Re: Dragon Ball Super Gets Cancelled Overseas Over Sexual Harassment Claims

Of all the tone deaf statements….. I personally don’t have to deal with so it probably isn’t that big of a deal!!!! I get the impression that you overestimate the value of your experience. There is a wide world of experiences and culture out there, and you shouldn't get so annoyed when it doesn't l...

Re: Dragon Ball Super Gets Cancelled Overseas Over Sexual Harassment Claims

Sexual assault is normalized and minimalized all the time. This. Isn’t. Hard. This honestly does not apply to my life experience. Every workplace I've been in, along with most social situations....do not condone that type of behavior. I feel bad for folks who have to deal with it, but it's probably...

Re: Dragon Ball Super Gets Cancelled Overseas Over Sexual Harassment Claims

I really don't understand the confusion. I could walk outside and accost the first woman I see. I cannot walk outside and accidentally let loose a human extinction bomb. One action is a reflection of everyday life that can be and is regularly done. One is an obvious exaggerated impossibility of fic...

Re: Dragon Ball Super Gets Cancelled Overseas Over Sexual Harassment Claims

People tend to conflate Capitalism with Corporatism. It's a real shame in terms of effective communication regarding those subjects. To stray more on-topic, though...I guess I really don't find most of Muten-Roshi's antics more offensive than that casual joke about Jaco accidentally committing genoc...

Re: Which causes the worst in-fighting among Dragon Ball fans?

Well, so far the consensus seems to be dub vs sub as the biggest cause of in-fighting. Considering the circumstances with Dragon Ball, I am inclined to agree. In terms of popularity of the franchise and the sheer level of difference between the two versions, it's quite a pickle at times. I simply ha...

Re: Super has handled new forms far better than Z did

Clearly, this means SSG is Ultra Instinct Pro-Omen. Like that first fart before a series of monsters that results in a bathroom emergency.

For real though, DBS has played around with some decent idea's (mainly UI), but the transformations just tend to be color swaps or maybe add/remove pupils.

Re: Zalama, Planet Sadala, will these stories be addressed?

I continue to be baffled by this bizarre push for a "Planet Sadala arc". We've already seen enough of what we have to from them and from Saiyans in general. What exactly is the narrative potential? DB doesn't tend to explore it's own lore in such a linear or predictable fashion. I'll keep ...

Re: Is the Dragon Ball franchise sort of split into Classic and Modern now?

Ultra Instinct is not a Super Saiyan transformation. Thanks for pointing this out. Kinda triggers me how some people consider UI 'another Super Saiyan form'. That was a last minute edit on my part, actually. I was initially triggered at seeing Kaio-ken listed in Super as a transformation but the la...

Re: Would you like Viz to include the Kanzenban ending at the end of their Super run?

I'd rather they finish up the full-color print and include it there. Keep the products separate. The 'F' chapters Toyotaro did when the film came out would make a more suitable bonus down the road.

Add me to the 23rd Budokai - end of Saiyan arc / Movie 1 camp. I love that DragonGarrowLee emulates that style more than any other in DB.

Jaco manga adapted to anime, but without the bonus chapter at the end (just re-air the Bardock Special instead as the last episode).

Re: GT or Super? Which one is the best?

Super has shifted around too many times to make this question easy to answer. The first two arcs of Super (anime) are mostly trash, but the next two arcs after that are pretty entertaining and almost everything from episode 69 forward has been great. I also hold the manga version in high regard. GT ...

Re: Which would be more powerful? A Super Saiyan 3 version of Future Trunks' Mastered Super Saiyan 2 or Super Saiyan God

Since Future Trunks from Dragon Ball Super showed it was possible to fully-master Super Saiyan 2, would it have surpassed Super Saiyan God, if let us say Goku had been able to have completely mastered his Super Saiyan 3 form in a similar fashion to Future Trunks? Also, if by some chance, you had ra...
