Re: Adult Swim + Toonami LATAM channel announced - Possibility of DB airing there.

I was just thinking about something like this the other day. If there was a 24/7 Toonami/AS channel I would leave it on 24/7 just as background noise. I hope the US gets something similar.

Re: What if Masako Nozawa dies? (God forbid)

Goku would be recast. This is a franchise that makes too much money to be halted by the death of one VA, as cold as that is to say.

Re: Racism and the Dragon Ball fandom

I've not personally witnessed racism happening in places of Dragon Ball discourse, but that's only my personal experience and also has to do with the places I choose to engage. There's not racism on Kanzenshuu (to my knowledge) but a Dragon Ball fan who talks about DB on 4chan may have an entirely d...

Re: When Cartoon Network reaches its end How do you think you will feel you about it as a Dragon Ball Fan?

I haven't watched anything on CN in a long time. I do keep up with Adult Swim though, there's a lot of great shows in the Adult Swim block. Unfortunately a few of my faves just got cancelled but I hope they make a lot more seasons of Smiling Friends. The last CN shows I really kept up with were Adve...

Re: "Dragon Ball Kai" Continuity?

I don't think it creates a "new canon" unless you want it to. I personally choose to view DB's canon as whatever Toriyama was most involved in, so mine goes: DB manga (all of DB and Z) -> Battle of Gods movie -> Resurrection F movie -> Super anime starting at U6 tournament -> Broly movie ...

Re: Which other timeskip could work as a midquel?

Then Gohan being rusty during Boo arc wouldn't make much sense. Not necessarily. Being rusty isn't the same as being incapable of fighting period. You can use Gohan for fights and use said fights to establish that he's become weaker, the issue is making sure his opponents are scaled appropriately s...

Re: Would you like to hear again Kikuchi's score in an animated project?

I think they should let new composers get a shot at this franchise instead. If they reused the Kikuchi score again I wouldn't exactly complain. I do love that old score.

The seven years between Cell and Majin Boo? Then Gohan being rusty during Boo arc wouldn't make much sense. I like the idea of a timeskip midquel inbetween DB and Z. Can make old characters like Krillin/Yamcha/Ten/Chaozu/Yajirobe/Launch relevant again as well as bring back more of a focus on choreo...

Re: The idea of Redeeming Nappa. How do you feel about this?

This feels like a scenario for a video game moreso than main continuity. I feel like Granola arc somewhat sets up the idea that Goku and Bardock meeting could be plausible, but I generally agree with what you're saying in that I'm not sure how to make the meeting happen in a way that doesn't seem g...

LOL.

I always figured he's still Prince cause that's what he was called before and he was never coronated so he can't really be King. Just Vegeta holding on to one of the last surviving pieces of his ethnic identity I guess.

Re: Why is Toei so obsessed in making Goku dumb in DBS and DBS movies

My explanation as for why Goku seems to get a little smarter during Buu arc but then goes back to being dumb again is that his brain damage is adding up :lol: , only so many times you can get hit in the head by planet busters without consequence. He will be a stoner as an old man to cope with the co...

Re: Goku Staying Dead Was Perfect

I feel pretty confident that the "attracting bad guys" thing is just something Toriyama made up at the last minute to explain why Gohan should be the main character now. It's not in character at all for Goku. Goku doesn't just attract bad guys, he intentionally creates/antagonizes them for...

Re: Anyone find it odd that Goku and Vegeta are just ok with Frieza running wild?

Vegeta is very much not okay with it. He brings it up to Goku in the Broly movie. Goku doesn't care because he's shown time and time again that he's okay with letting murderers go free if they will give him a good fight later. For example when he asks Krillin to spare Vegeta, or when he shows Freeza...

This reminds me of this another unofficial English dub made by this organization from the U.S. called Boys and Girls' club where one guy from these forums worked at I thought of that too!!!!!! Wow time flies. This appears to be less of a dub and more of a parody/abridged sort of deal. Like a series...

Re: Reasons you want the weekly anime back.

Ah okay I misunderstood, I usually consider "weekly anime" as a term to describe the type of show that airs EVERY week like DBZ, One Piece, Boruto, etc.

I would like it to be seasonal but air once a week, yes.

Re: Does Cell always be forever better than Freeza?

He has Freeza's DNA plus the potential for zenkai boosts from his Saiyan DNA, so probably? Or maybe it's somewhere between the two, like he can advance faster than Saiyans but not faster than Freeza's race.
