Re: Dragon Ball influences in Western products

Oh ok, I would have loved a visual refence to the Dragon Ball scene to know that. The post does NOT make this very clear AT ALL. 18 breaking Vegeta's arm is one of the most known scenes in the franchise. Considering how both characters are literally in the same pose as 18 and Vegeta I didn't know i...

Re: Dragon Ball influences in Western products

So female characters breaking other people's arms is a concept unique to Dragon Ball. That's literally the exact same scene just with different characters, dude. It's a clear reference.

Re: Dragon Ball influences in Western products

Miles Morales has quite a few DB references in his character’s history. https://sportshub.cbsistatic.com/i/2023/05/27/63c20937-6e84-49f1-a93c-289091a5d666/spider-man-2-miles-kamehameha-dragon-ball-goku.jpg https://i.redd.it/more-dbz-references-v0-htuaa9jatyqc1.jpg?width=1080&format=pjpg&auto...

Re: The end of "Akira Toriyama canon"

When I was younger I used to be deep into canon debates. Now I just don't care. I treat anime canon almost like Family Guy. Outside of manga adaptations, every DB series is its own thing that's free to reference anything in DB lore even if it don't quite make sense. If one series wanna have King Kai...

My friend Toyble actually OWNS Dragon Ball now?!

This is very sad news.
Happy Toyble can officially add his designs for Xicor and SS5, but still... very very sad.
I know this isn't intentional....but this isn't it. It's insensitive at this time

Re: Could this be the reason they don't continue DB Super series yet?

I prefer to apply Occam's Razor. They don't continue the Super series because the Tournament of Power arc is the perfect and definitive conclusion for the Super storyline. Goku has mastered Ultra Instinct. Beerus and the other Destroyers acknowledge their respect and are in awe, implying that they ...

Re: Piracy in Draon Ball... And other things

Is pirating anime even a big thing still? With all the active streaming services out today I figure sites like animeDuhb.TV (not a real site btw) would no longer have a purpose. Yes. As streaming services cost increase people have gone back to bootlegging. Even though a lot of streaming services pr...

Re: Funi's Kai dub and accuracy

I hate to say this but I DID hear that Z Fighters was a thing in the Japanese anime and that in the early Funimation Ocean dub they changed this to "The Defenders of The Earth". I am NOT sure 255% but I think that might be the reason. In the manga, Toriyama collectively refers to the main...

Re: How strong is Base Vegetto (Manga)?

In the manga I more or less have him as strong as Ultimate/Mystic Gohan before he transforms. That leaves only Buutenks and Buuhan stronger than him. Super Saiyan made him strong enough to dominate Buu. However I will entertain he's as strong as Buutenks which only leads to Buuhan being stronger tha...

Re: What is the secret to the series' longevity?

I think that it's a regurgitating effect. Prior generations of fans are introducing the work to the current generation, and as a result the series has continued. I don't know how much longer that will last, unless Dragon Ball changes, because the world and art surrounding Dragon Ball are always cha...

Re: The Unsolved Mystery of the Perfect Cell Remix

Didn't even know it existed prior to this year.

The Unsolved Mystery of the Perfect Cell Remix

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c5ea6PA-rrk For over 20 years, people have considered a remix to be the original theme of a beloved dragonball character, and absoloutly nobody knows who created it.

If Funimation had to censor "Mr.Satan" why not just call him Hades? I don't think Disney owns the right to that name.

Re: OG Z vs Kai - Subtitled Version

Japanese Kai is definitely a bit of downgrade from Japanese Z but its still overall better than Funi Kai Although I wouldn't recommend Kai in any language. I personally love Kai's English dub. If you're watching DBZ in Japanese then I wouldn’t watch the Kai version of that. It's my opinion but I do...
