Re: Questtion about the "Wukong Hospital"
It's a reference to the character Son Goku was based off of, Sun Wukong, also known as the Monkey King. Yes. I know about the meaning of "WUKONG". But I want to know if the name of the hospital is really "WUKONG" or if it's just a guess. Because I didn't find anything really cle...

Question about the "Wukong Hospital"
I think most of the people here knows that "Wukong" is the name of the Hospital where Goku was hospitalized after his fight with Vegeta. But the entire word "WUKONG" doesn't seems to appear in manga neither in anime. In the anime, doesn't seems to have a letter between "W&qu...

Re: Why don't the movie fall in with the series?
I really don't believe Toriyama would use the term "fan fiction" in any capacity. If you don't have a source, zit was never said. For Movies, GT or Filers, Akira use the term "Side Story". He uses the term in english. In Japanese, "Side Story", basically means that it ...

Re: Pure of heart to fire the Genki Dama?
It's good to point that in manga they don't use the term "pure" in this case. Goku says to Kuririn to aim the "evil ki". And after that,says to Gohan that anyone without "evil ki" can manipulate the Genki Dama. The term "evil ki" is "AKU NO KI" in ja...

Re: All About Toriyama
Toriyama has two children, Sasuke (son) and Kikka (daughter). Their births were mentioned in the tankobon intros (I forget exactly when they were born), but only Sasuke's name was revealed. (I actually learned his daughter's name from that developer room ending of Chrono Trigger, where Toriyama had...

Re: How strong did the humans get?
Exactly what I said. I said Vegeta is never suggested to use OVER 300x gravity. Which would mean he did use 300x gravity of course. Did you not read my post or something? I was just trying to show the part where Vegeta asks for a 300G machine. Only one that value is cited. Didn't want to say you're...

Re: How strong did the humans get?
Vegeta is never suggested to have used over 300x gravity. The humans are hard to judge. But 20k seems awfully low. I think the humans being in the mid hundred thousands to the low millions is probably the best range or a very accurate range. I also think humans power is all dependant on plot device...

Re: How strong did the humans get?
It's definitively depends on our own interpretation of the facts. At least, basing on canonical facts. I think power under 20,000 is valid the same as powers over millions are valid too. Depending on point of view. Particularly, I'd prefer to think the earthlings (Kuririn and Tanshinhan) reaches the...

Re: Name Pun Round-up
Randosel Town In keeping with the school theme for some of the character/place names during Gohan’s stint as a high school student, this comes directly from ランドセル/ randoseru , “backpack” or “satchel”, which derives from the German raenzel . Accordingly, in Viz the place is called “Backpack Town”. S...

Re: "Dragon Ball SD" Coming To Saikyō Jump (UPDATE: Confirmed)
The art is nothing impressive for a official release. It looks pretty amateur (for a official release)... The art of most of the popular DB fan mangas is honestly better (DBM, DBAF and DB universe F). But I did somewhat enjoy the story, even though its nothing new. I don't think that way. (about th...

Re: "Dragon Ball SD" Coming To Saikyō Jump (UPDATE: Confirmed)
I'm interested by this art, although I am slightly disappointed that it's going to be a remake of Dragon Ball . I was sort of hoping that it would be something new, but no matter. At least it looks promising. And some of you guys have been saying that you've read it already? How? :? http://mangastr...
