Re: A new Budokai Tenkaichi has been announced

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z-8-ElPPNeo Nostal Treevax releases his final update for the Raging Blast 3 project. You know, Sparking Zero is basically Raging Blast 3 when you think about it.

Re: Do you like Super?

I abso-fuggin'-lutely despise Super. Not only is it a lousy (pair of) product(s) on its own — copping cliché fanfic concepts for its story arcs, trying to pass off a parade of lazy recolors as new transformations, repeatedly attempting to alter past lore for no good reason, and generally devoid of ...

Re: Do you like Super?

Dragon Ball Super is, was and will always be a forgettable, horrid dumpster, in my opinion. It is the first time in my life that some new content from a franchise I love and care about a lot, makes me lose a lot of interest in said franchise. For those who don't know me (aka everyone here), I'm a ve...

Re: Potential Future Arcs

Oh, the possibilities for new arcs are almost limitless; Dragon Ball has always been a rich world with countless lore tidbits and an awesome creative force behind it (at least until the 2000s); there are many potential ideas, but the team in charge right now (yes, including Toriyama, I'd say especia...

Re: A new Budokai Tenkaichi has been announced

A new Tenkaichi game is a dream come true. Here is my dream roster for the game after all DLC have been released (I'm aware it's impossible to realize on a game, but a man can dream), the roster to rule them all. The game would be divided into two eras: Classic era: Dragon Ball: Kid Goku base/Oozaru...

Re: Was Dragon Ball Super a good anime?

I mean, it's not a horrible design per se, it's just a bit lacklustre. Like, too plain. When I think of an evil goku, I think of darkness, of black armors, of spikes, of cool bracelets and metal and whatnot. Maybe something a bit more intimidating, a bit more memorable. No offence, but "darkne...

Re: Was Dragon Ball Super a good anime?

I love his outfit, I think that, in its simplicity (as you said, it's pretty ordinary clothing), it manages to look very elegant and stylish: https://images-wixmp-ed30a86b8c4ca887773594c2.wixmp.com/f/4805bb10-2561-4f69-b899-a4f774a82de4/dedgtn5-7b6ada90-bc56-4701-ab6d-0cea2ef30292.png/v1/fill/w_192...

LMAO. :D And before anyone will run to warn/block me for laughing at muslims, I will state that I'm partially Arabian, descending from Pre-islamic Arabs. But I gotta give them some credit for cover-animating the whole sequences. Respectfully, why would anyone block or warn you for speaking your min...

Re: Was Dragon Ball Super a good anime?

I often see "reboot" being thrown in. May someone care to explain what do people want exactly out of a "reboot"? Is it for the manga to be animated all over again? If that is the case, Dragon Ball would have to present way, way much more than just "better animation" (w...

Re: Was Dragon Ball Super a good anime?

It was a mediocre anime, but it was a terrible Dragon Ball anime. It is a perfect example of how not to revive a beloved franchise. Dragon Ball has a lot of potential for having sequels and reboots, you just have to glance at the fan made artworks and mangas to realize there's so many cool, potentia...

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

For me the manga is lacklustre, but, as I said elsewhere, we need more people to add ideas to Dragon Ball, and so far, I don't dislike many things that Toyotaro added ( Yamcha defending the Earth, Goku and Vegeta helping the Galactic Patrol, exploring the Galactic prison and inmates, the whole conce...

Hypothetical Tournament of Power

Hey guys, So let's imagine I'm Zeno for a second (I'm quite childish, if that helps) and I decided to organize a Tournament of Power with all the big baddies from all sagas/movies from DB, DBZ, DBGT, DBS, DBS MANGA, DBH (plus a main character from each special and, when appropriate, from games too)....

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

So what would be a plausible explanation for Granolah not using the DBs to resurrect his mother, or the entire Cereal race, yet? I can think, off the top of my head, of these ones: - The Cereal DBs do not have such power (kind of invalid for 3 reasons: 1- Granolah could perfectly well use his newfou...

Re: Adventure arcs

My comment had nothing to do with the quality or lack thereof of the Black Star Dragon Balls arc, or the quality of any Super arc. I excluded it because GT obviously does not fit into the current continuity. Yeah, but it's still an existing Dragon Ball story arc. You start by saying the last advent...

Re: Adventure arcs

I don't think we've had a genuine adventure arc since Namek (excluding GT's first arc), and one could argue Namek doesn't even count since it's more-so just a change of scenery, leaving us with the Red Ribbon arc as the last one. Every arc since follows the trope of strong guy shows up, commence ba...
