Re: Do you think Super would have benefited by holding off on Super Saiyan Blue?
I'm just happy we've stuck it out with Blue for as long as we have. Personally, I would have been okay with there just being the original Super Saiyan form and perhaps focusing more on new techniques and abilities, but I digress. I'll agree that Super Saiyan God does feel rather under-utilised, as m...

Re: Db manga adult Goku is very much different from super anime goku
I disagree. I recently bought all the DBS manga volumes and read them in one go. I don't think they're that different. DBS manga Goku still acts goofy and childish a lot of times in almost every arc, and, what's more, he seems more selfish than DBS anime Goku. Not to mention, in the ToP he seems fl...

Re: A couple or one sided romance?
Granted, I'm pretty oblivious to romance, myself, but to me, their relationship always came across as more sisterly than anything. I'd probably have to agree with GreatSaiyaJeff's take, since, whether we want to regard it as romantic or not, we see a very one-sided attraction from Kale, while Caulif...

Re: The Anime's ToP or the Manga's ToP? Which one did you prefer?
Honestly, it's been ages since I've seen either (so let me know if I'm missin' anything!), but for me, I'd have to go with the anime adaption. The manga does have some things I liked, however, such as exploring Jiren's motivations for wanting to obtain the wish, as well as moments like Frost's elimi...

Re: Sorbet's Conviction about Frieza
Sorbet really overestimated Freeza. I wish Sorbet had shot Freeza instead of Gokuu instead. Just think of how fitting it would be for Sorbet to kill Freeza after all that? In general, I'd say Freeza's characterisation in the movie is pretty bad. He may be pretty much my favourite character, but I w...

Re: Sorbet's Conviction about Frieza
Mister_Popo, I agree. I've always considered it a shame that we never really get to explore any villains beyond those who are physically powerful. A strategical mastermind would have felt like a breath of fresh air. Sorbet largely feels like an under-utilised character, and it's a shame that we neve...

Re: Does anyone else have a hard time switching back and forth between English and Japanese Dragon Ball?
Not overly; I've gotten quite used to watching the Japanese dub of Dragon Ball Super, so all of the voices feel quite natural to me, despite having heard the English ones first (from DB and Z). That said, if I did have to watch some of the earlier dubbed stuff (pre-Kai), it might feel a bit jarring ...

Re: New digital manga focused on... Yamcha?
Guy deserves some spotlight, he's been shunted for far too long.
And people who rely on Yamcha jokes to be funny lack originality. ಠ‿↼

Re: Favorite Era for Toriyama Artwork?
Late Dragon Ball (around the 22nd Tenkaichi Budōkai) to the end of the Frieza Saga were my favourites.
I'm sure this is an unpopular opinion, but I actually really like the style used in Super, too. When it's animated well, it's animated very well.

Re: Would you still be as engaged in Dragonball fandom if Super did not exist?
I probably wouldn't have, I think. I first started watching the series a few years ago when I was 13-14, but while I may not have the childhood nostalgia, it definitely holds a place in my heart, because I so enjoyed watching the original Dragon Ball and Dragon Ball Z (though I got a little bored du...

Re: Does anyone here watch Kai in Japanese?
I dropped the show in the middle, but I did watch a decent amount of episodes. I watch all shows in their original format and have zero interest in dubs. Anyways, yeah Kai was garbage compared to Z and even in it's own the performances were pretty sub-par. But, Kai was so poorly made as a product t...

Re: Super Episode 116 (19 November 2017)
The more I see ultra instinct on screen, the more it makes me question what the **** the point of SSJG was. This form does everything that supposed god form failed to: actually look imposing, show dominance, and make (base) Goku act and appear stronger. Ultra Instinct should have been SSJG, and SSJ...
