Re: Could a Roshi movie/special work or be fresh?

Roshi is not a good main protagonist, he doesnt crave power or fighting like Goku does. It'd be a huge shift in tone and theme to have Roshi as the main person. The story you mention has three people at the helm, Mutaito, Roshi, and Grandpa Gohan. Canonically they have the same personality, womanizi...

Re: Would Goku actually give Thanos the infinity stones?

Thanos in the movie didnt really seem that powerful even with the gauntlet. It is also really hard to equate power levels between the two worlds, as tech still holds a place in the MCU where as nearly all power scaling in DBZ ignores tech completely. So, Thanos wanting to solve the universe's popula...

Re: Could A Fusion Of Bardock & King Vegeta Have Defeated Freeza?

There is so much more to this argument than simple power level factoring. King Vegeta would probably have many sociopolitical factors to consider before agreeing with Bardock to fuse, he would also have to be pretty convinced of Bardock's argument that Frieza is planning to take out planet vegeta. ...

Re: Could A Fusion Of Bardock & King Vegeta Have Defeated Freeza?

Eh, I trust Frieza's conniving-ness over Bardock/King Vegeta's power. All things being equal otherwise, it would be a fight to the death. There's also instances in which Saiyans can tap into greater strength than what their ordinary forms usually allow, as though they can siphon power from their tr...

Re: Could A Fusion Of Bardock & King Vegeta Have Defeated Freeza?

Truth be told I do not know enough about fusion to discuss your points head on, but I have what I consider an " important fusion qualifier ". I believe personal compatibility is a big part of fusion, going by the fact that those who have successfully fused and fought in the past have been...

Re: What do you want with Broly?

I hope Cheelai is not relegated to just "hot green chick". I know Toriyama has a hard time with romance, but maybe Toyotaro does not? I'm sure she'll be fine. My comment was poking fun at science fiction's history of hot green women aliens. I don't think anyone wants her reduced to just t...

Re: Could A Fusion Of Bardock & King Vegeta Have Defeated Freeza?

The only way to beat Frieza at that point in the story is to prove allegiance in a very dominant fashion. There was no way to overpower Frieza. I don't know. Fusion can have a really overpowered effect on Saiyans; there's evidence that even a base fusion is considerably stronger than either fusee a...

Re: Would Piccolo Daimao and Garlic Jr have gotten along?

I know the current Piccolo and Kami are inextricably linked, but would that have also been the case for Piccolo Daimao? What I am getting at is the team up, if against Kami, wouldn't be beneficial for Daimao if Kami is necessary for his survival. That being said, a road trip with Garlic and Daimao t...

In his normal Ssj form he was able to beat up Blue Goku, Vegeta, and Golden Freeza. There was no need to take it a step further when he was already ...

What do you want to see done with Broly ? The best and worst thing about Broly is that he's a power house. It's great to see him destroy everything in his path , especially in his first movie in Z where no one could stop him. The problem is, that kind of character loses his novelty after his first ...

Re: What do you want with Broly?

But to be fair, they'll never put Krillin against Jiren or Moro for instance. Broly has been shown to bounce around Golden Frieza as if he were a beach ball, so I don't buy your argument. If they power scale Broly to make him less of a factor in battles, it would have to be the end of the show imo....

Re: What do you want with Broly?

Broly could really give us a taste of regular Saiyan characteristics if his arc is more "coming-of age" than the whole Hulk aspect to his life. What do you take to be regular Saiyan characteristics? So whats been passed down from saiyans like Nappa, Vegeta, Raditz and the like is a taste ...

Re: What do you want with Broly?

I think Broly could be used as an example of the prototypical saiyan. Vegeta has been too pampered as a youth and now has a completely different persona from his coexistence with humans. Goku' s whole story is based around the fact he is not like regular saiyans. Broly has been in isolation for so l...

Re: What do you want with Broly?

Broly is just too strong and yea most likely will be written as a side character or just swoops in to save the day. They'll just make everyone stronger than him. This is the same show that has Krillin holding his own against Blue Goku. But to be fair, they'll never put Krillin against Jiren or Moro...
