Re: Akira Toriyama Passes Away.
Dragon Ball Super being announced in 2015 stopped me from killing myself. I am legitimately alive (and happy) because of Toriyama. Thank you. You're not giving yourself enough credit. You're alive because you're a strong person. As strong emotionally/mentally as Toriyama's characters are physically...

Re: Dragon Ball Without Its Creator
I will continue to support Dragon Ball projects going forward. Many directors, producers, animators, and writers will come forward and put their own spin on Dragon Ball. Some of it will be bad, but some will be good too. Look at Lupin the Third. It outlived the creator, Monkey Punch, but it still ma...

Re: Akira Toriyama Passes Away.
We are so fortunate to have gotten all the content we got from him these last few years. Toriyama could have ridden off into the sunset decades ago. But during what should have been his retirement, he penned four movies, produced/supervised Dragon Ball Super across two mediums, worked on Dragon Ball...

Re: Character You Wish Did More?
Nail, Pikkon, Yamcha, Tien, Krillin, and Uub for sure.
Also, I always thought Oolong should have a bigger role. Imagine Oolong using his shapeshifting ability to impersonate villains and struggling not to blow his cover and stay transformed longer.

Re: Should DB copy Yugioh?
I wouldn't mind a sequel series like Legend of Korra. Where legacy characters occasionally show up much older. Imagine a 70 year old Master Krillin or Master Tien, an older Dende, or a badass 40-year-old Uub who is the protector of the world.

Re: What if Masako Nozawa dies? (God forbid)
The Lupin the 3rd series was able to move on after Yasuo Yamada and Kiyoshi Kobayashi passed away. Dragon Ball would do the same thing too. Replaced rather seamlessly too. The new people sound almost identical. There's that old saying that "the show must go on." A series this massive and ...

Re: Death Battle Goku vs Superman again...again
If they're doing a third one it's either going to be a draw or Goku victory. Or Supes wins again and they just really wanted that juicy December YT Ad revenue and sponsorship payments :lol: I feel like a draw would probably be best honestly. Goku shakes universes, shakes infinite voids of nothingne...

Re: Death Battle Goku vs Superman again...again
Meh. The fights from their Goku vs. Superman videos are fun, but their character analysis sections are pretty bad. They pick feats for Superman from various continuities (Silver Age, All Star Superman, etc) like they're shopping for groceries, but only stick to GT Goku or Resurrection F Goku. It's ...

Re: The All-Purpose "Versus" Thread
The Dragon Team after three years of training for the androids vs. Future 17 and 18
Curious if the cast can win since the future timeline ones are weaker.
Bonus Round:
What's the strongest character that Tiencha (Tien + Yamcha Fusion) could beat? The Cell saga versions of them.

Re: The All-Purpose "What-If " Thread
What if Piccolo wished for his potential to be unlocked during the 2 months of training for Moro? Not much of a difference imo. Probably just volunteers to fight in place of Android 17 and 18. The problem is, the strength beyond his limits at that point in the series is still weaker than the versio...

How strong Freeza would be if not only he was turned into an android by Gero after Namek, but also he remembers that he could train to explore his full potential? Frieza with unlimited stamina would be unstoppable. He could be golden or black permanently if he wanted. Assuming Beerus isn't retconne...

Re: Another live action thread (yes, I know)
Live action can work and there's a lot of ways to do it. I would hope however it's made in the future, they film on location and find a great martial arts choreographer.
I would personally want to see it done like the Star Wars films, and less like a tokusatsu film like others here want.

Re: Reasons you want the weekly anime back.
I don't.
Stick to movies and OVAs. The quality just wasn't there with the animation, writing, and art in the Dragon Ball Super series.

Re: If Toriyama Continued After Buu...
I imagine he would have worked with Toei on Dragon Ball GT. Produced it, helped with more designs, helped with writing, done the manga adaption. But keeping the core elements (Space Adventure, Tuffle Return, 17, Hell on Earth, Shadow Dragons) in tact. I feel it would have been more adventure focused...

Re: Unpopular DB opinions
I'm probably one of the few here that are not in a thirst for a new animated series, seeing how DBS production was, I prefer the current route Toei is taking: doing movies once in a while. I think a movie every couple of years is the best way to do it. So that when the story does continue, it's hig...

Well Infact Goku WASN'T able to do crap to him and he himself admits it Also, in the anime both Goku and the narrator call kid Buu the strongest by gap from the first part of the fight ( being the one with SSJ2 Goku vs kid Buu ) , so there's not a lot of ways to take that And even for the manga the...
