Should Super Involve battle-damage?

[HybridSaiyan]

Yeah, I'm talking about characters getting beat up to the point their Gi's are torn and ripped? ~ I don't think I could recall Super having that at the moment?

But, they're more than capable of having it in there.



Something relating to this in the Black arc?

Guys thoughts?

[ChronoTwigger]

Only Monaka costume get ripped a little, and create havoc!
Trunks "uncanny damages" was bruised top.

Of course ripped costume add drama, but so far Super didn't have real fights to death (RoF was comical). No need for such tension.
Maybe in the future (literally!).

Goku's Gi was torn away in the BOG arc.

In super we did have this moment. However for some reason these days they dont show nipples.

Oh yeah, the famous beard scene lol.

[Avok]

I hope so.

Would love to see Black's gi ripped with only the long sleeve thing left.

[Soppa Saia People]

Of course! Battle damage in action shows are like Blood in wrestling, if you over do it, it loses its luster, but balance it and it's excellent and can add drama and tension.

[buutenks]

We already had that. When goku and vegeta got out of the rosat.

[kinisking]

We need more blood and battle damage.

[Shi_Neko13]

Battle damage was always great in the old series. Really showed the progression of the fight. And I've always loved the way Toriyama drew the cracked armor, it was so realistic. If they're not gonna get bloody (since it's a Sunday morning anime now), at least tear their clothes and armor up and show some scratches/bruises.

[Nejishiki]

My favorite variation of the, "cracked armor", progression of storytelling was when Gohan kicked Cell's crown in and the damage retained, presumably because Cell couldn't or didn't think to heal it in the heat of the moment.

[Lord Beerus]

I'd like to see more battle damage. I always found it a very appealing aesthetic which helped any battle seem more truly like a "Fight to the death" scenario.

[Shi_Neko13]

Vegeta vs the z-fighters is one of the best examples, he goes from full armor and tail to just the chest piece hanging on, tears all over the body suit, his tails chopped off, his eye is damaged and his back is cut open. And it rules!

[Anime Kitten]

Yes, PLEASE! I'd really love it if we got a long battle like Z-Fighters VS Vegeta, Goku VS Frieza, etc. with battle damage. We all know how damaged Goku got during the Frieza fight.

[Chuquita]

I enjoyed battle damage in Z; would really like to see it return in Super.

[Baggie_Saiyan]

Battled damaged clothes probably would take longer to draw than non I suspect so that could be a main reason of why Super as little maybe? It would have been cool sure to have more instances like how Goku looked on Namek vs Freeza, especially with his then new outfit.

[Alruneia]

Well, obviously. We don't need to have limbs flying extreme death scenes or anything, but the impact of a tough battle should be visible on the fighters.
I don't think we need something quite as heavy in a kids' show as...

...but somewhat below this level would probably be good.

Super might be a kids show but DBZ was not. Doraemon is a kids show, there should be appropriate amount of gore in battle shonen anime.

Yes. It. Was. And there is no certain amount of gore that battle shonen should have.

[sintzu]

There is no certain amount of gore that battle shonen should have.

It depends, I think there should be some blood if a character gets shot through their body like when Sorbet shot Goku or when Freeza was attacking Gohan.
