Re: Dragon Ball Super Movie #2 Coming 2022?
I hope they at least reveal the movie's title. I'd like to know sooner than later if this is going to be Cooler, Janemba, Moro, or someone new.

Re: Dragon Ball Super Movie #2 Coming 2022?
At least I now have a personal "worst case scenario" for this movie: a full cgi film that rehashes stuff we've seen before leaving no room for any surprises. Toei is capable of good cgi (recent precure movies and ending songs), but wow would it be disappointing to, imo, after they've gotte...

Re: Dragon Ball Super Movie #2 Coming 2022?
I hope we get a new story with a new villain, but I've been feeling pessimistic about DB for a while in terms of where they've been going with it in relation to what interests me about the franchise so it'll probably be a retelling of something.

Re: I feel like the Super anime (or a continuation of it?) has been quietly canceled
I'm not having any fun with the manga version since the anime ended (it's not bad, it's competent, just boring to me and overly analytical about things I'm not interested in.), so personally I wouldn't be that interested in a straight adaption of the manga for Super 2's anime.

Re: I feel like the Super anime (or a continuation of it?) has been quietly canceled
I feel like both Moro and Granola are so far better suited to movies than a weekly series. I wonder if they weren't both ideas that were shopped around as potential plots for the 2018 movie that weren't used then in favor of Broly's name recognition.

Only if I didn't have to move. While I could see myself moving to a neighboring state for a job, I wouldn't want to move all the way to Texas.

I'm in such a strange place with this manga right now. This was a very well put together chapter, it feels like it will translate well to a movie if it gets one, but it checks barely any of my personal boxes of "plot points in Dragon Ball that get me invested" so I'm left feeling decidedl...

Re: I feel like the Super anime (or a continuation of it?) has been quietly canceled
Even though I'm pretty firmly in one camp myself, the fact that the debate between the Super TV series and anime is so contentious among fans (as seen above), probably means they both do something right. For me, the weekly TV series had higher highs and lower lows while the manga kind of remained i...

Re: I feel like the Super anime (or a continuation of it?) has been quietly canceled
Regarding other Toei projects reaping the benefits of learning from the mistakes made in Super's production while the animated portion of the DB franchise has been relegated to low-effort monthly 7 minute DBH; I think it all depends on personal investment/motivations. The simile that comes to my min...

Re: What would you like to see when the anime returns
I want fun character moments and mysteries I'm interested in to theorize about; the two most prominent things I find missing from the manga currently.
The manga is competent, but dry right now, imo. It's like listening to a very talented professor lecture on a topic I don't care about.

Re: "Dragon Ball Super (Manga)" Official Discussion Thread
I agree on Vegeta's new character arc here feeling artificial to fit the plot, and that we didn't need yet another set of dragon balls. Granola has a solid backstory. This chapter on the whole though... it's mostly really well-written, but it's way too dry for me. Where the anime could get so absurd...

Re: "Dragon Ball Super" Series Official Announcement & Discussion Thread
What I miss is making animated gifs with parts of new episodes. You can't really do that with the manga--not in the same way. Super's filler was a mixed bag imo. Some I liked, some I didn't. I feel like it's what's missing from the manga though, which feels to me too straightforward and sterile. Lik...

Re: "Dragon Ball Super (Manga)" Official Discussion Thread
I'm alright with them splitting Vegeta off to go learn stuff from Beerus. It's a good lesson about how each person has their own individual personality and ways of doing things and how not everyone takes the exact same path, but tries to take the one that best fits them and how you can try somethin...

Yes, please! I want Freeza gone; he's just diminishing returns at this point. Let's move on from him.

Re: DBS treated Goten and Trunks really bad
I think it's a catch-22. They no longer want to show young kids in battle, but if they age them up to where they're old looking enough to be acceptably seen in fights they won't be thought marketable by the companies because they'll say they're too old. Recall even long ago Toriyama had to fight to ...
