Re: "Dragon Ball Super" Series Official Announcement & Discussion Thread
If there the anime were to return, at this point 2023 would make the most sense, agreed. Not 2021 (capacity) or 2024 (too long after the movie for the anime to use it as a "promotional diving board" and lure in movie audience into the series). In 2023 the reruns are over as well. So it wou...

Re: Dragon Ball Super Movie #2 Coming 2022! (Toriyama Scripting!)
It does feel a bit like 'much a do about nothing' because we already knew the movie was coming. 2022 had not yet been confirmed, but otherwise, not that much new under the sun. It is in line with expectations that the film will either take place shortly after Broly (in which case, there is a good c...

Re: If DBS anime returns don't expect improvements
I do not deny that an anime in principle still provides more promotion than a film for the franchise and that it simply gives way more opportunities for storytelling if done properly. But it also takes more money to make, while there are other shows to produce as well. I don't claim a certain movie-...

Re: If DBS anime returns don't expect improvements
Although TOEIs strongest asset might be the animation, Super did have some really descent written episodes. Maybe they realize this, with enough preparation time movies might be the way they decide to go in the future. It allows enough time for Toriyama to write a descent storyline and the animation...

Ultra Instinct is not a power-up, it's a way of fighting that's more efficient. SSJ is a power-up, would it make sense for SSJ to further enhance Ultra Instinct? A full mastery of UI in base and a subsequent new SSJ-form, would basically make the other forms unnecessary. They have kinda tried that ...

Re: Is Beerus what Goku will eventually become?
When he was dead there was to threat, and yet he still improved to higher transformations during that period, even without "serious challenges". There was no appearant threat at the beginning of BOG neither, as Buu was probably by far the biggest villain Universe 7 could ever have encounte...

Re: What you found savable of the DBS anime
Well to keep it short: it does not have the same consistent quality as the original series, but it has way too many iconic moments that hold their own merits to ignore the series as a DB-fan. Most of those are already mentionned by other people. It may not have become what some fans wanted to it be,...

Re: What if Jiren > Belmod has been quietly retconned already???!
I just checked last month's draft pages and while the resolution is bad and I might be misreading the kanji because of it, it looks like it's just GOD and not GODS what the dragon says. It's the kami kanji, not the kamigami kanji, but I'd gladly take someone else's input on this matter. To me 'gods...

Re: What if Jiren > Belmod has been quietly retconned already???!
We can't discard the possibility that Goku isn't actually much stronger than before, but with this technique he can defeat pretty much everyone, including stronger people. Jiren hinted at still being stronger than UI Goku even when he was getting pounded, claiming Goku was only taking advantage of ...

Re: What if Jiren > Belmod has been quietly retconned already???!
This creates a paradox somewhere. In this context, how is post Moro arc MUI Goku < Jiren < Belmod possible? It's unclear at this point. We will have to wait until the gods finally have to engage in a serious fight to get confirmation of their exact position We can't discard the possibility that Gok...

Re: How do you own the series? (2021 Edition)
Manga: VIZBigs 9 volumes covering the complete DB manga.

Re: What if Jiren > Belmod has been quietly retconned already???!
Intresting theory that somehow does make sense though. If it were to be true, which isn't proven, in that case absorption of erased energy would work in a simular way as MUI: a technique that basically grants the user a way higher battle output than that individual could achieve by normal training. ...

Re: What if Jiren > Belmod has been quietly retconned already???!
Chances are real they (or at least the top tier Gods) are still above all mortals to date, including powerhouses like Jiren or MUI Goku. It's not entirely clear whether it's mainly because of the Hakai, or they simply have a higher 'power level'. We should wait and see untill we finally see a fight ...

Re: So I Guess "Super Ultra Instinct" Is Next For Goku?
Didn't Whis state he is only at the bottom of the ladder when it comes to MUI? More than probably he will achieve a more perfected state by enhanced training, that more ressembles the state / combat tier of the real angels, rather than a mortal that has just mastered its basics. It's probably the sa...

Re: I feel like the Super anime (or a continuation of it?) has been quietly canceled
The smarter decision is to just adapt the manga into movies. That way you don't have the pacing issues that plague the Super anime. Wel, i know there are a lot of people that would not like that to happen. But if it guarantuees the overall quality of the end product, they may adapt every new arc in...

The Granolah-arc isn't too bad untill now, but a critical note i have with this concept is the following ...
