Kanzenshuu

Oh! Also forgot - Damn Nozawa KILLED it in this episode! I've been a critical of her performances over the last few years (acknowledging it's not remotely her fault), but something about her voice acting here totally brought Goku home. Her screams packed so much punch. I'm not sure if this was ...

For me, GT takes easy #1 spot, with Daima relatively far behind, and Super behind that.
GT felt like a true sequel, thorough character redesigns, a meaningful time skip, a really brave direction for the series to take (at that point in the franchise), an interesting choice of main characters and ...

I'm very much in the 'everything after the fight was great' camp. Wish the series continued these interactions throughout. Especially that final post-credits scene, it had some incredible character animation, I had to rewind a few of them just to take it in.

Ultimately I'm really shocked at my ...

That echoing scream at the tail-end of the Super Saiyan 4 power-up.... Man, sometimes, Nozawa really still has it.

I feel these have probably all be said but:

Show don't tell - Instead of telling us Glinds are born of trees, maybe have an episode where this is a relevant plot-point? An episode where we find a Glind being born and they have to care for it - something? I dunno, if you're gonna spend a scene ...

Well I guess I was wrong, Daima fell off. Everything after the first Tamagotchi fight has been a slow and steady decline in terms of narrative and now we just have SS4 again cause why not.
Nice to have something to enjoy for a few weeks, shame it couldn't have kept things going though. At least it's ...

God damn, we're going Super Saiyan 3? A form that's implied to be too strong for a single mortal body to maintain? Literally what was the point in making them kids?
Design-wise, I'm really into Vegeta making SS3 his own. It's interesting how dorky the super long standy-upy hair looks on an adult ...

As others have said so far, it's hard to say without Daima being a complete product. I will say it would have to totally shit the bed at this point for it to not come out on top.
With Online, I just haven't played it so I don't have much of an opinion. I will say though, some of the concepts sound ...

And that is because FUNimation skipped the rest of OG DB (after episode 14) to DBZ after their 1995 dub of Dragon Ball failed to get good syndication viewership ratings thanks to Seagull Entertainment (the company that syndicated FUNimation's 1995 DB dub) giving the series a 6:30 AM time slot on ...

For most English speaking fans, it did!

I've read this twice in the thread now. What are people talking about?

I like how Daima's weakest episode still mogs anything we've got from this franchise since the '08 Jump anime special. I get a few laughs, a well choreographed fight and good animation to boot. Hell we squeezed a Goku Fight and two Vegeta fights into one episode - This is even taking the huge blow ...

I think they're really hit and miss. Some are way too close to their adult counterparts and are pretty uninteresting as a result.
Vegeta's for example, would be really easy to fix - Get rid of the widow's peak (maybe just have a slight dip to show that it'll become one later) and get rid of them ...

This is the first episode that ended, and my reaction was literal "No!" .
Another banger but the fact that the Tamagami is right there and we're ready to go was such a painful cliffhanger to leave me on. Finally someone who can give Goku a run for his money, I'm so excited to see it.
Said it before ...

I genuinely struggle to think of something I want less.

I don't really get this complaint about the pacing, personally. If you're not on board with what Daima's doing at this point, feels kind of like a ... not Daima problem.
It's fairly laid back in its pacing, we're on a JRPG type quest, we've got our party. Some episodes are about progress (getting ...

Dragon Box footage I'm guessing?

Its important to remember that Vegeta wasn’t actually influenced by Babidi’s magic in any way shape or form, everything he did in the Buu arc was what Vegeta actually wanted to do.
This is true, but I think it'd be really cool to have something along the lines of "nuh uh, you don't get to make a ...

Original UK run of the Saiyan arc. Pretty sure it was the Gohan in the wilderness story-line. I was a huge fan of anything that looked remotely like Pokémon at this stage, so I was completely in the pocket for it. By the time the actual Nappa/Vegeta fight went down, I think I was literally jumping ...

I had to actually sign in to check this myself. Just when you thought cropped 16:9 was the worst way to view this series. Absolute mess.
