Re: Super anime vs Super manga

The Anime has higher highs, but way lower lows I agree with this. There's always something faintly ridiculous about when people act all offended like "how dare they ask the fans to consume this Dragon Ball story and not the one I imagined in my head!!!", but there are parts of the anime t...

Re: What is the lamest thing to come out of modern DBZ?

I don't like this kind of thread, it feels calculated just to create arguments and hurt feelings. However, I'm procrastinating. So, for me it's definitely the Goku Black/Zamasu stuff. It feels like a real low point for the entire series, like the worst kind of fan fiction or committee/marketing-driv...

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

Black Freeza is still out there and DB Daima seems to be its own thing, so I doubt the DBS manga will end or even go hiatus. I'm not sure I understand what Freeza's new form has to do with the end of the Super brand. Dragon Ball has never been the type of story where every tiny detail is explained,...

Welcome to the forum and I don't want to derail the topic but, Super Hero wasn't actually a flop - it's been widely embraced and even beloved by fans around the world!

Re: Dragon Ball Daima (2024)

Wow, looks great. The whole introduction sets this up as the next major DB animation and the rest really delivers. The premise didn't catch my interest but now that I've seen what they're setting up here, I'm definitely paying attention. I don't expect we can predict exactly what this is going to be...

Re: How do you rank the Super arcs and movies?

7) RoF By far the worst thing that DB has produced, second only to DB MinuSuperman. It's incredible to me that the fandom has finally reached a consensus in regards of what's the lowest point of the franchise. I rate this slightly I know this is a rhetorical gimmick and you don't mean it literally ...

Re: Dragon Ball Super: Manga Chapter 97 - Official Discussion Thread

I like Super Hero, particularly the movie, but I certainly wouldn't go as far to say that it's in the spirit of the classics. It's not. Even the best of Super is still a pale comparison of the franchise at its best. More importantly, I don't care for the idea that people should be grateful that we'...

Re: How would you like GT to be handled going forward?

When DBS started I saw it as the ultimate refutation of GT - we know Toriyama wasn't fond of how GT turned out, and Super was it chance to try again. So I guess while GT was always a "non-canon" side story, I feel like its been ever further marginalized and should probably be allowed to gr...

Re: Dragon Ball Super: Manga Chapter 97 - Official Discussion Thread

Another fun chapter! Some of the fanboy type responses I see are really disappointing though. I get it - I'm beyond curious about what will happen once we get past the retelling of Super Hero - but I'm enjoying the ride and if they need the time to figure out how they want to wrap up Super as a whol...

Re: How do you rank the Super arcs and movies?

1. Battle of Gods: A highlight of the entire series. it introduces the wonderful Whis and Beerus and its hilarious. The original series ending was brilliant but this would also have been a fine point to end on. 2. Broly: Probably the visual highlight of DBS. Great action, cool music, somehow managed...

Re: What are the best episode and scenes in DBS

The Arale episode is probably the single greatest episode and its, ironically, filler! DBS is so twisted!

There are lots of examples of good animation although its usually tainted by frustrating writing.

The "smart Buu" scene was hilarious and wonderfully animated.

Re: Dragon Ball Super: Manga Chapter 96 - Official Discussion Thread

Yeah, I enjoyed this chapter too. I haven't seen the movie since it came out in theaters, so I don't really mind experiencing it again and, like others have said, if Toyo is using this time to hone his skill and focus on planning the next arc, that sounds great. I mean, hell, I don't need new DBS ev...

Re: Anyone here wish they did a spin off series on U6

I would not be interested in a U6 spinoff, I think the TOP has already explored these characters to the point that its clear there's just... not much there. They seem trope-based and overly familiar.

In general, I think fans could stand to spend a lot less time thinking about the financial aspect of DBS. It's not interesting, none of us are qualified to do so, and tbh who even cares?

Re: DBS Anime Future

I'm inclined to think that the Dragon Ball Super anime is finished for good. Since the manga is getting very close to the time Goku leaves with Uub. When it went off the air, people said it was inevitable that it would come back soon. They told me this, with great confidence, because it would make ...
