Re: Akira Toriyama Passes Away.

He had a lot more to give, and I owe him a lot.

RIP Toriyama

Re: Dragon Ball Super: Manga Chapter 90 - Official Discussion Thread

Seems perfectly reasonable to bring up the previous arcs when talking about the current arc. That’s how sequential storytelling works. Krillin needs to be a cop that actually does his job by arresting Mai. He should probably arrest Kame-Sennin first. Police corruption even in a world like Dragonbal...

Re: Why is Toei so obsessed in making Goku dumb in DBS and DBS movies

There are certainly ways of rationalising around the meditation scene that are valid, but I think the sloppy presentation is the main issue. I like when Goku gets to act dumb and goofy about stuff outside of training, but one of the quiet pleasures of genre fiction is seeing a protagonist who is in...

Re: Dragon Ball Super: Manga Chapter 90 - Official Discussion Thread

Thought the last gag of the zombie androids going back to their families was funny lmao I'm a bit confused about this disk, didn't Trunks and goten already steal the disk and there was indeed a disk in there that had the cell blueprints? Now it's just an empty cover? There was a compartment under th...

Re: Dragon Ball Super: Manga Chapter 88 - Official Discussion Thread

Well, seems like I was totally wrong about Gero's disc LOL Remind me to never go along with your manga predictions or bets in the future 💀 So while the disc did contain information about Cell, I think I did pretty well in the end! https://i.ibb.co/nzRRfyS/hedodisk.png https://wompampsupport.azureed...

I liked what I saw and read of the chapter. It was pretty fine, but I don't want to get into too much details before it actually releases.

Re: Dragon Ball Super: Manga Chapter 89 - Official Discussion Thread

On topic: What many pointed out and It’s getting hard to use to is how basically Trunks isn’t really cool. They portrayed him in GT closer to his future self snd it’s hard to shrug it off. But maybe the characterization is on point, as this basically is the Kid Trunks but older and I wonder if ther...

Re: Dragon Ball Super: Manga Chapter 89 - Official Discussion Thread

Well whatever, might as well talk about something actually related to the chapter. Wonder if Trunks' new superhero finishing moves (like Cyclone Style Tornado Hurricane & Steam Cleaner High Pressure) will become actual new parts of his regular moveset, or just exclusive to him as Saiyaman X-1(si...

Re: Dragon Ball Super: Manga Chapter 89 - Official Discussion Thread

My opinions on the chapter haven't especially changed from my impressions of the leaks besides moreso that Trunks needs to be removed from the courts as both a menace & a bum. I liked it overall. Also, this might take the cake for the top 1 cringeworthy discussion thread on this forum I've ever ...

Re: Against Multiverses

The Multiverse was used to set up a tournament, and that's all. They only had time to give for a few universes exploration: the magical girls, the Justice Soldiers and the debut of alternate Saiyans. The other worlds were displayed as opponents, and that's it. They could have counted as a multi-wor...

Re: Dragon Ball Super: Manga Chapter 89 - Official Discussion Thread

Leaks dropped. Felt like it was right out of a fun classic Power Rangers monster-of-the-week serial with Trunks as the MC & Beta the bad guy of the ep (who surprise surprise, was a Hedo Android). Sorry Goten fans for him being a side character here again lol As for the other thing to talk about,...

Re: "Dragon Ball Super (Manga)" Official Discussion Thread

In GT, Trunks was the President of Capsule Corp. He did not like the job, this is nothing new. I did not remember that. Perhaps it's just a reference. Have you possibly considered that maybe, as the heir to the biggest corporation in the world, the expectations that he will eventually take over (wh...

Re: "Dragon Ball Super (Manga)" Official Discussion Thread

Trunks conflict about becoming CEO is so empty and un-Dragon Ball like. It's trying to add dimension to the character when such a thing is out-of-place. Are we supposed to believe such expectations were put on him by Bulma or his Grandfather? It's not believable. It's just one of the few things tha...

Drafts are out. So much for that disc not containing anything important when it contains the initial data for Cell (& thus the basis for Cell Max) lmao SH-era Bra is nice to see & that she's a tech wiz like her mom here (not saying she might not have been one in GT but we never got to see it...

Re: "Dragon Ball Super (Manga)" Official Discussion Thread

I understand why some people here are cool with this last chapter, as it finally takes focus away from Goku and Vegeta. And yeah there is potential in an arc that deals with a different perspective of the DB world. But.....as I was reading this chapter, all I can think of is: Why? Why is the next e...

I know we're only in the first chapter, but-
