Dragon Ball’s Goku Problem Explained
Itiswhatitisnot25In this video, I share how I feel about why Goku seems so different across eras, from classic Dragon Ball and Z, to GT, Super, and Daima. I look at how changes in canon, power systems, and storytelling priorities have reshaped Goku’s character, training philosophy, and sense of earned growth. From martial arts and experience, to transformations, rituals, and divine techniques, Dragon Ball no longer values the same things it once did — and that’s where a lot of the confusion comes from for me. This video is simply my perspective on how Dragon Ball’s identity has shifted over time, why modern Goku can feel like a reboot rather than a continuation, and why earlier versions of the character still resonate more strongly with me. That’s when Dragon Ball works best — when skill matters as much as strength. Let me know which version of Goku you connect with most in the comments.24 views -
Yamcha’s Wasted Potential | Dragon Ball’s Most Underrated Fighter
Itiswhatitisnot25Yamcha is often treated as a joke in the Dragon Ball series, but beneath the memes is a character with massive untapped potential. In this video, I break down why Yamcha worked so well as a martial artist, how power scaling and transformations pushed him into irrelevance, and why his adaptability, strategy, and technique made him one of the most flexible characters in the franchise. From his battle IQ and unique abilities like the Spirit Ball, to the way Dragon Ball shifted its focus away from skill and toward raw power, this is a look at how Yamcha became overlooked — and why his story is still worth revisiting.

Tien Shinhan’s Untapped Potential | Technique Over Raw Power in Dragon Ball
Itiswhatitisnot25Dragon Ball has always rewarded raw power and transformations, but not every fighter was built that way. In this video, we take a deep dive into Tien Shinhan’s untapped potential, breaking down his mastery of techniques, battle IQ, discipline, and adaptability — and why those traits were slowly sidelined as the series shifted toward power scaling. We also explore Chiaotzu’s overlooked psychic abilities, why his true strength was never physical combat, and how his potential as a psychic and magic-based fighter could have made him one of the most dangerous characters in the series. From Tien’s early dominance in Dragon Ball to hypothetical training under gods, Otherworld, alien races, and advanced techniques, this video asks one key question: What if Dragon Ball had valued mastery as much as raw power?

Devil May Cry: The Two Dantes Explained (Canon vs Non-Canon Theory)
Itiswhatitisnot25In today’s video, Other Helmet Guy breaks down one of the biggest Devil May Cry theories: does Dante actually exist in two different timelines? By comparing the original Dante path (DMC3 → DMC1 → Anime → DMC2) to the modern Canon route (DMC3 → DMC4 → DMC5), we explore how the character has been rewritten, reshaped, and divided into two completely different versions. The non-Canon Dante becomes stronger, darker, and more isolated—eventually entering the SMT universe and continuing his journey independently. Meanwhile, the Canon Dante is locked into a repeating rivalry with Vergil, a storyline that heavily influences Nero and shifts the focus toward Vergil’s legacy rather than Dante’s own development. This video looks at: 🔥 Dante’s personality shift 🔥 The original vs modern storyline 🔥 Vergil’s impact on the Canon rewrite 🔥 Nero’s role as the new protagonist 🔥 Why the two Dantes feel like separate characters 🔥 What this means for the future of the series This is all just theory, not official fact—just my own interpretation of the lore. What do you think? Should Devil May Cry stick to the Canon Dante? Or should the original timeline continue in some form?7 views -
