Re: Android 17's wish sounds weird
I think there's a stark difference between attempting to buy off someone's services & enticing them with a limitless prize. It's not really about the Dragon Balls used & after some time, I'd say it's hardly about the prize itself, too. 17 familiarized himself with Goku's character & was ...

Re: "Dragon Ball Super (Manga)" Official Discussion Thread
Guys, Resurrection 'F' is not in the Super manga because Toyotaro already did the manga adaptation as promotion to the film 2 months before Super began. There are 3 chapters and it covers the resurrection of Freeza, the Z Fighters x Freeza Army battle and the beginning of Goku x Freeza. If you want...

Re: Goku's age upon meeting Bulma
And I prefer to consider that she lied in BOG than having her lying in the original manga about her age where she stated that she's 16 years old. Because of Minus, if Bulma is 16 so Goku is 14 years old, and if Goku is really 12 years old so Bulma is just 14 years old, her interactions earlier in t...

Re: Non-thread-worthy discussions
So since the word on #17's shirt "Mir" is Russian for peace and somebody claimed the two twin droids were based on russians, I wanted to know, if that was actually ever stated anywhere, as now it sounds familiar for some reason :think: That seems incredibly unlikely. To start, countries i...

Re: Has Goku taught anybody Instant Transmission?
Teleportation is referenced as a difficult technique to master. The first we see of Goku using it somewhat comfortably, in action, is against Beerus. It's apparent that notable concentration is still necessary & it's not presented as a viable alternative to speed quite yet despite the years in f...

Re: So If Freeza Mastered His Golden Form...
Freeza doesn't use the technique in Resurrection F. It's probably safe to assume that he's as powerful as possible in his latest state. Additionally, the golden shine was a personal touch. I doubt mastery of his newfound strength would alter his appearance unless he wished it so.

Re: Shouldn't Vegetto have had armor?
I wouldn't say "should". As far as I'm aware, there exists no proper guide for Potara clothing style. In the Future Trunks arc, Vegetto was born years ago. It's probably simpler to assume that his Boo arc appearance is the pre-established base of which the earrings call upon.

Re: Dragon Ball Super air on Italy [UPDATE]
There's nothing inappropriate about inquiring an unexpected passing. It would be easier to provide the answer rather than judging others based on personal interpretations. Extending the subject, as an older individual, I'm unaware of a supposed generational taboo. It's common to seek insight in ligh...

Re: Super Animation Catalogue 2.0 - Episode 84
I'm assuming Arale's leaner size is reflective of her current portrayals? It's a curious choice for what's intended as a nostalgic episode (thus representing the rounder Arale).

Re: The All-Purpose "Versus" Thread
Grand Elder claimed that Piccolo would double his power with God? That doesn't sound quite right. At least, I recall Kuririn claiming a merging with God is useful due to Piccolo's continuous training . Not that it would be but I don't think it's a static level-up based on that observation (as Kurir...

I don't think praising the Evil Dragons is unpopular in this community. I'm fairly certain that member isn't responsible for the phrase, too. If anything, I think I'm a part of a minority opinion for disliking both the idea & practice of the Evil Dragons. Their concept is at odds with the origi...

Re: Why was GT more faded than Dragon Ball Z?
Generally, animation cels aren't representative of the final product's intended aesthetic. Aside from occasional coloring mishaps during conversion, the darker aura is undoubtedly intentional. I think a fair point was made in that there was a stronger, conscious (without blatancy) focus in mirroring...

Re: Can Saiyans survive in space?
Goku spends 12 panels of roughly 4 pages underwater. I'm not sure how one could calculate time in a manga but I don't think that's "an especially long time" either. In the Dragon Ball Z adaption , Freeza drowns Goku for roughly 30 seconds before he stops resisting. Discounting his nightmar...
