Re: The end of "Akira Toriyama canon"
Which is something one should question, why would someone not approach this on the basis of "have fun" when this is all that there is to it?

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...

It's Shin Budokai - Another Road. I was playing it on a quality higher than 4K in the PlayStation Portable emulator.

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...

Re: Dragon Ball Super: Manga Chapter 103 - Official Discussion Thread
Well, the last panels not having any dialogues whatsoever were cool. Not something that happens often, in fact, off the top of my head, I only remember it happening in the end of Majin Buu saga, and given the current circumstances, it was a nice touch by Toyotaro. Shouldn't Granolah be involved in t...

Re: Akira Toriyama Passes Away.
Those looking to admire new-but-not-so-new Toriyama images can do so right here. Miki Dai is being kind enough to share them with us, so I'll try to post them in that thread.

Well, we finally have a few new tidbits about this game, courtesy of Miki Dai himself: Miki Dai wrote : The version of Mira before the modifications was my original design, but I am ashamed to show it to you now because I am not very good at it. Let's just say that the teacher revised it, removed th...

Re: SS3 Vegeta
Not in Majin Buu saga, but by the time Movie 14 happens, sure. It would have made a lot more sense Super Saiyan 3 than a randomly powered-up Super Saiyan 2, even if it's "rage-boosted", it shouldn't be enough to close the gap between its multiplier and Super Saiyan 3's (and the same goes f...

Re: Akira Toriyama Passes Away.
Dragon Ball had some influence on the latest Prince of Persia game.
Is there anything that hasn't yet been blessed by Toriyama/Dragon Ball?

Re: The end of "Akira Toriyama canon"
Guess we're about to find out whether Dragon Ball is finite or not.
Toriyama's Dragon Ball definitely is, and it's over now. But Shueisha's Dragon Ball? We shall see.

Re: The end of "Akira Toriyama canon"
Well, Golden Freeza isn't a particularly inspired idea to begin with, but I would argue that it works better with him than Cooler since it better plays to Freeza's character: It makes sense that a petty and vain person like him would want his new form to be gold. Plus there's the implication that h...

Re: Dragon Ball Without Its Creator
The conversation will continue, no matter how futile, because what folks are arguing for is not what they claim. What they're aruging for their personal vision to be the definitive interpretation of Dragon Ball. And that's never going to happen for anyone through online arguments. But it's highly p...
