Toriyama without editorial control means he can go write a lighter and more comedic script and nobody can tell him no. I'm personally not upset about the path this film is taking as it's just so bizarre from the cgi to the plot, but I'd be lying if I said I was excited to watch it. I like Piccolo a...

I'm fascinated by how risk-taking this movie atm seems. Cynically I'm thinking they're giving Nozawa fewer lines because she's getting older and they don't want her to overwork her lungs + Toriyama without editorial control means he can go write a lighter and more comedic script and nobody can tell ...

Vegeta with that facial hair from post-3-year training in early dbs. I liked that look on him.

It's definitely frustrating to me to see Toei play favorites with One Piece and seeing DB get stuck with cgi and 3 year long hiatus from having a weekly show, but One Piece is still running weekly in Shonen Jump where DB has a monthly manga in a mostly videogame magazine and isn't even drawn or full...

I liked the Goku and Vegeta interactions, and how there was creativity in the attacks Gas used, but that's about it.

I could easily see this arc as another Toei movie from the 90's. It's not that ambitious, but gets the job done.

I mostly lurk nowadays (haven't lost interest in db itself, there just aren't any current official db projects I'm excited to theorize about), but this site's been a part of my life for a long time. The forum format with the ability to write longer posts and easily search both your own posts and gen...

I'm both surprised by how different this game is and not surprised because this tracks with the same type of different they're going for in the upcoming cgi movie; both at first glance are Goku-lite and star unlikely characters. I haven't played the game this is pulling inspiration from, but it's un...

I get they're probably holding back the big character sheets for Jump Festa, but it feels a bit tone deaf to showcase Karin and Dende at something as big as NYCC. Honestly, from the statements I doubt that we will even see anything big at Jump Festa except for new character sheets. It's only 2 mont...

I've got mixed feelings on all this. +More Piccolo is always good. +I like that Pan gets to age +I'm happy about Brolli training with Goku at Whis' place. +Some of the shots (Pan charging up, Goku's closeups) look good +Tank-top Vegeta returns! (Also cameo by Bad Man). +That Brolli's short bit in th...

It extended my participation in the fandom, for personal better or worse, as I was losing interest the few years right before BoG was announced. I thoroughly enjoyed the camaraderie from BoG to the end of weekly DBS episodes. I found a lot of what made Super fun for me was the people I hung out with...

A main visual reveal makes sense. I think they're saving their first big trailer for Jump Festa.

I haven't thought much about the movie since the initial panel about it, but I like that they're taking risks (or at least it looks like they are by what we know atm).

I feel like they're playing it so safe that it becomes too repetitive for me to get much enjoyment out of it; like they're just spinning their wheels. I wish they'd take the characters to some of these other universes and explore that. My highest excitement with an arc shouldn't be my initial expect...

I'm guessing they feel it's less risky to do this with DB and assume no matter what it'll still make a lot of money. I can't imagine them making a One Piece cgi movie because despite it being more popular than DB in Japan, OP's not as popular in the U.S. and their goal with cgi is to jump into west...

I'm curious as to how the process of producing scripts for the anime differs from this very layered method the manga uses and wondering if that could partly explain why imo the anime had higher highs and lower lows where the manga feels like it's taking the middle road and just playing it safe.

Rest in peace. Furusawa's art is some of my favorites from the era. Were his pieces ever in an artbook? I don't think he drew enough to fill a standard length artbook of his own.

Yes, he is wasted potential. I had high hopes when I first learned he had magical powers and then they dashed them pretty quickly by leaning in on the one energy drain technique, not getting creative (imo) again until Planet Moro, and not bothering to do anything fun with his personality.

In the upcoming 2022 movie. They brought attention to her in that panel and gave her an entirely new outfit + aged her up a bit; it's hard to imagine they aren't preparing her to get super saiyan.

The Brolli movie performed amazingly well, but they didn't apply that art style to everything that came after it. Heroes still looks like Yamamuro. General DB promo art still has a variety of art styles. Yes, but there is a huge cost difference between using different 2D-styles and -animators and d...
