Re: Dragon Ball Super Movie #2: "Super Hero" Coming 2022! (Toriyama Scripting!)
If this is a more silly movie about superheroes and down to earth plots, Freeza would have no place in this film. Its best to leave him sitting out rather than overusing him.

Re: Toriyama's Ruthless Vegeta
Vegeta only killed those people in the stands so Goku would fight him. It's ok to kill innocent people if you're trying to prove a point, and he knew they would be wished back with the Dragon Balls anyway. I would do the same thing if I were in Vegeta's shoes.

She shouldn't. There's no reason for her to go Super Saiyan.

Re: Dragon Ball Super Movie #2: "Super Hero" Coming 2022! (Toriyama Scripting!)
I don't think he'll appear in this movie. He was just in Broly and he doesn't need to be in every movie going forward.
The plot of this movie also seems more down to earth and less about power hungry maniacs like other movies, so I don't think Freeza would be a good fit for this movie anyway.

Re: How come we haven’t gotten more information on what exactly Super Saiyan God is?
Super Saiyan 3 was just something Goku came up with and Gotenks did as well. Obviously there were no legends of Super Saiyan 3 before so I believe Goku was the first one to just get that transformation by pushing his limits.

Re: Are we running out of planets?
The problem is that whenever we see generic Freeza soldiers, they all have different designs make them look like they're from different worlds. I doubt all these generic Freeza soldiers all originally came from the same planet, they look like they were gathered across planets for years from differen...

Re: Toriyama's Ruthless Vegeta
Honestly I think it's flanderization and character regression, it's the same way Goku is written more stupid/clueless than he was in DBZ even in Toriyama's manga. Both Goku and Vegeta's characters are noticeably flanderized to the point where it feels like the writers only remember the basic traits ...

Re: Does Roshi legally own the land his island is on? Does he pay rent?
The thing is we know Roshi has no real job (he also doesn't compete in the Earths tournaments anymore where he could get prize money), but we see his house is packed with food, magazines, a TV, and other household stuff. Where is he getting the money to pay for this stuff? Doesn't he have taxes? He ...

Re: Anyone surprised the original run of Dragon Ball/DBZ/GT only lasted about 10 years?
The real reason Tracey doesn't appear anymore is he's not from any of the games so the writers have no reason to show him. Most of the kids watching the show today had never watched Orange Islands (obviously, that saga aired in 1998-1999), and since he's not from any games he has no reason to be sho...

Does Roshi legally own the land his island is on? Does he pay rent?
I always wondered if Roshi legally owned the land his island is on, or just randomly built a house there on his own. Did he officially purchase the land from whatever province its located in? Does he pay rent/mortgage for the house? In real life you can't just claim an island, let's say off the baha...

Re: Are we running out of planets?
I guess. Remember though they only considered planets with beings that could fight, so planets that just have animal life or dinosaurs or whatever probably weren't counted. It's times like this the old DBZ anime showed Freeza destroying random planets and Vegeta/Nappa blowing up planet Arlia actuall...

Re: Should the Super manga and anime divert into completely different stories now?
Yeah it's very unlikely we'll see either of Goku/Vegeta's new forms in the upcoming movie, because most people who follow the anime will have no idea where they came from. So either Goku/Vegeta aren't going to do much fighting in the new movie, or at least not go above Blue, or else they'll just ign...

Re: Anyone else find the RRA arc hard to rewatch?
I wonder why Toriyama made it mostly a Goku solo story. Yamcha, Bulma, Roshi and Krillin are all sidelined the entire arc except for small stuff in the Blue arc.
It's weird because even back then he was treated the other characters as background.

Re: At what point in the story did the characters look and feel their most powerful?
Boo saga. When Boo started screaming the fabric of the universe was splitting apart (both in the time chamber and then with Super Boo against Vegito), it really gave the impression the characters reached the apex of power.

Re: "Live Action Dragon Ball Z Movie"
Probably because these days you have to "up the evil." All villains in fiction kill people, it's expected. A villain killing an innocent human is "par the course" these days. You have to go even above that to be truly evil these days, and do something truly despicable. Dr. Gero, ...

Re: I hope the next movie is the end of the Super era
The "Super" name doesn't need to be dropped or rebranded. We had Dragonball and DBZ for the first two series, then GT. Super reflects everything new about the series, and you have subtitled like Heroes for the videogame-centric stuff. The last thing we need is more confusing subtitles for ...

Re: I hope the next movie is the end of the Super era
This is a rather odd thread, you're posting as if "Super" only reflects the time period between DBZ and EOZ. If they make stories post-EOZ, they'll probably continue to use the "Super" name. I mean why wouldn't they? Why would we need a new subtitle? I’m not suggesting they use ...
