Re: Dragon Ball Daima (2024)

That's kinda bad news because it will mean censorship, won't it? If it will air for one year I will be very surprised. I don't think it will air longer than one season with Toriyama having passed away (still feels unreal to write, say or think that). It won't mean censorship because the show is bei...

Re: One Piece Remake, fans are so lucky...

I would hardly say One Piece fans are lucky because of this. Although Dragon Ball is my favorite series, One Piece isn't far behind, its probably my 3rd or 4th favorite series. I am completely baffled by this decesion other than it's a confirmation of 2 things. 1. One Piece is coming to an end, and ...

Re: Dragon Ball Daima (2024)

It’s been a long time coming. And I am actually so happy that they are presumably taking a break from the “Super” storyline or whatever that is. This looks like it can be the Dragon Ball series us diehards were waiting for. Super is such a poorly written show. This looks like there was a vision for ...

Re: Dragon Ball Magic? *RUMOR*

I think I am going to cry. I have been waiting for years and I think now it is finally happening!!! LETS GO!!! IF the rumors are true, I think the narrative that GT had good ideas, but just failure to execute has just been amplified. I am excited for this new anime and I am ready to see it in action...

Re: What are the best episode and scenes in DBS

Ironically, us Dragon Ball fans are always accused of liking a "brain dead" show that just has a bunch of dudes screaming and pounding on each other nonstop, but honestly with Super I feel like this is actually now the case. While the original DB/DBZ had a great story and great characters,...

Re: Toei is throwing uncut and improved dubs at every OLD franchise of theirs (Would you like some for Dragon Ball?)

Made the full transition from being a dub fan to a full-on sub fan years ago, but I am absolutely not opposed to the idea of a redub of the original DB/Z/GT/Movies. I think it would be very good for dub fans to get an accurate script to fully so that they don't have a 40.00% inaccurate script that i...

Re: Do you like Super?

As much as I enjoy having more Dragon Ball content, Super has been such a letdown. While I consider the original Dragon Ball and Dragon Ball Z to be a masterpiece series that will stand the test of time and inspire many generations of storytellers and fans to come. Dragon Ball Super is just so awful...

Re: How popular is GT?

Thank you for your kind words and your trust in me. No problem at all. I would argue that GT is really only "popular" to those who follow the franchise closely. I love talking to people about Dragon Ball, but sadly, when the conversation shifts to GT, the only response that I get is that....

And really, I am curious and would love to know if do...

Re: Do you think the anime should adopt 3D animation?

3D anime is absolute and total garbage. It is such a disappointment to see Super Hero and Sand Land taking the 3D route. One of the major appeals of anime is it's beautiful animation, and now 3D is going to westernize and ruin it. DOWN with 3D. 2D FOREVER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!...

In all MAJOR series fights, his records are as follows. Note, while Goku does lose to these foes consistently, he usually comes back stronger at a later time and date to get the W.

Will there ever be an official Dragon Ball GT Soundtrack Release?

One of the greatest things about the Dragon Ball Franchise is how we have been graced with some incredible music, some of the best in all of anime if I do say so myself. However, we are missing an essential piece of the puzzle. Why is the Akihito Tokunaga soundtrack for GT still unreleased to this d...

Re: Could there be an inner struggle happening within Toei and/or the Dragon Ball department?

It truly is sickening what is going on. I know there are a ton of fans here that are happy with a manga release, and the occasional movie and video game. But let's face the facts, the anime is what propelled this franchise to its lasting success. I am in no way trying to take away from the importanc...

Re: Crunchyroll re-releasing Dragon Ball GT on DVD in February 2023

There are a couple oddities with this. The packaging says 16:9 but surely this is the same 4:3 master as the green bricks. Also. It is exciting that they seem to be including the original Dragon Ball GT logo on front of this box set instead of the Americanized logo. In the green bricks, even though ...

Re: Has Dragon Ball Aged Well?

In your opinion do the original three anime series (original, Z and GT) and their respective movies and series hold up as battle shounen from the 80s and 90s? I would say yes, aside from some of the humour from characters like Roshi and Bacterian, I think these shows tell Toriyama's story wonderful...
