Re: The Original Movie 14.
Other than the "Beerus is the reason Saiyans are evil" thing, which we definitely don't need it, I think I would like to see how that would turn out. We still don't know if it was Toei or Toriyama that presented the idea of Multiverse, do we? Unfortunately, there's no interview talking abo...

The Original Movie 14.
So I compiled everything we know about the original version of the movie and decided to know which version you like best: • Beerus -- Lizard vs cat. Beerus originally had a lizard-like form, but at Toriyama-sensei‘s idea, he ultimately became an Egyptian-style cat character. ------------------------...

Re: Justin Chatwin apologizes for Dragonball Evolution
Toriyama said he suddenly got the script. He wasn't there from the beginning.

Re: The Super Saiyan God prophecy in the future timelines
It seems that, in Dragon Ball, history is already written. Oracle Fish "predicted" Beerus would fight because it was predetermined. Trunks/Cell going to that timeline was supposed to happen. In the timelines where Trunks/Cell didn't appear, Oracle Fish didn't have any premonition at all. W...

Re: Dragon Ball Super Strength Discussion Thread
The manga just treats SSGSS as the "next stage" of Super Saiyan God, like SS2 and 3 are to the base SS. Beerus even calls it "just a mere power up from Super Saiyan God". https://i.imgur.com/W96m7b8.png So I'm guessing they just trained for it. They kept the Super Saiyan God tra...

Re: The end of "Akira Toriyama canon"
Dragon Ball Z gave none, but Toriyama sort of did . Kaioshin's role is not to erradicate evil in the Universe. They are there to observe the cosmos, and as the Gods of Creation, they are there to create planets and lives. ( More on Kaioshins' role here ) Freeza would wipe out lives, but you have to ...

Re: "(Super) Dragon Ball Heroes" Official Discussion Thread
While a shift in management would certainly explain Dragon Ball Heroes' sudden "change of heart" (the last "big deal" I consider it did was giving Goku Black Super Saiyan Rosé 2, and that was in 2021), do we have a source for that?

Re: Frieze's role more obvious than it seems
We don't know if Toriyama's intentions were that. And given how things have played out so far, I don't think it was. There has been no allusion whatsoever toward that intention/role. I do hope Shueisha try to incorporate most of the stuff from Neko Majin eventually, though. It would be a huge waste ...

Re: If Zamasu came back
If the Makaio/Makaioshin ever get officially introduced( doubtful , being that Toriyama has passed away), Zamasu should be name-dropped by them at least as a callback. In retrospect, Makaio/Makaioshin should have been named-dropped in Future Trunks saga. So even with Toriyama, chances were always s...

Re: Super Saiyan 2 Appreciation Thread
It would've been great if Super Saiyan 2 could have made an appearance in Dragon Ball Super Broly and Dragon Ball Super Super Hero. The artstyles of those movies would definitely deliver us some great visuals of that form. I'm not really expecting it but there's Dragon Ball Daima to look forward to ...

Re: SPARKING! ZERO - Visual Roster Checker
In fact, I'm not seeing Dragon Ball Super Trunks with Super Saiyan 2. This will be a huge mistake if he doesn't have it, even if the anime screwed up by not making it any different than his Super Saiyan. It was his go-to transformation for pretty much the entire saga. Goku uses it against Trunks, Za...

Re: Writers - What Can/Can't They Do?
As long as another writer is consistent with Toriyama's world and characters to the extent it feels organic I don't see an issue. But at what point can we decide it doesn't feel organic anymore? For example, I draw the line at quantity. If we keep constantly getting serious stuff, then yeah, Dragon...

Writers - What Can/Can't They Do?
Inspired by something I saw, I want to ask: how much do you think a(nother) writer can put their own qualities into somebody else's work? Let me clarify: It is well known that the likes of Bardock TV Special is not something Toriyama would normally do, because he was not known for writing serious st...
