Re: Official On-Going Dragon Ball Super Movie #2 Thread: "Super Hero"

The previous villains being shown in Broly might've been added by Toei to recap the series for the casual audience. [..] I would be surprised if was not the case. Unless it's relevant and Toriyama mentions them, or Toei wants to advertise their future anime adaptations, I don't see Moro or Granola ...

Re: Dragon Ball Super: Manga Chapter 81 - Official Discussion Thread

Well, the unnecessarily long Granola vs Gas (as an individual, without Elec) fight is over at last. It is annoying that Granola and Elec encounter was put aside, but things are coming in place: Gokū gets the opportunity achieve his goal of improving MnG in base, and leaves Granola with Elec and Vege...

Re: Are the Saiyans Massively faster than light by the time of Super?

Indeed, if there was any intention for them to be light speed or anything close to it, there would have been some direct indication or effort put in depicting it. Their speed is simply A-LOT m/s.

Re: Dragon Ball Super: Manga Chapter 80 - Official Discussion Thread

Knowing that the arc will end soon does decrease my appreciation of the last chapters, but it actually increases my interest in the coming ones. Regarding the combat, independently or structural similarities with the movie, the current last chapters do remind me of a good portion (definitely not all...

Re: Gowasu really underestimated him honestly...

You know Op, now that I think about it, we can't even blame Gowasu too much. Because pretty much EVERYONE underestimated Zamasu and his plan, and they all paid for it dearly. I suppose that's a natural outcome of Zamasu being a master manipulator who can easily and skilfully take advantage of peopl...

Re: "Dragon Ball Super (Manga)" Official Discussion Thread

Oh, right. I had forgotten that those are colored by Toyotaro. Such a shame, but it is what it is. So weird tho; first was accepted to be anime exclusive, then the manga included a minor visual change, then Shueisha named it the same, one arc later got differentiated in-universe, and finally got col...

Re: Next Dragon Ball Super Movie Idea

As a better developed SDBH project I guess it could be fun (tho it would be better for a videogame imo), but for the main story I find it as unappealing as unlikely.

Re: C18 in ToP and Moro chapter only fights if she gets paid

She only said she wouldn't fight. Been a while but I’m pretty sure there was a never a discussion between 18 and Krillin about who gets to go. It was just Krillin is going and 18 is staying with the toddler. Kuririn changes into his dougi at home. No.18: “I’ll go too. I’m a lot more powerful than yo...

Re: So what's the fandom's consensus on Grade 3 Trunks being stronger than Perfect Cell?

I do agree on that buff Trunks is probably stronger than Cell. Cell states it clearly, supported by it's portrayal, and it serves and reinforces the plot of surpassing the SS and Gokuu's path of choice; there is no reason to doubt Cell, and there is no need for it to be weaker because it's effective...

Re: Dragon Ball Super: Manga Chapter 78 - Official Discussion Thread

Enjoyable Chapter - I feel this was definitely the right move for the plot to take at this time. Gas's particular personality (or lack thereof) is maybe a little beside the point - the Heeters are a unit, and each of them has played a particular role in the story so far. Macki has been the plausibl...

Re: Dragon Ball Super: Manga Chapter 78 - Official Discussion Thread

In a monthly 40 pages manga this unnecessary mystery leaves more disappointment than expectation, particularly the nature of the abilities (if it will even be explained) and the Burdack-Gas encounter, that even if the resolution is key to this encounter, it was given already so much unnecessarily fo...

Re: Is Yo! Son Goku and his friend return! Canon?

What you are pointing out is that headcanons have no meaning. The term "headcanon" does. I don't really se the point of dismissing the term or its use when the word itself establishes that its content exist only in one's head. Is not really a type of canon, just born born from the term.

Re: Dragon Ball Super: Manga Chapter 78 - Official Discussion Thread

I have a bad feeling about all this focus on Burdack. Hopefully he just "won" with smarts him or maybe creating an artificial moon, or Gas was just "really strong" to Monaito standards.

Re: Is Yo! Son Goku and his friend return! Canon?

if "canon" is Toriyama's story and he didn't make this hypothetical continuation, it would be non-canon, yes. Not according to anyone, but according to its definition (the "canon" definition of this premise and the one is usually implied). It would still be the official continua...

Re: Is Yo! Son Goku and his friend return! Canon?

There doesn't need to be an official statement about what's canon or not because it's not that friggin' hard to figure out. So to you, canon would be only what Toriyama does. Noble way to see things. But then please answer these questions: Then tell me, when Toriyama retires and/or passes away, wha...
