Re: "Dragon Ball Super (Manga)" Official Discussion Thread
The biggest problem with Toyotaro is that he has all of Toriyama's flaws as a writer but none of his strengths. And there's not a single thing Toyotaro does better than Toriyama (especially in his prime). Maybe Toriyama picked Toyotaro because he wanted a guy who can replicate DB's style without out...

Re: Official On-Going Dragon Ball Super Movie Thread: "Broly"
Yeah, without the rebellion scene it changes literally nothing. Absolutely nothing changes. Well, except for stripping the character of his most defining moment and altering the nature of the heritage of the main character. Vegeta's father was the King of the Saiyans. Goku's father was the man who ...

Sexism is the belief that one gender is inherently superior to the other. Pointing out innate differences between males and females, and that some acts/behaviors are inherently "masculine" or "feminine" is not sexist because you aren't making any value judgements between the 2. ...

Re: What is the dumbest DB fan theory you have ever heard?
- GT Piccolo = Omega Shenron in power - Nappa is equal to Madara from Naruto - Gohan became the Great Saiyaman because of the Ginyu Force - Toriyama said Power Levels are bullshit These just seem TOO ridiculous. Although I don't watch Naruto so I can't really comment on that one because for all I k...

Re: Why are they retconning the original Bardock special? Now it's no longer canon?
It also retcon origins of Goku, by changing him into Superman clone, rather than one of many Saiyan babies sent to different planets, that luckly (for earthlings/Universe) hit his head. Maybe we will learn more about Minus Bardock here? Like Gaffer Tape said in Dragon Ball Dissection, that was one ...

Re: Would y’all like it if Tori rebooted other Z Movie/GT villains?
As far as movies go, Bojack could be a good choice since he isn't a knock-off of a canon villain. Cooler is a likeable villain, but it would be kind of difficult to bring him into canon now since you'd have to explain where he has been all these years after the Namek arc. The rest of the movie villa...

Re: "Dragon Ball Super (Manga)" Official Discussion Thread
No, the alternatives are not preferable. They hardly resemble what makes Dragon Ball (or animation, or fantasy storytelling) interesting, and are messes in their own right. Yes, GT had a "unique tone and atmosphere"; things that had did not fit with Dragon Ball, did not ultimately work, a...

Re: Official On-Going Dragon Ball Super Movie Thread: "Broly"
I acknowledge that specific looks very tragy-heroic and badass. But from a story-point it doesn't make much sense. He and his men are simply waiting there to be slaughtered by Freeza. I hope he still rebels in the revised version, but in a more strategic manner. Remember that no one in the Freeza F...

So here’s a fun thing I tried rewatching the Faulconer era Z dub (Ginyu assault specifically) and I just couldn’t between some laughably bad dialog and cringe worthy acting (especially Sean Schemmel) I just couldn’t.

Re: Official On-Going Dragon Ball Super Movie Thread: "Broly"
If we dont get Bardock’s rebellion or maybe a new version of the rebellion, at least some scene where Bardock tries to fight back against Freeza and/or his men, this movie won’t be able to get above an 8/10. Thats how important the scene/event is to me. Maybe it being erase doesn’t bother others bu...
