Not DBZ more like Matrix: The Revolution ;D Oh c'mon, the Neo/Agent Smith battle was as close to a DBZ battle as live action can get.

I kinda fancied Matrix a lot more than DZB For me it's the other way around, but that's cool. And dang it, here we are getting off topic again. So yeah, um, Monique and Wade should've gotten more screen time, consarnit!

Kigo and Rori for the loss, then. FOR THE LOSS~! You can't handle the win inherent in those pairings

I'd change K/R for Kigo. ... .. . WHAT!? What did you expect me to say? I'm all for it, Kigo and Rori for the win And Avinashtyagi continues to bolster his reputation amongst the K/R populace. Luckily his dedication to Ron is the only thing keeping him from being labeled public enemy number one and staving off the order of execution.

Are you trying to insinuate something about me...? Or can you simply not believe that someone might have a logical and rational reason for opposing such a lifestyle? Anyway, this could devolve into a nasty (and off-topic) flame war, so I'd suggest we drop this specific part of the conversation.

Hmmm, one thing I'd change, I'd bring back some under-used characters like General Simms (from Rufus VS Commodore Puddles) and give 'em some justice or a chance to shine.

I wanted more on how Kim aquired her skills. She didn't pick up those mad skills at the local dojo I'm thinking. Agreed, this was one of my big questions for the series as well. Would like to know the answer but it doesn't ruin it for me to not know.

*Grumbles at the Kigo shippers' responses* Scoutess, do you mean more time with Wade and Monique as characters? Or do you mean more Wade/Monique shipping?

Asside from more episodes... ...if you could change one thing about Kim Possible, what would it be? My honest answer, nothing. I think its alright the way it is.

*Grumbles at the Kigo shippers' responses* Scoutess, do you mean more time with Wade and Monique as characters? Or do you mean more Wade/Monique shipping? Mostly the separate, non-shippy one, though now that you mention it, a little more one-sides crushing would have been hilarious.

Responding to a situation absolutely perfectly doesn't make you an interesting character. Maybe if Yori had shown some level concern, about Ron being with Kim, she would've shown more depth, thus more believable. I'm not asking for this to be over the top, its just that Yori's chemistry with Ron is really the only definitive reason I had to care about her. Once her chance with Ron was gone so was my interest in her. They completely botched the chance they had to give Yori a little depth, by having her respond to the Ron/Kim situation like a Mary Sue, her being totally fine with them smacked of convenience. At this point she was just a two-dimensional character. I disagree, it showed that she is more concerned about others than herself, truly a deep and wise person, the perfect choice to take over as Master of Yamanuchi once Sensei passes on I find flawed human beings to be more interesting than those who react to situations conveniently. And once again, why am I supposed to care about her just because she makes Kim & Ron's romantic problems easier? My prime reason for even caring about Yori from the start, was because she was a potential romantic interest for Ron, THATS IT. There was nothing else about her that remotely made her stand out. Her transition from romantic interest to plain old friend absolutely sucked. Once she revealed she was fine with Kim and Ron, her chemistry with Kim and Ron was gone. She showed no range of emotions throughout Big Bother, if I were a hardcore Ron/Yori shipper (which I'm not) I would be absolutely ticked that this news had no effect Yori at all, the news seemingly made it feel like her feelings towards Ron meant nothing to her, when in her first 2 appearances, she is seen hitting on Ron. IMO Kim felt a hell of a lot more human than Yori did. Why? Because she actually showed concern about Yori being around Ron. Thus making her feel flawed, or more to the point HUMAN, something Yori didn't feel like. In conclusion why do feel Yori became a dull character? Because they took away her defining feature (her feelings towards Ron) and the writers didn't give me any other reason to care about her.

"The Jappanese have the power of Honor" - the words used to discribe the Jappanese national abilities in Rise of Nations. Basicly, the Jappanese are VERY honorible, for example, in the Kabuki play, 'The Gift' the Warrior Bah-low and the daughter of a mayor, Titi, were going to marry, but neither wanted to, meanwhile, Roe-nye, Titi's love intrest (both ways) were worried about it. Roe-nye looked for the perfect gift, getting help from a wise old man named Tu-bah (pronounced like the intsturment) said 'Follow your heart', and basicly, at the wedding, he barges in with 'the perfect gift', and basicly, it was what Tu-bah said to do, so Bah-low, being a honorible warrior, but also very friendly and honorible, allowed Roe-nye to marry Titi, as he felt that because Roe-nye went through so much troubble to find a gift to prove his honor, that he deserved to be with her. In short, Yori is basicly like Bah-low, she had intrest in Ron, but she HONORIBLY respected that he wanted to be with Kim and vice-versa. Showing she is as honorible as many Jappanese people. Something that shows their character, and gives them strength, as they act well. Yes, WWII, Pearl Harbor, how they treated POWs is still in our minds today, but remember, the Jappanese weren't in civilian homes and doing this at the time, they were on the warpath, and were VERY strong in a fight, even with the lack of armor their mechanized equipment had. Also, we must remember that at the time, the Shogun (The guy who was really in charge as he controled the military, and one Shogun decided to threaten the emporer, so basicly, the emporers were figure heads for a long time, though I'm guessing the one durring WWII was also a Shogun and had the loyalty of the military, hey, that's somthing I ought to look up) was likly a cruel man, so we MUST take that into account. Now, the Jappanese were fighting much like the older days, but now, they modernized a bit, so the honor of theirs still has the basic gist, but is not as... well, cruel in battle (cruel as in how they fought, not as in evil). In the end, Yori was just being honorible.
