Re: Dragon Ball and Libraries (And Librarians)
Interestingly I had access to Dragon Ball volumes and VHS tapes in my middle school, high school and even university.

Re: Dragon Ball Super: Manga Chapter 102 - Official Discussion Thread
To much time is waste on Trunks and Goten this chapter. It's boring. Next chapter looks to be worth it though. I wouldn't hype it up. Based on Beerus' reaction shot, I'm expecting a page or two of a generic scuffle followed by Beerus/Whis interrupting them before they destroy the planet. Maybe the ...

Did Goku forget his son can already go SS2?

Re: Dragon Ball Super Strength Discussion Thread
Wait so what's the point of True UI then? And don't tell me "It's weaker but better suited for combat" because Goku is in a combat right now. That's like asking why they'd use SS2 over 3. The stronger the form, the more drawbacks it has. Goku was not emotionally stable during the Granolah...

Re: Dragon Ball Super: Manga Chapter 102 - Official Discussion Thread
Art is subjective and that counts to each one's perception of it as well, for me Toyotaro is drawing Goku just the way he always did since the Fukkatsu no F manga, his particular style isn't one of my favorites but I do recognize that's just the way he choose to draw the characters and he won't cha...

Re: Dragon Ball Super: Manga Chapter 102 - Official Discussion Thread
Minor nitpick but definitely not a fan of how Toyotaro is drawing Goku ever since the Superhero arc started. It's like he forgot how to draw him. This became even more apparent with the way he drew UI this chapter.

Re: Dragon Ball Super Strength Discussion Thread
Silver UI still is and always was stronger than TUI, Goku just couldn't use it properly in the Granolah arc because he couldn't keep his emotions in check. Once he's knocked out, it's silver and the ki Avatar that manifest. I'm not sure Goku has any reason to lose his composure in this fight so he s...

Yep, as I thought. Leaks are out and they seem to be evenly matched. Even if Gohan is holding back, this isn't a Freeza level performance.

Re: Dragon Ball Super Strength Discussion Thread
I may be proven wrong over the next few months but I very much doubt we'll see Gohan one shotting Goku to place him at Freeza's level.

Re: "Sparking! ZERO" Official Announcement & Pre-Release Discussion Thread
The graphics don't look bad but the game is lacking some of the attention to detail of the originals. I hope they fix the auras. The flow-y loose auras work for the God forms but the standard Super Saiyans need the old spiky intense auras. The BT games mimicked the anime almost perfectly with them. ...

Re: Non-thread-worthy discussions
I love how stern of a father Goku is in the Toei movies. Telling Gohan in the Bojack film to "stop being a pampered baby" and asking Goten and Gohan in the Broly movie "can't you protect the Earth if I'm not around?" He's not exactly a soft pushover of a father in Toriyama's Drag...

Re: SPARKING! ZERO - Visual Roster Checker
Extremely disappointed we're getting several versions of Goku and Vegeta instead of having one character with interchangeable outfits and movesets like the Raging Blast games. It's one BT tradition they should have done away with. I wonder if Goku Super will include all the other Super Saiyan forms....

Re: Dragon Ball Daima (2024)
I'll laugh so hard if Nakatsuru was brought back because he designed Super Saiyan 4 and Daima is going to use it. I doubt that will happen, but I'll take it! You know, I really hope this doesn't happen. I'm pretty sure if Toriyama ever attempted to "Toriyamafy" SSJ4, he would annihilate e...

Did we hear Nozawa at all? Because if not then two trailers so far without voice acting may indicate they're replacing the VAs.

Once the current arc is over, would you like the manga to cover Daima?
For the sake of completeness, or is that a moot point by now considering two movies have already been skipped? For those that say yes, if Daima takes place chronologically in a different time period (before the events of Superhero/the current arc), would you still want it to be adapted, or is the id...

Re: Dragon Ball Super: Manga Chapter 101 - Official Discussion Thread
It's a bit odd we're already one chapter into this new arc or whatever this is and we have no indication of what it is. The Moro arc presented Moro in promotional material right away, the Granolah arc presented Granolah right away and the Superhero arc showcased the mini Goten and Trunks arc in the ...

Re: Anyone else have the feeling that Toriyama didn't like the Multiverse & Gods concepts?
I don't think he has an interest to explore the concepts to their fullest extent. His stories are largely character-focused, with a limited focus on a few characters despite the seemingly wide scope premises. He uses the multiverse as a backdrop to write competent and concise character arcs. It does...

Re: Dragon Ball Super Strength Discussion Thread
I know all promotional material points towards Beast being stronger than UI and UE but the fact that Gohan can whip it out so casually can maybe indicate that it's not as strong. Toyotaro likes to give the strongest forms some sort of handicap and it doesn't seem like Beast has one yet, so from a na...
