Re: Does anyone else feel that much of the DB fandom enforces low standards?

I think Toei/Toyotaro/Toriyama/whoever wants to keep things as safe and familiar as possible, which is why none of the child characters are allowed to age. It’s the same thing with Marron, who still looks like a toddler, even though she should be older than Goten and Trunks were during the Boo saga...

Possibility of "Llec", "Appan", etc (reincarnated villains)

In the Universe Survival arc, Enma says that Freeza is so vile a villain that he will likely never repent for his crimes, and therefore remain in Earth's Hell for eternity. In Hell, evil souls are steadily cleansed until they can be reincarnated in the mortal realm. The reincarnation of Pure/Kid Buu...

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

I’d argue that Goku DID win against Hit. Yes not directly but it was Goku jumping out that made Hit surrender in the end. It was Goku’s character that won the tournament for U7 I know a lot of people write off the U6 arc but to me it had the most satisfying conclusion of the 3 Super arcs. Anyways I...

Re: Kakarot vs Kakarotto - The Vegerot/Vegetto(ito) effect

Well, in the anime, the characters seem to pronounce it with a very soft 'R' that sounds more like an 'L' anyway. I understand that keeping one 'R' but randomly throwing in an 'L' at the end is kind of silly, but I understand Nitro's point that a native English speaker stressing a hard 'R' sound cou...

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

Does anyone think that Moro was designed as a goat based on the pun? Aside from the goat that is associated with satanic imagery thus a reason to base a villain off of it, I can't think of any other reason why Moro would be a goat other than a pun of some kind like in DB tradition. I think his name...

Re: What team-ups would you like to see?

My throat and a bottle of neat Ouzo. Uh, I mean... although it's highly unlikely in any other context, I loved the glimpse of Android 17 and Freeza's dynamic towards the end of the Tournament of Power. They're such an unlikely duo but they worked amazingly well together. I think part of it is that ...

Re: CREATIVE WRITING EXERCISE: Create your own "Tournament of Power recruitment arc" with IPs of your choosing

I'd do one for Doctor Who, but the way that setting works it's more likely that the Doctor would assemble a team that was never expected to actually fight, but instead assist him in his plan of tricking the two Zenos into erasing each other, thus calling off the tournament altogether. Well if I had...

Raise your hand if you have the feeling Moro is gonna have some bs magic trick/plot boost to somehow not get decimated by MUI Goku? Because I have the feeling that is going to happen....

Re: Parallel Freeza, parallel Goku... who's next?

None of the Universe 6 characters are direct one-to-one alternate timeline versions of Universe 7 characters or anything like that, however. They're all clearly distinct characters, but they act as traditional foils and reflections to the Universe 7 characters in different ways: - Frost is what Fre...

Re: Does anyone else feel that much of the DB fandom enforces low standards?

Dragon Ball discussion, please. Sure. I think Caulifla and Goku's interactions as a brief master-student thing were too precious just to keep in the ToP, I'd be terribly disappointed if that's all we got from them as a pair. Some totally platonic relationships await. Feel free to set me straight if...

Really, rewatch the Prequels, there's child killing in the classic fade to black after he puts the dick out scene and the first movie barely touched the fact that he was a slave, it still is a child movie even with those themes because he just treated very lightly, I watched as a kid and only the p...

Re: Parallel Freeza, parallel Goku... who's next?

My first assumption seeing the title was that you were going to be talking about Frost and Caulifla , not Goku Black. She's definitely the alternate universe Goku if ever there was one. "Parallel Namekians, Vegeta and Gohan" we've arguably already got in the form of Saonel, Pirina, Cabba a...

Re: CREATIVE WRITING EXERCISE: Create your own "Tournament of Power recruitment arc" with IPs of your choosing

So we can make more than one universe per person? Of course, go nuts. I'd like to try out a totally non-combat-ready universe, like from a sitcom or crime drama, but that'll be hard. I was also thinking of doing one based on a series of student short films my friends and I made for uni, we jokingly...

Re: Official On-Going Dragon Ball Super Movie Thread: "Broly"

From what I understand, the decision to adapt BoG and RF for the anime was done in order to buy time for Toriyama to come up with new stories. Considering that they seem to be taking their time with bringing back the anime (assuming they’re going to do that), I see no reason why they’d need to reso...

Re: My Dragon Ball Super rewrite

The Saiyan kids aren't necessary for this arc. They're in plenty of others and don't necessarily need to be fighters in general. With Roushi the ToP would be a last hurrah for him and Tenshinhan just doesn't have a story to tell at all. I struggled so hard trying to write his character arc in my ve...
