Re: What does the Japanese fandom think of the West’s version of Dragon Ball?
As most japanese score in dbgt & dbs were pretty jarring/weird imo due to wrong placing & unexciting score in general...even the battle theme is so-so. Guess its due to change in composer to Akihito Tokunaga in dbgt Can't speak to Super, but definitely agree for GT. I think Tokunaga's score...

Re: What does the Japanese fandom think of the West’s version of Dragon Ball?
This requires asking Japanese fans, either on this forum or elsewhere. But I hope they think well of the dub. I'm Japanese fan of the show. I always feel Jap version vastly outclasses western/Funimation its hilarious to even draw a comparison. Og DB, DBZ dub in particular in hilarious. While there ...

Re: What made you laugh in Dragon Ball
Just curious what episode or chapter made you laugh in Dragon Ball? I think one of the episode I found funny was Goku and Piccolo driving, turning a driving episode into a competition. I thought when u asked DragonBall, u werw referrin to original DB. But then u mentioned ur fav is Goku & Picco...

Re: So this new movie will be Gohan focused?
https://youtu.be/ke_W-uPla1Y Judging from the trailer it appears that Piccolo will permanently die in this movie and get a send off with Gohan paying homage to him via wearing his cape in the final battle. The scope of the movie would be less world/universal threat and more of a battle between two ...

Re: Thanks for everything, Mr. Yanami.
Loved his voice as the narrator, Kaio (plus others like King Furry and Dr. Briefs) and even though he was ultimately forced to retire from voice acting partway into Super for health reasons he still lived a long and accomplished life. RIP Mr. Yanami, you will always be known as the voice of Dragon ...

Re: Who's your favorite enemy from the Red Ribbon saga?
Hi guys. This is my first post here on the forum. I would like to start with a very laid-back thread. What's your favorite enemy from the Red Ribbon saga? Honestly, that's probably the most consistent arc of Dragon Ball when it comes to antagonists (quantity + quality). I would say that the best tw...

Re: Does Roshi legally own the land his island is on? Does he pay rent?
I always wondered if Roshi legally owned the land his island is on, or just randomly built a house there on his own. Did he officially purchase the land from whatever province its located in? Does he pay rent/mortgage for the house? In real life you can't just claim an island, let's say off the bah...

Re: Anyone else find the RRA arc hard to rewatch?
No I adore that arc. It's my favorite portion of DragonBall along with the 22nd tournament. It's the most varied arc in terms of villains, it keeps the series namesake as a major focus, it does the most for world building, it sets up the formula with Tao Pai Pai, it finds ways to incorporate most o...

Even if it does, the execution is what matters Back in DB days, it seemed like a big feat for child to turn into this near omnipotent fighter. It's successors ...

Re: Piccolo Should Have Been A Child in the Saiyan Arc
Everythin's cool, but how d'ya propose child Piccolo face off against Raditz, Nappa & Vegeta
At least as adult he provided some hope to good guys.
As child, he'd face same fate as Gohan in Saiyan Arc
Ofc the family, niisan dynamics would be cool & all, but it's war we're talking abt

Re: Anyone else find the RRA arc hard to rewatch?
I'm currently rewatching it and have just started the stuff with Colonel Silver, and it feels like a drag, especially knowing how long the RRA arc goes on for. Muscle Tower has some decent moments, but it doesn't really pick up until Tao shows up, which is ages away. I enjoyed it when I was watchin...

The Dragon Ball world by no means perfect: There’s wealth inequality, rapists, overall disgusting people, but there’s also some good. This is where Trunks and such would come in. I want to talk about Zamasu t...

Gohan's character despite written in the 90's seems oddly way ahead of his time. In a battle crazy shonen series like this where Goku and Vegeta crave non-stop fighting instead of peace to push themselves stronger, Gohan stepped away from that life to quietly raise a family with his wife and daught...
