Re: Akira Toriyama Passes Away.

Absolutely devastated over this. He was still so young and I know he had so much more to offer this world. Thank you for everything, Toriyama.

Re: Dragon Ball Daima (2024)

I have a feeling this is going to be one of those situations where it was intended to be a small fun side project to bridge the gap between Super Hero and Super 2. But then everyone loved working on it, it comes out in Japan and becomes a ratings and merchandising phenomenon, and then Toei never get...

Re: Dragon Ball Daima (2024)

Three years of production time, most care Toei has ever given to DB, Toriyama involved more than ever before, gorgeous animation and backgrounds…for this. GT redux? I don’t get the obsession with kid Goku. DB hasn’t been an adventure gag manga in over 30 years. I don’t get why they’re so hellbent on...

Re: Toei Establishes Department Focused on Dragon Ball

It might also be a contingency plan for how to handle Dragon Ball in the future, in particular how to handle the property after Toriyama and/or Nozawa pass away, which is gonna happen eventually. Dragon Ball is too big for Toei and Shuesha to just put aside because of those two events. As for the c...

Re: Official "DB Super 2018 Movie" Discussion Thread

So we are up to 12 universes again (its not 18, until proven), jiren and goku will have a rematch in the future, and goku doesnt have UI according to himself. I guess the possibilities of this movies foe being jiren level or above has gone down a lot. I don’t think MUI is gone for good, it’s just n...

Re: Super Episode 131 (25 March 2018)

Phenomenal. Like I just don’t have the words. I need the Super movie in my veins right now. Loved the Freeza and Goku team up at the end to take Jiren down. Loved Jiren’s character by the end. 17 is legend. Love that Ultra Instinct isn’t something Goku can just turn on like SSJ. Love Goku and Vegeta...

Kai 1-3 were still new and sealed, $60. Kai 4 was like new, $20.

Makes sense, most publishers dump their heavy hitters during the holidays. January is usually a dead month.

Re: DB for owning digitally?

Buying the manga from Amazon is my preferred method because you don't have to be connected to the internet in order to read them, unlike with ComiXology and ViZ. I dunno if that is how it used to be, but it’s no longer the case. The ComiXology app does allow you to download comics and view them off...

Re: As A FUNi Dub Fan, Has Z Kai Replaced Z for you?

No question. While the dub had gotten a little better by the Buu saga, the rest of the show was offensively bad. Terrible scripts, amateur acting, and that music that would not shut up. I've always wanted to get my kid into DB early, so an English dub was always going to be a necessity, and I'm so g...

Re: DB for owning digitally?

Microsoft is running their annual anime sale, and you can buy Dragon Ball Z for $12.99 per season. They've also got Battle of Gods, Resurrection F, and Super for sale at a discount as well. I believe the sale ends in 5 days.

I really like the idea of naming it Dragon Ball V. But I'm sure it'll be something like Ultra, or Super Z.

Re: Where will new stories go after Ultra Instinct?

The only way I can see them handling Goku’s continued interest in training Uub is that if he believes it will be easier for the boy to learn UI. Perhaps the problem with fighters like Goku and Vegeta attaining UI is that they have a lifetime of technique and skills they’ve perfected and honed, and b...
