Re: Dragon Ball Super Strength Discussion Thread

Beast had a lot more trouble handling Max than in the movie. Gohan struggled during the beam clash and needed outside help and he looks exhausted after the fight is over. Considering Max and Piccolo are somewhat relative as well, I'd say it's safe to say Black Freeza is still top dog. I can't imagin...

Re: Dragon Ball Super: Manga Chapter 100 - Official Discussion Thread

It looks like there's a scene of Carmine escaping and regrouping at RRP HQ. Red Ribbon arc 4.0 incoming?

Goku letting Vegeta go is a very touching scene

I was watching the Saiyan arc in the anime and when I came to the scene where Goku pleads with Kuririn to let Vegeta go, I found myself tearing up a bit. I began wondering why because it's not typically a scene fans mention when discussing the more emotional and gut -wrenching moments in the series....

Re: A new Budokai Tenkaichi has been announced

Curious about the two Trunks we saw in the trailer. Trunks (sword) and Trunks (no sword) make sense as separate characters but I hope we don't go back to the BT standard of having several versions of the same character. No need to have Z Trunks (sword) and Super Trunks (sword) when a single Trunks c...

Re: If faced with the choice of sacrificing the franchise's massive popularity

What's hilarious is that you throw every post-GT followup in there at the end like it's a tiny side-note. The question of "would you sacrifice most of modern Dragon Ball in exchange for a better preservation and presentation of the original series" is WAY more interesting than a "pop...

Re: Death Battle Goku vs Superman again...again

Should there even be another one? I could've lived without a third one, two same match ups were already enough. Expect any differences in approach? For this match up they confirmed they will consider "everything" for Goku now (Heroes and Xeno(?)) and they're going acknowledge that Superma...

Re: Death Battle Goku vs Superman again...again

I'm guessing they'll use Heroes!Goku this time? Even if it's Super!Goku, he's gotten way stronger since RoF. They should probably also narrow down a specific version of Superman, they used some weird composite in the previous two.

Re: Dragon Ball Super: Manga Chapter 99 - Official Discussion Thread

Considering this chapter ends with the Makankosappo, then in all likelihood half of #100 will segway into the next arc.

What other series are even comparable to this for you to try to establish a pattern?
Toriyama's other non-DB or non-Slump works are one volume long manga or 2h long movies.

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

So what's next it's gotta be one of four things: 1. New content. 33% chance 2. Hiatus. 33% 3. Adapting Daima. 33% 4. Adapting rof or broly. 1% chance. If Daima gets it's own adaptation by someone other than toyo then obviously the other options have a better shot. I don't see them willingly spoilin...

Re: Dragon Ball Super: Manga Chapter 98 - Official Discussion Thread

Piccolo is consistently really, really dumb in-universe despite the series trying its best to portray him as the smart tactician of the group. This is just another one of his blunders, no big deal. He's not a great writer. I'm sure he just forgot. He literally wrote that Fused Zamasu wasn't a Kaiosh...

Re: Dragon Ball Daima (2024)

I don't see why it can't take place after Superhero. Beerus can just go back to sleep for another few months or years, and Goku and Vegeta don't always have to be training with Whis.

Re: Super and the narutoification of Dragon Ball (or why the meditation line actually matters)

Monumentous post. It is something I've noticed too and elaborated on other threads. One thing I'd also like to add is that what contributed to this ethereal essence of Goku's wisdom was the fact he was out of commission or absent for almost the entirety of part 2's arcs. Goku is always present now, ...

Re: Dragon Ball Daima (2024)

Maybe is not a wish, maybe the whole Shenlong part is bait and the cause of the plot is actual Evil Magic? I cant think of a wish to Shenlong that makes sense that would cause everyone to become a kid but make Trunks and Goten babies, on top of that Maron looks older than them... I'm guessing they ...

I guess it can take a hiatus and start again once Daima airs to cover it :lol: We don't even know if Daima and Super are even connected in any way (as the trailer is amibigious about it). Kibitoshin being unfused but Beerus and Whis not being present at all makes it feel like an AU story. I don't s...

With the announcement of Dragon Ball Daima, it wouldn't surprise me that the potential special 100th Chapter announcement people are anticipating is that the DBS Manga is ending :lol: I'd say that's one of the two possibilities. The other one being a new arc starting. Two more chapters to wrap up S...

Goku being turned into a kid is not something GT gets credit for, even among some of its defenders. I dunno, man. I'm probably one of the biggest GT haters on the planet and that's one idea I never had a problem with, at least on paper. It's mostly the execution that really soured that series for m...

Re: Dragon Ball Daima (2024)

I doubt we'll see them for more than a few episodes but I'm really disappointed with a lot of the designs for the cast. They don't really look like kids, they just look chibi. Gyuumao, Roshi and Mr. Satan are the only ones that look any different. Piccolo, Chi-Chi, Vegeta and Goku have a child desig...
