Re: The end of "Akira Toriyama canon"

I think a new Tournament of Power could work easily enough and stand out from its predecessor if it has some kind of villain subplot going on within it, like Piccolo Jr in the 23rd Budokai, or the kind of stuff you often saw in stories of old fighting games, like someone using the fighters' energy f...

Re: "Dragon Ball Z: Kakarot" Official Discussion Thread

I actually bought Kakarot just due to this 23rd Budokai DLC and its first confirmed details (like playable Tenshinhan). Although I guess now I'm waiting to see if he will also be playable in the main game to decide whether I start playing the main story now or wait for the DLC release.

Re: "Dragon Ball Super" Series Official Announcement & Discussion Thread

Considering all the denials "It's not a remake", "It's not a manga adaptation", "it's not a sequel"... maybe it's actually something like Digimon Tamers or Pretty Cure Splash Star? A series carrying the "Dragonball" title but featuring completely new character...

Re: Why has DB gone so crazy with new forms?

It's because ratings go through the roof when there is a new transformation and toys with new transformations sell well. They're just giving the people what they want. They can do the same without all that though, they sold DBZ merch for years when no new series were being produced. Kai got initial...

Re: Is there any reason why the Moro arc hasn't gotten any merchandise yet?

At least as far as games or any voiced content goes (and even colored content too to a lesser extent), they're probably only going ahead once there's an adaptation. They probably don't want a Jojo situation where the games and merchandising give colors and voices to characters that then clash with w...

Re: "Dragon Ball Super (Manga)" Official Discussion Thread

If we do move to EOZ I'll be so mad if Trunks and Goten still don't fight. When they are adults there's no reason to keep them out of the action, they better be involved in the next arc in some way since they refused to do anything with them as kids. That's actually the big reason I'd guess they wa...

Re: "(Super) Dragon Ball Heroes" Official Discussion Thread

I wonder how long it'll take before Moro shows up and starts copying everyone he can get his hands on. I could see him copying someone that might help him control his angel powers...somehow. I'd guess they only will add Moro when the anime returns and adapts him or if it turns out Toei confirms the...

Re: "Dragon Ball Super (Manga)" Official Discussion Thread

I'm actually enjoying how this chapter is turning out. Moro copying an Angel's power (the hand that touched Merus before getting cut off in a previous chapter) to keep up with Goku but then his body just falling apart due to that, after a brief seemingly even match. Goku even compares him with Sagan...

Re: "Dragon Ball Super (Manga)" Official Discussion Thread

I don't know why he's doing all this buildup to MUI when we've already seen it. This is like building up Goku going Super Saiyan against Android 19. I think it's really dumb but I'll keep my opinions to myself until the full chapter releases The main issue is that there was an entire arc in the mid...

I’m fucking pissed and dissapointed that we didn’t see Goku attain MUI in today’s manga draft pages... I’m very shocked and NEGATIVELY surprised. I would’ve at least liked to have gotten some confirmation on it... Now ofcourse that in no way is proof that it won’t happen.. But I would’ve just loved...

The last few issues have just been... Annoying. I don't think an on going manga is the best format for Dragon Ball anymore. Why can't they stick to television specials and movies like Lupin the Third? Lupin does that because it gives a lot of creative control to different directors and writers, wit...

Well, that's the thing, if Doctor W. was revealed to be Doctor Uiro, that would be at least interesting. But I highly doubt that's the case. If nothing else, it's originally Uiro, so why would they be referencing the English dub name? "ウィロー" is the standard Katakana spelling for "Wil...

Re: Calling it! Vegeta is going to get Moro’s energy stealing technique + Immunity to it aswell!

I expect this and I'd guess it's where 7-3 will return too, since he's presumably immune to energy draining techniques like the Earth androids. Well, they shouldn’t be able to sense SSBE Vegeta’s energy since it has God Ki (Or at least again, it SHOULD have God Ki) But then again, this is the Manga,...

But what about just in the realm of physical/hand-to-hand combat? Yes, even in that Ribranne isn't anywhere near the strongest So who is? I haven't seen that many who focus on that aspect.

I'm actually really surprised that they aren't airing the promo anime subbed, & possibly dubbed, through a streaming service in the game itself &/or through Crunchyroll. It WOULD at least be a selling point in the game. I don't think they're updating the home game to keep up with the Arcade...

Re: Why does the Garlic Jr. filler arc exist?

As far as going with a movie villain goes it seems like the anime staff was experimenting with a stronger mix of movie and tv at the time.

Re: A state higher than Ultra Instinct?

I don't think Toriyama cares much about Ultra Instinct considering what we've seen. His lineart for the form was basically a copy of his art for Super Saiyan God and in the Broly movie it basically didn't exist. So, I fully expect we'll see forms introduced above it since he doesn't seem particularl...
