Re: Dragon Ball Super Strength Discussion Thread

It seems the chapter clarifies how all the characters stand in comparison to each other. 1. Gogeta/Vegetto Blue 2. Gohan/Broly 3. Goku/Vegeta/Piccolo Beerus should probably be in tier 2 considering he's stated to be on par with Broly and weaker than Vegetto, but realistically he's either tier 0 or t...

Re: Akira Toriyama Passes Away.

It is only after some reflection that I've started to compose myself and realize the degree of impact and influence Toriyama has had on my life. I've always been sympathetic toward folks who felt depressed after a celebrity death, but this is the first time I've ever felt it myself. I can basically ...

Re: The end of "Akira Toriyama canon"

Toriyama Dragon Ball ended in 1996 in the Boo arc. Everything following hasn't been 100% his own work anymore. I don't see what may follow as any different. Toriyama probably left behind a ton of scrapped designs and story ideas - if not in writing, then in conversation with Toyotaro and others. The...

Re: Fanmanga - DB Multiverse

I assume this means Cell is unaffected too?

In DBM canon Boo is also still a Bibidi creation so he should be immune as well for being artificial?

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.

Re: Dragon Ball Without Its Creator

I can see a plethora of new projects being announced over the next few years or just the series dying off again after Daima. There's no way to know.

Who's the best character in every arc?

If you go through all the arcs, which character is the best-written and most interesting and captivating in every arc? For me: Pilaf: Bulma 21st TB: Roshi Red Ribbon: Goku 22nd TB: Roshi Piccolo Daimao: I don't think anyone is particularly interesting here, so Yajirobe or Roshi again 23rd TB: Goku o...

Re: Favorite Super characters (new)

If Beerus doesn't count, then I think Goku Black is easily the most welcome addition to the cast, especially the anime version.

I like Merus and Granolah too. Gamma 2 is cool too.

Re: Dragon Ball Super: Manga Chapter 102 - Official Discussion Thread

Funny thing is in the super manga Gohan already had a rage boost moment against Moro, and it amounted to nothing. And it was in response to Goku being in extreme mortal danger!: https://i.imgur.com/Y8vM5Vl.png https://i.imgur.com/eVhO7LB.png (Gohan Beast haters rise up) I actually like the form, I ...

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 ...

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.

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.
