Re: Canon Bra should be a warrior like Pan

DBS Bra is already way better than GT Bra. As a kid she is great with technology, able to get rid of Dr Hedo virus which is not a small feat.
Bra has the potential to surpass Dr Gero, Dr Hedo and Bulma.

I also hope that Bra will enjoy to fight, then she can train with Pan.

Re: Goku and why Roshi was more right than we ever could imagine.

Was it not pointed out right at the start of the Z portion that Goku had been wanting to train with Gohan but Chichi didn't let him? So yeah, despite being officially the strongest man on Earth and not knowing that there were even stronger people on other planets, Goku very much still wanted to gro...

I think I will stop coming to this thread, until there are more information about Dragon Ball Daima.
I do hope Dragon Ball Daima turns out good.

Re: Dragon Ball Daima (2024)

Mostly this. Goku can be a selfish, overconfident, static character who, while not exactly a hero, can do heroic things out of pure accident and a selfish desire to fight strong people. But such a character is hard to write, you need to strike a good balance, otherwise the audience may lose interes...

Re: Dragon Ball Daima (2024)

I think the point of contention is that Goku was not characterized to such extremes for large portions of the series. Not necessarily that we want him to be mire akin to characters in other stories because we like them more. Mostly this. Goku can be a selfish, overconfident, static character who, w...

Re: Why Tenshinhan/Tien can, and should get more relevance

Humans definitely need a Power Up i would like Tenshinhan Krillin and Yamcha to be useful again Only if they train hard for it, they don't seem willing to train with others stronger than themselves. They are not interested in finding new masters to train them and they are not willing to train in sp...

Re: Why is Toei so obsessed in making Goku dumb in DBS and DBS movies

Yes i also miss Toei serious Goku from the original Dragon Ball Z but Goku was always funny i feel that one of the reasons why Goku acts like this in Super is because there has not yet been a serious Villain who is a threat to the existence of the Universe Super needs a Villain who is a serious thr...

Re: Dragon Ball Daima (2024)

I feel like Goku should have felt angry with himself for some of the errors that he made, like if Trunks universe gets wiped out because Goku forgot the seal to the Mafuba then I would expect at least a scene where to shows remorse for making such a stupid mistake. Goku forgetting the talisman wasn...

Re: Dragon Ball Daima (2024)

Nobody's arguing that Goku needs to be a superhero, he can be just a guy who's out there to fight strong people who ends up saving the world by pure accident. The problem in my humble opinion is that Goku's a bad written one, often veering into pure unlikable territory after Toriyama's decided he's...

Re: Non-thread-worthy discussions

I want to ask what makes someone a hero? Some people claim Goku is a hero, but some doesn't consider him to be a hero. I consider Goku to be a hero, since he helps those that ask for his help and if he sees someone in trouble he helps them. Goku has to great length to revive those that died thanks t...

Re: Dragon Ball Daima (2024)

It seems like back in the day that Toei went out of their way at times to interpret and write Goku in the anime as effectively a superhero, even to the point of such things as healing a bird with his own power in one scene during one of the movies. I heard that it was apparently due to them not exa...

Goku has gone out of his way to get the Dragon Balls to revive people, that is heroic in itself. He also went out of his way to try and activate the Dragons Balls. Lets not forget tha...

Re: Dragon Ball Daima (2024)

Dragon Ball became way too invested in trying to determine who could defeat someone in a one-on-one battle at full strength. I really wish that stuff outside of the 1984 comic had taken it upon itself to avoid doing that. Other anime made in 2024 still focus on one-on-one battle, which I enjoy. Alt...

I'm using your logic, Evolution used Dragon ball's name and it fail because it wasn't good, same thing should happen to Super but it did not, and FujiTv wishes that GT could gather a live crowd like Super did lol. GT ain't breaking no internet if it came out today. When even Heroes don't want to us...

Re: goku won the fight against cell, cell surviving is a plot hole and the english dub is to blame.

Cell has traits that are superior than the original cells, so why is it impossible that Cell regenerations > Piccolo?

Saiyans can't become giants without their tail.
Piccolo can turn giant but with no power increase.

Would a spin-off manga or anime about Yamcha be good?

Let say they make a manga or anime about Yamcha as the main character, would that be good? In my opinion the manga can be about Yamcha as a baseball player. Him playing in tournament playing against other baseball player. We can see all of Yamcha techniques that we knows in baseball, that he can com...

Dragon Ball Evolution completely changed the story and characters in the movie, even how some techniques and transformation works.

Goku is in high school, Bulma is a fighter, Kamehameha heals, Oozaru doesn't need tail, etc.

Re: Dragon Ball Daima (2024)

No one would call the DBS anime "groundbreaking", but at the end of the day it was decent promotion for the manga and the films. Actually, I would, since it was indeed "groundbreaking". If it wasn't, it wouldn't have been live-streamed in front of thousands of people in huge pub...

Re: Dragon Ball Daima (2024)

All anime are promotional tools for something else.

True the staff should have been given more time ...
