Re: Do you think Dragon Ball will be remembered in 60 years?

I mean this without an combatitiveness: I don't really care. Just like today, young folks are living without Dragon Ball and in sixty years, people will continue to do that same. What matters most to me is the individual who might ask me if Dragon Ball is worth checking out. That's a one-on-one ...

Re: One Piece Episode 590 (The One Piece x Toriko x Dragon Ball Z Crossover) to Air on Toonami on March 4

Oh wow, we'll finally have a copy of the first half of this special that doesn't look like complete shit lol. I'm curious if there were any animation fixes done for this episode after it originally aired?

Re: The TV Anime Series Dragon Ball Super: Beerus will be broadcast on Fuji TV in the fall of 2026


It could mean that, but make no mistake, we have a very recent example of how badly this can go. Pretty much all the stuff they're doing here with DBS Remastered, is what they did in 2024 with the One Piece Fishman Island arc... and it was horrible. The pace was all kinds of nonsense, characters ...

This show is going to fucking suck so much if this is true lol


Yeah... I hope the leaks were exaggerating, but looking at the trailer, they seem pretty accurate unfortunately. Idk what they have against animators putting their own unique style into the character designs, to me that's one of ...

'Might' is hardly getting one's expectations up.


Even floating the idea in his mind is probably generating more expectations than it should considering the state of the manga rn, we don't even know if it will comes back anytime soon.
So if it does, I really wonder how much freedom they will ...

Thanks. I'm wondering how it will look regarding consistency and flow then.


It will look very Yammamuro as the trailer already teased. Leaks from Ajay apparently are also saying that the show will delete standout styles, even the good ones like Takahashi, and the entire look will be ...

Re: Would you ever want an as-yet-unwritten arc to end with the Dragon Team ganging up on the main villain?

I mean, that's basically just the Tournament of Power arc with Jiren's defeat at the hands of Gokuu, Freeza and #17. I'd like more of that, but I want it to be part of a character arc for those characters. Gokuu's relationships with Freeza and #17 being a pretty big part of the Tournament of Power ...

Re: 15th Anniversary of the Kenji Yamamoto controversy.

This was so funny and surreal to see unfold. I hope that someone leaks all of the tracks that Yamamoto composed someday. They're such an interesting gem of history for Dragon Ball and I think we should be able to document them.

Democrats are not “diet MAGA”

The vast majority of their policies are just lesser versions of what the Republicans are doing. They may talk differently than Republicans, but when it comes down to the actual policies that impact people's lives, they're not too far behind. Newsom in California ...

Re: Non-thread-worthy discussions






The Saiyan arc is 51 chapters in the manga, so that would be 5 chapters per episode; it would be way too fast. I don't know why people are in such a hurry to rush through everything, as it seems like anything that takes its time to flesh out its world and characters is automatically viewed ...

Re: Beerus featured in US White House promo video



Toriyama has always written "political" stories. It's hard not to. Just read Pink, for example.


Big disagree. His "political themes" are never explored, if they are, it's super shallow and superficial, and merely set dressing for the actual things he wanted to write (gags, or sexual themed ...

Re: Beerus featured in US White House promo video



On a side-note, this is the direct consequence of taking Dragon Ball as an apolitical, unserious work of art with terrible amoral protagonists and nothing to teach to its audience: Using its imagery as a display of dumb brute strength.



"Don't make your work political" is an argument I often ...
