The arc seems to be neatly split in acts like a movie would be, so it was just a thought. The reason why I asked about the arc's reception in Japan is because that might determine if this story is getting adapter or not. The writers could very well use the manga as a test run and if reception is underwhelming they could go back to Toriyama and ask for another story- just brain storming here.Mister_Popo wrote: ↑Tue Dec 24, 2019 2:01 pmMichsi wrote: ↑Tue Dec 24, 2019 1:51 pm
I actually don't think there's a lot to rewrite. The whole first act could be the attack on Namek which could be like half an hour- the middle arc is the training/attack on earth- and the final act whatever happens next in the manga. Same basic idea, same beats.
Does anybody know how the Moro arc is generally seen in by the fandom in Japan?
No thx. If i have two wait for two years in total to get some more animated content in the canon storyline after Broly ... don't give me Moro, give me something brand new please.
Btw you can't actually fit the manga content right away in a movie, you will substantially have to rewrite stuff. It would be otherwise impossible to make it fit. I agree it would be easier to fit the Moro arc in a movie than let's say the Zamasu arc, but rewriting will be needed anyway.
There is more than enough time to speculate. That's for sure.
