I wonder what would happen if people used this "tactic" here in endless debate threads :lol: :clap:

Pretty much power level issues. Like there's one that claims they can't accept 17 powering up past Cell level, since it's still mostly a human body, but he'd be fine with an alien. Then there's some Gohan vs Piccolo discussion, like how his base and SSJ forms would match up with Piccolo right now.

Another said that the amount of power and limits from training change all the time, so it's no use worrying about it.

Another says that people who don't care about power comparisons can likely enjoy it more, but he'd like to believe it hasn't fallen apart to the point where comparisons are impossible.

Another one says that there's only any consistency in power levels if King Ryu is writing the episode.

Basically, very similar discussions to what's seen in Western boards.

This one is notable, never saw anyone pointing that here. Interesting

They are wrong then, because he wrote #84 which power level people have a problem with.

Yeah, I hadn't seen recent credit lists, but he wrote the Kuririn vs Goku battle, which is one of the most questionable ones, especially the bit with Kuririn vs SSJ Goku.

I don't know if he "wrote" it or not, he could have been told to do so, but what I meant to say is that those kind of things can be in his episodes too.

It is just him talking about 17, nothing really interesting or important.

I think he is talking about the new article that I posted in the last page. Still no translation for it yet.

This article seems very interesting, there are some bits which could give insight to Toriyama's involvement levels, I might not be 100℅ correct so I will refrain from saying what it is

I'm very interested in that producer interview. It seems like he also talks about Toriyama's involvment with this arc and also he might confirm there is effectively a no-flying rule which I'm most hyped about.

The only new thing I could find is that it was Toriyama's idea to include Kame Sennin in the group, as well as the other members.

I have a translation myself, but really don't wanna give false hype to anyone in case I am wrong about certain things...
Have been burnt before doing this.. :(

I will say Google translate does a good job as well showing some parts, it will give a good idea till the full translations come out.. :thumbup:

Hopefully this interview reveals when toriyama started working on the survival arc because I have a theory that he was working on it since the champa arc

He finished his outline for the Future Trunks Arc sometime around or before February last year, so he probably started early work on this arc around that time.
