Mosuko is "Cosmo" backwards in Japanese. Mo-su-ko. Ko-su-mo = Cosmo.

Up to this point, Dragon Ball Super has more or less met or surpassed everyone's expectations in regards to giving the characters we grew up and fell in love with their moments to shine. From making Future Trunks OP to bringing back [spoiler]Ultimate Gohan,[/spoiler] fans across the globe have been ...

It's not as big a deal as we're making it. Just another reference to GT like Vegito's de-fusion [was to Gogeta's] where the blame is put on Goku and he has to take responsibility. Specifically, with the Evil Dragons.

Will our boy Gohan finally be redeemed? Our boy Gohan, who grew up to not only become the professional scholar he always dreamed of but also a loving and providing family man in addition to part-time superhero turned movie star? Will he finally be redeemed? Are they going to do something with this s...

Is that it's one giant meme. It's very close to leaning on the fourth wall. It's like the Toei interns all grew up on Dragon Ball Multiverse or a couple doujins and drew inspiration from them. Whereas DBGT was Toei forcing themselves on Toriyama's world, with their own interpretations and developmen...

Track suits are huge in Japan. Hell, they're huge in streetwear right now. Throw Gohan a Nike Tech and make him great again.

Toriyama just went Jorge Joester novel.

The whole Barry Kahn story in these last 2 episodes felt to me like a rehashing of the Baby Saga (which itself was inspired by the Garlic Jr. Saga with the idea of inflicting humans to make them stronger), the Watagash forms of Barry Kahn goes in the same linear way as Baby-Vegeta went: 1) fully hu...

Unfortunately, nope. Years ago however, I did have access to every episode, but my laptop died.

Pseudo-legendary tier bad ass rivals for Son Goku?

Spoilers for Dragon Ball Super EP. 66 Below: What if Goku and Vegeta defused on purpose as a means to let Trunks be the one to save the future? After all, Vegeta did lampshade this when Trunks figured SSJ Blue would be able to stop Black, understandably not wanting his son to slack on his fated duty...

I hate to come across as nitpicky, but shouldnt the title of the thread be "Why Does the Japanese Version of Dragon Ball Reads So Awkward" That said, Funi Kai and the Latin American version are heavily based on the original Japanese version and read just fine. You know, the same point I'm...

Unless you take a few liberties, any language translated close to 1:1 will sound awkward in the second language. Take it with a grain of salt and understand that no two languages can have a word for word translation and sound totally fluid. The real benchmark for whether it sounds awkward or not is...

This isn't in reference to the voices, so we can all leave our flame shields at home. I'm referring to the dialog itself. It sounds awkward or dated, kind of like how an American Saturday morning cartoon would sound, but an anime equivalent. For instance, look at some dialog taken from the recent sc...

Goku Black is Goku if he received and maximized the Mystic Power-up.

We have no idea of knowing who or what Black is.

I'd imagine it was like the first time we all saw Spider-Man get/use the black suit.

Because the actual form itself is almost useless for any non-Gohan character.

Caused everything in the arc to go wrong? Literally the entire Future Trunks arc is because he needlessly killed Freeza 3 hours before Freeza was destined to die in addition to meeting the others. And the kicker is that Trunks explicitly mentions this once he meets Goku. The reason for the Heart Vir...

Goku Black would be a great idea if they would just name him Turles.

Yeah okay, I'll take it.

Always wanted a Super Decisive Battle for the Entire Planet Earth 2.

To my knowledge this is something Ocean have always done when dubbing kid oriented anime, in fact you can hear it in all their Dragonball dubs including the Blue Water ones. There are of course exceptions, mature anime like Death Note, Black Lagoon and their various Gundam dubs seem to have had no ...
