Tails aren't particularly common on great apes
Guess it doesn't make sense to call them great, then.
Large apes maybe.
Yeah. It's "big cats" and "great apes" I'm just hoping the name was made when great just meant big (I do know they named them before they knew we were in that picture)
That's cap as hell considering a saiyan without a tail can't become a Great Ape or an SSJ4 for that matter.
Did you mistype? I don't understand what you're trying to say
Sorry, let me translate for the non-internet poison speaking audience.
"Sir, you are mistaken in the idea that Great Apes do not have tails for in order to become a Great Ape one must be of the saiya-jin race and still possess a tail. Meaning a Great Ape without a tail would be difficult to believe, and additionally the Great Ape state is a pre-requisite for the Super Saiyan 4 transformation as well, which promiently features a tail. You see I am being humorous by conflating real life categories of animal species with references to Akira Toryiama's hit series Dragon Ball"
Thanks mate I got the Saiyan part, I just couldn't see what you were saying at the start because I couldn't see you missed the "r" in crap :/
applauds and guffaws with merriment
