Re: What are the chances of Freeza becoming a genuinely good guy?

0. He literally says at the end of the ToP that he intends to go back to his evil ways. At the end of Broly, he is seen ruthlessly invading an innocent world with his army. He also seeks to find Broly and use him as a weapon to get his revenge on Goku and Vegeta. You'll be waiting forever. "I'...

This also applies to DBZ, as Freeza was better portrayed in the Z/Kai anime than he was in the OG manga (Ryusei Nakao helps a lot).

Re: Should Freeza have never been revived in Super?

I'm glad Frieza came back, he's Dragon ball's Joker. Dragon Ball was nothing like Batman to say Freeza was its Joker. Freeza wasn't the first or even 5th main villain Goku fought, and after he was dead, things just kept moving on as usual. Freeza was nothing special in the original manga, unlike Jo...

One shotting Freeza wasnt too big of a deal since Goku would have just done it anyways.

Re: Dragon Ball Super Strength Discussion Thread

The fact that UI is a non-voluntary limit breaker power suggest that it isn't natural like the SSJ forms You realize that Super Saiyan was originally non-voluntary as well, right? And that Goku literally just began learning how to tap into Ultra Instinct at will? You know, the same way he did with ...

Re: The main reason why Goku, and Vegeta are so stale now personalitywise...

Stationary characterization basically allows for the production committee to rely on the status quo to sustain profits. It's not ideal for me, as both a creator-type and fan, but it's what essentially allows Dragon Ball to be most profitable: by aiming for the lowest common denominator. Toriyama no...

Re: The main reason why Goku, and Vegeta are so stale now personalitywise...

You can't expect further character development from characters that already completed their arcs in 90s. Any new change would have resulted in the loss of what made them so iconic. And from day 1 Goku is an example the Flat-Character arc. He's not designed by nature to go through any significant ch...

Re: Dragon Ball Super Strength Discussion Thread

They are not natural as in non-biological. Kaioken is a technique not a transformation, and UI is something that transcends the self How is Ultra Instinct non-biological? The power Goku uses in that form comes from himself. Whether or not UI "transcends the self" is irrelevant. You're pul...

Re: Dragon Ball Super Strength Discussion Thread

Strongest natural form. Kaioken and UI obviously don't count. You're making up rules by saying UI doesn't count lol, what do you define as a "natural" form exactly? Because Goku found a new form of power within him that isn't Super Saiyan? That's like arbitrarily saying Frieza's Golden Fo...

Re: Toriyama's Dragon Ball Super ideas

What proxy said. SSGSS is ultimately a "version of Super Saiyan" because its a hybrid form, not just "SSJ1 with God ki", which makes no sense , so Rose being "Black's version of Super Saiyan" doesn't contradict the idea of it also being a version of SSB. Yes it does, b...

Re: Toriyama's Dragon Ball Super ideas

That's not at all what the anime says nor shows (nor the guide I posted). And you don't need a God transformation to use God ki. And no, SSB is not just SSJ1 with God ki, its when you mix SSJ1 & SSG together. I don't remember what the anime says nor shows specifically, but the "guide"...

Re: Toriyama's Dragon Ball Super ideas

It's the same thing in both versions, it's Black's version of Blue. It's just that in the anime he's using god ki by default (Zamasu being a deity), so it's by default his Super Saiyan. It's pretty much semantics, but it's the same thing. In the manga he's able to tap into regular ki too. That's no...

Re: The main reason why Goku, and Vegeta are so stale now personalitywise...

The real reason they seem so stale now is because Toriyama hasn't done anything major with them character-wise after the Buu arc.

Also, the flanderization, bad amnesiac writing and the general lack of real character investment in them from the writers.
