Re: Something occured to me when reading journey to the west *future trunks arc spoilers*
I'm fairly sure that the writing team drew upon Monkey for quite a bit of Super. I bet Jiren was also originally supposed to be a parody of the Buddha before the sudden end of the series forced them to wrap things up more quickly than expected. Do you think they changed his planned personality/orig...

Re: Dragon Ball Recut [COMPLETE], Dragon Ball Z Kai Recut [WORK IN PROGRESS], Dragon Ball Z Recut [WORK IN PROGRESS]
Yeah for the most part I'll probably never watch the original again either, and I suspect that goes for Z and Kai when DBZ Recut is finished. In my last viewing I switched to the original Piccolo arc after Tambourine putting down Goku and until Goku's second battle with Daimao (it was either at the ...

Re: Should elements of FighterZ's story mode show up in animated canon?
Like other's have said, the backstory of #16 and #21 being Gero's son and wife would have added much depth to the cell arc. Honestly in retrospect #21 could have replaced #19, who had no significance at all and was just a partner for #20. It would have much cooler to find out that Gero had mechanise...

Re: Does the sexualization of Bulma at the start of the series bother anyone?
If all of it was funny and not just awkward it'd be okay. I don't like introducing someone to Dragon Ball and having to say "don't worry, it isn't like this after the first few episodes" as they sit there awkwardly at all the forced sexualisation.

Should the retellings have just chopped the movies into episodes?
If Toei wanted to get viewers up to speed off the back of Kai, and fill up some time for the writers working on newer content, would you have preferred they base the retellings on just cutting the extended cuts of BoF and RoF into episode-length segments? I'm not suggesting this be done entirely laz...

Re: Dragon Ball Movie 20 - Animation Hub
Just the way Goku looks in the short teaser makes me super excited for these character designs. It just looks so incredibly Dragon Ball, more so than anything we've had in years. I wish that's how Super had looked.

Has the number of Kais per universe been retconned?
Back in Z, the Dragon World had four galaxies each with its own Kai, corresponding to the four cardinal directions. We've now seen that a universe contains a very large number of galaxies, much more like the one we live in, so does each universe now have countless Kais, one per galaxy, rendering tit...

Re: Should Kai Have Been Reanimated?
I like the way OG Kai looks, they cleaned up the animation and colours nicely. The main thing I wish they'd done is cover the entire series, ideally the whole manga from start to finish but AT LEAST all of Z, because The Final Chapters is awful and there still isn't a good way to watch the Buu arc. ...

"Why did they retcon the Pilaf gang into children!? They just wrecked the entire continuity for no reason!"
I still can't believe they didn't include the explanation from the movie in the Super version.

Re: Grand Priest is stronger than Zeno
The Angels do seem to be an order of beings potentially higher than Zeno. When the Gods bow to Zeno or act subservient to him, the Angels stay standing and remain calm. Zeno may just be something of a figurehead put in place by the angels, or at least they're the ones really running the show. I coul...

Re: Do you like the Super Saiyan Blue form?
Literally only for the SSB+Kaioken, which looks great and gave us an epic scene in episode 39. Other than that it did nothing that couldn't have been done with SSG. Replace every instance of it with SSG and nothing really changes story-wise, except SSG with Kaioken wouldn't look good.

Re: Garlic Jr saga pros and cons
I like the saga, I've gotta be honest. It's great for providing breathing room between Freeza and Freeza, giving focus to some other characters, and the more mystical tone of earlier DB. There are really two problems with it for me: 1) It does drag in the middle. It needed to be a couple of episode...

Man, the white hair would look so much better with the RoF outfit. It would really give Goku an old "grand master" vibe to him.

I absolutely adore DBZA and eagerly await the season 3 finale. If TFS feel like they don't have time or energy to do the Buu saga, then I'm grateful for everything they've done really. They've mentioned before that they'd like to go back and improve their work on Season 1, which understandably wasn'...

Re: How would you have done transformations differently in Super?
In terms of the U6 Saiyans, keep Cabba as he is with not knowing what Super Saiyan is in the U6 arc, and let him achieve Super Saiyan in the fight against Vegeta, but make it more intense and more of an achievement. Give Caulifla SSJ2 before we even meet her, that would really amp up the prodigy/ge...

Hey, great work again on these. Could I make one request? Any chance on the episode that Goku goes Super Saiyan for the first time you could leave the episode as is with the Yamamoto score but edit in Super Dragon Soul?

Re: What I think Super lacks in comparaison to Z
I agree fully. DB was always a world in which we could feel time progressing. We were always moving into new stages in these characters lives. Super has killed that. Goku and Vegeta should absolutely have kept their RoF outfits, and probably even got new ones again going to the US arc, perhaps EoZ c...
