Re: I spent 4 days with Takashi Matsuyama (Toriyama's main assistant during Dr Slump and DB until 1990), AMA

Did Toriyama already have a family while writing Dr. Slump? I feel like the series goes from real "single guy" to "married guy" energy in how he draws a lot of the female characters, haha.

Zenkai Battle? Could be a straight port and I'd like to have it at home quickly!

It's good Dragon Ball gets re-runs. Naruto hasn't been in the shop since November 2022!

Re: Official confirmation Toriyama wanted to end Dragonball at the Cell Saga

The most shocking thing to me was learning that Dragon Ball was "carrying" the magazine in the mid 90's. There's manga magazines that are kept afloat by a single popular manga, Kindai Mahjong and Akagi come to mind, but I thought the popularity of Slam Dunk, Yu Yu Hakusho and others were just as ...

Re: Why buy home video releases nowadays when you can just watch them via online streaming platforms?

I feel like if you really enjoy a series it's totally worth it to own it. It's nice to have it on a shelf and ready to watch or show to someone! There's also the problems of streaming rights shifting around for some titles so you don't know where it might be. Even if something is produced by a ...

Re: Various mangakas redraw the DB volume covers for the series 40th anniversary, which one is your favorite?

It's kind of funny because a lot of my favorite manga authors did covers I only find "ok". I think the most interesting one is actually Volume 36 by Katsura Hoshino, the OP spelled their name differently but I thought this was her name? I think the biggest miss was not having Yudetamago make one ...

Re: How Eguchi Hisashi's Manga About a Trans Girl Nearly Ended "Dr. Slump" Early

Is the Stop!! Hibari Kun anime very different than the manga? I've only read the manga before and the way a lot of people are talking about it makes me wonder if you get a different impression from it? It wouldn't be the first time! The Kinnikuman anime and manga were extremely different and it was ...

Re: Dragon Ball Super: Manga Chapter 98 - Official Discussion Thread



Lol, Toyo didn't change Gohan's line about giant Piccolo so that's another error added to the list for the manga.


Which line? And whoever said 3 months... God please no. Surely the next chapter is the end of this...


It has to at least be two chapters in my opinion. I think three might be ...

I'm surprised the second Slam Dunk ending was what placed highest for it, although the first ED and first OP being there are pretty nice too.

Thanks for clarifying, and glad to have confirmation on it not being a remake :thumbup:
Take that with a grain of salt, didn't the last sequel speculation thread get locked because he was so mad his "leak" didn't turn out to be true.

Between the Hokuto no Ken remake, the Kinnikuman remake, the return of the Captain Tsubasa remake and some other rumored ones I'm wondering if they're just going to go for an original Dragon Ball remake at this point.

Re: People who genuinely argue the humor added in dubs "Improves the show"

I really don't understand how localization changes are even a debate. It has to be because anime and manga are considered a "lower art." Can you imagine if translators of historical novels made changes they thought fit the story better? If people subtitling live action films felt the need to change ...

Excited to get closer to the next arc with each passing chapter. As the manga Super Hero arc can never outdo the movie.

Re: Upcoming Fortnite x Dragon Ball Collaboration


It was a little disappointing that Future Trunks wasnt added alongside Goku Black as that would have been a solid pairing. However Trunks has to be one of the next skins they do at this point. If they did another set of 4 using Trunks, Freeza and Androids 17 & 18, then I think most DB skins that ...
