Re: FUNi teased probably (but unconfirmed) picking up DB Sup
In that case, the way they handled the image at Montreal ComicCon was piss-poorly done.

FUNi teased probably (but unconfirmed) picking up DB Super
At several cons, and now also on Twitter, FUNimation has been sharing this image https://twitter.com/FUNimation/status/618936579277631489/photo/1 According to the rep here in Montreal last weekend (edit: meaning the tiny anime section of the HMV booth at the Montreal ComicCon that had nothing but FU...

Re: About the Kaio/Kaioshin
My thinking was that Kaioshin are like Enma: they won't die of old age or they live for countless eons longer than regular Shin-jin. As for Kaio not being replaced, it's possible his tenure is based on a certain amount of years served and not whether or not the person is dead. For example, if the Ka...

Re: Super's manga by Toyotarō
All this talk about "his actual awakening." He's awake. We see he's awake. He blows up a planet and tells Whiz about Super Saiyan God. Blowing up the planet is what alerts the Kaioshin. It's not like series proper has never ignored a movie before, so why is everyone trying to shoehorn them...

Re: Super's manga by Toyotarō
So is Super going to cover the events up till BoG and FnF then continue past them? Precisely, that's what was announced in the V-Jump. Taken straight from Kanzenshuu's main page translation: "This series is a super tale that depicts what happens “afterwards” to Goku and the gang following the ...

Re: Super's manga by Toyotarō
Read the manga. It's definitely a retcon/reboot/retelling of Battle of Gods and not taking part between two scenes of the film. It's retelling the story and setting it shortly after the Buu saga (as in, likely a few weeks later or less). It's still possible that the OVA and/or RoF take place later, ...

Re: Old Masters Power
How strong was Mutaito? And prime Muten Roshi , Tsuru Sennin? Mutaito should be way below young Piccolo-Daimao, maybe on pair with Roshi at the 22nd Tenkaichi Budokai. Since during the tournament, he started talking about the new generation and how he could be replaced. Following the theme were stu...

Re: What would happen if Gohan was kidnapped by Raditz?
Gohan would have died. Raditz, Vegeta and Nappa were attacking a planet that was too dangerous for Raditz to be on, so the whole purpose of him getting Goku was to get out of the way of danger. 10 months travelling to Earth to get Goku while Vegeta and Nappa continue fighting, 10 months travelling t...

Re: Abo and Cado's Power
I don't see Abo and Kado as contradicting anything. Beerus' comments are uninformed opinions AND based on outdated information. Meanwhile, Sorbet reviving Freeza can be explained by the following: Abo and Kado might have been a different faction of Freeza's remnants (so why obey Sorbet?), Abo and Ka...

Re: How powerful is Isaza
So this guy's best feat is surviving a plane crash? Then why is Buu even in the picture here? Harrison Ford did that a few months ago. What happened to him in the plane is basically what "Golden-haired Gohan" (as in, Great Saiyaman prior to getting the costume) did to the escaping robbers...

Re: How powerful is Isaza
When Kajika causes his bug-plane to crash, we see him whipe blood from his lip as he's getting out. That would imply he's nowhere near as powerful as 21st Budokai Krillin. He and Kajika also have an attack that looks like it's telekinesis, but once Kajika has his cursed removed and uses it again, we...

Re: Why couldn't Ginyu control Goku's ki?
It's implied that the bodies were too different for him to have mastered tapping into all of Goku's power right off the bat. In other words, it's because he just wasn't used to Goku's body yet.

Re: Male and Female Potara Fusion?
I just assumed it gets decided based on whichever characteristics determine which personality is dominant. So if Goten were female, Gotenks as seen would still be the result because of how Trunks was the dominant personality.

Not wanting style changes over time? Have you people not seen pics of his earliest works? I love me some Toriyama, but that stuff's just horribad.

Re: Would you have preferred Goku not keeping the God power
Same. The impression I get is that he understood how to manipulate his ki so that it mimics the effects of SSJ God.Kamiccolo9 wrote:I'm still not convinced he does keep it after all this new stuff. I'd rather wait and see how everything plays out before indulging in idle speculation.

Re: If Imperfect Cell absorbed x# people, could he turn Perf
They were literally used for their infinite power batteries. So if #17 had a BP of 250M, #18 of 240M and Perfect Cell of 750M, then an exhausted Perfect Cell would never drop beneath 490M (the combined strengths of the batteries). That's... interesting. Going by that theory, would that make 490M it...

Re: Can Dragon Ball create constructs like Green Lantern
Saiyan saga Piccolo can create things out of thin air that permanently solid, unlike a GL construct. In other words, DB characters surpass Green Lanterns. That's not ki but a different technique called 'magic materialization' that only certain characters can use. Wouldn't that be a moot point, sinc...
