Re: And the main reason Toriyama came up with the SSj form..
What you are actually trying to say is why Super Saiyan Goku has gold hair (white in the manga). The main reason why this happened is because people would understand better in the black & white manga that Goku has trasformed. But okay, not drawing the hair black it's on the perks...

Re: And the main reason Toriyama came up with the SSj form..
^I concur.
Well, that's at least the reason why Super Saiyan LOOKS the way it does, not necessarily why it exists in the first place.
Toriyama mentions that this was the reason why the transformation existed, not necessarily the concept of a "Super Saiyan". There's a difference between the two ...

And the main reason Toriyama came up with the SSj form...
I was scanning through the interviews on the main site and came across something really interesting.
It said that the main reason why Toriyama decided to do the SSj as a transformation was his assistant was taking too long to do the black fill on Goku's hair...
What???

Re: Piccolo/Humans didn't learn any of Kaio's techniques?
I have this personal theory that Tenshinhan somehow channeled the Kaioken into his Shin Kikoho, explaining how he was able to pummel 2nd form Cell, when logic states that he was only a fraction of Cell's power.
If Tenshinhan's regular Kikoho amplifies his blasting ability by (eg.) 20x, a basic ...

Re: Mike's Upcoming JPNS Toy Releases Thread
I just recieved the Medicos Super Figure Art Collection Super Saiyan Son Goku version 1 from a Chinese seller.
I actually have a question:
Does anyone know if they sell failed quality control versions of figures through non-Japanese sellers?
I mean, these figures are probably still good and 100 ...

Re: What's your most recent Dragonball purchase?
It's not at my house yet, but I ordered the Medicos Super Figure Art Collection Super Saiyan Son Goku (ver. 1)
It's perhaps the highest coveted figure (and version of this figure) of Goku out there currently. It was released in 2011, and is about 10 inches tall.

I haven't received it yet, but I just bought the Medico's Super Figure Art Super Saiya-jin Son Goku (Ver. 1). This is the Goku statue of all Goku statues.
I've wanted this thing for over a year now, but couldn't find one in my price range. I finally found one that I could afford. I've seen some of ...

I need help finding something
I could've sworn that I read somewhere that Toriyama discarded Super Saiya-jin 2 because his editor said it looked too much like the original Super Saiyan, however, I can't find this statement anywhere.
Does anyone know if this was indeed stated, or if it's just some made-up fan junk?

Sorry if this was already stated, but the "exclusive figure" that's for the European "Goku" edition is simply the Master Stars Piece Goku from Banpresto.
You can buy it on Amazon right now for $30.
I was thinking about getting it a couple months ago, but the paintjob is kinda meh... even if the ...

Re: When did Goku learn Bukujutsu?
It doesn't make sense for them to explicitly make mention of Goku learning Bukuujutsu in his final attack against Piccolo if he'd used it prior in the Tenkaichi Budokai. It also doesn't make sense for Goku to improvise flying by shooting a Kamehameha from his feet if he knew Bukuujutsu at that time ...

Re: Why did the Anime remove sparks on SSJ2?
Of course the simple explanation is either lack of time (deadlines had to be met) or they simply didn't have the budget to do so for whatever episodes that they appeared in.
We also have to realize that SSj2 wasn't actually recognized as a "different level" in-universe until the Tenkaichi Budokai ...

Re: Who would you like to see animating new Dragon Ball?
Believe it or not, I wouldn't mind an American company like Dreamworks or Universal doing it (for a CGI adaptation), as long as the character designs were at least close to the original, and the story was (if not identical) at least "Toriyama-esque".

Re: What's your most recent Dragonball purchase?
It's a resin made (or at least sold by) by Djfungshing. But it is a rip off of the pose of the gashapon buu. Many resin figures do this. I'm pretty sure it is one of the older resins so it isn't that great looking close up.

Re: How strong is Suno?
She lives in a remote region where daily chores and "self-sustenance" is probably a must. She's definitely stronger and more fit than a city girl of the same age, probably even stronger than Bulma.
