Re: "Dragon Ball Z: Kakarot" Official Discussion Thread

I don't think they should have recontextualized EoZ, necessarily. I like EoZ as it is. I just think they should have picked a damn side. The new additions are thoroughly half-assed compared to past DLCs, nevermind all the pointless grinding to unlock skills that were already in the game aside from a...

Re: "Sparking! ZERO" Official Announcement & Pre-Release Discussion Thread

From what I saw, the game is not on par with FighterZ visually, for obvious reasons, but it looks pretty good so far in trailers. What obvious reasons? I think it looks way better than FighterZ's aesthetic, which is just a bit too reminiscent of modern Yamamuro designs from the anime – stiff, overl...

Re: "Dragon Ball Z: Kakarot" Official Discussion Thread

I love End of Z. I love the aged characters. I love the rivalry between Goku and Vegeta. This DLC was lame as fuck. It sure would have been a nice opportunity to expand upon Oob's life with Goku after the tournament, even if they're just doing mundane stuff, since the story does go beyond the tourna...

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

Beast doesn't need an explanation of any kind. Or rather, it's right there in the original series.

It's just Gohan's rage gimmick given form, hence the name. That's about as self-explanatory as it gets.

Re: Dragon Ball Super Strength Discussion Thread

Miracles ... come on, brodamus. The dialogue is flatly telling you at face value that Goku is using his strongest form. Beerus and Whis aren't even the only characters in this chapter to mention it; it came straight from the horse's mouth too. I promise you that the writers aren't just planting the...

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

It's chucklesome that just this morning I saw a guy on Twitter recreate the Goku vs. Gohan part from this chapter in Xenoverse 2, using Ultra Instinct and Beast from older DLC packs. The irony of that is palpable. Notwithstanding Toyotaro's pretty good artwork, which he rightly deserves credit for, ...

Re: Dragon Ball Super Strength Discussion Thread

I mean, Goku himself told Gohan they'll use their strongest forms right off the bat. Between that and what Beerus said, I'd say it's rather obvious the silver-haired UI is the best. That was already strongly suggested in the Granolah arc anyway. The biggest relevation this chapter proffers is Goku b...

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

It makes a shocking amount of sense that in universe, the term "Ultimate Gohan" was just randomly made up by Goten and Trunks because it sounded cool. Also a couple of neat allusions here, like the parallel to the alternate Trunks timeline or the pre-match bow taught to Goku by none other ...

Re: "Dragon Ball Z: Kakarot" Official Discussion Thread

Truthfully, I can't see another season pass after this. End of Z is like the perfect bookend for a Z-focused game, chosen specifically to wrap up the whole Kakarot package. I'd be surprised if the DLCs continue. Anything Super-related would most likely just warrant a new game altogether, but who kno...

Re: Dragon Ball Super Strength Discussion Thread

Yeah, thought as much. That's already what the Granolah arc implied, but this 100% confirms it.

Broly also once again reiterates he can't use Super Saiyan at will, lol.

Re: "Dragon Ball Z: Kakarot" Official Discussion Thread

Another trailer released. It looks like they're extending Goten's training with Goku and the Pan tournament fight along with a Goku vs. Vegeta tease at the end.

I wouldn't expect anything too bombastic from this, but what we have looks pretty good.

Re: If Toriyama decided to bring Zamasu back

Dragon Ball's divine pantheon is discernable entirely for the fact that it's just a bunch of blundering dipshits, without exception. Zamasu and his comical narcissism is exactly what you'd get from taking that idea and spawning a full-on villain from it. I don't think there's any need to revisit thi...

Re: Dragon Ball Super Strength Discussion Thread

Static boost or not, Gohan hasn't done any training but he's suddenly stronger than before. No, that's completely wrong. It's established twice in the movie/arc that although Gohan supposedly became rusty enough to lose Ultimate, he'd still been practicing and training to some degree before the sto...

Re: Dragon Ball Super Strength Discussion Thread

I don't think asking "What are the writers thinking" is a good stance because they're not even thinking at all. Last time we saw Ultimate Gohan he was leagues behind Blue Goku but now he's "on par". It's the only appropriate stance. What happens to fictional characters is decide...

Re: Dragon Ball Super Strength Discussion Thread

Zenkai hasn't been a thing in the story for ages and I doubt any of the writers were thinking about it. The more obvious answer is that FPSS Broly was always just that strong, which is why they have him busting through dimensions and shit along with statements placing him over Beerus since his intro...

Re: Dragon Ball Super Strength Discussion Thread

Since we were talking about tier lists, this is how I view things currently. Agreed with almost everything here except Gas. I think it's time we put Gas below Goku and Vegeta at this point in their training, and below Cell Max by proxy. His zombie form was so brittle his body parts were getting des...
