How Would You Go About Making a Movie Plot for These Characters?

Post by Almighty Majin » Tue Sep 20, 2022 7:19 pm

Dragon Ball Super: Super Hero focused heavily around Gohan and Piccolo while also giving them power ups that boosted them to the higher tiers of power in DB. How would you go about giving the same treatment (movie plot + power up) to some of these other duos?

Goten & Trunks
Krillin & Master Roshi
Tien & Yamcha
Android 17 & Android 18

Goten & Trunks: Goten has recently begun attending the same private school as Trunks, surprisingly in the same year despite being a year younger than Trunks. To Trunks' horror he finds that not only is Goten surprisingly smart (for being such an idiot) but he's also popular with the ladies, much unlike his father and older brother who both seem to be nowhere near the ladies' man that Goten is. Trunks, expecting things to go his way, is constantly and unintentionally comedically foiled by his best friend. Meanwhile, Idaasa and his younger brother Ikoose are delinquent martial artists picking fights with and accumulating territory in the area. After getting their asses kicked by Goten and Trunks again the duo of brothers make a deal with the devil when they come across a cursed Gaccha app on their smart phones that allows them to gain power, but—unknowingly to them—slowly kills them. Back at the school we learn more about Goten's girlfriend Palace-chan, an 'idiot' who is in fact simply without ego and thus able to view the world around her objectively. Palace-chan, we learn, is the daughter of the owner of the very gaming company that creates the popular smart phone Gaccha game that every high schooler is playing. Trunks, a rich idiot, and Goten, a poor idiot, are the only ones not addicted to the game and burning all of their money away on upgrades, instead simply leveling up through normal grinding. Goten, Trunks, and Palace-chan find that the game is beginning to affect everyone that plays the game, even them. Curious, Palace-chan tries using the randomized Gaccha feature and winds up falling prey to the curse, too. Now, Trunks has to work through his hang-ups over how all his money and Refine Breeding are completely useless to help save Palace-chan and to stop the brainwashed and powered up high schoolers of the city from losing their lives. Trunks and Goten overcome their differences and eventually achieve a new transformation: Super Saiyan Hero Gotenks. Eventually, the children are saved and the app is removed from their phones thanks to Palace-chan resisting the full control of the app and deleting it from the server of her mother's gaming company. At the end of the day Trunks and friends wonder just how the app was able to brainwash people and give them powers, despite no apparent influence from its developer, Palace-chan's mother. In a post-credit scene we the assistant of Palace-chan's mother shredding documents that could implicate him in the app crisis. Themes of the story include: Gaccha is bad, especially when aimed at young people, technology is amoral but humans can use it in corrupt ways, Boy's Love, bisexuality and learning to grow as a person and friend.

I don't really feel like doing the rest right now.

Perhaps they can mix them both

One for Goten & Trunks with Tien & Yamcha and then another Krillin & Master Roshi and Android 17 & Android 18.


Plot for Goten & Trunks with Tien & Yamcha:
It should be a fusion movie, given the fact tha they did it so poorly in the last movie, the kid would teach that to them both. Yamcha gets a girlfriend from the other world.

Plot for the Krillin & Master Roshi and Android 17 & Android 18 Movie
That one can be like those korean dramas/family sitcom /mexican telenovela. We would see the family of Roshi, 18, Krillin and his daughter Maron (marron? maroon? maroon 5?) in the kame house and then uncle 17.Besides the family and toddler adventures and shenanigans, it could be a drama where 18 helps 17 to overcome the post traumatic event of becoming an android and she states she finds her strenght in her family (awwwwww)

Oof, that would probably cause Bandai Namco to lose it and demand it to be removed haha, considering the bank Dokkan Battle and Legends did. I'd like to see how that meeting turn out. Or it would probably be made just as a justification to push their greedy methods, idk.
