Re: What’s everyone’s opinion on how the manga has so far handled the Universe Survival arc compared to the anime?
It's a fun chaotic mess, but that's just hiding that so far it's nothing more than a condensed, less entertaining version of it's anime counterpart. Essentially this. It's definitely nailing the Battle Royale aspect I feel better than the anime version, but there's been nothing so far that gets me ...

Re: What’s everyone’s opinion on how the manga has so far handled the Universe Survival arc compared to the anime?
Comparing where the manga is up to from where the anime was at the time, I prefer the anime a bit more as it was overall just more enjoyable. The fights overall were more engaging, I cared more about the characters, and I like the interactions more there too. But I don't dislike the ToP in the manga...

Re: What character will Super step on next when it comes back?
Absolutely nothing, that's the problem. Sure but the opening statement says Goten got stepped on by Super when it didn’t. Goten’s issue was that he was ignored all throughout Super. Sole fact he was kept from growing up was ridiculous. Even if they didn't feel like doing anything with his character...

Re: Vegeta's incompetent
The series tells us Vegeta is this "battle genius and master tactician" but in Z, and in both manga and anime versions of Super so far, he's rarely ever portrayed as a genius combatant, contradictory to what it wants us to believe. In the Buu arc he was smart enough to fall under Babidi's...

Re: Vegeta's incompetent
I don't know why it's surprising for him to charge at the enemy head on with "Muh Saiyan Pride." Battle strategy isn't Vegeta's strong suit he's never depicted as a battle genius. He's charged in head on at the enemy in every single fight he's in. I think in a way that's sort of the probl...

Re: Is Goku a hero in Super?
DBS's version is not a hero in any modern understanding of the term. But he can be classed a hero like Achilles from Greek myth. Just a ridiculously OP warrior the story's about who's venerated by his peers. Even characters like that had motivations and things to fight for. Goku in Super doesn't re...

Lol of course he’s a hero. Not one in the traditional sense however but Goku is a hero. But in the traditional traditional sense, he's unquestionably a hero. The ones defined by qualities like bravery and determination, rather than how much time you spent sucking up to authority, playing with your ...

Re: What character will Super step on next when it comes back?
What did Super do to Goten? Regardless, nothing they’ve done so far can’t be fixed as Gohan for example has come quite far from where he used to be. Though I’m also curious on what did Super do to Gohan that was so bad as well

Re: Recurring Villains discussion
I think a recurring cast of antagonists is fine, if handled well. However, I think it should become a rule of thumb, that with the exception of maybe Freeza, none of the villains that were obliterated and killed should be recurring characters. Characters like Hit and Jiren are probably the perfect ...

Re: "Dragon Ball Super (Manga)" Official Discussion Thread
I feel like that's something this chapter kind of lacked in specifically. For Jiren's big introductory bad guy chapter, it really could have been handled better, at the very least in terms of panelling. The manga isn't portraying Jiren as a bad guy though. He was presented as very heroic, almost ca...

Probably best describes how I feel about it. Manga ToP is just dull/boring to me so far, but I don't find it terrible.

Re: Official "DB Super 2018 Movie" Discussion Thread
Kale and Caulifla are pretty unique compared to the other Saiyans we've seen in the past. Their dynamic together was a lot of fun to watch during the ToP. I have mixed feelings with Frost. Even though I would have preferred the good guy Freeza approach during the Champa arc, I actually do kinda lik...

Re: "Dragon Ball Super (Manga)" Official Discussion Thread
Found the chapter to be pretty meh. Nothing offensive by any means nor would I call it terrible, but it's just been boring. Art was wonky at times as well. I did the Time Shift, and Jiren baiting Hit but the actual fighting was pretty lackluster to me and so I wasn't all that invested in it.

Re: Vegeta should be phased out now
I don't think he should be phased out, but I do wish they'd do something more interesting with him. Like the way his character is when it comes to his "rivalry" with Goku makes him very boring to me. Going into more depth with Vegeta being a mentor with Cabba could be a neat way to make hi...
