Re: The end of "Akira Toriyama canon"
Toriyama was a mangaka. He wrote and drew his own stories. So, everything that belonged to Toriyama's 100% canon included all manga publications he ever wrote and drew: Dragon Ball and related works within the same universe. But also works like Sandman, Dr. Slump... Anything involving Toriyama that ...

Re: Akira Toriyama Passes Away.
RIP. My condoleances to the family and relatives.
This comes as a bombshell. I have no words for it.
My heart is filled with sadness today.
Dragon Ball will undoubtedly live on, but it will never be the same.

Re: Dragon Ball Daima (2024)
In recent years, my interest in my once-beloved franchise had fizzled out, to say the least. The manga's progress was hopelessly slow, and Super Hero couldn't revive my enthusiasm either. A movie can be an interesting addition to manga and anime, but it can never be the main driving force of Dragon ...

Re: Official On-Going Dragon Ball Super Movie #2 Thread: "Super Hero"
The reactions to this film so far is in no way shape or form close to the severity of the Last Jedi's reception Just for loud fans. Last Jedi actually has a pretty good reviews and ratings outside of the vocal fanbase and youtubers with “movie disaster” videos. The Rise Of Skywalker actually is the...

Re: Dragon Ball Super: Manga Chapter 81 - Official Discussion Thread
I hope Gas gets nuked as soon as possible. It's the best thing that could happen for the story finally moving forward. I rather have Elec getting some powerup and the endgame. Somehow predictable, but way better than what we have now. What worries me this won't happen anytime soon is this Bardock -...

Re: Official On-Going Dragon Ball Super Movie #2 Thread: "Super Hero"
The Broly movie really felt like constant ad spamming comparaded to this movie, at least on my eyes. I'm surprised we know so little of it too. Hell they outright spoiled Gogeta last time without any apparent hesitation. I really hope that if the movie does badly -which I doubt, but still- they don...

In the Broly-thread four years ago there were constant guessings and discussions about what the exact plot of the movie would be.

That's the biggest mistake hey have ever made with DBS. DB is originally not a series meant for little children. It is meant for adolescents. I know why they do this: they simply want to make more money out of it, but it ripps the soul from the series. Dragon Ball Super is absolutely meant for chil...

Re: Dragon Ball Super: Manga Chapter 80 - Official Discussion Thread
The main problem here, if I may be so bold as to say this, is that the arc is a bit too ambitious in its thematic storytelling, but ultimately fails to make ends meet, by doing nothing with it and most importantly wasting too many pages on battle scenes. A lot of sub-themes and side stories unfold s...

Re: Official On-Going Dragon Ball Super Movie #2 Thread: "Super Hero"
Considering it's 3D, it could have looked a lot worse, but that does not take away from the fact this clearly is still a step back in comparison to Broly. Having received nothing animated at all in four years time for the main timeline, i think it lies within reason to understand some people are dis...

Re: Official On-Going Dragon Ball Super Movie #2 Thread: "Super Hero"
PreCure is by no means comparable to DB in terms of footprint. I'd be very surprised if his new technology were to be developed for this one movie only. It's a way to develop more content easier with lower cost, without having to loose staff to other projects. Lower quality of course in comparison t...

Re: Dragon Ball Super: Manga Chapter 80 - Official Discussion Thread
So Gas, who has to be about the most uninspiring DB-antagonist ever (even Jiren had a more profound personality), gets a random power-up and a new set of horns, that is basically it to be excited about for this chapter? Really, i don't even have the impression they are trying to tell something anymo...

Re: Official On-Going Dragon Ball Super Movie #2 Thread: "Super Hero"
It's pretty much a given that more films and a potential extension of the DBS series are on the way - this is a business workflow decision to be able to sustain that. Instead of starting from scratch each and every frame of each episode - they will have pre-rigged models built to simply drop in and...
