Re: Dragon Ball Super: Manga Chapter 102 - Official Discussion Thread

Funny thing is in the super manga Gohan already had a rage boost moment against Moro, and it amounted to nothing. And it was in response to Goku being in extreme mortal danger!:

Re: Fanmanga - DB Multiverse

I've actually enjoyed most of the interruptions to the tournament besides the majin Bra one, but that was almost entirely due to just how loooooooong it went on for. I just checked and it literally went on for 3 years.

Re: Super Saiyan 3

I love super saiyan 3 buuuut it's an absolutely terrible transformation for more than 1 person to share design-wise. It gives anyone who has it the exact same hair and face, maybe give or take 1 bang. I can see why it was never given to Gohan or Vegeta. I also much prefer the design with the halo li...

Re: If Toriyama decided to bring Zamasu back

I'm not at all eager for his return but I do like the idea of the manga version of him being an Agent Smith like entity in a tainted universe. Can replicate himself and has just taken over that particular universe but can't leave. And I'd like to see blue fusion level character vs like 1000 of him

Re: Gotenks(Post-Rosat)>>Goku and Vegeta

It's incredibly ambiguous wording that's for sure. I take it to mean his base form overtook Vegeta but not Goku, considering it's a picture of his base form.

Re: Do you think Dragon Ball would have worked better if Goku died on Namek?

Dragon Ball should have ended after the Raditz fight. Goku is finally dead, his only son kidnapped by a demon and raised to be evil, and 2 aliens are going to destroy the earth in a year. The bad ending.

Re: Dragon Ball Super Strength Discussion Thread

I think Broly is top dog but do genuinely think this is a fuck up of the broader super continuity, is a retcon, and that there just wasn't clear enough communication about this amongst Toyo and others. I don't think there was any hidden meaning behind Goku saying he's never faced anyone as tough as ...

Re: Dragon Ball Super Strength Discussion Thread

Re-reading the chapter and Vegeta states explicitly that Broly can't access his full power because he's scared of snapping. Vegeta also says "to battle without losing yourself is an achievement, but you seem unable to unleash your true might" seems pretty explicit that Broly can't access a...

Re: Dragon Ball Super Strength Discussion Thread

I know all promotional material points towards Beast being stronger than UI and UE but the fact that Gohan can whip it out so casually can maybe indicate that it's not as strong. Toyotaro likes to give the strongest forms some sort of handicap and it doesn't seem like Beast has one yet, so from a n...

Re: Dragon Ball Super: Manga Chapter 101 - Official Discussion Thread

Enjoyable chapter and I'm glad to see that it very much seems like a bridge between stories and not an epilogue. Laughed at the panel of Goten and Trunks just sitting in the car while Gohan inspects it. Loved them dedicating a zoom in over 3 panels to Vegeta bragging about beating Goku. Also loved B...

Re: Non-thread-worthy discussions

Moro arc was mostly Toyo with Toriyama's supervision/corrections/revisions. For Granolah though, Toriyama wrote the main general plot outline like with previous arcs (Future Trunks, TOP) Super Hero section is based on Toriyama's full movie script Toyo wrote the original outline, and then Toriyama w...

Re: Anyone else disappointed with the whole new cell max, gohan beast, orange piccolo etc

I hate how the current designs for all the strongest characters except Goku (Broly, Piccolo, Vegeta, and Gohan) are now all intentionally big and/or monstrous.

It honestly doesn't seem very Dragon Ball to me.

Re: Why Tenshinhan/Tien can, and should get more relevance

I always liked Tenshinhan having a long standing grudge against Vegeta and not accepting or forgiving him for killing him and his friends (but having to leave things alone for practical reasons). He felt like he was an actual sane person sometimes. Would be cool to see a character have that kind of ...

Re: Dragon Ball Super Strength Discussion Thread

I’m starting to think Jiren is just plain weaker than Belmond in raw power. Toppo says Jiren is stronger “in terms of combat skill alone”. I think that would be more or less correct. In raw power, Jiren wasn't that much stronger than SSB Goku/Vegeta, according to Super Hero. He can make the differe...

Re: Has Toriyama Ever Given An Interview About Ultra Instinct?

We know that Toriyama came up with the principles of ultra instinct all the way back in the RoF movie, it being a martial arts technique where you can move your body without thinking. The movie also establishes it as the signature style of Whis. It being a form in itself may have been a request from...

Re: Fanmanga - DB Multiverse

Hmmm, I thought the Goku and Vegeta fight was super satisfying and I love that it ended looking like Goku won in 1 punch again. Also was keen to finally Gast vs XXI. Hopefully this last ditch effort from Vegeta is short. Lol, if this fight takes a whole chapter and then it's another months long seri...

Re: Do you like Super?

Really enjoyed the manga until Toyo started coming up with the story concepts himself, and then it had a decline in quality with some great moments here and there. I loved how the U6 arc up until the tournament of power had a very natural progression and exploration of the wider god system. Now ever...
