Re: Will GT Really Become "Lost" This Time?

I think it is best to think of GT as one of the 1-13 movies: they have fun moments, original villains that are interesting, but spending too much time trying to square away it with all the other canon is futile. I don't think they have to replace it or make any announcement, they are just on the sam...

Re: Official Announcement Thread & Discussion

I'd wager this could be something similar - the guys may not have done any robberies or the like before Boo blew up the Earth, thus they were able to be wished back. Pretty quickly afterward though, their nature and/or other stimuli could have them resorting to robbery. I sort of agree with this: t...

Where are you reading this? In any case, I'm psyched of a Kuririn B plot.

Re: Was Chi-Chi really a worthless character in the end?

I like Chichi -- I think she was well utilized in DB (even if a lot of fans ignore DB, I like it a lot). I don't think Goku could have married Bulma -- their personalities would not mesh *at all*, Chichi is the only woman it made sense for Goku to marry, with her childhood ties and liking fighting. ...

Re: Poll: What's worse, EoB or DB Minus?

EoB -- it doesn't make any sense whatsoever. I actually like DB Minus. The only problem I have with it is Goku being like 3 years old.

So we are still getting Vegeta dancing for Beerus, it seems? Can't really read much of the text in the corner.

To leave any kind of reason to buy/watch movie DVDs/Blu-Rays lol? I already know I'm skipping on everything ROF cause there's little point with Super covering it soon and almost definitely in broader scope. I get why Toriyama/Toei wanted to retell and include both in Super arc but it does devalue t...

Re: "Dragon Ball Super" Animation Staff Discussion

There's no realistic way to make those fights (aside from SSJG Goku vs Beerus) last that long unless you completely nerf Beerus, which is extremely unlikely, or throw side stories in there as well. I mean Vegeta barely lasted a minute against Beerus. Don't see how you could drag out a fight between...

Huh, so they are moving it from Capsule Corp to a cruise ship, sounds interesting, I hope the games have it as a stage, lol. I'm interested to see how they are changing things, are they going to move most of the Pilaf shenanigans to before Beerus shows up? I really hope the BoG arc isn't dragged ou...

Re: "Dragon Ball Super" Animation Staff Discussion

What are the odds Episode 5 will reuse footage from the 2013 film, and that's why there's no immediate staff in place? :P Even if 100% of the fight footage was reused (highly unlikely! I don't think that battle is 20 minutes in the movie), there would still likely be a B-plot that would need footag...

Re: A Japanese criminal claims that he wanted to become Goha

In Japan, on the the first day of a trial for bodily harm, it turned out that the defendant, arrested for cutting at his neighbor with a knife while being high on drugs, claimed that he wanted to make a name for himself by becoming Son Gohan from the Dragon Ball series. He also said that he had bee...

I dunno why he calls it that, tbh. Even in the Japanese poster it's clearly calls it Battle of Gods in perfect English text. It was never like Fukkatsu No F, where it was written in Japanese. It was only ever called "Kami To Kami" in promotional material. I seriously dunno why he's callin...

That's exactly what is going on. I doubt the rematch will occur during Blooma's birthday again, though. Then again, maybe Episode #2 will reveal that Blooma has a birthday coming up? Eh, we'll see. Maybe it will happen at the resort vacation? Bulma's birthday is in August, and if it is 6 months aft...

Re: Official On-Going DBZ 2015 Movie Thread: "Resurrection '

The fact that I saw it with the Mexican dub didn't help. I'm not put off by the accent or the voices (save for Beerus's one, which I don't like at all) but I found the wording of many of the dialogues pretty awkward, with at least one instance in which I thought "Come on, that's not even gramm...

Re: Your Kanzenshuu (prev. "Daizenshuu EX") Introduction

Hi! Posting an intro, since it seems like a reasonable thing to do. I first started watching DB/DBZ around 1998 when it was being broadcast in Peru. I loved it -- eventually around the end of the Namek Saga there was a lull in Syndication before the got new episodes so I went on this newfangled thin...

Re: Is the English dub the most watched version of DB worldw

I think I would go with the Latin american dub. Dragon Ball seemed to me way more popular there than it ever was in the US, and the population of Latin America minus Brazil is still larger than the US. I also knew people back in the day in the US watching the Latin American dub on univision before t...
