Re: "Dragon Ball FighterZ" Official Discussion Thread

Sorry to double-post, but I'm past the edit post time limit. Anyway, my experiment with the router was a success; I get way less drops while closer to it. I really do wish there was the option to practice against the computer in the demo outside of the training mode. Characters are pre-selected in ...

Re: "Dragon Ball FighterZ" Official Discussion Thread

Anyone else playing the Switch beta? Just curious. So far I'm doing ok. The load screens feel a little long at times, and I wish there was a vs computer mode outside of practice, and maybe a way to switch announcers (I think they're planning to make that dlc?), but I'm enjoying learning it so far. ...

Re: When will FUNimation re-release dbz again?

Well it's the 35th Anniversary for Dragon Ball in Japan next year, right? I'm thinking during the 40th Anniversary. Sadly I'm not expecting any kind of redub (though a total redub from the ground up with a number of recastings would be amazing and actually get me to purchase that release), just wha...

Re: Final Bout and the U.S Broadcast

It didn't bother me personally, since Funimation tripped over themselves to spoil what was happening in Dragon Ball Z (various Super Saiyan forms, Vegeta and Piccolo joining the good guys permanently, Trunks, mecha Freeza, the Android saga costumes) from the very beginning with Rock the Dragon.

Re: "Dragon Ball FighterZ" Official Discussion Thread

Fanart and promos mean jack, mate. You won't have movies that have had character designs done by Toriyama on a number of occasions (including Coola), as well as checking over the plot and script, but you consider fanart a reference? "Mean jack", matey, arrr? Yes, fan art can be used as a ...

Re: "Dragon Ball FighterZ" Official Discussion Thread

Well, you've been wrong about everything concerning FighterZ from sales to gameplay so far, so.. :roll: You shouldn't be so obsessed with me. Also I said it wouldn't sell as well as the Xenoverse games and so far it hasn't. Nor likely will it. ...it's selling at a faster rate than either game, and ...

Re: Dragon Ball FighterZ (Switch) Open Beta will be on the 10th!

I'm just disappointed none of the website staff seem to think its worth reporting on anything to do with Fighterz on the Switch. ? http://www.kanzenshuu.com/2018/06/12/dragon-ball-fighterz-announced-nintendo-switch-e3-2018/ http://www.kanzenshuu.com/2018/06/21/dragon-ball-fighterz-dated-september-2...

Re: "Dragon Ball FighterZ" Official Discussion Thread

I ignore all the old movies, excepting a few clips. Can I ask why? Seems kind pointless to ignore the when they're not exactly long and a lot of the characters make a ton of video game appearances. Just not interested in DB stories not made or guided by Toriyama. Haven't seen GT, either. I think if...

Interesting about 1 vs 1! Will they implement that to the ps4 version? https://twitter.com/BandaiNamcoUS/status/1021397343088721920 Says exclusive feature, so probably not.

Re: Dragon Ball FighterZ (Switch) Open Beta will be on the 10th!

It's not a straight port. It has some extra modes, including a 1 vs 1, 2vs 2 and six-player multiplayer option. Why would it matter if it was "just" a port, though? Interesting about 1 vs 1! Will they implement that to the ps4 version? https://twitter.com/BandaiNamcoUS/status/102139734308...

I'll have to reread that portion, but I don't know even from what you said we can infer Kami taught him those techniques. Mr. Popo learned from Kami. I have never seen Popo even hinted at using those specific "open your hand and an invisible blast hits your opponent like telekinesis" tech...

You can now download the Fighterz Beta for Nintendo Switch from the eshop which starts on the 9th or 10th of this month for a few days. 23 characters will be available.

I'm looking forward to it.

He doesn't actually train with Kami. He trained with Mr. Popo, but I'm splitting hairs... Yes he does train with Kami. Check out volume 14 of the manga.if you need proof. It'd mentioned both before and after the time skip for the 23rd Tenkaichi Budokai. I believe it's specifically stated that the r...

Re: Which Goku Is A more likable Character: Funimation Goku Or Original Japanese Goku:

It has nothing to do with sincerity or lack thereof. In the dub Goku tells Kuririn to show mercy to Vegeta, yet he thinks nothing of killing nameless RRA goons. It's innevitable contradictions like that which make FUNi Goku far less interesting. Instead of being a deliberate choice by the author to...

Re: Dragon Ball on Australia and New Zealand

You spoiled brats with your pay TV. ;) I started watching Dragon Ball when the first episode of the Saban dub aired during the Summer holidays in 2000. I was 13 and I was instantly smitten with this strange anime that aired at 8am on Cheez TV. Much like Evangelion the year before, it was unlike anyt...

Really interesting to see how a lot of the board members here view women and homosexuals. The core of the matter is that Rocketman is right, and if you're arguing against him you might have some issues.

Re: Worst Dragonball Toy.

I have the Majin Buu playset from Jakks Pacific and it's an amazing piece. It comes with 4 micro figures (less than 1 inch tall, if I remember) of Goku, Vegeta, Buu and Vegetto as well as a ton of accessories and bits of Buu's innards. I think that hardly qualifies as the worst DragonBall toy... I ...
