Kanzenshuu

Just heard the news today. I can't put into words how I feel about Dragon Ball. Out of everything I've watched/read, it's one of the most re-watchable/re-readable and never gets old. Like a lot of other people, it was my introduction to anime and manga and still remains one of my favorites. This jus...

What if it's a new series, but it's live action?

I haven't felt like this since I first heard about Dragon Ball AF.

nearly 9 years later and I'm no longer a Newbie. woo hoo!

I think it's mentioned in Daizenshuu 7 that the difference between the Kaio and Kaioshin is that the Kaioshin look over the living and the dead and the Kaios only look over the living. So the Dai Kaio and Dai Kaioshin are the head honchos of their groups, respectively. I think it's weird that they a...

About the original quesiton on this post: There are rumors that the SSJ Rose is based on a fanart from early 2000s, similar to the case of "El Gohan Blanco" (the white gohan in spanish) as someone had made fanarts of Gohan having a white hair mystic transformation. All of these, Deviantar...

They actually have kinda sorta. I never completed a fanfic, but I started to write one where the new and young assistant of Dai Kaioshin (a character I made up) goes rogue and helps out with the first rise of Buu. He ends up getting killed by Buu and gets reincarnated as a half-Saiyan who helps to r...

I tried to edit my last post, but I can't. Another thing I wanna add: Dragon Ball re-hashing stuff might not be new, but I can see how it can start to get old after a number of repetitions. Unless you really love the format and it'll never get old to you, then it would be nice to see things get shak...

When did you first hear about it and how/when did you progress through everything DB has to offer? I first heard about it when I was 7 in 1st grade in 1998, but didn't actually watch until 1999 on Toonami's Midnight Run when I wanted to watch cartoons after a scary movie. It was the episode where Go...

I used to think that the idea of Dragon Ball re-hashing stuff was something that only started with Super, but when you think about it, the last wholly original arc was the 21st Budokai. Everything after that has been a mixture of new stuff and re-hashed elements that's already been seen before.

I found a couple more similar images here: https://order.mandarake.co.jp/order/det ... 35&lang=zh

I'd buy it if only I knew Japanese. Too bad Viz or Crunchyroll or something doesn't put out an English version of this stuff.

Ki (or chi) is the energy that they use to do things like shoot energy blasts (like a kamehameha), fly, etc. It's where most of the character's strength comes from. I can't recall "presence" being used that much in Dragon Ball, but it sounds like when they use ki to sense when other people...

There are a lot of brutal fights to choose from, but the first that came to mind for me was Vegeta vs Frieza. It may not be the most brutal as far as getting beaten up goes, but it has a psychological element to it that no other fight has that I can think of. Vegeta was in tears by the end of it; wi...

Yeah, people are forgetting that it was Kami that pulled strings for Goku to keep his body the first time he was killed, and did the same after everyone got killed by Nappa. It's possible that after all those guys got killed again, Enma was like "A'ight nigga this time it's for keeps, stop pla...

It’s never been stated that Kaio wouldn’t be able to intervene against the artificial humans. As far as I recall, the only deities in Dragon Ball that it’s been stated aren’t allowed to intervene are the angels, and even Whis technically breaks that when he undoes Earth’s destruction. As for him no...

I've thought about this too and the only thing that makes sense to me is that it's just a plothole on Toriyama's part. There are too many people and too much time involved for something not to eventually happen to help out. It's so different to how everyone acts in the rest of Dragon Ball both befor...

Maybe "crazy" or "disappointing" would've been a better word?

As far as any of us know he's doing well, he probably lives a very comfortable and happy life with all of the money he has made from Dragon Ball. The last TV interview I remember of him was done in promotion of Battle of Gods, he was wearing a track suit like the one Gohan wears, and they didn't sh...

I just thought of something funny: What if you do fusion, wait a while, then do another fusion and have both fusions fuse. What will happen after it's time for the first fusion to unfuse? Maybe it'll create something called fission where they unfuse and everyone involved will explode and die. :lol: ...

. 2) The location where Frieza is revived is described as being the same where Trunks cut him into pieces years ago. It hasn't been elaborated on why, but maybe because you come back alive at the place you die, I guess? The Namekian Dragon Balls were like that, but I don't recall that happening wit...
