Re: Dragon Ball Daima (2024)
I see what you're saying about Daima. It's why I'm hoping for lower stakes here. As in Vegeta and Goku can't just Super Saiyan Blue themselves ( :wink: ) out of a any situation. Which would force the show to get creative in how the team actually solves the problems, while also focusing more on chara...

Re: Is a Budokai Reboot possible ?
I'm hoping for a FighterZ 2 aswell, but I'd be ecstatic if they announced a new Budokai game, and there's no reason we can't get both. If you don't want it fair enough, but many of us have longed for it for years. FighterZ is better as a serious competitive fighter, but Budokai hits that sweet spot...

Re: Dragon Ball Daima (2024)
Right, the initial setup of Shin/Kibito/Goku doesn't impress me. I hope the "Universal Travel" bit is short, or that other characters eventually join them. The Red Ribbon Army had a similar problem, where it was just Goku going places and single-handedly beating the problem up without eff...

Re: Is original Dragon Ball really that unpopular?
The irony of waiting for an anime to "git gud" is that the anime has to be good in the first place for it to "git gud." For example: Demon Slayer ep 19 is the episode that people commonly believe as the moment where the anime went from "decent shounen" to "hyped ma...

Re: Dragon Ball Daima (2024)
I wasn’t really saying that Daima “is” a remake to GT. You’re right that that’s probably not the intention, but I wouldn’t be surprised if that was a comparison made by people producing the anime. It certainly will be one by the people who are watching it. I absolutely do think the absence of Whis a...

Re: Dragon Ball Daima (2024)
The silliness of "My Dragon Ball Era is better than YOUR Dragon Ball Era" is honestly besides the point. How good Daima is or isn't is going to be unrelated to any previous series, and is something that can be determined both on its own merits and the merits of as a work of art in general...

Re: The end of "Akira Toriyama canon"
Super has consistent and logical writing. Pretty much everything that happens in Super has a given reason. There are no "inexplicable plot holes" from Super. Even if a development seems completely random or sudden, the story provides some kind of reasoning for it. Also, Yes, it is an impo...

Re: Frieze's role more obvious than it seems
I mean...Freeza had the coldest pull up in DragonBall history--it's not surprising that people still talk about Black Freeza.

Re: The end of "Akira Toriyama canon"
With Super...I don't really get the impression that Toriyama was on the front lines ensuring that Toei "respected" Dragon Ball. Like the exploitation of Dragon Ball was already happening from the get-go, and Toriyama was okaying a number of suspect shit anyways, in addition to the things h...

Re: Dragon Ball Super: Manga Chapter 103 - Official Discussion Thread
Just to add from myself Toyotaro's post on Threads regarding Toriyama and Goku, I'm not sure what he was referring to although I can guess. "I wonder if Mr. Toriyama didn't like the trend of Goku being made into a saint...". https://www.threads.net/@toyotaro_vjump/post/C4xeqvSRxw-/ I mean...

Re: Is Super on its way out?
Well, part of the reason why this idea of ending it at 28th Tournament is superior, is because that is the original ending Toriyama planned for the story. Super is supposed to be part of Toriyama's original story. It is not a sequel, it is not a continuation of the original story; it is retroactive...

Re: Is Super on its way out?
Like I always say: Super will never go past EoZ, and I most certainly don't want Super to recontextualize EoZ to fit in any of its bullshit. As far as I'm concerned, EoZ is fine the way it is. "Updating" EoZ feels like a slap in the face to Z's legacy, and it will absolutely be worse for i...

Re: Dragon Ball Super: Manga Chapter 103 - Official Discussion Thread
It's a bit of a 'whatever' chapter, but I felt like the ending silent montage was done well and captured a good mood. Gokuu forgetting who Pan is is such a bad and pointless moment, it doesn't really do or say anything and isn't even funny. Hopefully everyone on Toyo-tarou's team gets to rest for a...

Re: Dragon Ball Super: Manga Chapter 103 - Official Discussion Thread
Hard not to associate that chapter title with recent events and the relationship between Toriyama and Toyotarou. I'm looking forward to seeing if this chapter will include some kind of tribute. nothing major. Just a note by the english language team that they are deeply sorry about Toriyama's passi...

Re: Is Super on its way out?
Not to dump on anyone who enjoys the manga, but to be honest it feels like the manga has outlived its purpose. The manga seems more like it's a curiosity to most people that I've interacted with online and people I know personally haven't even read more than a couple chapters if at all. That's actu...

Re: The end of "Akira Toriyama canon"
Weirdly enough, The thing about the half breed saiyans not having the will to improve and push themselves like their full blooded fathers always kind of rubbed me the wrong way, at least when you incorporate the context of the original DB. When Goku went through his adventures as a kid, he contende...
