Re: Non-thread-worthy discussions

I want to ask what makes someone a hero? Some people claim Goku is a hero, but some doesn't consider him to be a hero. I consider Goku to be a hero, since he helps those that ask for his help and if he sees someone in trouble he helps them. Goku has to great length to revive those that died thanks t...

Re: Dragon Ball Daima (2024)

It seems like back in the day that Toei went out of their way at times to interpret and write Goku in the anime as effectively a superhero, even to the point of such things as healing a bird with his own power in one scene during one of the movies. I heard that it was apparently due to them not exa...

Re: Dragon Ball Daima (2024)

Goku has seen innocent people getting attacked by villains and Goku helped those people out, I consider that heroic. Goku has gone out of his way to get the Dragon Balls to revive people, that is heroic in itself. He also went out of his way to try and activate the Dragons Balls. Lets not forget tha...

Re: Dragon Ball Daima (2024)

Dragon Ball became way too invested in trying to determine who could defeat someone in a one-on-one battle at full strength. I really wish that stuff outside of the 1984 comic had taken it upon itself to avoid doing that. Other anime made in 2024 still focus on one-on-one battle, which I enjoy. Alt...

Re: Dragon Ball Daima (2024)

I'm using your logic, Evolution used Dragon ball's name and it fail because it wasn't good, same thing should happen to Super but it did not, and FujiTv wishes that GT could gather a live crowd like Super did lol. GT ain't breaking no internet if it came out today. When even Heroes don't want to us...

Re: goku won the fight against cell, cell surviving is a plot hole and the english dub is to blame.

Cell has traits that are superior than the original cells, so why is it impossible that Cell regenerations > Piccolo?

Saiyans can't become giants without their tail.
Piccolo can turn giant but with no power increase.

Would a spin-off manga or anime about Yamcha be good?

Let say they make a manga or anime about Yamcha as the main character, would that be good? In my opinion the manga can be about Yamcha as a baseball player. Him playing in tournament playing against other baseball player. We can see all of Yamcha techniques that we knows in baseball, that he can com...

GT was successful at the time even if it suffered from franchise fatigue. It did worse than the previous two series it didn't bomb. Also lololol FujiTv wishes Dragon Ball Super had the ratings that GT did. And Evolution was hated for changing the material people hold near and dear to their childhoo...

Re: Dragon Ball Daima (2024)

Dragon Ball Evolution completely changed the story and characters in the movie, even how some techniques and transformation works.

Goku is in high school, Bulma is a fighter, Kamehameha heals, Oozaru doesn't need tail, etc.

Re: Dragon Ball Daima (2024)

No one would call the DBS anime "groundbreaking", but at the end of the day it was decent promotion for the manga and the films. Actually, I would, since it was indeed "groundbreaking". If it wasn't, it wouldn't have been live-streamed in front of thousands of people in huge pub...

Re: Dragon Ball Daima (2024)

All anime are promotional tools for something else. That being said, the cardinal sin of Super is that it's production committee members did not provide its creative staff with the time and resources necessary to create something more groundbreaking. True the staff should have been given more time ...

Re: Dragon Ball Daima (2024)

Most anime wouldn't exist without Kimba The White Lion, including Dragon Ball itself. Therefore, Kimba The White Lion is superior to Dragon Ball and every other anime combined. ...see how flawed that logic is? As influential as Dragon Ball is/was, having Z's/GT's/Super's level of writing today is u...

Re: Dragon Ball Daima (2024)

Demon Slayer looks like it is really popular and that anime is really good. It did very good in cinema. DBS Anime writing was awful at times, the sad thing is it happened way to often. No other anime will copy or take inspiration from DBS. Many anime took inspiration and ideas from Dragon Ball and D...

Re: The reason Goku stayed dead that no one talks about

Vegeta isn't to blame for Goku agreeing to fight him, he threatened Kaioshin, told Bobbidi to transport them away from the tournament grounds, and powered up to Super Saiyan 2 out of his own free will. Let's also not pretend that Goku didn't go to unnecessary lengths to indulge Vegeta. He was smili...

Re: The reason Goku stayed dead that no one talks about

It's not a matter of intelligence. Vegeta only agreed to fall under Babidi's spell because Goku was only in the living world for a day. So no, without Goku, the Buu arc doesn't happen. He didn't get possessed due to Goku only being on earth for 1 day. You're missing his point. If Goku hadn't come t...

Goku going to the 25th Martial Art Tournament wasn't what caused the trouble, since the enemies wasn't targeting Goku at all. Their target was actually Gohan. Gohan was going to go to the tournament, regardless if Goku went to earth or not. You're implying that they were specifically looking for Go...
