Re: "Dragon Ball Super (Manga)" Official Discussion Thread

I'm sorry but, one or two instances of strategy making a nice supplement to raw strength doesn't really validate the idea that strategy was important during the ToP. At that point you might as well argue that strategy and teamwork were important in the fight against Freeza back on Namek because PIc...

Re: "Dragon Ball Z: Kakarot" Official Discussion Thread

I saw screenshots of them from a friend, but I'll see if I can find them in the game, in the Z-Encyclopedia it has (Your average in-game codex that explains, characters, story, character relations and the like). If I'm remembering correctly, S-Cells is being used to explain Trunks transforming into...

Re: "(Super) Dragon Ball Heroes" Official Discussion Thread

Final batch of translations for the SDBH 9th anniv. flowcharts here . Translations for all of the flowcharts here . I find it absolutely hilarious that Golden Cooler chased Fuu yet it was Fuu who still ended up trolling him by guiding him to the Big Gete Star & becoming his test subject yet agai...

Re: "Dragon Ball Super (Manga)" Official Discussion Thread

They were still locked in combat up until the plot realized it needed to wrap itself up (some 400 episodes in fact.) Their lives were still dictated by literal prophecy as evidenced by the fact that besides that one detail they otherwise adhered completely to their predestined routes. And Naruto is...

Re: "(Super) Dragon Ball Heroes" Official Discussion Thread

Pan (Xeno or otherwise) does still not have any kind of Super Saiyan, despite several other, more "minor" saiyans being given transformations (such as SS3 Nappa and Raditz). At this point I'm wondering if it's on purpose. SS3 Raditz & Nappa were huge deals. That's why they were the 6t...

Re: "Dragon Ball Super (Manga)" Official Discussion Thread

There is a difference between the stated morals/themes of a franchise and those actually depicted by the story. For example, according to all the speeches in Naruto the moral of the story is being more than what fate wanted you to be. The actual story of Naruto is about how your birth and family de...

Re: "(Super) Dragon Ball Heroes" Official Discussion Thread

Isn't GT Vegeta able to use SSJ4 at his will in heroes? This is one example: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pFFw6bVn090 Then that wouldn't be the same Toei anime GT Vegeta anymore. Perfect Files 2 states Vegeta can't transform into SS4 at will without Blutz waves. That would automatically be a DBH...

Why isn't this thread stickied but then three threads by an Ajay are even though there's been no interest in them for many months? This is something I've been wondering myself.

Re: "(Super) Dragon Ball Heroes" Official Discussion Thread

It's clear that the Xeno characters are not the exact same as the GT anime incarnations, from visual to character references to transformation capabilities (like XVegeta being able to use SS4 at will). From game port to port. And as S3 Hendrix mentions, prior to SDBH1-8 there have been various takes...

Re: "Dragon Ball Z: Kakarot" Official Discussion Thread

Any updates on those DB encyclopedia entries? I'm not sure if you're being influenced by being here on this Dragon Ball fan forum but GT is widely considered to be utter garbage compared to the other series. It is complete and utter trash. Sure they add other characters because it's more content but...

Re: "(Super) Dragon Ball Heroes" Official Discussion Thread

XBardock becomes included in the Time Patrol circle in the DDR Current Story (2) flowchart in the SDBH 9th anniv guidebook. Tho I don't really care if he is part of it or not, I was just speaking generally about the Xeno characters. The Xeno characters can be whatever the SDBH team want them to be. ...

I will try to find the English versions of these images.

And actually, the Portuguese versions I found elsewhere, are not mine
They should be very straightforward for someone who actually plays to share. I am actually surprised I am having trouble finding it online.

Re: "Dragon Ball Z: Kakarot" Official Discussion Thread

Want to ask a question to all Kakarot players. So we've seen that DBZ: Kakarot contains a lot of new never-before-seen info, but here's a more interesting question: Has any Toriyama interview exclusive info actually BEEN confirmed in the game? Like how SS2-3 are just extensions of SS1, the existenc...

To wrap it up, I'm open to the interpretation that the Time Patrollers don't have to be restrained to one single 'known' timeline, like XBardock. Because of the contradictions & restrictions to their personas as I've already stated.

Pretty much the same meaning in french, except for the name.

It's 100% Bikini. The French version fucked it up for some reason.

Re: "Dragon Ball Z: Kakarot" Official Discussion Thread

Sacrée, in this context, means something like "That's so like him/her." or "You don't change him/her". Then two sentences later, he calls the same person Bikini. I'm curious to see what is said in the english version. No name, just an exasperated remark. https://twitter.com/HECT...

Re: "Dragon Ball Z: Kakarot" Official Discussion Thread

To add to Bulma's mom's name case, this NA version of this game has a guide that explicitly refers to her as Bikini. So despite both being there, the game does indeed confirm that her name is Bikini, not Panchy for whatever reason they put that extra name in there.

Hence, a miss on the list.

We don't have a confirmation from Toriyama himself, but CyberConnect 2 mentioned they wanted to add more than just doing Z again so they asked a shit ton of question about stuffs we never knew. Bulma's mother's name, how the Ginyu Force came to be ... Unfortunately, we don't know the exact content ...

Re: "Dragon Ball Z: Kakarot" Official Discussion Thread

Been discussing this on Twitter ( thread here ), I've been presented 3 claims so far & only one is completely valid - the 16 modeled after Gero's son one. The first is the one related to a Saiyan's tail not growing back: Toriyama says if a person is as strong as 'Goku or Vegeta,' yet the game sa...
