Re: Do you want a Tournament of Power II?

Yeah, it was my favorite Super arc. A second tournament would also look a looooot more different than the last, from U7 line-up, to the other Universes. It would actually be kinda cool if out of the 12 universes, each would have to go trough some preliminaries with different rules, till 8 qualifiy f...

Re: Dragon Ball Super: Super Hero Box Office Thread

That's what I mean. They can rely on the rest of the planet to sell DB. If you take my 2nd paragraph into account, what this movie did was golden. It's almost as tho they got paid to market their own film. One Piece was marketed heavily because it needs to do exceptional at home. It needs to make a...

Re: Dragon Ball Super Strength Discussion Thread

Is it implied in the movie that Gohan lost his touch? Piccolo seems mad at him for not training in order to get stronger, since if he did he could surpass Goku and Vegeta. However, it seems he does train, in order to keep in shape, so he's no longer getting weaker. He's as strong as in the ToP. That...

Re: A quick rewrite of the Granolah the Survivor arc

I'm fine with the original arc enough, but I do think this rewrite is good & enjoyable I do wonder where you'd put the opportunities for humour in (as I think that was a neglected element in the original), & Vegeta even here with UE feels a bit superfluous as he was in past arcs Good questi...

Re: Official On-Going Dragon Ball Super Movie #2 Thread: "Super Hero"

Havent seen the movie myself just yet but I did come across this fun little theory about Android 13's design. So we know how in this movie they throw out an easter egg of Android 21 and we know she was modeled after Gero's wife and likewise we know #16 was modeled after their son. Well an artist by...

Re: Official On-Going Dragon Ball Super Movie #2 Thread: "Super Hero"

I hope the west really brings it at the box office and shows the bigwigs at Toei and Shueisha that we want more stuff like DBS: Super Hero. It's exactly what I personally want from DB. I don't mind letting the foolishness fly as long as its fun and features interesting and fan favorite characters o...

A quick rewrite of the Granolah the Survivor arc

So, the objectives of this rewrite are as follows: - Keep most of the characters and the story structure the same, in order for it to still be able to be called the same arc; - Change enough of the plot details to make it fit better lore wise and character wise, while making it bearable. The beginni...

Re: Rank the DBS arcs from worst to best

1* Super Hero - providential placement. Read the footnote. Actual list starts below. 1. Future Trunks - best villain, great twist ending and some of the best fights. In the anime, of course. 2. Battle of Gods (movie) - still a terrific story, after all this time. 3. Tournament of Power - Ultra Insti...

Re: Dragon Ball Super: Manga Chapter 87 - Official Discussion Thread

I read this chapter twice: first in isolation and then after reading the last two chapters for more context. Surprisingly, this ending was foreshadowed two chapters ago, when Elec told Gas that the most important thing is to get rid of Freeza and that he should hurry up and take the saiyans down (....

Re: Dragon Ball Super: Manga Chapter 87 - Official Discussion Thread

I'm just gonna say, the panel of Freeza killing Gas and the fact the speed lines are used as some kind of mask, implying Freeza turns into his Black form for a moment in order to get the kill, is pretty clever.

Re: Dragon Ball Super: Manga Chapter 87 - Official Discussion Thread

but they're hugely setback because they could only exist by introducing new DBs and the "I want to be the strongest" wish which makes it seem like Dragon Ball is just satirizing themselves. How well did wishing to be the strongest work out for anyone in this arc? Mostly well... I'm not su...

Re: Dragon Ball Super: Manga Chapter 87 - Official Discussion Thread

So, from what we can tell from the summary, the ending is actually perfectly fine. It ties up all the major loose ends, answers many of the lingering questions, while still leaving some bits and pieces here and there that can be followed up later, if needed. Freeza being there is perfectly justified...

Re: "Dragon Ball Super (Manga)" Official Discussion Thread

I think this has been the worst Dragon Ball arc ever, so a bad ending doesn't affect me. It's been affecting me much more having to go trough it for such a long time. At least now I can look forward to something else. Besides that, I found the twist cool and look forward to seeing more. Sad there's ...

It's finally over! That's the best news we could get! Any ending for this arc is good, as long as it's ending. Black Freeza looks great. Love it. It's going to be interesting to see where he was training until now. The fact he doesn't outright kill everybody also shows there might be more to it than...

I do not understand why it is thought that the Super anime can skip the arcs of the manga. I mean, all anime born from a manga adapts ALL the story arcs of the source manga.

Man, this manga is the definition of anti-climax. First Bra's rampage ends with talk no jutsu. Now Buu's rampage is stopped by a literal plot device. Care to guess how Vegetto's will end? We're so close to the end. Hopefully the pace picks up. After this arc we're probably getting a special, but aft...

Gas won't stay dead. He's probably going to get revived after he dies burning himself out. Either by Granolah or by the Heaters, but he's certainly not staying dead. After this, he, Oil and Maki are probably going to leave Elec in the dust. If Elec gets his comeuppance I'm not sure, but I see him ge...
