Re: I think Toriyama's time is over with the Dragonball series

Doesn't anyone think Toei or Toyotaro should make a Xenoverse or Heroes series? Its basically a next-gen story.

Re: What I think Super lacks in comparaison to Z

I never said there was no characterization. Just general lack of coherency and an actual story that connects to anything, really made it uninteresting to me. I don't like how isolated all these scenarios are or how they just appear out of thin air and have nothing relating to prior ones. There ther...

Re: Official "DB Super 2018 Movie" Discussion Thread

It shouldn't be that simple. Z never did that. Though I'm someone that actually misses training for new forms and dislike the "forms on demand" that Super does. Goku, Trunks and Goten didn't train for SSJ1, Gohan didn't train for SSJ2 and Gotenks didn't train for SSJ3. How was Z any diffe...

Re: I think Toriyama's time is over with the Dragonball series

I might get raged at for this but I honestly think Toriyama has become a lot like the George Lucas of Dragon Ball... I think he needs to leave it in more capable hands and the notion that Toriyama's involvement adds more value to the product needs to be dropped by certain parts of this fandom. The ...

Re: What I think Super lacks in comparaison to Z

Honestly excluding the aging and lack of natural changes like you mentioned, I think the battle damage (or lack there of) bothers me the most. Look at Goku and Vegeta at the end of their fight in the Saiyan Saga. They were FUCKED UP. Now look a Goku and Vegeta in ep127 of Super. It looks like they'...

Re: Official "DB Super 2018 Movie" Discussion Thread

Its why I prefer them being closer together in the manga or around the same growth pace. I had hoped with Super that the gap would finally be closed so that they can work together now, but nope. They decided to retread the same issue by forcing Goku upward anyway. If this is a movie about Saiyan ro...

Re: i think Akira's time is over with the Dragonball series

The entire point is that those moments didn't involve rage boosts BECAUSE the original series isn't stupid enough to give characters rage boosts. You said those those characters got rage boost in those scenes and still lost. So I the original series WAS stupid enough to give them rage boost after a...

Re: Official "DB Super 2018 Movie" Discussion Thread

Will Vegeta even be that relevant at all considering he is MUCH weaker than Goku at this point? Is he? I dunno about that. He had that extra time in the Hyperbolic Time chamber and came out strong enough to beat back Rosé Black. Seemed like he was technically stronger than Goku at that point. Goku ...

For the record, I want you to know that I'm reporting all of your posts. I don't have time to deal with children. As for what you're saying, I advise you to read my post again because you clearly ignored what I was saying. Rage boosts in the original series manifest themselves through new transform...

Re: What I think Super lacks in comparaison to Z

A sense of progression. After every arc in Z we got major or minor changes in character designs, that made us understand that time has passed. Even Goku's gi changed slightly througout the series ( symbol, boots etc..). There's even very minor changes which go unnoticed like kid Gohan's boots in th...

Re: i think Akira's time is over with the Dragonball series

Vegeta and Piccolo only started to get character development after they stopped being the main antagonist, same with Fat Buu and the present android twins (notice a pattern?) No, Fat Boo and the present androids (them especially) were presented as morally ambiguous from the start. Fat Boo stopped b...

Re: Dragon Ball Super's power levels are much lower than GT

Just a note. SSG Goku wasn’t doing that alone. The shockwaves were being generated when Goku and Beerus hit each other head on with great speed and power. And it couldn’t be done with two clashes. It’s unknown how much Kefla is stronger than that version of Goku. Beerus was using the some amount of...

Re: Your thoughts on the Tournament of Power compared to the Dragon World's other arcs

As someone mentioned before, it feels too much like American cartoons. Too episodic, with a "villain of the week" vibe to it, where most of the conflicts were resolved within 1-2 episodes to really feel any weight or seriousness to them, especially when you knew the end game was Goku vs J...
