Since "nothing conceptually new" is an admitted exaggeration, I won't bother addressing that. Your point that "power trumps everything" is explicitly undermined by Kale eventually getting worked around by the Pride Troopers. Like Cipher said, "focusing on the Saiyans" ...

snip snip. I kinda expected you two to be a bit disappointed,even if the chapter had some nice stuff.Even if you guys treat it as longer movies,I’ll ask your opinion on something that has been bothering me the most. There is basically nothing conceptually new (it’s an exaggeration)and potential is ...

Dragon Ball 1-17: Pilaf Bacterian Dr. Slump gang Tsurusennin Dragon Ball 17-42: Nappa 90% of Freeza's army Freeza most of the time (the anime made me like him a bit more though, same goes for Super) Cold Jinzouningen Juukyuugo Cell in his penultimate form Babidi and his buddies except for Dabra Hal...

The only sagas from OG Dragon Ball that I liked were the tournament sagas. Every other saga was bad to me because they were so boring. King Piccolo saga started out great but Yajirobe was a pain in the neck, and King Piccolo was a boring villain. Only sagas?That’s like more than half of series.What...

I think its no secret that Toyo isn't the most professional mangaka out their, so I'm genuinely unsure if he'd be able to handle the insane pressures of doing chapters on a weekly basis when his still struggling with getting stuff out on a monthly one. Toriyama could get Toyotaro an editor and some...

And yet the Superman movie couldn't take a page from DBZ and take the fight out of the damned city. Zod's goal was to murder people, he's trying to keep it in the city, unlike DB where the bad guy will go along with the hero's choice to take the fight elsewhere. Besides, DB has had fights in popula...

Wut?

Well at this point Frieza is the only actual recurring villain in the series.

But,no one is disputing that.The actual topic is about concept of recurring villain.You nonsensically bring that point,when that’s not what’s being discussed.

The Formula getting anything new is kinda getting old. Reading through the whole thread I don't know if you're trolling or not.Your whole argument is basically non existent and not even an argument.You're just describing what happened when the thread is why there shouldn't be a recurring villain an...

Dragon Ball isn't a superhero story. Comparing DB, a martial arts fantasy, with a superhero/detective story isn't a good comparison. So because Pilaf spouts orders to 2 incompetent lackies it's fundamentally the same as the Red Ribbon Army? Similarly are you arguing that not bringing Bulma along is...

I really liked the ribriane stuff.I always like his gags.

I've always given Super the benefit in the doubt. If there is one thing that somehow bothers me, it's not the animation quality of whatever. It's the fact they have to take into concililation a big part of their audience has matured over time, have seen other anime etc. So it wouldn't be bad the st...

If it is 4chan,I’m not buying it.

The leaks have started.

Probably my main gripe with him.

Gaffer tape is mistare fusion.

I think Piccolo or Gohan taking out an army in one blast would have made for a boring sequence in a martial arts action film.

Check my reply to fortunessj.

That's not forced and I wouldn't say shallow as revenge plots are common. We know that Frieza could be revived and we know that he would still want revenge so it wasn't forced at all just unoriginal and repetitive at worst.. An all powerful God of Destruction who had never been mentioned who just h...

So that almost entirely superfluous and boring battle against Freeza's army couldn't be considered filler? I mean, it had as much impact on the plot as anything that happened in the middle section of BOG, in fact, I would say that it had even less impact. That was an action sequence that involved m...

Oh,there is one thing that super anime does which is unrivaled by anything official outside of games:Fanservice

Reason for hit not trying to kill jiren:

In manga,killing will result in entire team being disqualified.Wonder if we might see the rule being actively imposed.
