I would've preferred 'Bills', but oh well

Those voices are pretty darn good!
His name is a Pun on Virus....so we thought. Toriyama thought it was a pun on Beer. So it's Beers in Japan except on one 3ds cover which say Bills. However Beerus is the English name. So Bills is not even a "Real" name for him cause it doesn't even fit NONE of the intentional puns. It's like renaming Kakarot(Pun on Carrot) to Kake.

Yeah, but 'Beerus' doesn't fit any of them either, apart from containing 'Beer'. Are puns really worth a more unnatural name?

Beerus fits the pun of Beer. Unlike Bills. The way the cast said Lord Beerus doesn't sound unnatural at all. How is Vegeta a natural name any ways.

and he gets that bills doesnt have a pun but was pointing out what he likes better

I've been saying Birsu since the movie was annoucned since I hate the name Bills. Then when I learned the pun was Beer. I said Beerus because it sounds badass IMHO(Glad Kanzenshuu said it too). Beerus sounds pretty naturally to me. I said it 10 times easily. Maybe because I'm Asian so I'm used to "Weird" names by English standers. After all. My real name is Pudd.

That Vegeta clip...disgraceful. But Krillin's line almost makes up for it.

I hate when former villains/anti-heroes/badasses get reduced to comedy roles, or have to sacrifice their pride for stuff like this.

Why? I found it pretty reasonable. I didn't like it during Broly however here it makes sense. I mean Beerus did two shot Goku.

Greetings. I will be your waifu this season.

Omg I forgot they all just attack Beerus...

Like why, God of Destruction dammit. Vegeta is the only smart character in the series when he's not losing his cool.

Looking forward to this I think the Japanese voices are just awful especially Goku.



Same soundtrack?

Where did 'Bills' even originate from?
It was one of several "placeholder" names from WAAAY back before the movie's release, when all we had was the kanji ( ビルス -- "bi-ru-su" ) for the character's name and no clue what the intended pun or theme for it was.

Nowadays we know that he gets his name originally from "virus" under Watanabe and then "beer" under Toriyama, so "Beerus" is pretty much the perfect way to render his name in English. Unfortunately, a lot of fans still stick to "Bills" in spite of that, either through ignorance or good ol' fashioned stubbornness. Even more unfortunately, some foreign dubs adopted it too. Thankfully FUNimation isn't one of them, and I've already noticed an increase in adoption of "Beerus" thanks to their dub and promotion of the movie.

I can make Bills work with the beer pun.

That's a reference not a pun. Or named after. Like how Son Goku is named after Sun Wukong since its the same now. So no you didn't make a pun

I think the point of these forums is to have a discussion, no? Everyone knows who Bills is when he is mentioned, it's not like "I don't know who this Bills guy is, therefore we cannot discuss". Everybody understands. Similar to if I wanted to start calling Son Goku "Daughter Goku", everyone would know. There is no reason to fuss over these things. Hell, I find it funny that people complain about us over analyzing the manga with our power levels and such, yet some people make the biggest fuss about what name is being used. Let people do what they want as long as it isn't hurting you.
