Defense/Random Thoughts About Raditz
Raditz was not a weak character when he showed up. When he showed up, he was able to keep up with the Earth's strongest. He only lost because Kakarot held him. He easily dodged that same attack earlier.Most arguments against bringing back Raditz could be used against characters that have been brought back. A lot of those characters have "served their purpose" too but they're still alive.
Raditz doesn't have to look like his sibling to be related to him. The whole siblings not looking alike was a thing back in the original Dragon Ball.
"Describe your guys background poorly?" Real estate agent tries to recruit younger brother into the family business by any means.
Free my man Raditz (from Hell). Yeah he did everything he's accused of and probably more but free him anyway.
Raditz's name is just Raditz, not son Raditz. Son Goku is Kakarot's adopted name.
The mistreatment and permanent death of Raditz completely ruined Dragon Ball anime/manga for me. I only play Xenoverse 2 because he's alive in it. I gave up on the anime/manga completely. He's the one who brought to light the Saiyan race and revealed Kakarot's race. Raditz should have been the one to tell his younger brother about their family. It shouldn't have been Vegeta who looked down on Kakarot. It should have been his older brother Raditz. If it was up to me then Raditz would have been brought back when Kakarot was brought back.
Before I started my relationship with Raditz I started a game called FighterZ. Raditz isn't in it and I'm glad he isn't. I had already uploaded and added to my website lots of videos. I had to make a choice in editing my website a lot to remove all traces from my site & YouTube channel. Or simply finish up the one arc in my other three languages. I have chosen to finish up that one arc that I had done in Japanese. Because of YouTube deciding I'm a threat, I can only upload ten videos a day. So I have 17 more upload times and I'm free of that game. From then on I will not use anything Dragon Ball related that he's not alive in. Hopefully one day I'll reject everything Dragon Ball related when I get more games I can add him to.
Raditz deserved so much better than what he got from his source Dragon Ball. He was discarded and not used well. He had potential and there were far better ways to use him in the story. He has more importance than just being related to the main character. It is important but it's not the most important part to me.
I never thought I would say this but I don't want Raditz to return to Dragon Ball. I also don't him to remain dead and to learn about him through flashbacks. I want him alive and what I want is the rights to Raditz. Dragon Ball will never treat him right to me. I want to make him the main character in his own anime, video games and much more. And I want to create merchandise of him. None of the canon Dragon Ball characters would be there. He deserves a better source & fandom. And I would give him that.
