Re: "Sparking! ZERO" Official Announcement & Pre-Release Discussion Thread
Not so fast, we've been shown that Sparking Zero's roster is going to be 164, which is only 3 more than Tenkaichi 3's. We got OG, we got Z, and we got Super, but we have no official confirmation for GT or non-canon movies (Bardock is safe because he's from an OVA). Not saying we won't get reps from GT and movies in the base game, but we only have like 50 or so slots left before the base roster is filled up, and we still need some important characters from OG, DBZ, and DBS (King Piccolo, Tamborine, the rest of the Ginyu Force, the other forms for DBZ Frieza, Cell, and Buu, as well as Jaco, Champa, Cabba, Frost, and maybe Botamo and Magetta).HulkTySSJ5 wrote: Sat Jul 27, 2024 8:01 pmDirect sequel.

We only got a couple of months left and things are getting pretty tight.

Re: "Sparking! ZERO" Official Announcement & Pre-Release Discussion Thread
I'm hoping all the og characters from bt3 return for this. But reality is a cruel Mistress. So at least give me a robust og cast to play as. Maybe Major Metaltron?
Also why does every English media refer to Tao by his JPN name now? He was always Mercenary/General Tao for English speakers.

Re: "Sparking! ZERO" Official Announcement & Pre-Release Discussion Thread
Tao Pai-Pai is just his full name, not really a change. Also, I don't understand why the dub used "General" Tao, he was a hired assassin who had nothing to do with the Red Ribbon Army.GTx10 wrote: Sun Jul 28, 2024 9:00 pm I'm hoping all the og characters from bt3 return for this.

That aside, the way Edmundson said "The Red Ribbon Army" does make me wonder. In BT3, the only RRA characters were General Blue, Dr. Gero, and technically the androids (though 19 was the only one who didn't defect; 8, 16, 17, and 18 all did their own thing). It would be interesting if we got some OG newcomers. Personally speaking, I've always wanted to see Ninja Murasaki in a Tenkaichi game.

They couldn't say Mercenary in a kids show so since he was with the RRA they made him a general.Rinsankajugin wrote: Sun Jul 28, 2024 9:52 pmTao Pai-Pai is just his full name, not really a change.

Something about First Form Frieza looks off, but I can't put my finger on it.
When Super apparently shoves Goku down our throats:

His clean face when not smirking? His short limbs? Spike was always going for the really short 1st Frieza (inspired by the Bardock special when he kills King Vegeta), while Dimps were always going for longer limbs in his first form.Kanassa wrote: Tue Jul 30, 2024 10:19 am Something about First Form Frieza looks off, but I can't put my finger on it.
At any rate, great trailer.

Re: "Sparking! ZERO" Official Announcement & Pre-Release Discussion Thread
Definitely a surprising trailer for sure, considering nobody from the V-Jump or IGN reveals were shown off. I am glad that Cui and Nail made the cut though.

Re: "Sparking! ZERO" Official Announcement & Pre-Release Discussion Thread
It's the scouter. It was red in the Z anime but they went with the greenish-blue (and thinner) lense from the Broly movie. Since Freeza has the Z anime colors it kinda clashes. Even his facial features give more of a Shintani vibe when he's not smirking too.Kanassa wrote: Tue Jul 30, 2024 10:19 am Something about First Form Frieza looks off, but I can't put my finger on it.

Yeah, Freeza's facial features look simplified when he's not making an expression. Looks like Shintani's designs.omegalucas wrote: Tue Jul 30, 2024 10:51 amIt's the scouter.

Re: "Sparking! ZERO" Official Announcement & Pre-Release Discussion Thread
Interesting how the Japanese trailer didn't feature any voice work from Yamcha, but did feature voice work from Chaotzu and Tenshinhan.
Re: "Sparking! ZERO" Official Announcement & Pre-Release Discussion Thread
Meh, nice trailer but pretty much all characters I expected, maybe nail is the one i was not sure about... would have much rather prefered a red ribbon or OG trailer or some other characters that were more of a suprize.

Re: "Sparking! ZERO" Official Announcement & Pre-Release Discussion Thread
I hope this time around Ginyu actually changes bodies with his current opponent (like in the Budokai games and FighterZ) and not a random Namek saga character like in BT3.

Well, we are getting every Freeza form, already miles ahead of the shitty XV series

Re: "Sparking! ZERO" Official Announcement & Pre-Release Discussion Thread
So I assume the next trailer will be Android Saga and Buu Saga?
All the characters we saw in the latest scans + Cells 3 other forms, All Teen Gohan forms, Evil Buu, Super Buu (3 forms), Kid Buu, Babidi potentially, Shin?
I feel like Super could be it's own trailer alone because they don't really have much characters to show from each saga: Tagoma? Magetta? Botamo? Cabba, any other Tournament of Power rep, GoD Toppo probably
Then for a final trailer we could get OG DB and GT if there's any room left in the roster

Re: "Sparking! ZERO" Official Announcement & Pre-Release Discussion Thread
Are there really people that love to main guys like Nail, Dodoria and Cui?
