This, except make it the Soushuhen instead of the Kanzenban.

Adding to what else has been said in this thread, here are some of my own wishes (some of which are more realistic than others, I would hope):

An uncut, bilingual 4K Blu-ray (and regular Blu-ray) release of all the 80s and 90s movies (with the 1992 Summer Vacation special as an extra).

An uncut, bilingual Blu-ray set containing the Fire Fighting and Traffic Safety videos, the 1993 DBZ Year-End TV Special, Heya! Son Goku & Friends Return!, the Episode of Bardock 2011 special, The Terebiiko DBZ Goku World video, both parts of Plan to Eracdiate the Saiyans (both the 1993 visual guide versions and the 1994 Playdia versions, the latter using Blu-ray seamless branching to recreate the FMV-style gameplay), and Raging Blast 2's Plan to Eradicate the Super Saiyans video.

An uncut, bilingual Blu-ray set of all the Dream 9 Toriko and One Piece crossover specials (both those that also involve Dragon Ball and those that don't).

A Switch physical release collecting various vintage Jump-related games, including all the Go! Go! Ackman games, the two Gokuhen SFC games, and Hyper Dimension.

For the rest of the Dr. Slump-media to get an official English release (including the Dr. Slump Returns for A Little While manga, and the late 90s V-Jump manga which AFAIK has not been collected anywhere yet)

A World of Akira Toriyama Blu-ray set containing the Kosuke & Rikimaru film, the Pink short film, the Kennosuke-sama short film, and the Go! Go! Ackman short film.

English releases of Hetappi Manga Kenkyūjo, Kajika, the Neko Majin kanzenban, Katsura Akira, Toccio the Angel, the Dragon Ball SD tankobans, the DeSpo FighterZ tankobans, and all the DB Heroes manga.

An Akira Toriyama's Manga Theater Vol. 2 including :

Imposible thing I'd love to see? A video release that just goes from manga panel to manga panel using music and voiceover (they have this, just not for Dragon Ball). I would mostly be interested in the Ocean cast doing this. Screw it--that would be good enough to make up for Ocean Kai getting shelved never to see the light of day. And, would be great for them to do Super. Also, would be nice to get some sort of music/voiceover for the manga arcs that the anime hasn't covered (thisngoes for the Ocean cast, Funimation's cast, or the Japanese cast of course).

No timing, no mouth flaps, no mimicking another cast--just pure acting out the manga lines. I would love to see it. This idea came as I'm going through the Super manga, actively changing the voices for the characters in my imagination between their Japanese voices, Funimation voices, and Ocean voices.

I would love to see more Dragon Ball films like Path to Power - that condense/remake the stories.

I'm sad they never followed up Path to Power with a remake of Piccolo Daimao or the three major sagas in Z.

A series of films remaking and condensing GT could be incredible if done right too.


Also, I want a Jaco The Galactic Patrol film.

Also Goku in smash bros
This but including the RoF chapters he did but with the Base Goku freeza powerscaling fixed, either using God or SS3 first.
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.

1. A new Spanish (from Spain, not Latin America) dub with all old fub mistakes fixed.
2. A new DBZ (with only DB and DBZ content) game with Tenkaichi-like-gameplay but Budokai-like power asignation (with capsules), a great story mode and the chance to turn every saiyan character into SSJ, SS2 and SSJ3. I'd like Bardock's friends and DBZ Pan as playable characters, and a the chance to turn Freezer and Cold into the 5 forms (including Cooler's final form). Story mode should be loyal to original manga/anime, but you could reach unseen transformations and use it later (for example, in the same way you can't turn into SSJ when you are fighting against Raditz by first in Tenkaichi 2, but later, when you reach Freezer saga, you can fight him again in SSJ. In the game I propose, you couldn't use SSJ3 Vegeta until you complete Boo saga. With main antagonists that problem would exist, since they are usually playable in non-story modes only). I'd like the story of the guy who reincarnated in Yamcha in story mode, with him fighting Piccolo Daimaoh's henchmen and the Ginyu force.

Toriyama being a guest at conventions more than once in a lifetime.
Do you have any info about international non-English broadcasts about the Dragon Ball anime or manga translations/editions? Please message me. Researching for a future book with Dragon Ball scholar Derek Padula :thumbup:

First thing I thought of is Yajarobe actually being a useful badass instead of a useless lazy ass
He has SOME good swordsmanship skills but they are severely wasted throughout the entirety of the series

Remember the ONLY time when he ACTUALLY did something badass : cut off Vegeta’s tail

Why didn’t he have more moments like that to overcome his cowardice and have some more moments of bravery?

I mean I know almost ALL the antagonists are infinitely more powerful than him as he’s just a regular human with a very weak power level obviously but maybe he could’ve at LEAST helped against the Saibamen or something by catching them by surprise like he did with Great Ape Vegeta
In fact surprise seems to be his forte and best bet at getting any attack in at a much stronger opponent

Yeah that would be awesome if they ever reanimated the entire series in a Kai like condensed movie trilogy
Actually with the release of Kai I’m kinda surprised they haven’t done that yet
Maybe for its 35th or 40th anniversary hopefully
(Dang I can’t believe the series is almost that old already!)

1 Android 21 being the main character and antagonist of a film, i would have preffer that over whatever the hell the new movie was, she is popular and easily one of the best new things in the franchise since BOG.

2 Drop vegeta from this "eternal rival main character to goku" type of stuff, vegeta wasnt especial to goku in the manga, they barely talk, he was a secondary character that got popular to the point we HAVE to see his face everywhere in modern dragon ball, if goku gets anything the vegeta fan boys will cry and then vegeta gets something inmediately, the baby cries, baby gets the bottle.
Goku gets god form? then vegeta must get god form, goku combines blue with kaioken? Quick we must give something to vegeta or the fans will get angry again! goku gets ultra instinc? then vegeta MUST get a new form Ultra masochist!, goku gets his unique tecnique called dragon fist? then vegeta MUST also get a dragon fist tecnique in the video games! its so fucking repetitive and boring.
Since when dragon ball became the dynamic duo? why does goku existence must be chained to vegeta? do vegeta fans actually enjoy this? vegeta in super is just grumpy in his crossed arms pose 100% of the time, i found vegeta in DBS his most boring version of the character.

3 since i am ranting about DBS, i wish for a remake of the entire thing, dont redo BOG or resurrection of F, get away from the yamammuro style, make it a seasonal 25 episode anime by year, make it happen AFTER the manga, universe 6 would be the first arc while also adding the exhibition episodes to it, establish the tournament of power as the final arc since episode 1, keep the characters personalities closer to the original manga, leave recolors out and just focus on the concept of god ki, make it 100 episodes instead of 131, maybe add caulifla as gokus student? i saw a fan manga on twitter that did this concept perfectly.

4 maybe a fan remake of the legacy of goku games? with better sprites and dialogue closer to the manga.

Since the Buu arc. It almost feels like Gohan tested first as a lead but then Goku took over and his dynamic with Vegeta was too appealing, and so it stayed. I didn’t dislike their ‘duo’ per se but I hate when Goku’s character is sabotaged in favor of that dynamic, which is what I'm feeling lately.

I think at this point I want him to just hang out with someone other than Vegeta, have him go on a mission with Orange Piccolo or something.

He was afraid of Women, Bulma was the flirty one.
Yamcha wanted to get married (it was his gonna be his wish)

A good AND affordable DBZ release with broadcast Japanese audio and proper credits for English.

Goku didn't die in GT. The show sucked him off so much, it was impossible to keep him in the world of the living, so he ascended beyond mortality.

Nope, that's exclusive to the FUNimation dub of Z IIRC. Pretty sure the only time Goku and Chi Chi kissed was in the 23rd Tenka'ichi Budokai, but even then, it was less Goku doing the kissing, and more Chi Chi.

The dub added the sound but it was strongly implied in the Z anime.
