RIP Mr. Shioya. Your work as Majin Buu is part of the reason Buu is my favorite Dragon Ball villain.

I find Hans Zimmer to be overrated. He is very talented and has made great music. But, I feel like a lot of his music sounds the same.


This. He's good at making music that sounds "epic", but his style as a whole has always come off as generic to me. His work is polished, but not very distinct ...

Anime Moro- In the past I have expressed interest in seeing an animated adaptation of the Moro arc, so I can't say I'm not intrigued by this announcement. I'm still interested in seeing how it'll be different from the manga.

Battle of Gods BEERUS- So the rumors were true, we're getting our third ...

Can Imperfect Cell regenerate based on a single cell or as long as his nucleus is preserved? Or is his regeneration limited compared to the other forms of Cell?


The way Cell's regeneration works doesn't change between forms. He can regenerate as long as his core remains, Namekian-style.

The ...

I'm not particularly fond of Akio Iyoku. Daima was the final confirmation for me that nostalgia pandering with low hanging fruit seems to be the only idea he has for new Dragon Ball stuff (While I love Daima, I didn't need Super Saiyan 4 to be in it and he's likely the reason it's there when that ...

This should have been ranked choice voting imo if they want to see who has the most mass appeal.

Bardock and vegito have no place here, this is based in the manga and bardock appears in one panel. Vegito is one like one fight and his entire personality and design are a composite of two others ...

The franchise started with the manga, so the 40th anniversary of the manga is the 40th anniversary of the entire franchise. There's no reason not to include characters from DBS, which is the official and canonical continuation of the original manga.

1. I don't put much stock in marketing spin ...

It's a celebration of the 40th anniversary of the manga. Not hard to understand why the character selection is such.
This is all a marketing stunt, it's not a scientific study about the "best" Dragon Ball character.

Let people have their fun.


This. Thank you.

It's the 40th anniversary of THE ...

None of these results are surprising to me, considering this is a literal popularity contest.

There's an indie film to be made here where two or three losers bring Toriyama back from the 1980s when he was still in his prime to draw new Dragon Ball for them, but all he does is sit around their apartment and play video games, build models and watch new action movies while they have to grapple ...

But more to the point, if you wanted more actually-authentic DB, you'd have to bring Toriyama back to life and make him draw comics again. Good luck.


Ironically, the idea of someone going to the trouble of bringing Toriyama back to life just to have him make more Dragon Ball stories for ...

I know it would be a terrible idea, but I'd like Piccolo Daimaoh to return in some form. It would be cool to see him confront Piccolo. Maybe they could even fuse, like in that GBA game.


Thinking about it:

Since the current Piccolo is completely reformed, for another Piccolo Daimao to be ...

I've watched Yugioh in Japanese. It is a different experience. You can appreciate it more when there isn't music going on all the time like in the dub.

I've said this many times in the past, but that right there has always been one of my main problems with Funi's Z dub.

In additional to ...

The only thing left to do would be to make a remake of the anime that is truly faithful to the manga, with things like Bulma having purple hair, Namekians having four fingers, or removing Gregory entirely.


Purple haired Bulma, four fingered Namekians, removing Gregory- That's all minor stuff ...

I also remember seeing the guy dissolving in the Cartoon Network airing so I'm confident that at most it was just shortened as EF2024 said.

I imagine that's about as unpopular as "Dragon Ball never needed to return".

Actually, this helps me remember that the anime adaptation of the Majin Buu arc was certainly a godsend in more ways than one. ESPECIALLY for Buu murdering the cast on the Lookout.

Indeed. The anime adaption is the version of the Buu arc I prefer, and that's because it does a lot to smooth over ...

But MAN, I will always appreciate the Buu arc not taking itself so darn seriously. I'll admit that there were times when the arc REALLY needed to put a pin in the gag stuff (Buu killing off the majority of the cast is an ESPECIALLY big example) , but aside from stuff like that? It's just nice to ...

For the past decade now I've personally been big on making sure I know my shit on anything I speak to people about because I don't want to spread wrong information if I can help it; so for me, this is about doing my part to curb the further spread of deep-seated misinformation about something I ...

Christ, am I seriously going to have to eventually make yet another pages and pages long, hyper methodically detailed, and image-filled "explainer" thread on this subject like I did with Wuxia back in the day where I have to hand-hold people through another easily Google-able, not at all obscure ...
