Re: Dragon Ball Super: Manga Chapter 103 - Official Discussion Thread
It's a bit of a 'whatever' chapter, but I felt like the ending silent montage was done well and captured a good mood. Gokuu forgetting who Pan is is such a bad and pointless moment, it doesn't really do or say anything and isn't even funny. Hopefully everyone on Toyo-tarou's team gets to rest for a...

Re: Dragon Ball Without Its Creator
Just thinking, with the Manga it's credited as Story by: Toriyama. If it continues past his creative input (not sure how far his artistic input is left in this run) will it still be credited as Story By, or once (if) Toyotaro takes over 100% will it just be credited to him? The credits will likely ...

Re: Writers - What Can/Can't They Do?
That original 1984-1995 comic is always going to be there, so as a viewer and writer myself, I always want to see other creators given the space and opportunities to make works that excite them to create. I think that an original creator should push those other creators to take their ideas further. ...

Re: Dragon Ball Without Its Creator
It's going to feel odd without him around. However, the series will move on without him. Bandai and Shueisha still have plenty of stuff to milk the series with. Series like Kamen Rider as an example, was able to do new stuff without the original creator alive. Sorry for the late reply, but the exam...

Re: The end of "Akira Toriyama canon"
For the record, Takeda took over just as Perfect Cell appeared, so unless Kondou was pulling a Torishima by telling Toriyama what to do even after he had left Dragon Ball, then Gohan becoming the lead wouldn't have been his idea.

Re: The end of "Akira Toriyama canon"
Toriyama's writing suffers most when he's trying too hard to be subversive. His ideas of subverting 'generic' ideas of right-and-wrong wind up becoming their own codified 'rule', so by trying to break the 'rules' of general writing and storytelling he's only further solidifying his story as followin...

Yes. Jako was the last comic that Toriyama drew himself, too.eledoremassis02 wrote: ↑Sat Mar 16, 2024 4:46 pm Didn't want to start a new thread but was the last time Goku showed up in a Toriyama-drawn manga Jaco?

Re: Dragon Ball and Centrism disguised as "A Desire for works to stop being political"
He's talking about the context surrounding the times he was writing Dragon Ball, yes it may have influenced him and it is worthy of academic study but Toriyama was writing primarily for young boys who he didn't want to read that much into it. If a kid saw Freeza as a land shark it was from the infl...

Re: Justin Chatwin apologizes for Dragonball Evolution
Perhaps naming a white character Son Gokuu, based on Sun Wukong, is ill-conceived.

Re: The end of "Akira Toriyama canon"
I think the issue is that Toriyama is a limited writer and his editor at the time of the Majin Buu didn't help him improve.
Takeda literally did nothing lol

Re: The end of "Akira Toriyama canon"
Anytime the X-Men are brought up I think back to the scene in X2: X-Men United , where Bobby's mom asks him "Have you tried not being a mutant," which any queer people could tell you is the most real fucking thing ever lol. X-Men bleeds woke lefty shit, and I love it ever so much for that.

Re: Dragon Ball Without Its Creator
I feel like Super Hero could easily be stretched out. It was already pretty long as-is and much more detailed plot-wise than Broly. But yeah, the rest of the arcs as they are do not feel like they would benefit by being stretched out. Unless there was a lot of additional plot elements. Like, for ex...

I do hope that they do episode adaptions of the movies for the next series. I think that would be a fun way to flesh those out and tell them differently.

I would not remember that this film exists if the cast and crew would just stop trying to aplogize for it.

Re: Dragon Ball Without Its Creator
In Japan yes, but the anime is generally more popular internationally. We saw how much of an event the Goku vs Jiren match was in the anime, which I'm sure Shueisha noticed, and started asking how would they be able to compete with that. Okay, but that's no reason for there to be no weekly anime be...
