Nostalgia isn't the reason why people prefers DBZ or why it is beloved.

The only way Super's fanboys can justify liking it is by downplaying the quality and achievements of the classic series.


Let's have real, genuine conversations instead of antagonistic, sweeping generalizations.

This is ...

This part of the conversation is over. Thank you!

It doesn't matter that it's no longer "modern"; what matter is its quality; which is low.


You're doing a shitty job of winning people over to your point of view there, hon.


I'm not even trying to, on the other hand I have laughed upon reading this tantrum.

Why are all you new people so ...

I'm currently planning an insane re-read/re-watch of Dragon Ball that includes Bruce Lee and Jackie Chan movies, Dr. Slump, Toriyama's many one-shots, Fist of the North Star, and Yu Yu Hakusho, all slotted in chronologically in release order. I want to more deeply appreciate Dragon Ball as a ...

Copying and pasting from a prior thread where I detailed this, so the visual evidence is all right there in one place for you:

Other than one contradiction within Daizenshuu 7* where in the front timeline it lists Bra as being born (a year after Pan) in 780:

Super is factually worse than Daima. You can still prefer it though.

I didn't ask or care.


Your other posts were perfectly fine. We’re entitled to like what we like for whatever reasons. That’s part of what makes discussion so fun!

But you’re not here for discussion. You’re here to be ...

Piririn stems from a fan fusion design contest held in Weekly Shonen Jump in 1995; he was one of the designs Toriyama made as an example to guide contestants on what to do. We guide readers through the entire contest and all of its winners on this page:

There have certainly been plenty of interviews post- Dragon Ball (most of which we've prioritized and kept up on in our " Translations " section), but there's very little in the way of what you're looking for.

Perhaps the most notable is one from JUST AFTER Dragon Ball finished: the WIRED interview ...

We have a general purpose translation request thread in another area of the forum. To repeat a few points about that:

Machine/"AI" translation is not sufficient to get full, proper, accurate context. It is at best a head-start in roughly understanding the baseline of what you're looking at, but ...

This is referring to several people posting in this thread, including the topic creator and several of those responding. All would do well to reassess things here.

The whole conversation is really strange.


I agree -- largely in its tone than in its content.

Who are you folks appearing out of nowhere, guns blazing with antagonism from the very first post in a thread? Why do you feel this attitude is necessary, nevermind acceptable? All it does is fuel ...

In Japanese, Sachie refers to Zalid as the "Martial Arts World Cup Junior Class Champion" (格闘ワールドカップ ジュニアクラスチャンピオン Kakutō Wārudo Kappu Junia Kurasu Chanpion ); you might even want to go with a different translation for "martial arts" since it's not based on budō here, but I see "martial arts" as ...

This article on the Dragon Ball Official Site pretty much single handedly covers all the Super manga arcs (it leans more toward collected volumes than chapters, but they either line up properly, are obvious, or have other external announcements that we can use for proper delineations that I can dig ...

Why are we being so rude and antagonistic? Completely unnecessary, and very embarrassing to have to read and address.

Would definitely be worthwhile to review the community guidelines that you (plural you) agreed to (twice!) prior to registration. Everyone has a bad day once in a while, but this is ...

An obscure question: In the Toriyama one-shot "Sachie-chan Good!!", upon meeting him on the alien craft, Sachie says (in the Viz English translation)that Zarid is a junior martial arts world champion. The DB Wiki (yeah yeah, I know) claims that this is actually a direct reference to the Tenkaichi ...
