Even if you want to argue that the DBS anime was not meant to be the “main product,” I don’t understand how anyone could suggest that it was adapting the manga. It clearly wasn’t. The anime and the manga were both adapting Akira Toriyama’s outlines, and gave their own respective spins on them. That’...

I still can’t wrap my head around why people are arguing that this must take place before Super. What would be the point of that? I can’t think of any purpose that going backwards in the timeline would serve. Why bother? If you want to argue that they’d do that for the sake of “power scaling,” the s...

I’ve had my doubts that there’s any plan to kill of Freeza yet again after the Broly movie. That film seemed to pretty much cement him as the Dragon Ball equivalent of a villain from an 80s Saturday morning cartoon, and those guys almost never receive definitive ends. It is weird to think that Freez...

I don’t know what the discussions regarding the timeline are about. I would’ve assumed this is meant to take place post- Super Hero at the very least. I can’t think of any worthwhile reason to go backwards in the story. Anyway, I think I’ll take this over bringing back the DBS anime. DBS has long si...

The leaks were true after all. Not surprised.

I would compare this more to Muppet Babies and all those other “baby” spin-offs that were prominent back in the day.

I don’t get the impression they’re particularly obsessed with making Goku “the strongest.” Goku defeats the villain in most of the Z movies because he’s the main character of the series, and the movies were meant to be short little representations of what Dragon Ball was all about. Gohan defeats Boj...

I think there are far more important things to focus on in Dragon Ball than the imaginary stats and feats for each of the characters. I’m fairly certain that the people making Dragon Ball couldn’t care less about appeasing the Death Battle crowd.

I don’t see any problem with a “I’m big enough to hang with the adults” kid character. I think the big problem with Pan in GT is that the writers were trying way too hard to make her the new Bulma, and it just doesn’t work.

It's a good indication something MIGHT be happening, it doesn't confirm Dragon Ball Magic At this point, I’m inclined to think it’s more likely than Super coming back as an anime. Right, I'd sooner buy an announcement for 2uper than Dragon Ball Magic I don’t know. I feel like there’s plenty of smok...

Yeah, it's definitely happening.

At this point, I’m inclined to think it’s more likely than Super coming back as an anime.

I Why are we just assuming they "can't" do the manga rather than because adapting a monthly ongoing manga is still a supremely stupid idea (seriously, it seems like people want bad pacing and filler shit)? I'm surprised that anyone with credibility is even talking about this. Thank you. I...

Toriyama also the one who came up with the heeters and helps out with the manga sometimes All I’m saying is I don’t think it’s implausible that Toei might not see much value in bringing back their ongoing anime series just to adapt the manga content. What other explanation would one give for why th...

Toriyama is the one who supervises the manga But the writing and much of the story ideas are from Toyatoro, aren’t they?

i doubt that since they are working on this web project about shin and kid goku with it being 45 minute 15 episodes. A 15 episode web series seems more manageable than an ongoing television series that’s adapting the work of someone who isn’t Akita Toriyama. Toriyama is the one who supervises the m...

I wonder that too. I don't get why they haven't. Is it that hard to do new episodes for Super? Maybe they just don’t think it’s worth the time and resources it would require. i doubt that since they are working on this web project about shin and kid goku with it being 45 minute 15 episodes.

Let see if the rumors are true, I guess we will find out very soon we are near October. I don't understand why they don't animate the manga, there is the Moro chapter and Granolah chapter. I wonder that too. I don't get why they haven't. Is it that hard to do new episodes for Super? Maybe they just...

This might be a hot take, but assuming this is legit (which I’m not saying it is), I think I’d somewhat prefer this over adapting the manga. The DBS formula has long since gotten stale for me. I’d definitely prefer it over adapting the movies, that’s for sure.

. And DB remake would "require" (unfortunately) too much censorship. To the point it wouldn't feel half like the original thing. I think all the involved parties don't see a point in this. There would be nothing to censor if it's remade from the ground up. Most of the worst stuff was Toei...

Well, there you go.

For all its many faults, DBE had the right idea of blending the very first arc of the manga with the Piccolo Daimao arc. That’s a good way of streamlining the story, without starting off with the Saiyans. It does mean removing the Red Ribbon Army, which would affect Dr. Gero’s motivation if they eve...
