Re: Torishima "Son Goku and Blooma should fall in love"
To be honest this sounds like a horrible idea. For one, Toryiama just didn't do romance and it shows. Apart from Kuririn and 18, all of the other relationships were written up for a purpose. Mainly Trunks and Gohan. Bulma and Goku were made to be friends, albeit unlikely ones in the beginning. Other...

Re: Should the anime only make the manga exclusive chapter or make a new anime that does the whole chapter
Whaaa... ? Do you mean anime should go back to square 1 and animate ALL of the arcs again? HECK NO! I would like to remind you we already have 3 versions of BoG, 3 versions of RoF of which 2 are highly inferior. Why would you like a fourth version? I guess a remake would make sense but no earlier th...

Re: Do you consider Goku a Hero?
Yup. I don't really care about this nowaday bs that Goku is not a hero. That he only fights because he loves, that he is only interested 100% on it etc. Sure, Goku loves fighting and it's a big part of his character but the way he was portrayed in the original anime and even the manga does not contr...

Re: I'll be perfectly honest, I really don't like Gohan (or Broly).
I don't think this is controversial, quite the opposite, many people think this way. I myself liked Gohan and AT THE TIME of his inclusion he actually was an original character in DB. Everyone loved fighting, everyone trained, everyone bettered themselves in that regard. But Gohan? Gohan was a scare...

Re: Is Super on its way out?
While I rather don't believe Daima will be the new brand of Dragon Ball, I also am not sure what the future of Super is supposed to look like. Sure, we got a promise about milking the franchise for many years but for one, it was before Toriyama's passing and also never was it stated that Super anime...

Re: So what age is Goku REALLY?
To be fair I never took any world years, or minus retcons to deduce Goku's age. At least not until his state on 21 BT is retconned. And if it does, no problem. Tori may even say Goku got his age wrong or something. It isn't that much of a deal anyway. But having 12 years as a base, for me it looks s...

Re: Anyone else have the feeling that Toriyama didn't like the Multiverse & Gods concepts?
I don't think he doesn't like it per se but rather unfortunately he doesn't have enough creativity to do something major with the idea. And I know it's a kind of a hot take but the idea of there being so many universes and so many gods means you can write almost anything. But the only major reason, ...

I don't think any of Toeis business decisions has anything to do with the story flow or the age of the actors.

Re: Once the current arc is over, would you like the manga to cover Daima?
God, please no. We already have too much of covering the same story many times in Super. I mean we have 3 versions of BoG 2.5 versions of RoF? And now Super Hero was again made into a saga. For me it's too much of retellings. Let the movie stay as movies. And let anime spinnofs be spinnofs. Back in ...

Re: A rebuttal to the defense of the Zamasu arc ending
For me, there are two issues here. And it isn't about being realistic or gloomy. I feel as Zamasu Arc intended to be dark and gloomy from the start - and it did succeed. It was also set as a sort of tragedy. Despite our heroes hopes and dreams, they fail to save the timeline. Zamasu beats them at th...

Re: Goku letting Vegeta go is a very touching scene
Funny thing is in the og manga, the scene wasn't particularly touching. They made it so in the anime and while I agree it is touching Toei added meaning to it with mercy and giving a second chance. In the manga it was more like Goku going "he's the best sparing partner I had, would be a pity&qu...

Re: Why do people take "5 minutes Namek explosion" so seriously?
I don't think truthfully that the line only is the problem. I feel most of this comes from the fact that the Frieza battle portion of the story in the original Z anime is so prolonged it sometimes becomes unearable to watch. They nearly caught up with the manga by this point so they did what they co...

Btw Moro and Granolah are not filler ;) they're both completely legit manga arcs, just not animated. Super DOES HAVE filler but Moro and Granolah are not it. As for me all in all I...

Re: Dragon Ball Daima (2024)
The moment I saw this, I consantly got the Power Rangers vibe (in MMPP season 3 I think, they all get changed to kids). Is the idea good? I think we have no way to know just yet. Everyone will off course instantly think of GT and probably that's the intention. Will it work? It really depends on the ...

Re: Toei's fixation on Goku being the strongest
He did lose to Roshi as his major lost. For the old DBZ movies, he lost to Janemba and had to fuse with Vegeta to beat him. Was it a major lost though? I considered his loses as spectacular failures in which he barely escaped alive. So in case of Roshi, while yes, he formally lost the Budokai and t...

The only thing it could do is make Gohan or Gote...

Re: Your opinion for the original 3 Dragon Ball movies.
For me each one of them is better than the last. Each one is meant to represent the arc it takes place in (kind of like Z movies) but still this doesn't mean they can't be original or creatvive. Curse of the Blood Rubbies is hands down the worst of the bunch. It's basically the whole first arc squis...
