Re: "Dragon Ball Super (Manga)" Official Discussion Thread
Since "nothing conceptually new" is an admitted exaggeration, I won't bother addressing that. Your point that "power trumps everything" is explicitly undermined by Kale eventually getting worked around by the Pride Troopers. Like Cipher said, "focusing on the Saiyans" ...

Re: "Dragon Ball Super (Manga)" Official Discussion Thread
snip snip. I kinda expected you two to be a bit disappointed,even if the chapter had some nice stuff.Even if you guys treat it as longer movies,I’ll ask your opinion on something that has been bothering me the most. There is basically nothing conceptually new (it’s an exaggeration)and potential is ...

Re: Unpopular DB opinions
The only sagas from OG Dragon Ball that I liked were the tournament sagas. Every other saga was bad to me because they were so boring. King Piccolo saga started out great but Yajirobe was a pain in the neck, and King Piccolo was a boring villain. Only sagas?That’s like more than half of series.What...

Re: "Dragon Ball Super (Manga)" Official Discussion Thread
I think its no secret that Toyo isn't the most professional mangaka out their, so I'm genuinely unsure if he'd be able to handle the insane pressures of doing chapters on a weekly basis when his still struggling with getting stuff out on a monthly one. Toriyama could get Toyotaro an editor and some...

Re: Man of Steels fight scenes were inspired by DBZ
And yet the Superman movie couldn't take a page from DBZ and take the fight out of the damned city. Zod's goal was to murder people, he's trying to keep it in the city, unlike DB where the bad guy will go along with the hero's choice to take the fight elsewhere. Besides, DB has had fights in popula...

But,no one is disputing that.The actual topic is about concept of recurring villain.You nonsensically bring that point,when that’s not what’s being discussed.Toxin45 wrote:Well at this point Frieza is the only actual recurring villain in the series.Hawk9211 wrote:Wut?Toxin45 wrote: Um I didn't make this thread someone else did.

The Formula getting anything new is kinda getting old. Reading through the whole thread I don't know if you're trolling or not.Your whole argument is basically non existent and not even an argument.You're just describing what happened when the thread is why there shouldn't be a recurring villain an...

Re: What's so bad about the idea of a recurring villain?
Dragon Ball isn't a superhero story. Comparing DB, a martial arts fantasy, with a superhero/detective story isn't a good comparison. So because Pilaf spouts orders to 2 incompetent lackies it's fundamentally the same as the Red Ribbon Army? Similarly are you arguing that not bringing Bulma along is...

Re: Official "DB Super 2018 Movie" Discussion Thread
I've always given Super the benefit in the doubt. If there is one thing that somehow bothers me, it's not the animation quality of whatever. It's the fact they have to take into concililation a big part of their audience has matured over time, have seen other anime etc. So it wouldn't be bad the st...

Re: Official "DB Super 2018 Movie" Discussion Thread
That's not forced and I wouldn't say shallow as revenge plots are common. We know that Frieza could be revived and we know that he would still want revenge so it wasn't forced at all just unoriginal and repetitive at worst.. An all powerful God of Destruction who had never been mentioned who just h...

Re: Official "DB Super 2018 Movie" Discussion Thread
So that almost entirely superfluous and boring battle against Freeza's army couldn't be considered filler? I mean, it had as much impact on the plot as anything that happened in the middle section of BOG, in fact, I would say that it had even less impact. That was an action sequence that involved m...

Reason for hit not trying to kill jiren:
In manga,killing will result in entire team being disqualified.Wonder if we might see the rule being actively imposed.
