I miss her so much (OG DB Mai)

I wish DBS didn't do her dirty and she was her old self as the stoic and insecure member of the Pilaf Gang.

I hope I captured her beauty in a more realistic style

Helloooo Mongolian Mai truthers 🇲🇳🇲🇳🇲🇳 (I may be the only one)

One of my January 2018 resolutions was to get completely caught up in Dragon Ball Super (partly in preparation for the release of Dragon Ball FighterZ), and today I started doing just that. I just finished watching the Goku Black arc from beginning to end. While it was very cool with an exciting climax (but with kind of a disappointing deus ex machina resolution), Trunks and Mai stole the show for me.

Maybe it’s because I’m older with different tastes in entertainment from when I was a kid watching Dragon Ball Z on Toonami. Maybe it’s because My Little Pony makes up the bulk of my current interest in media. Whatever the reason, I found Trunks and Mai’s story to be FAR more interesting than anything else that was happening on-screen.

Story and characterization have never been Dragon Ball’s strongest suits (let’s face it -- it’s all about the action). But this arc did wonders for not only one of my favorite characters in the entire franchise but also a side character that I expected to be permanently relegated to comic relief. And it introduced me to a ship that I never would’ve considered before but am now 100% in support of.
