Am I an idiot or is there no actual controversy here?

We keep asking "is Grade 4 Goku stronger than Grade 3 Trunks" when we should be asking "is Grade 4 Goku stronger than Grade 3 Goku". Saiyan transformations are not equal across different saiyans.

I want to be the support character who actually gets a well-animated fight.

Let me dream.

It wouldn't have been feasible since "The Plot B" particularly in Dragon Ball is used as complementary to the Plot A. (Comedic relief, minor characters). Having a big secondary character having his own story in parallel requires his own context, and that would steal time and focus from th...

Too many people erroneously look at a "passing the torch moment" as "Goku is no longer a primary character". Gohan could've easily taken over as protector of the Earth while Goku and Vegeta went on to solve issues in either the afterlife or other universes, it's perfectly feasibl...

I mean I figure it's economics more than anything? High-quality animation teams command a high price and I don't know what the margins of producing anime are but I'll bet it's pretty slim.

Depends on if he feels a TiNgLe iN HiS bAcK

Because he's Goku's son lol

I'd just like to point out that there are very, very, very few instances of any characters being written well in DB lol Piccolo's face turn, Gohan's transformation, and Vegeta's sacrifice are pretty much the only notable elements of character development in a series spanning over three decades. Tori...

Maybe only in the sense that we have very little sequel material that is apparently worth exploring, which is just the state of the DB franchise.

I mean, if you just copy-pasted Vegeta into Goku's place, no that definitely would not have rescued the movie for me. However, if you actually built a narrative around Vegeta's hatred for Freeza and let him experience some character depth/development on the way to a cathartic and yet somehow hollow ...

I think I actually would've liked Freeza even better. Although I think the goofy played-for-laughs moments with Freeza later on in the franchise (i WiSh I wAs fIvE iNchEs TaLLeR) fit with a male Freeza better.

What's the closest analog, The Matrix? That's not doing it for me with Dragon Ball. And the absolute last thing I want to see is Dragon Ball Marvel-ized.

Wrestling is a meme business now lol

There is no way you can translate Dragon Ball as we love/appreciate it to live action, or at least the modern product. You could make something under the Dragon Ball brand that works in the context of something else, e.g. a wuxia film, but the reality is that the humor is very rooted in the medium, ...

It's pretty freakin' hard to ignore legendary super saiyan Broly when he's on-model as fuck

I mean, I like adventure done well and I like action done well. Which is why I hate GT lol

I don't call SS2 "super saiyan ascended fifth grade", I'm not calling SSB "super saiyan god super saiyan" and that's pretty much that.

This scene is Krillin, without question: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XASNM1XEQPs

There are so many "I'm still alive" jokes here

Taking one of the most distinguished combatants in the entire series and turning him into an errand boy whose sole purpose is to make this face :O is definitely original, because you have to be peerlessly checked out to write that lol
