reached the area behind the college apartments and dorms where I lived but I heard and saw the police driving up in police cars with their lights and sirens on to block the front and they were probably slowly surrounding the neighborhood, and I assumed that they would stop to question and search each person they saw outside so I stopped to try to figure out what to do.

I saw some students walking to the front of the buildings but I waited to see if they would be stopped and questioned and searched and to see if the police had any dogs or not, the situation seemed bad and I was not sure what to do, and I thought about my options but that is all that I can remember of this dream.

Dream 2

The end of this dream was probably inspired by this video called Used & Betrayed – 100 Years of US Troops as Lab Rats by Empire Files that I watched yesterday:

All that I can remember of this dream is that it started outside during the day and I remember a battle going on between some characters from the Japanese anime Dragon Ball Z like Goku and Vegeta et cetera versus some unknown threats, and I was there and maybe helping or just watching as they flew around fighting and using their powers.

Goku was using a special power that made him bigger and more dense and heavy so that he could take more damage and be harder to knock around, this was working, but he ended up getting too tired and needed to rest so someone else and I had to help him leave the battle to rest.

We took him to a parking lot full of people who seemed to be from Japan, they recognized Goku and they were excited and wanted to approach him, but they respected him and gave him space and time to rest on the sidewalk in the shade.

While Goku was resting I walked inside one of the buildings and a fashion show was going to take place soon, I knew some of the fashion élite and where their reserved seats were, but I decided to not approach them because they would probably be embarrassed to be seen with me.

I walked to the public seating area and I saw a man who looked like Swoozie (Adande Thorne) from YouTube sitting on a row alone one seat away from the right entrance to this row, and so I was going to sit on this row because it was mostly empty but Swoozie started acting like a jerk.

Before I could sit down he was looking forward angrily without looking at me like he was better than me and he said that this was taken, he seemed to be waiting on his girlfriend to sit in one of the seats next to him, and so I asked which seat was taken but he continued looking forward and once again said that this was taken without explaining.

Every time I tried to talk he would interrupt me without looking at me and say the same thing, the row in front of him was mostly full of some people who I recognized as people from Eastside who I knew and they knew me, and they all seemed to be family and more people were arriving so I did not think that they would have enough room left for me.

One of them was a man with dark-brown skin with black hair who reminded me of a former schoolmate of mine and/or B a male cousin of my male cousin ME, he was looking forward as well and he also looked angry, and he seemed to be angry at how Swoozie was treating me and how I was putting up with it.

He seemed to be looking forward trying to control himself from punching Swoozie out of his chair, I continued to stand in the aisle trying to get Swoozie to answer my question so I could sit down, and eventually the man in the row in front of him angrily told me that I could sit in the only empty seat left on his row which was next to him.

I asked him if he was sure and I told him that I did not want to take up that seat from one of his family members, he angrily repeated himself, and so I thanked him and I sat down next to him.

He probably angrily told me that I should have stood up for myself against Swoozie and just sat where I wanted to, I then talked with him and his wife who was wearing a nice dress and some of his family members as we waited for the fashion show to start, but then something strange happened where the man and his wife were sitting on a couch instead of the seats and I told them that I needed to use this couch to launch it somewhere and somehow I hoped that this would save the world; which makes no sense but it was probably connected with the Dragon Ball Z battle that was still going on outside. 😀

I told them that I would buy them another couch and that I would buy the wife a new dress, they agreed to let me launch the couch, and so I sat on the couch alone and somehow set it up to launch; and I launched myself and the couch in the sky or something but I can not remember this part.

Oddly what I do remember is seeing part of an episode of a television show that was like the television series Girlfriends, and I remember seeing a woman with light-brown skin with long curly dark-brown hair with blue eyes who looked like a better-looking version of the actress Tracee Ellis Ross on this episode.

The dream then jumped to me landing or crashing the couch in the field outside my parent’s yard, the man and his wife and some of his family ran over to greet me and see if my plan to save the world worked and to see if I was okay, and we briefly talked about the television episode that I saw.

As we were talking we saw at least three objects fly over us, maybe two helicopters and maybe a white object, and they flew in the direction toward the street where my uncle IC lives.

To make things even more strange we then saw a small maybe white and red maybe single engine airplane fly over us but then it started to spin out of control like it was going to crash near us so we started to run toward my parent’s yard, the airplane crashed in the field to the right of us and maybe somewhat exploded sending the propeller flying over us toward my parent’s yard so we stopped to see where it would land so that it would not hit us, but then we saw a short fat missile fly toward it that looked like a small version of the fat man atomic bomb and it was shot by an old maybe World War II airplane that then flew over us in the direction where the missile and other aircraft had went and I imagined or saw in my mind that this airplane being flown by an old man with white skin with gray and white hair who looked like he was probably a World War II military veteran.

We thought that the missile (bomb) would hit the propeller but it passed it without hitting it and it headed toward the direction where the other aircraft had flown and the propeller fell in my parent’s yard, and soon there was an explosion in the distance in the direction where the missile had went and we feared that the missile (bomb) was possibly a nuclear bomb or chemical bomb or biological bomb so we started running to my parent’s yard to run inside one of the houses and I was running toward a fictional house where the no-longer-abandoned house should be so maybe that was my fictional house.

The explosion probably caused a slight flash and burst of wind so I thought that a shock wave would kill us and that radiation or something would hit us but it did not but I did see some almost atom bomb-like smoke (clouds) maybe or something from the explosion, before I could reach the house there was a secondary explosion or attack from the first one that sent incendiary (flare-like) things on the ground blocking my path to the other house and blocking the back and sides of my parent’s house.

Maybe an incendiary-like fire-like substance started to spread through the yard and/or a third stage explosion or attack possibly released an unknown liquid substance that made the fire (whatever) worse and/or started another type of attack (risk), we were confused and had no idea if this was a government (military) experiment or an invasion or an advanced terrorist attack, and this seemed to be planned and like our paths were being blocked intentionally.

I was confused and we were blocked on all sides except for one, I was not sure if we were exposed to radiation and/or chemicals and/or some other forms of attack, and I was not sure where we could go to be safe so we stood there trying to decide what to do as things got worse around us.

This caused me to accidentally wake up like maybe I subconsciously tested to see if I could wake myself up to see if this was a dream or not, sometimes in dreams I accidentally wake myself up if I get too panicked and/or scared and/or excited, because long ago I learned out to wake myself from dreams and this got easier and easier the more I did it until now I accidentally do it.

The end,
