I just really find the fact that the creator of dragonball has stated that Goku canonically cannot feel any kind of love, just ‘companionship’, to be a extremely interesting fact. Like, if his family died he’d be like ‘No!’ and then he’d get over it fairly quickly as if they were only just acquaintances. Same goes with the rest of his friends.
The series creator apparently doesn’t like the anime’s portrayal of Goku. They always cast Goku as a hero, when in the manga he’s really only ‘saving people’ as a side bonus that comes with fighting a stronger opponent. He doesn’t purposefully go in to save anyone unless there is a fight happening at the scene.
So, If Goku hadn’t hit his head, he would’ve just been another Raditz. And it also explains why he’s rather cruel towards Gohan and neglectful towards Chichi.
Apparently Vegeta is the actual exception to his own species. He actually genuinely loves his family, -a rare trait only Goku’s mother was proven to have- whereas Goku is apparently literally unable to have those feelings. It’s kind of ironic; Vegeta is probably the one that would be the most ashamed and resentful to admit he has those kinds of feelings.
hello! I recently found this rad app called “CamScanner”, a mobile app for android and iOS
what does this app do? well, basically it imitates a scanner, so even if you don’t have one, you can take real cool pictures of your drawings!
for this to work, i suggest you take a picture of your entire paper / sketchbook / etc. The app will automatically crop your picture and come out with something like this:
(sometimes it wont be too accurate, but that can be easily fixed by moving the frame yourself)
once scanned, the app will make it so your drawing looks like this:
(the app will have some presets, so you might want to mess around with those. OR you can mess with the settings yourself to get a look you desire)
this can be really helpful if you plan to color your traditional piece on a computer, or something similar.
this can even work with colored drawing, if you’d like!

edited with CamScanner:
if you mess with the settings yourself, i bet you could get the picture to look better, as i did this with the presets.
