Re: Is it me, or does everything else DB related have better character design?
I'd rather recolors than AF's over designed nonsense. There's beauty in simplicity. One of the defining things about Toriyama's designs is that he knew he'd have to draw some of them on nearly every single panel for weeks at a time. Goku dropped the bow on his belt early on, and come the Buu saga i...

Re: The All-Purpose "What-If " Thread
I've always had a what-if that I wanted to draft out. Probably the least original Dragon Ball idea ever, but what the heck, I'mma go with it anyway! What if Goku never existed, and what would the resulting story be like? How that might go down: [spoiler]Okay so to start, Grandpa Gohan would still be...

Re: Will Dragon ever get a true 100% reanimation?
Not to mention Dragon Ball is kinda long even when you focus just on Z, so reanimating the entire storyline all over again is a huge undertaking, and as Kai showed there may not be enough interest to justify going through the entire series and would get it cancelled like it's the Level Sets. That ki...

I always figured it's because she doesn't have the time or doesn't really feel like it anymore, which is perfectly fine by me. It's fine by me too, I was just curious. And figured the Website & Community Discussion would be the most appropriate section of the forum. :) Fair enough! I think the ...

Re: Will Dragon ever get a true 100% reanimation?
It would be nice, but ultimately the problem is that the anime business itself has changed, such that the quality overall doesn't match up a lot of the time to the 80s and 90s that Dragon Ball made its name in, at least until it comes out on Blu-Ray apparently. When it comes to animation and drawing...

Re: Is it me, or does everything else DB related have better character design?
I think they're pretty good so far. I mean when you think about it Super Saiyan itself is a "lazy" transformation in the face of Oozaru or Zarbon or Frieza; it's the hair pointed up with no inking in the hair or the eyes, and a recolour when it isn't in the manga. It wasn't really until SS...

Re: Does Super amplify Dragon Ball's problems?
According to that logic Bandai, Kellog's and Glico sponsoring GT influenced the story, right? Maybe that's the real reason why GT sucked! http://www.kanzenshuu.com/generalinfo/features/dbox_perfect/sponsor3.jpg?x65652 http://www.kanzenshuu.com/generalinfo/features/dbox_perfect/sponsor4.jpg?x65652

Re: Does Super amplify Dragon Ball's problems?
DBS' problems is its planning and management. The producers rushed it. 5 directors in a series that has only 100 episodes is terrible terrible management. I hope there are no more replacements so that the series can reach a state of stability. To me that can at least be partially attributed to the ...

Re: Does Super amplify Dragon Ball's problems?
Transformers (85 specifically) would be an example of a merchandise-driven show, and that is something less concerned about plot and good storytelling and more about making an episode about a character timed specifically to air the week their toy debuts. This is the franchise that killed off almost ...

Re: Sony To Acquire Majority Stake in Funimation
Worst case scenario: Literally nothing changes. No the worst case scenario is that Sony rings up Funimation to say "Hey, guys, we loved what you did from 1996 to 2007..." I don't think a live-action movie is any more likely because Funimation would only have the distribution rights to the...

Since I can't go back and edit my post, here's an update! I was able to re-insert Mezase Tenkaichi back into the English dub of the final 21st WMAT episode! However one of my edits was to remove Jackie verbally goading Goku into a final kick; he never did that in the manga and it always rubbed me th...

Re: Dragon Ball Manga vs Anime Release Chart
It's funny because you'd think the non-sequential (relatively) nature of Dr. Slump it'd be far easier to make filler for it! Maybe they just couldn't wait to jump to Toriyama's new hotness at the time.

Re: Why the recent attempt to push Freeza as Goku's arch-enemy?
You're gonna have to show the source of Vegeta claiming to run the planet trade, because I do not recall that being mentioned in either Kai or the Viz manga. Krillin being killed by the Androids in Future Trunks' timeline is significantly lessened by the fact that Goku, Vegeta, Piccolo, Tien, Chiaot...
