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

The Energy batteries things sounds like 17 losing a lot of his power in a definitive way, maybe, If leaks are true, he'll be more of a normal human and no more a warrior? He could lose most of his battle power, basically dropping to Yamcha or Krillin level, him dying is unlikely, though after this ...

Re: About Gohan in the TOP

Gohan is "Goku with a heart". He is a typical hero in a series where the main characters are extremely selfish. His problems are that his fights are painfully boring, since he's basically a worse version of Goku. But I disagree that he's a boring character. In fact, Gohan and 17 managing t...

Re: U7 Final Four

Yeah, count me in on the #17 congratulations wagon. Seriously, the guy deserved it after being totally forgotten back in the Boo arc. And game developers are taking note also. #17 (ToP arc) is now a DLC character in Xenoverse. That's saying something. Here's hoping Roshi will follow suit. They've G...

Re: Should Dragonball continue as a series or as movies?

You can't make competent use of this current cast in movies though. A show can either set up an adventure or some team of bad guys to fight (around 10). Otherwise everyone would just get glorified cameos fighting insignificant dudes while Goku and Vegeta shine. And yes you could argue that's also th...

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

He owes Krillin but I'm pretty sure killing the person who absorbed you also gives brownie points. I'm not sure if cell self distructing actually killed 17 considering cell regenerated so maybe 17 did too. Although obviously Gohan ended up killing cell and 17 anyways with the Kamehameha. Either way...

Gohan hesitating sounds bad, might have to wait and see the scene in context.
Doesn't explain what Toppo is doing in 124 though.

Re: How Super makes OLD techniques NEW again

17's BARRIER - I've always thought the androids were unique in that they were equipped with defensive barriers, but I don't believe it was ever used offensively in Z. For the record, he's "human", he's not equipped with anything, he came up with his moves. No other android has used this b...

Re: Dragon Ball Super: TV Ratings Discussion Thread

Lol.

It did air on the 24th.
Stop saying it didn't affect the ratings in any way.

LOOK AT ONE PIECE'S SCORE. :p

5.0% . DBS lost 0.6% from last week, One Piece's fall was enormous, it lost twice that.

Pokemon airs on thursday, so yeah makes sense it would beat it.

In the manga, 17 killed Gohan alone. So 18 wasn't needed.

I can't be the only one who's sick of them having people revert to weaker levels of power just so they can old school Z movie it by having "big epic" transformation sequences for Blue and Ultimate over and over again. Seriously, I feel like there's a "Holy shit! Here's SSBlue guise!&...

Re: Super Episode 121 (23 December 2017)

Absolutely loved the episode.

Finally got teamwork.

Aniraza was impressive and scary for once. Everyone was in danger.

17 paid the price, but 18 saved him in a very touching moment.

The end with 17 was amazing.

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

Loved this episode, but I got one question that may or may not be answered: When 17 used his energy field to get closer to Aniraza, did he focus all of that energy to his fist to defeat Aniraza? That's how it seemed to me. But yeah, 17 is so badass now and it makes you understand why Japan is featu...

Re: Dragon Ball Super: TV Ratings Discussion Thread

The fact it's under 5% isn't super relevant.

What matters is how far the next one of the list is.

Pokemon was really close last time, so this is good news this week.

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

I don't understand that at all. In the present, 17 was really close to what he is now. The only thing that changed is his pride and cockiness, and it certainly isn't a big loss that he discarded this aspect of his personality. Also, 17 simply wasn't given anybody worthy to fight so far. That's not h...

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

Goku's choice of transformation is the conclusion. Toyotarõ didn't have Goku turn SSJ3 just because. It's the classic Dragon Ball visual representation to give us a power scale. I also didn't write level but realm which throws a much wider net because the fight was interrupted. You could make the a...

17 adds a lot to the table in terms of abilities and personality, his scenes have been amazing. He's a lot of fun. Keeping a powerful dude that doesn't rely on transformations would be a breath of fresh air with 3 saiyans and Frieza left. Sadly yeah it's not looking good, he's falling out of the are...
