Re: BleedingCool News claims Toriyama is writing new Dragon Ball
I'd like to think if it's true, it's a manga version of the story for DBO. I mean, didn't he write the story for that?
Re: BleedingCool News claims Toriyama is writing new Dragon Ball
Wait, Wait, Wait.
If Viz Media is going to bring this manga over to the US, does that mean we'll finally get a US Localization of DragonBall Online along with it? 'Cause I would love to see that happen!

DBZ bootlegs have the movie 9 cover with the pioneer movie 2 description on the back and the disc actually has a Japanese soap opera in MEPG2.

Re: BleedingCool News claims Toriyama is writing new Dragon Ball
There's absolutely no evidence that Toriyama ever intended to end the story after the Freeza arc. (Also, there's another rumor going around that he wanted to end the series after the Cell arc. That's also a baseless rumor.)Rocketman wrote:Basically, Toriyama wanted to end it after nearly every major story arc. He doesn't like doing large works. Freeza comes up the most because it's the first 'ending' in Z, it wraps the entire story of Goku's life nice and tidy, and the stitches used to force the story to continue are so damn blatant.Mewzard wrote:Where did the whole "He meant to end the series at *insert saga" even come from? I'm sure he decided to end it when it ended, but besides some power scaling after Freeza (damage from attacks were scaled back), it doesn't seem to be the case that he wanted to stop early.

He mentioned wanting to end the story after the 21st Tenka'ichi Budôkai, but that's it.Chibi Mystic Gohan wrote:There's absolutely no evidence that Toriyama ever intended to end the story after the Freeza arc.

Re: BleedingCool News claims Toriyama is writing new Dragon Ball
Yep. One or two story arcs doesn't equal "nearly every major story arc."

Re: BleedingCool News claims Toriyama is writing new Dragon Ball
The only "Toriyama wanted to end it here" endings that I actually buy are the 22nd World Martial Arts Tournament endings and the Cell Games endings, only because of the nature of them.

Re: BleedingCool News claims Toriyama is writing new Dragon Ball
IIRC, in one of the Toriyama interviews (volume 2 or 9 or something), I believe he stated that he was originally going to finish after Pilaf. Don't quote me on that until someone checks though.

I'm going to keep my fingers crossed that this is true. This could be potentially be the resurgence of anime and manga so I'm going to be optimistic about the entire thing.

Re: BleedingCool News claims Toriyama is writing new Dragon Ball
That was more a realistic expectation than a creative vision. Those expectations were shattered due to the manga's popularity.Tyro wrote:IIRC, in one of the Toriyama interviews (volume 2 or 9 or something), I believe he stated that he was originally going to finish after Pilaf.

He can come back, but he would be creating his own plotholes with his forgetfullness.

Re: BleedingCool News claims Toriyama is writing new Dragon Ball
I doubt they are going to use AF as the title since its likely that AT will never use a title that have been use for Fan Fiction.

Re: BleedingCool News claims Toriyama is writing new Dragon Ball
I don't know what everyone's getting so excited about: we have absolutely no confirmation on this, no other sites are reporting it, and the whole thing is so baseless someone could just have made it up for some giggles. "We received word"? Please.
Yeah, I'm not holding my breath on this one.

Re: BleedingCool News claims Toriyama is writing new Dragon Ball
Then again, when we first heard about DB Kai, everyone thought Wasted Wisher was "just a guy" saying baseless things, and look what we have now!

And not only that, but Marc already mentioned that the guy reporting this is very reliable and rarely sources his news anyway.

Yeah, and apparently the website has a record of being inside the loop of certain informations.

Re: BleedingCool News claims Toriyama is writing new Dragon Ball
EVERYONE! Pray to your deity of choice! I really hope this is true.
Until then I shall await news with ears and arms wide open!

Re: BleedingCool News claims Toriyama is writing new Dragon Ball
Apparently, Namco Bandai is going to wait to see how it does in Asian markets before it's released over seas. It's doing pretty terribly in Korea, no doubt due to the fact that the series isn't overly popular and that everyone and their mom is playing Star Craft II. But, if this is Dragon Ball Online related, then it might well coincide with a Japanese release at the very least.Arique wrote:Wait, Wait, Wait.

Re: BleedingCool News claims Toriyama is writing new Dragon Ball
As far as I can tell, there still hasn't been any news about if/when it will finally be released in Japan. I guess if this is true, it might coincide with an announcement for the Japanese release of DBO.Kiyza wrote:But, if this is Dragon Ball Online related, then it might well coincide with a Japanese release at the very least.

Re: BleedingCool News claims Toriyama is writing new Dragon Ball
Yeah, there's been absolutely nothing regarding a Japanese release of the game. Interestingly enough, there's going to be a Hong Kong release planned for before the end of the year. You'd think Japan would be the first to get it.TripleRach wrote:As far as I can tell, there still hasn't been any news about if/when it will finally be released in Japan.
