Re: Dragon Ball Daima (2024)
However, I think there will be some serious stuff by the end of it, to cater to the audience that watches DB just for that, which happens to be the majority of the fandom. Has there been surveys about this, or are you voicing your impressions as facts? Dragon Ball's rise in popularity scales with h...

Re: Dragon Ball Daima (2024)
People complaining about lack of marketing for a show 6 months away need to get a grip.
But I realise this is a common thing with some Japanese properties but all you really need are a couple exiting trailers a month or 2 before release and the hype train will fuel itself.

Re: Non-thread-worthy discussions
Just re-read MUI Goku vs Moro. In terms of narrative substance it's easily one of the worst fights in the history of the franchise. Goku acts so insanely, blindingly stupid it actually hurts to read, he spends 20 pages not killing Moro... for no real reason at all and almost threw the whole fight an...

Re: Dragon Ball Daima (2024)
Oh boy do I hope that Daima won't have any terrible asspulls like pretty much everything about Super Perfect Cell. Hopefully Daima aligns more with Super than Z in terms of writing. The worst writing, asspulls and resolution in the entirety of the franchise comes from the Goku Black arc (especially...

Re: Dragon Ball Super Strength Discussion Thread
It's a popular claim that in the DBS manga Goku and Vegeta didn't absorb SSJG into their base forms. But if that's the case why does base Vegeta have a SSJG aura when sparing against Goku in the first chapter of the Universe 6 Tournament arc?

Deftones being used for Goku's transformation against Cooler is peak-cinema and nothing will change my mind.

Re: Dragon Ball Super Strength Discussion Thread
Battle of gods said so. Fusion was denied an option to beat Beerus. This has never changed. Let us know when it does. You're not making any sense whatsoever. You're saying that because what is essentially a hypothetical Buu saga Gogeta / Vegito couldn't defeat Beerus... he's stronger than all fusio...

Re: Dragon Ball and Centrism disguised as "A Desire for works to stop being political"
Manga and entertainment should stay away as far from politics as they can. Why? because it might offend you personally? We don't want another situation like the Death Note, which featured a sudden appearance by President Trump. Why? It made for a hilarious visual and made sense in the context of th...

Re: Justin Chatwin apologizes for Dragonball Evolution
Whitewashing aside he made a decent Boo saga era Gohan, shame that wasn't the character he was supposed to be playing, but that's not his fault just the way the character was written Goku isn't white? Oh he's super white. Based on the super caucasian Jackie Chan and the Monkey King from the very wh...

Re: Justin Chatwin apologizes for Dragonball Evolution
Some could argue that without the awfulness of DBE Toriyama wouldn't have been as fired up when rewriting the BoG script and thus launching the Dragon Ball revival era we're still in today. And not saying this applies to you, but many of the same people going "he's not Asian, he's an alien"...

Re: Dragon Ball Without Its Creator
A dark thought that I had was about all of those fans complaining about not getting DBS season 2... Well with Toriyama passing away an animated adaptation of the manga exclusive arcs are pretty much an inevitability and may happen sooner rather than later. Hell maybe they'll even make movies out of ...

Re: Dragon Ball Super Strength Discussion Thread
While I’m not entirely convinced (movie) Beerus was only quite as strong as Goku and Vegeta fighting as a team, more like close to Broly at full power, I can see why Gohan and Cell Max would be up there with this reasoning, but why Piccolo? Is he that much stronger than Goku and Vegeta even fightin...

Re: Dragon Ball Super Strength Discussion Thread
No one ever surpassed Beerus in the movies, Broly, Beast Gohan, Gogeta Blue, Cell Max and Orange Piccolo are all stronger than Beerus. Jiren is not stronger in terms of raw power but is a better fighter than him. The last stated strength level of Beerus was when Whis said SSJB Goku and Vegeta worki...

Re: Non-thread-worthy discussions
I find it mildly interesting that Vegito named himself instantly meanwhile Gogeta had to think of a name, maybe it's because Vegito was already taken.

Your concession is accepted. Says the guy who got desperate enough to start denying manga canon and can't give any of my questions straight answers because the writing he is defending is so garbage.

Re: Dragon Ball Super: Manga Chapter 102 - Official Discussion Thread
Doesn't change the fact that his rage boost ability is there; exists. So you can't give me a straight answer then? In turn admitting Gohan's rage boosts aren't consistent, contrary to what you claimed before? If the writing wasn't "bad" you would be able to give me a simple logical answer...
