Re: How did Gohan regress so much?

Not a huge one since it's based on a relatively minor art detail That's what I'm saying, though. I guess I just don't understand why an "inconsistency" based around such a minor detail could cause someone to angrily disregard the film's portrayal of a character who is by and large the exa...

Re: Wait, if God Ki is a thing...Can't EVERYONE Become Relev

Judging from Freeza, #18 would be an absolute beast if she did 4 months of training Okay, we get it, you don't like the idea that Freeza could become so strong in a short space of time and think that the concept is so ridiculous it could apply to anybody, even though it's already been stressed that...

Re: Fusions Revisited in Dragon Ball Super

We know that Gohan, Goten, and Trunks didn't train within those 10 years This doesn't need to happen in the first place. There are many ways they could write them rather than nerfing and shafting them :| it would have been inconsistent for them to keep up with Goku It's actually more inconsistent t...

This shot looks beast, but what's up with the nose :? Nothing, that's just how Yamamuro draws noses.

Re: Fusions Revisited in Dragon Ball Super

Only Gohan was nerfed (can only go up to SS), but not for no reason, but he still kicked ass (and showed that he is the strongest one there by defeating Shisami easily, while Piccolo had trouble with him), and everyone else got cool fight scenes. Vegeta also got a massive power-up, and also kicked ...

Re: Fusions Revisited in Dragon Ball Super

Vegeta surpassed Goku quite a few times post-Namek. Please elaborate on how every non-Goku/Vegeta character is kinda permanently ruined now. I only remember him passing Goku after the RoSaT, and only because he went in before Goku. Goku was overall way superior to him on Namek, during Cell, and Buu...

Re: Fusions Revisited in Dragon Ball Super

Anyway I just disagree that the manga was anything like the new movies in how other characters are treated. Goku was the MC, but other characters got plenty of moments. The new movies have Goku and Vegeta do everything, with the rest being useless and getting no shine whatsoever. The manga was noth...

Re: Fusions Revisited in Dragon Ball Super

edit: Sorry for derailing the thread ~_~ How do you expect Kuririn, Kame-sennin, or Gohan to help against Beerus or Freeza? Even if Gohan had turned Ultimate, and even if SS3 Gotenks was there, they would still be useless. Believability is not really an issue when Freeza can become God-tier out of n...

Re: Fusions Revisited in Dragon Ball Super

I'm not going to deny that there's certainly more examples of things not working like that in the earlier material compared to the 'Z' material, but that's just it - the Z material is still part of the original manga that's been around since the 90's. Why are you trying to act like it's only now in...

Re: Fusions Revisited in Dragon Ball Super

Didn't a movie just come out that dedicated screen time to different characters doing stuff? If by 'doing stuff' you mean "waiting for ~goku~ and getting jobbed", then I suppose. I don't see how that is any different from the pre-Raditz material, which you seem to be a fan of. But the &qu...

Yeah, levels of violence. I can't wait for some guts blown out and innards lying on rocks in a kid series.

Re: Fusions Revisited in Dragon Ball Super

Vegetto/Gogeta isn't Goku, so he won't get to do anything. Didn't a movie just come out that dedicated screen time to different characters doing stuff? They show up but they don't do anything of importance. All they're good for is fighting Freeza's lackies who are not even worth Goku's time. They'r...

Re: Official Announcement Thread & Discussion

Piccolo really needs some love. I think it's time to introduce a Namek god. Well, if Freeza can become near-Beerus level with a few months of training, I don't see why Piccolo can't. I feel like way too many people are missing why this works for Freeza but doesn't really apply to other characters. ...
