Re: Dragon Ball Fan Comic/Manga/Doujinshi Compilation


Hello.
It's been a minute since I read much of any Dragon Ball fan works, and was wondering how the scene is? I went to one of the old sources I used a while back (one of the old Facebook pages) and it was dead, so that's unfortunate. I did have a backup of the history of trunks movie manga, I ...

Re: Dragon Ball Fan Comic/Manga/Doujinshi Compilation

It's been a while since the last update. I added Super Kai and checked some links. Unfortunately a few of the sites no longer worked like for New Age and Raido :( . If anyone can find a new site for them please let me know and continue recommending comics to add to the list!

Re: Non-thread-worthy discussions

I think the time limit for group resurrections was only mentioned in the Freeza saga probably so that only those killed on Namek were resurrected and not everyone killed before like the Saiyans. It also makes sense there would be some kind of limit for individual resurrections depending how long it ...

Re: Official "Canon" Thread

Fixed. No timeline besides the original manga deserves the title of supreme canon.
Yeah the original manga is the source material and everything else in the franchise branches off from there in different continuities. I think coming up with one definitive canon isn't really possible because each ...

Re: Where will the franchise go after Super?

Numerous older series do complete or even just partial recasts when new adaptions are produced. While Dragon Ball has nominally been free from that, it's still a series that can and will inevitably be updated with a new adaption.
I was talking about similar genre or type of shonen that are more ...

Re: Where will the franchise go after Super?


No one thought Ash would beat the Pokémon Leagues and no one thought Ash would get replaced as the main character, yet those things has recently happened.
The main character is Liko.
That's true but Pokémon is a different kind of franchise than DB. It started out as a video game that explores a ...

Re: Where will the franchise go after Super?

I still wonder how much general audience demand there would be for a DB remake or series focusing on characters not Goku. A DB remake would just be the same story with a newer animation style and more censorship. Kai was just remastering and recutting Z and apparently didn't perform that well. Both ...

Re: Where will the franchise go after Super?


The manga will return when everyone involved decides that they want it to return. It's really no more complicated than that.
Well that kinda goes without saying about any product. The discussion is about if the dispute was the only reason for the delay and thinking about it as a fan and not an ...

Re: Where will the franchise go after Super?

Here's an interesting tidbit for you: Toyotaro said last year that he could continue without Toriyama, although he admitted it wouldn't be the easiest task, but he said whether or not he does isn't up to him.

That makes sense but I think that was before the dispute was resolved. We have news the ...

Re: Where will the franchise go after Super?

Things slowed down due to behind the scenes disputes between the various parties involved with the franchise. As of now, this revival has given us:
I'm not sure the dispute started by the time the anime ended. I think all we know is that it might've caused the manga to go on hiatus but not that it ...

Re: Where will the franchise go after Super?

Revivals are usually temporary and I feel the franchise has been winding down since the Super anime ended. In the eight years since then, we've only had two movies, two manga arcs and Heroes ending. I think all we'll see is the occasional anniversary project like Path to Power and Daima. I could be ...

Re: GT: 100 Years Later TV Series


To each their own, but I have long lost interest in seeing Ash Ketchum forever trapped in a 10-year old body trying to be a Pokémon Master. I would rather Dragon Ball not follow the same path and become a walking joke of how repetitive it is.
I don't think DB will ever reach that level. The ...

Re: Dragon Ball Refuses To Move Forward

The Boruto comparison is kind of funny, given how Dragon Ball GT doesn't really commit to casting its older cast aside. Gokuu remains the central focus and wins the big fights, while Boruto has had no problem saying, "Eh, fuck Naruto and Sasuke" lol

Yeah it was funny that both sequels went in the ...

Re: Dragon Ball Refuses To Move Forward

But as I've gotten older, and come to learn more about the creative process for art in general is, and Dragon Ball in particular, I understand that.....yeah, stories end at some point, and that's a good thing. Oob is Dragon Ball's ending. Oob is Son Goku's ending. I think it's an ending that works ...

Re: Should GT be remade at some point?

Are you so sure? There's so, so many unreleased doujinshi from Japan so that can't be. I also know for a fact that a French artist sent the story for Muten Roshi's back story enough to be an animated series.

There's also some very orginal things like Head Cha La.

Well a fanfic writer can take ...

Re: Should GT be remade at some point?

Of course it can happen. There are plenty of fans with fresh ideas.
To be fair, most ideas from fans are "what character or arc should be rebooted next" which isn't too different from what we've been getting. Most of the suggestions Toriyama was given throughout the revival were fan service and ...

Re: Dragon Ball Refuses To Move Forward

It's been almost 20 years since the Tarble special and every series since then has been set before EoZ. I know after every arc someone predicts the next one will finally go past EoZ but it seems more unlikely each year and now that Toriyama passed away.The Super remake will cover the rest of the ...

Re: Dragon Ball Genkida Matsuri 2026 DBS remaster, DBS galactic patrol arc, Age 1000 announced.

I mean, what story changes need to be made, exactly? If they can create a new character model for Super Saiyan Gokuu Black and assign staff to toss together a few new shots to show that off, they can do the same for literally anything else in existence. The overall story doesn't need to be changed ...

Re: Dragon Ball Genkida Matsuri 2026 DBS remaster, DBS galactic patrol arc, Age 1000 announced.

Considering the obscene amount of anime merchandise one can randomly buy at a US store/mall now, I don't think they'll consider a few small changes that big a deal. Making one story change isn't going to be a herculean task when they're already making others. If they include Super Saiyan Black ...
