Re: Dragon Ball Super: Manga Chapter 100 - Official Discussion Thread
it was also his idea too have him show up for no reason in the arc. Dende forbids one of his many, many assaults to have some consequences in the future. Why would they and what are the chances, right? Toriyama's Bardock was a bum unlike Luffy and Naruto's dads who were some of the strongest in the...

Re: Non-thread-worthy discussions
I guess there's that. Though I think by "us" Piccolo is referring to the difference between him and Kaioshin of East specifically, not "everyone" as you said in your last post. Be that as it may, we can't rule out that Piccolo forfeited due to the status difference. Not that I wa...

Re: Non-thread-worthy discussions
You're all better off not trying to find excuses and explanations for things that don't have (in-universe) excuses and explanations. Just call them what they are: problems, contradictions and inconsistencies. They even dared to tell audience that Buu had god Ki ( twice ), even though his Ki could be...

Re: Non-thread-worthy discussions
That being said, I wish fans had that much leniency with mostly-harmless non-Toriyama material. Coddling Toriyama ensures you get to have some friends to talk to. Considering we haven't seen the King Kai's quadrant-based peers or the Grand Kai since, I doubt they're even canon. https://i.postimg.cc...

Re: Dragon Ball Daima (2024)
The most impressive example I've noticed of Toriyama remembering something that fans didn't notice is God Ki. While it's BoG that made everyone even learn about it, it was actually there during Buu saga. Shin in 439 notes that Piccolo only managed to recognize who he is because he used to be Kami, ...

Re: A new Budokai Tenkaichi has been announced
Were you expecting them to show everything all at once? I was expecting them to show more than just that. if it story stuff then your setting yourself up for disappointment Only if they retell Dragon Ball Z for the bazillionth time. If it provides new story, probably featuring a new character, it w...

Re: The languages of Goku's, Vegeta's and Piccolo's techniques
Toriyama on Vegeta's techniques being in English is true. He never said anything else regarding this topic, as far as I know.

Re: A new Budokai Tenkaichi has been announced
Almost a year after being announced (followed by an ungodly silence) and that is all they have to show. The Game Awards and the Oscars should include the "Best & Worst Marketing Campaign" category, that's one thing Dragon Ball these days would become a staple on, probably even on a win...

Re: Death Battle Goku vs Superman again...again
• As always, there is no "CC Goku". Just "Goku", or "Dragon Ball Super Goku". • Dragon Ball Heroes and Dragon Ball Xenoverse aren't connected in any way (and that especially goes for Dragon Ball Online). There's an alternate ending in Xenoverse where your Time Patroller...

Re: Plural of the word "Saiya-jin"
As already said, until an official spelling becomes the norm, these words should be bound by the already known grammatical rules of the region. If your language uses "S" to denote plural, then the plural of "Saiyajin" should be "Saiyajins". I don't know about the hyphen...

Re: Death Battle Goku vs Superman again...again
Well, how convenient that on the day I saw this thread, Comics Explained posted a video in which Superman loses to Godzilla . The bigger you are, the slower you get so I would imagine Godzilla would definitely lose against the likes of Superman, but eh... Normally, I'd say Superman would win against...

Re: Death Battle Goku vs Superman again...again
We are still doing this despite so many interesting fights to be done instead? I'm willing to bet these are the same people who complain about "lack of creativity" everywhere else. Who wins? Whoever the writer(s) want. Expect any differences in approach? No. Same nonsense as always. Right ...

Re: What are your favourite logos for the series?
Which are your favourites? Dragon Ball Kai , well, mostly the way "Kai" is stylized. And Dragon Ball Online , in a poster it looks great. Do you think Dragon Ball needs consistent branding, or do you prefer when Toriyama and the gangs experiment with the designs? Experiment with new, othe...

Re: When do you think the Super anime is returning? Should I read the manga while waiting for the anime?
Funny thing is, if they have Moro and Granolah happen after Super Hero, that kinda fixes the consistency error Toyotaro brought about by placing the movie after them (...). And since Goku and Vegeta were barely in Super Hero, and Broly is not in Moro or Granolah, it would not require much work at a...

Re: MistareFusion's Dragon Ball Dissection! (Updated 10/30/23!)
I mean, going by the old Battle of Gods continuity, I'd just assume the Super Saiyan God legend is even older than the Super Saiyan legend, to the point where the Saiyans themselves have completely forgotten it. And that would be a completely fair assumption, but if we take into consideration what ...

Re: MistareFusion's Dragon Ball Dissection! (Updated 10/30/23!)
I guess I should say I don't follow the anime continuity for this particular portion of the series. So whatever changes there are in there, I don't really care. Although that is an explanation for Vegeta's ignorance towards it.

Damn. I was going off the top of my head, I remembered Vegeta recognizing Cabba's armor but I couldn't remember "planet Sadala" actually being name dropped for Universe 7 (it's also in the anime continuity). :oops: But yeah, Saiyans lived on Sadala and then they went straight to Plant. My ...
