No it didn't. Goku still hasn't mastered UI If Dragon Ball had ended after Freeza then it would have ended without Goku mastering Super Saiyan. Yet many fans think it should have ended after Freeza. I don't, I'm glad it continued after Freeza because I like what we got (Both Buu and Cell arcs despi...

I do find it funny all the Tiktok memes about Daima being for babies when I’m like…


“But you guys like Super. You have no place to judge”

Yeah I get the sense that this is meant to be GT redux: take the core concept of GT, and just now make everyone a kid. I will say this: The smartest thing that GT did was know that the only way to deal with the power creep was to lower the stakes, and it seems like Daima is doing the same. And much ...

Toei is merely a reflection of what the audience wants. That's it.

Many people want to see Goku do the thing and save the day, and that's what Toei is going to give then, goddammit.

Money, honestly. To do all the things you're saying would cost an absurd amount of cash to just to make an entirely new game in a new engine. That shit cost a lot of money and resources, and if enough people are still willing to pick up the DLC for this stuff then it's just simply cost effective.

Another fun chapter! Some of the fanboy type responses I see are really disappointing though. I get it - I'm beyond curious about what will happen once we get past the retelling of Super Hero - but I'm enjoying the ride and if they need the time to figure out how they want to wrap up Super as a who...

I'm a bit more positive on this arc. At the very least, it does try to tie itself to the beginning of the Superhero Arc by bringing into focus that the two Androids are deliberately modeled after Goten and Trunks is a fun one. I mean, I guess next month is going to be the last chapter for this arc. ...

...So. Dragon Ball. Personally the point where it hooked me was Goku's training with the Turtle Sage. Which, in the manga, is volume 3, like, 28 chapters in or so. I had previously tried to read the first two volumes but couldn't really get into them, then at one point during a family vacation I pi...

I feel like nineteen episodes is way too far into the series before it gets good. Hell, if we applied this to Dragon Ball (1986) or the comic, where is that benchmark? Tenshinhan vs Yamcha? Piccolo Daimaou? The Saiyan arc? That's so much time to devote to a series that you aren't already liking. Bu...

What helped me was that OP (manga) is only about 15 pages per chapter, so it wasn't that difficult for me to bang out a couple of chapters a day. To go back to the central point of this thread: The problem with the statement "It gets good after *insert specific chapter number or season here*&qu...

The problem with One Piece (anime) is that it is a relic of a time in which an anime being produced side by side with its manga was normal. As such, One Piece suffers from the same issues that plauged Dragon Ball Z and the other members of The Big 3--Bleach and Naruto. I started reading One PIece du...

The thing with Yuji's point is that part of me violently disagrees with their opinon, while a part of me also agrees with the criticism of OP post-time skip. I absolutely agree that the paneling makes the manga virtually unreadable. I thought it was merely a problem with using the Shonen Jump app on...

Well Super is just unabashed fan service so….

They didn't change one bit since the Cell arc. Even when doing shorts, they still feel like a redub rather than a funny parody. I remember bursting out laughing when watching their DBZ abridged up until Cell came into the picture, now I'm just cringing at how unfunny everything is. There's no gag c...

Dragon Ball Z: The Ultimate Review (ft. Team Four Star) - The Buu Saga (Pt. 1) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YJizHx9G3uQ Yeah I think Mark mentioned that he only asked for a couple minutes of material, and TFS gave him a whole bunch of shit. Considering the effort being done for what is merely a ...

The problem isn't necessarily that there's too many episodes, but it's more like the writers involved aren't experienced enough writing for an episodic series. Most shows these days are written as if they are 8 hour movies as opposed to 8 45 min episodes. Because of this a lot of these shows often s...

I liked the One Piece live action series, as did most people I know who are more well versed in the series than I am. Luffy's Gum Gum Pistol naturally looked a bit weird, but everything else was really well done. The set pieces were beautiful, actors were good and well cast, contained all the plot ...

The live-action One Piece adaptation was heavily edited, from 45 episodes/95 manga chapters into 8 episodes. It's currently debated if that was okay, but the performances got a solid pass. . So they improved the source material but not overindulging in unnecessary length. Awesome. Yeah....nah? As d...

I really dig Modern Toriyama’s more cartoonish art style, but by Kami this is horrendous. They look so flat. I’m pretty sure Dragon Ball would be dead without Super. Wishing for Super to end is wanting to pull the life support plug. This is exactly what I want. As far as I'm concerned, DBS is the e...

What matters is not whether or not DB contains genre staples of shounen, what matters is the quality. And a good tournament arc can offer some great storytelling while providing readers with a ton fun and interesting characters to bounce off of the main characters. I don't think Super does particula...
