Re: Fanmanga - DB Multiverse
To be honest, I find the significant lack of importance of "our" cast pretty disappointing at times.
It seems like U16 are the main characters, not U18.

Re: Fanmanga - DB Multiverse
Maybe. Either way, this subplot is suffering from classic DB syndrome. We know that Bra can be restored with a wish, regardless. It'd better take a radical turn along the way, or this whole subplot will have been useless.rereboy wrote:Goku could easily go to the afterlife as shown in manga. In DBM, Vegetto has shown several times that he's significantly better than Goku ever was at traveling to wherever he wants with his teleportation techniques, so I don't see how he would have a problem with that.Jinzoningen MULE wrote:But that would require Vegetto to go to the afterlife, which he may or may not be able to do from the tournament grounds.rereboy wrote:

There might be, or there might not be. It's unknown at this time. Possibly, there could be a different kind of afterlife there, or just a sort of limbo for people that die there. I wouldn't read too much about Pan not remembering since many people that were brought back with the DB (like all of the earth's population), seemed to not remember much about being in the afterlife.BlazingBarrrager wrote:Is there even an afterlife in the Universe they're in since it's supposed to be absent of any life whatsoever?

Re: Fanmanga - DB Multiverse
The difference between Earth's general population and the main cast is that Goku and co. generally keep their bodies in the afterlife while everyone else is just a little soul thing.rereboy wrote:There might be, or there might not be.

U18 are definitely the main characters.Doctor. wrote:To be honest, I find the significant lack of importance of "our" cast pretty disappointing at times.

This is apparent due to how Vegetto seems to be significantly less good and potentially much more dangerous than the people at U18, and U16 Bra suffers from the same issue even though with slightly different strokes.
The spotlight is on U16 a lot due to how strong they are currently, which makes them important for the plot and for the events. But, to me, it seems evident that the plan is not for they ultimately being the heroes that the plot will need. In fact, as it was already teased, they, especially Vegetto, will eventually become one of the greatest problems/dangers of the tournament. As such, U18 will eventually step up.
Sure, but why would that affect their memories? Plus, if it does indeed have something to do with it, Pan doesn't seem to have gotten her body in the afterlife since it apparently didn't disappear.BlazingBarrrager wrote:The difference between Earth's general population and the main cast is that Goku and co. generally keep their bodies in the afterlife while everyone else is just a little soul thing.rereboy wrote:There might be, or there might not be.

I don't agree with that. Personally, I think that's a false problem unless we only like stories where we don't know if there will be an happy ending. If Dragon Ball simply didn't have ways to bring back the good characters, they simply wouldn't die because this is a story with an happy ending.Jinzoningen MULE wrote: Maybe.

The Dragon Balls simply allow for death on a large scale to actually happen, while in a story of the same kind without Dragon Balls, death on a large scale simply wouldn't happen.

The souls went somewhere at least, they didn't cease to exist because the dragon brought them back.

Maybe that's what Bardock saw in his vision, Goku and Vegeta might not have been fighting Vegetto but Ginyu in his body.Kamiccolo9 wrote:Yeah, I'm thinking that maybe the change technique can be reflected back onto Vegetto fr om that position?TonyTheTiger wrote:I bet he's bluffing.

As far as I know, no. Nor does that make any sense to me, as I've explained in my previous post about the issue.Marco Polo wrote:Actually didn't Salagir say U16 are the main characters?Doctor. wrote:To be honest, I find the significant lack of importance of "our" cast pretty disappointing at times.

Re: Fanmanga - DB Multiverse
It all really feels like it points towards Ginyu going back to Bra's body quickly, and the plot moving along without consequence. At least to me. Am I the only one?
If I'm right, that's how many years of building up the mystery of Ginyu? All used up swiftly.

Re: Fanmanga - DB Multiverse
I dunno...my plot senses are tingling, and they're telling me that Ginyu's going to be swapping bod's with Vegetto very soon. Maybe he'll switch with him via the reflection; or maybe she'll switch to Cold, but then immediately switch to Vegetto while he's in front of him.FreddleFrooby wrote:It all really feels like it points towards Ginyu going back to Bra's body quickly, and the plot moving along without consequence.

As for the "years", that's only because of the slow release schedule necessary due to being a fan manga. Ginyu was foreshadowed in chapter 24. That was only 15 main chapters ago. If this was a regular manga in a weekly magazine, there would be no special chapters and it could only take 15 weeks to release the material of those 15 chapters (aka 4 months). Granted, it would probably take more because, if it was a regular manga, things would also be developed more.

Re: Fanmanga - DB Multiverse
Ginyu should switch with Bra then with Vegito right after. A s for the main character discussion, with U18 Vegeta running around with a mystery form and Vegito implied to be the villian I would say u18 is still the main characters its just Salagir has to spend time building up Vegito so it makes Goku and Vegeta(hopefully as Gogeta) look that much more impressive when they deal with him.

Re: Fanmanga - DB Multiverse
Vegetto can just do a Soul Punisher (Stardust Breaker).. It erased all the Evil essence (Spirit?s) from the little Oni's body while not shredding it to pieces.
It's not too late. One day, it will be.

Re: Fanmanga - DB Multiverse
The first thing I thought of when reading the new page.
Guys, let's trust Saligir isn't going to completely botch the Ginyu subplot. If he goes right back into Cold's body now, it would be one of the worst-written twists I'd ever seen, and I can't believe Dragon Ball Multiverse could ever screw the pooch that royally. Can't we all agree the comic is at least that competent in its storytelling? The lack of faith here is quite disturbing.

Re: Fanmanga - DB Multiverse
It's just weird because unless Vegito is bluffing I can't see how Ginyu can get out of this...
I hope babidi powers up ginyu-bra or something...
I hope this isn't an anti climax, I wanna see xxi and the babidi army plots go somewhere too.

Yamcha almost certainly did not cheat on Bulma:
He was afraid of Women, Bulma was the flirty one.
Yamcha wanted to get married (it was his gonna be his wish)
He suggested they settle down in the Trunks saga.
Alternate future Trunks is not a reliable source.
Toriyama wanted new SSJ Kids and not make new characters.

Re: Fanmanga - DB Multiverse
I point at the Future Majin Attack, The Friend, and the Cell v Tapion battle where the story wasn't its competent. Even Deus Ex Machina has problems when you get past how utterly metal it is. That said, there's plenty of examples of when the series went so right including Ginyu-Bra, Vegetto vs Broly, Vegeta vs Future Trunks, Both U7 Specials - It's 50/50 at this point: There may be a plan for Ginyu...Or there isn't.ParkerAL wrote:The first thing I thought of when reading the new page.
