After over 15 years of waiting, it turn out to be Janemba.

I mean, it's cool, I won't lie. But Salagir certainly lied when he said Janemba wasn't part of DBM's canon.
Well, if it can improve upon the story at least, I won't hound him for it. If it can.

Let it be known that the Dragon Ball Multiverse comment moderators will permanently ban users for disagreeing with them and general critique of the comic.
I imagine that they were looking for a reason to ban me ever since I pointed out Salagir was clearly lying about his website traffic to just about everyone for some reason. (He claims that his comic has just as many visitors as it did when it was at the peak of popularity)

Anyway, I'd move my critique here, but what's the point? Nobody really cares about this comic anymore.

Were you using a different username on there? I think it's funny that the ones arguing it's losing popularity are some of the most active people with hundreds of comments. In that fan comic compilation thread, DBM is the only one getting that kind of attention for some reason. The rest are treated like regular fanfiction and the only people who take the time to comment have to have some interest in the story. Almost all your comments on Kanzenshuu have been in this thread so why not give those other fan comics a try.

I have, but there's really not all that much to say about them. Only DBM was something that I found enjoyable once before it dove off a cliff and never recovered. It's easier to be negative about something that was once good but turned into garbage than something that is just alright.
Come to think of it, it was around the same time that Gogeta Jr. left that the story started to shift into its current form.

It's gonna be funny when we've had two Dragon Ball series and four movies come and go in the time it has taken this webcomic to pass a single sluggish arc, but at least we got to see kill Broly kill everyone, so that's something.
At the end of the day, DBM, while fun once is now little more than a strange exercise in the ludicrous storytelling of somebody who is far too arrogant to admit their headcanons are extremely flawed. (Freeza's power level doubles with every transformation, so his fourth form is actually 30 times weaker than it is in canon, Oozaru is a 2x multiplier despite Vegeta saying it is explicitly 10x, Vegeta was "evil" up until he admits Goku is better than him, to name a few)

Well I can only remember a handful of people who considered it worth their time to post hundreds or thousands of mostly negative comments for a fanfic. It's definitely not easier since that requires dozens or maybe hundreds of hours that could've spent on something they actually liked which is probably why most people don't do that. I enjoy engaging with other fans if I have some interest in a story but I can't relate to the idea of hating almost everything about a series and still considering it worth that kind of attention.

Once the story is over, it's just something for future fans to bingeread and unlikely anyone would read through the comments. Some of the fan comics in that thread might've had a few fans with that kind of dedication but you wouldn't know about them since current fans only ever read the comic itself. It's the same with Youtube narrators like Mondocool. He's only narrating the fan comics so all those new fans are experiencing these stories for the first time and don't know what previous fans said about them.

I don't think it's arrogance since almost every fanfic chooses which headcanon they're using for their specific story but could be ignored since they usually don't bring it up within the story itself. A fanfic writer is the same as any fan who comes up with headcanon for fun and still acknowledge that there could be more than one interpretation.

I'm speechless. So many years and pages hyping this character up, and the first real fighting we see from him is summoning Janemba. No twists or anything considering how their very origin story supposedly didn't happen in Multiverse's continuity. Just outright Janemba.

I will give them credit, it was unexpected I guess.

More of a topless than a full frontal, but yeah, it did.

Can't say I'm surprised Janemba made it into DBM; I mean, he's one of the most popular movie characters alongside Coola and Broly. I wonder if Gast will figure out his weakness by cursing, or maybe Salagir will just ignore that one, lol

I wonder what Janemba's origin is in XXI's universe, clearly he hasn't appeared in any other universe that we know of (because the Janemba movie never happened) so it's something to look forward to when we get the reveal of what actually went down in that universe, could it be that it's a universe where Janemba had a similar origin than in the movie but he was victorious against Goku, and XXI was the only one standing against it? Or was XXI the cause of Janemba existing in the first place?

Wow, didn’t expect to find this thread dead, even when DBS was airing here it was still active. No one even commented on the end of the Gast vs. Janemba fight, let alone complained about another crappy special being released, which I have no idea what is about now? Literally Gast taking a vacation on Earth? I haven’t even bothered to read it yet, probably gonna skip it like I do with most of these DBM specials.

The new special seems fine closing the lose end of the fate of the dragon team but yeah losing interest page by page was always a stupid ass release format
