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

Except for Goku's face (which might just be the result of Toyotaro choosing to have the bang of Goku's hair standing so we can see his face) and something about Vegeta that I still can't put my finger on it (not his whole drawing, just something), I think the art is perfectly fine. Piccolo, Broly ...

Re: Dragon Ball Daima: Episode 18 - Official Discussion Thread



I am a bit torn this week. The series is great when telling stories… there was virtually no story this week, just pandering. It’s the same problem I had with Granolah arc.
Just action figures fighting.

The character-writing and story is a lot more interesting in the Granolah arc than what we ...

Re: Unpopular DB opinions


I think there's a middle ground and minutia there that's being ignored, because (often? always?) these discussions get reduced down to extremes.

As Number One Moro Stan Mike VegettoEX Kanzenshuu LaBrie, I'd love to see an animated spin on that arc. I absolutely adored all the characters, their ...

Re: Do New Forms Actually Sell Merchandise?



What changed in him when he acquired Super Saiyan Blue, etc? Answer: Nothing. These transformations are completely empty, character and story-wise. And worse, they're magic ass-pulls to kill a seemingly impossible conflict quickly and effortlessly to the detriment of the story.

Re: Vegeta has no place in the story anymore

If anything, didn't the Moro and Granolah arcs prove the exact opposite?

I've seen recurring threads on this site discuss at length Vegeta's "problematic" redemption and how he's seemingly never held accountable for his actions (and the character's apparent lack of guilt for his crimes). And then ...

He also heard from King Kai that Goku lost to Beerus (despite having SS3), so he knew the form would not change things against him anyway.

Sure, like Vegeta in a fit of rage could think that clearly.

For all we know he could have ditched the form after Daima (IIRC isn't BoG years after Daima ...

Let Vegeta and Tamagami #2 build up a relationship of some sort, have Vegeta feel threatened by him somehow, have Tamagami #2 understand how to read Vegeta and get on his nerves. Anything so that the fight actually feels like it's a climax of something, rather than just a box being checked off ...

Re: Dragon Ball Daima Strength Discussion Thread


Tamagami 2 and SS2 Vegeta were evenly matched. So Tamagami 2 is above Cell saga SS2 Gohan's level and after getting a boost by Neva he's stronger than SS2 Vegeta. Then Surprisingly Vegeta goes SS3 and very easily overpowers him. Now I wonder how strong SS3 Vegeta is. I bet he's probably still ...

Re: Dragon Ball Daima: Episode 11 - Official Discussion Thread



My biggest gripe with Daima so far is the soundtrack. Aside from the great opening music, I'm not really connecting with any of the OSTs. Every DB series has some really good instrumental songs that I ocasionally go back to listen, but I'm not feeling that with Daima.


Does this mean it's as ...

No? He has the gel aura still and Vegeta implies Goku's mastery of the form was unattainable.

Yes. It's a burst so it makes sense it has an aura still for the instant he activates it.


Still not supposed to be short bursts of CSSB tho. Vegeta states that CSSB was beyond what he could do, so ...

Re: "Sparking! ZERO" Official Announcement & Pre-Release Discussion Thread


Stuff like Rage Trunks, Blue Kaioken, Blue Evolved and True Golden Freeza were always slight twists/variants on existing forms rather than all-new transformations, so I prefer them just being integrated into the moveset if we're gonna have them. That seems to be what they've done here for the most ...

So the chapter is out and it looks like Gohan Beast is on UI Goku's level. Its hard to say if he's stronger or not when Goku was briefly stated to have advantage over him because of his experience and Goku also ended their match quickly. Gohan Beast was only able to land hits on UI Goku when he ...

Re: Dragon Ball Super Strength Discussion Thread

Well, this will certainly generate some discussions and I guess it remains to be seen where they will ultimately go regarding Vegeta's power, but in this modern Dragon Ball world where every major player has their own thing/power, I just find it hard to believe that they would drop Ultra Ego.

Re: Dragon Ball Super Strength Discussion Thread


Honestly? It felt like Goku was just so shocked by Gohan's powered up strikes that he went out of UI. He went right back at it as if nothing happened afterwards.

Otherwise, yeah, Gohan's power is reeeeeally up there.

What bugged me the most was Vegeta not using Ultra Ego at all against Gohan ...

Well, the full leaked chapter is out. In the end, the whole thing just felt like a sparring match.

Re: "Sparking! ZERO" Official Announcement & Pre-Release Discussion Thread

I could be wrong, but isn't each transformation taking up a different slot the best case scenario? Obviously, the current roster will not be the way we saw in the trailer. We will have a Goku for each era and the transformations will appear once you select him. It will be more streamlined

As far as the manga goes, I think people overblown the little moments where Goku might not come across as the smartest guy in the room

Goku overcame enemies through his battle prowess or outsmarted Vegeta in pretty much every manga arc up until this point. He broke Hit's technique by learning from ...

Despite the line about Cell Max being an enemy that perhaps not even Goku and Vegeta would defeat, in the context of the manga the implications are slightly different. This was said by Gohan, but the last time Gohan and Piccolo saw Goku and Vegeta was in the fight against Moro, so both are not aware ...

Re: Dragon Ball Super Strength Discussion Thread

I think it's easy to assume that Piccolo's words shouldn't be taken at face value here, especially when you take the entire movie in context.

The Gammas are shown to be relatively equal to Ultimate Gohan, who has been consistently portrayed in Super as below SSB Goku/Vegeta. Even assuming that his ...
