Re: "Dragon Ball Super" Official Announcement & Discussion Thread

Awful news. I hope Masako Nozawa stays alive until Super ends. Not a fan of her voice by it's always sad to see old VA die who have been servicing Dragon Ball for 3 decades. RIP Hiromi Tsuru :(

Re: Worst possible episode you've seen in Super?

Too many to name, there's a reason people dislike Super. It lacks consistency

I don't think Gohan is as popular in japan as he is in the West

Re: I think feminism is the reason for the overpowered female characters

Anyone that even uses the term "traditional values" is guaranteed to think a woman's place is in the kitchen and should be obedient and subservient to her husband, they're probably also abusers. Too bad that these so-called "traditional values" are getting moralized in some plac...

Re: The 1 year anniversary of Episode 66

Zeno erasing Future Trunks timeline was a very powerful scene, it's the first time something tragic happened that was irreversible. Possibly the first arc where there's no happy ending at all, everything was in vain. Like or hate, Future Trunks arc is very unique for Dragon Ball. Heroes don't always...

Re: Power scaling is not important anymore.

Power scaling still exists to some extent. Characters are stronger or weajer than others. The problem with power scaling is that it people get caught up on how strong a character 'deserves' to be based on some arbitrary criteria instead of focusing on how strong they are relative to one another. Po...

Re: Dragon Ball Super Has Surpassed Gundam in Sales!

So no it's not a coincidence that they see a resurgence in DB product interest and sales specifically Xenoverse releasing Feb (sells like crazy) and we get an announcement of a new anime and series being made in April... Super did have a massive influence undeniably, there were other games before X...

Re: Do you want to see a primary female antagonist in Super?(some spoilers for One Piece)

In episode 100, Napapa was holding up Kale and there were quite a bit of people on twitter angry about that and talking about "rape vibes". In a tournament for survival. I doubt toriyama wants to open that pandora's box. If it's public outrage you're worried about, vast majority of wester...

Re: Dragon Ball Super Has Surpassed Gundam in Sales!

How much of Dokkan's success can we contribute to Super's mindshare is unknown until they release the data. It's easy, Dragon Ball sales were in terminal decline until Dragon Ball Super arrived. Prior to 2016 , Dragon Ball wasn't even top 5 for Bandai Namco for 6 years. Now it's no.1. You think it'...

Dragon Ball is the number 1 money making franchise based on anime/manga in Japan. It makes more than than every single anime/manga based franchise. You can't go any higher than that

Re: Do you want to see a primary female antagonist in Super?(some spoilers for One Piece)

Is it even bad if I marathon the whole arc in a few days ? Yes, it's still bad. I dropped the anime back in February 2015, never looked back (I even remember the month, I was that frustrated). If you keep watching the anime you will lose interest in the show, binge or not. Dressrosa Arc was a compl...

They've been hit or miss, Black was a great characters yet Jerin is the most boring in all of DB. Unless DB or Super decides to completely step out of its safe zone then no, it won't really be able to pull off things like that. I haven't seen that arc as I just finished Thriller Bark but I read a b...

I didn't say japanese fans would care. Western fans care a lot more about that type of stuff. DBS isn't made for Western audience, Toei doesn't care much about what people outside Japan think. Also there was never any outrage, One Piece and Naruto have been out there for 20 years and nothing happen...

A lot of people got outraged when the whole videl spopovich thing happened. Same thing would happen if vegeta beat up some chick brutally. What are you talking about? Luffy regularly beats the shit out of girls, his first opponent was a fat female named Alvida. There has never been any outrage, Jap...

Just empty space I think. Not a true void.

You’re accusing the fan base of being ignorant yet you assumed that I potentially haven’t watched naruto or one piece?
