More like an alternate full version.

Yes. My point is why are we doing this again? The movie is out.

Just stalling for time until Toriyama/Toyotaro iron out the finer details of the next arc.

Well... this came right out of left field. Hopefully, it won't be anything like the watered-down Raging Blast games. Very interested is seeing how it plays. Visually speaking, it looks good, at least.

The Future Trunks TV special is essential viewing if you're a fan of the series as far as I'm concerned. It's some of the best material to ever come out of the franchise. It's a phenomenal story that takes a barebone outline and fleshes it out into something meaningful. That TV special was Toei at t...

Gine is barely a character. She's a glorified prop in my opinion. Not to mention if you take the tidbits Toriyama provided about Gine there are quite a few unfortunate implications to unpack with her. What are those implications? That she embodied the "damsel in distress" trope even as a ...

My guess is Toyotaro is going to spend the rest of the year retelling the movie. Not surprised Goten and Trunks' side story was so brief. Hopefully, with the SuperHero retelling, they actually feel like fleshed-out characters, rather than glorified props. But, yeah, retelling the SuperHero movie has...

It's just a clusterfuck of a narrative that falls apart if you think about it for more than 30 seconds. That's every time travel story that's ever existed. Unless that's not what you're referring to. There are several time travel stories that utilize the concepts of time travel very well with no is...

If it has good pre-production and new and interesting narrative ideas that don't rely on insipidly regurgitating concepts from the manga for the umpteenth time, yes.

If not, no.

I've grown to hate the Cell arc over the years of re-reading and re-watching the series. It's just a clusterfuck of a narrative that falls apart if you think about it for more than 30 seconds. I think the King Piccolo arc is dogshit and one of the low points of the entire manga. Conversely, I think ...

According to Showtime Analytics, Dragon Ball Super: Super Hero has just recently grossed over $100 million thanks to its release in China. Specifically, the movie has made $100.2 million. However, the movie hasn't actually done very well in China. It did about a third of what DBS Broly did at about ...

Random and scattered thoughts of Chapter 88: - Trunks crushing the gun from one of the robbers putting it in a bag and telling the disarmed robber to dispose of his trash properly was a fun bit - Dino is the cutest animal I've ever seen in Dragon Ball... but I reckon there will be issues with handli...

Most likely an announcement of the home release for SuperHero.

I'll be shocked if it is anything related to a new anime or manga spin-off series. But who knows...

I wonder how long the web anime could last. A trend I've seen in recent years is that ONA's can last for dozens of episodes with the same kind of runtime as an anime. As for the TV anime, yeah, I don't know what the deal with that will be. Perhaps that will pick up from where the web anime ends or m...

I... really don't see the point of this considering the endgame for Goten and Trunk in Dragon Ball is them basically giving up on all forms of martial arts, or at the very least, not really showing much interest in martial arts, I can't see myself getting myself invested in anything they're doing kn...

In my opinion, no. It suffered too much from a constant change of creative direction, which in itself was due to the lack of pre-production for the series, which often lead to the characterization of the cast being so schizophrenic, as well as not having any kind consistent understanding of how stro...

Are you surprised how well it did? Not entirely. I did predict several months back that the movie could make in the region of 90 - 100 million when all was said and done, on the basis that Dragon Ball fans would eat this film up out of desperation for new animated material that is coming from Toriy...

Looks like DBS Super Hero's box office has officially tapped out at $92.9 million. It's the second highest-grossing Dragon Ball movie ever. Are you surprised how well it did? Not entirely. I did predict several months back that the movie could make in the region of 90 - 100 million when all was sai...
