Re: Could there be an inner struggle happening within Toei and/or the Dragon Ball department?
Super Super Hero was a failure you guuuuuys https://erzat.blog/one-piece-and-dragon-ball-super-films-boost-toei-animation-earnings-to-record-high-as-of-first-half-of-fy2023/ It’s barley edging out One Piece this FY2023 when for 5 years straight DB was kicking its ass as a franchise. No really https...

Re: Could there be an inner struggle happening within Toei and/or the Dragon Ball department?
Looking at what DBSSH is... 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? It's a 90% CGI movie from a franchise that's typically always been hand-drawn The Slam Dunk movie disproves that it out grossed supershitro i...

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 days f...

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 aren'...

Re: Dragon Ball Super: Manga Chapter 89 - Official Discussion Thread
You know aggressively mid chapters like these last 2 where it’s just an endless cavalcade of superfluous dogshit. Is when I wish we could have a GameShark that works for real life instead of video games so we could give Toyo x999 Rare Candys so he could get on the level of a modern day shounen manga...

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 ...

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

Re: Could there be an inner struggle happening within Toei and/or the Dragon Ball department?
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. I want to reiterate Abed that its weird fans are trying to act like Super Super Hero was some kind of bomb when it made 93 mil...

Re: Is there a double standard regarding plagiarism in the Franchise
Why do the Shueisha and Toei Animation executives still walk among us when they steal their employees money, provide inhumane production schedules and create inhospital workplace environments? Because the system isn't about what's right, it's about what makes the powerful the most money with the le...

Re: Is there a double standard regarding plagiarism in the Franchise
The whole thing with Captain America was dumb since the body movement look a bit different. Even my art teacher felt like it wasn't 100% the same. Body moment is tricky considering that we all move and walk pretty similarity. It wasn’t just captain america. The punch Goku did on Jiren copied the on...

Re: Could there be an inner struggle happening within Toei and/or the Dragon Ball department?
I think the explanation that Shuiesha wanted Toei to wait for more content to adapt made the most sense whether it's the manga or outlines from Toriyama. From what we've seen, there doesn't seem to be much demand for Dragon Ball not involving Toriyama. Since BoG, we've only gotten Heroes which is a...

Re: Dragon Ball Super: Super Hero Box Office Thread
I guess Dragon Ball needs to do a musical then :lol: it needs to do something to revitalize because at this rate DB is falling behind. Sell the franchise , completely remove The Three T’s would be a good start right now trust is destroyed with the ones making the content and fans. Ppl say there is ...

Re: Could there be an inner struggle happening within Toei and/or the Dragon Ball department?
I've noticed this as well. Maybe 'Super' as a brand is struggling? Before anyone says, I'm well aware how much money DB makes. I just mean that maybe if hypothetically it stayed DBZ this would not be happening. Super Hero's marketing was abysmal, even compared to DBS Broly, but we're all aware of t...

Re: Could there be an inner struggle happening within Toei and/or the Dragon Ball department?
Why are you arguing that Dragon Ball should be sold to an American studio right after acknowledging that there are non-Toriyama led projects and fan projects that are popular? If anything you should be arguing that Dragon Ball should be public domain so that anyone can create and sell Dragon Ball p...

Re: "Dragon Ball Super" Series Official Announcement & Discussion Thread
I understand that but when your main product the anime is bombing globally except North America that’s not a good sign in any regard. The anime is not the main product. It's just a commercial to remind people to go buy merchandise. Plus smaller and more segmented markets, so you won't make much mon...

Re: "Dragon Ball Super" Series Official Announcement & Discussion Thread
So the whole web series stuff was nothing but a rumor, right? :lol: I don't know why people are still hopeful we might get a new animated series as even though Toei knows this could be good ($$$) for them, they don't want to put effort in something that is still doing all right in the charts.
