Re: "Dragon Ball Z: Kakarot" Official Discussion Thread

My biggest issue that this is a game that focused on Z and didn't include not a single original Z movie, but include Towa, Mira, and Android 21? I'm a fan of this game, but they missed a tremendous opportunity to include a ton of content. I would've preferred if they included some of the original m...

Re: "Dragon Ball FighterZ" Official Discussion Thread

When a sequel eventually does happen I imagine there'll be cuts to the current roster, so they'll have room to add new characters without it becoming bloated. I'd be very surprised if everyone made it over. Why would they need to cut anyone ? couldn't they just port them over as is while also inclu...

This is what I'm worried about as well, especially after how they handled Merus being "erased".

Re: Beneficial Wishes That Should Have Been Made

Basically any wish that would give them an edge during a fight. However, these are martial artists with a code of honor, so they'd never do something like that.

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

This would create a sense of urgency and would lead to Granola really rushing to Freeza to get his revenge. In this regard the long hair may be visually suggestive of Super Saiyan 3 which too shortened the user’s lifespan (Gotenks’ fusion lasted less and Goku’s time on earth expired faster). Didn't...

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

For a warrior like Granola, the price being the inability to fight would be worse than death, so it would be interesting if it's something similar. Besides that, I really like his new design, as he looks like someone who can easily hold his own with the best of them. I can't help but believe that Fr...

I haven't read that arc in awhile, so maybe I'm mixing things up, but I'm pretty sure there was something similar int he manga.

I think he did in one of the tournament's chapters. I could be wrong but I'm pretty sure someone mentioned this in another topic.

Re: Can DB Ever Move Past Goku?

I don't have near the amount of dislike of current DB as you, Bruce... Matches. Damnit, why do I keep doing that? It suffers from the issue with most of the revivals we see. There are more bad revivals than there are good ones and they all suffer great from a handful of big issues. I don't see the ...

Re: Can DB Ever Move Past Goku?

Does anyone think that by getting rid of Goku or diminishing his presence DB's going to enter some Renaissance period? I'm asking in earnest. No, but not because the idea itself wouldn't work, but because the current writers couldn't tell a good story if their lives depended on it, with or without ...

Better writer than Toriyama ? Comments like this are exactly why it is so hard for me to take the super fan base seriously, and why I call most of you fanboys. Don't you realize that the Shonen genre we are familiar with today is very heavily influenced by Toriyama and his original manga ? Or that s...

Wasn't that from back in December and it turned out to be Heroes related ? Regardless, I do think a new movie will be announced this December for a fall 2022 release.

Re: Unpopular DB opinions

The first Broly movie is actually written well and a lot of misconceptions people have with it is due to the funimation dub altering the script and Abridged. Funi's dub of it is extremely close to the original Japanese, with some going as far as putting it on Kai's level in terms of accuracy. Broly...

Re: GT and misogyny

If it's not in the original manga, its "canon" status is debatable. The original manga is the only product which events will always be taken into account in every version of the franchise, everything else is replaceable.

Re: I feel like the Super anime (or a continuation of it?) has been quietly canceled

I don't think that continuing Super is the biggest priority to Toei. And to be honest, I'm kinda glad it's not, because maybe they won't push out another rushed product again like with the first run of Super. Then again who am I kidding this Toei were talking about. Best case scenario is we get ano...

Re: "Dragon Ball Z: Kakarot" Official Discussion Thread

One way they can extend the story's length is by having us fight the androids as the z fighters before the 13 year time skip. I also agree that we'll fight Cell at the end as well. In terms of Super's events, I can see us fighting Dabura as a secret boss, with a teaser clip of Black showing up at th...

I really hope these don't go out of print or something. I have US and JP Dragon Boxes, so I really can't justify spending $40-$45 a piece on them, but if they go cheaper I'd definitely like to get them.
