Re: The Dragon Ball Rights Dispute: Shueisha, Capsule Corp Tokyo, and the Toriyama Estate




Something I'm confused about is how this Iyoku guy got the anime rights. From what I read he was an employee at Shueisha, then he pulled this coup when they hanged his position in the company.
So by that logic after leaving the company wouldn't corporate still have the anime rights? Where ...

Re: The Dragon Ball Rights Dispute: Shueisha, Capsule Corp Tokyo, and the Toriyama Estate




If Dragon Ball becomes embroiled in a rights war and ends up like Candy Candy, Toei must be thanking their lucky stars or God that they redubbed and relaunched One Piece when they did or they would be TOAST now.


But it begs the question if Toei is aware of all the issues going on why in the ...

Re: The Dragon Ball Rights Dispute: Shueisha, Capsule Corp Tokyo, and the Toriyama Estate



Not sure why I'm seeing people say oh iyoku gives off evil vibes or alluding to it. If anything he just seems VERY incompetent and would benefit from others helping him out. i praise him for his attempts at at least trying to do something with the franchise but i think his issue is he is ...

Re: The Dragon Ball Rights Dispute: Shueisha, Capsule Corp Tokyo, and the Toriyama Estate

I had a hunch trouble was brewing in this franchise ever since 2020 ish it seemed weird after the "success" broly had they never did anything to keep the ball rolling. I feel like this feud had been going on for about 4 years tbh we just were kept in the dark. The info ajay got about the anime i ...

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

With all this online backlash and growing number disguntled voices complaining when a Dragonball product like Sparking Zero is on these verge of beng released or has released be it a toy,anime series,video game, hell even a towel set. I've often wondered why has there never been a well organized ...

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

i still think while we have time to backtrack they should cancelled this game. I think the nostalgia of the old games is clouding peoples judgement that this game will be good in any capacity.

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

I knew it was a terrible idea to bring back Tenkaichi and the roster was one of the reasons (among many others i wont get into) Ppl forget all this same bitching and moaning happened with Fighterz early on where ppl (majority older fans to be honest) were tryna gatekeep the roster due to their ...

Idk something is off with the visuals/artsyle of this game it doesn’t look to be of high quality if anything it looks more like those “Bro ___ should hire you” unreal engine game concept videos.” Or that one crappy Raging Blast fan game that never happened. Not to mention the clunky & jank ...

A Complete and utter steaming pile of hot dogshit from the pen of a man who probably can’t remember much less write his own name?

The Slam Dunk movie disproves that it out grossed ...

Re: Is there a double standard regarding plagiarism in the Franchise




I would definitely describe Toyo-Tarou as being a shitty artist and comic creator but I also don't think that it is a big deal considering the shitty workplace environment that his employer thrusts upon him is inhumane. You're going to make bad decisions when you work constant 8-16 hour work ...

Re: "Dragon Ball FighterZ" Official Discussion Thread


Game has been done for a long time.

Labcoat was an opportunity for easy money reusing assets they already had. Like said above, the last balance patch was solely because they released a broken character and people were up-in-arms.

The rollback update only exists as a test for the sequel. They ...

Re: Is there a double standard regarding plagiarism in the Franchise


While I think the Captain America thing was pretty bad, I also think Toyotaro learned from it since I don’t think there has been a traced panel/scene in the DBS manga for a long time. It’s been so long since I read Naruto so I can’t comment on whether that was traced or not but Goku punching Jiren ...

Why is it that when it was found that Kenji Yamamoto plagiarized a good majority of his soundtracks he was swiftly dismissed and cast into the abyss never to be heard from again. Yet, Trace *cough cough* I mean Toyotaro still walks amongst us


I think Yamamoto was relatively safe when he only ...

How does it speak for itself? Super Hero made around 90 million?

Those online public opinions matter to them but as we've found out, they aren't necessarily representative.
