What if you were in charge of a new DBZ series?

Post by otakutrevan » Sun Apr 12, 2009 11:21 pm

Everyone, post a summary of your ideas. Rules are Simple. 3 sagas and can't be to long.Get this thread jumpin. 8)

I would have about 3 main story arcs just to keep it nice and simple. Fight scenes would be similiar to the first 3 Dbz movies.

It would begin with Goku and Uub training.....


Space Arc. This would show what happened to the Cold family's interplanetary organizations after their demise(Freeza,Cooler,Cold). Another changeling would be in charge and give the Z warriors a run for their money.

Demon/ Kai Arc Toriyama's new interview and guide gave much new unknown to the workings of the Kais. Some how our heroes get involved and end of fighting Daburas successor as king of the demon world

Saiyan Arc This would show the COMPLETE origins/history of the Saiyan race. Explain age, are some half breeds REALLY born with/without tails. It would end in the Legendary Super Saiyan somehow being brought back to life and somehow defeated or maybe even join our heroes.

What you guys think?

I'd make it take place after the 28th budokai.

Demon Realm saga.Like you, I'd love to a see something in the Demon Realm. It would start off with Kaioshin returning from the Demon Realm in the middle of Uub's training, to ask Goku for help. He'd explain that because he'd fused with Kibito, and because Dabura was gone, he thought he'd be strong enough to bring order to the Demon Realm. It turns out other Makaioshin have already used Potara and are greatly more powerful than he is; the fused being just didn't give a damn about ruling the Cosmos. But because Kaioshin invaded his Realm, he wants to destroy all of the Cosmos. Goku and Uub go to take him on. There, they meet Z, the neko majin from NMZ.

Training/29th Budokai saga.Goku, Uub and Z return to Earth. Goku trains them both, and then decides to test their mettle by entering them in the budokai. Vegeta, Boo and Pan also enter. Typical budokai saga with Satan shitting bricks over who he's going to have to fight, since nobody but Boo has promised to forfeit against him. Goku enters as "Bryce Tee" so that Z and Uub won't know it's him, but everybody aside from Z figures it out immediately -though he takes Bryce as a serious opponent because he has a ki as enormous as Goku's. Through luck of the draw, the first round goes Vegeta v Goku, Uub v Boo, Z v Pan, Thunderbolt v funny budokai finalist. Z wins because Goku v Uub resulted in a draw. Satan manages to bribe Z into forfeiting by promising him his favorite food afterwards ("Thank goodness he's just as easy to manipulate as Mr Boo is!")

Cosmos saga.We discover there's a second realm outside the cosmos other than Kaioshinkai. It is the Genekai, which is only a small planet (Gene-sei) orbiting a small sun. It is home to Genesama (all puns on "Genesis"), who is the creator of the Cosmos and of Kaioshinkai. His goal is to destroy both, as he believes all dimensions other than original are abominations against nature (he is refering to timelines created by time travellers like Trunks and Cell). He starts by attacking the afterlife in order to destroy the reincarnation process by taking out Enma and the Oni. Elder Kaioshin has knowledge of Genesama because it turns out the difference between a Dai Kaioshin and a regular Kaioshin is that the Dai Kaioshin is often summoned by Genesama to relay his orders to the Cosmos. In light of this, the two Kaioshin feel compelled to join him. Strong warriors are all a result of Genesama being able to make them out of nothing, resulting in a big melee starring everybody. Goku and Uub somehow manage to convince Genesama to spare their Cosmos through some act of bravery.

Epilogue. Not a saga, so much as a few panels to a chapter. A Shin-jin has been promoted to Kaioshin. He goes to Kaioshinsei for the first time to train under the Dai Kaioshin. We see a glimpse of Geezer Goku welcoming him.

The Clone Saga

Set after Goku leaves in GT, Bulma creates a cloning machine for her husband to bring back old enemies to train against, Cell and Freeza get beat up a lot, of course, and Vegeta even goes as far as cloning Goku 4 times.
But something goes wrong!

The Cell and Freeza Clones fuse, creating Ceeza, and The Goku's fuse to become Kakaku and Gokarot.

And yes, the clones are evil, but the two Goku clone fusions kill Ceeza eventually.

Tenshinhan and Chaozu will develop a new cloning technique like their Shishin no Ken and they're able to keep their strength rather than break it up, and they're able to teach it to Vegeta and even Gotenks, so that's how they'll fight them off even harder, but they're still too much. Eventually Gokarot becomes Goku, retaining all of his memories and feelings for his freinds, while Kakaku seems to have more memory of his instructions to destroy Earth, and he sacrifyces himself to destroy the evil clone. Vegeta ends up Big Banging the clone-o-matic in the desert and all is well.

I'll finish this later, got stuff to do.

The clone saga sounds a really good idea! I could just imagine Vegeta cloning Goku four times! :) Master Roshi would clone lots of beautiful young ladies to live in his house... Yajorobie would clone his hamburger...

Personally I would focus on the relationships of Dragonball Z characters, and the past of the Saiyan's.

I think a saga based on the planet Vegeta and the wrath of Freeza would be a good start, And then a saga focussing on the gap whilst Goten and Trunks are conceived. It would be nice to see the characters in a slightly different light and completing the mystery surrounding Bulma and Vegeta. - We know it was a passion thing, but it would be some amazing episodes to actually watch their relationship/hate for one another progress.

Mine would be like Kai, just with the same animation as the OP + ED. Also, there would be more episodes chronicling every day life of the DBZ characters.

I would have it be a quick one shot 120 minute episode. The whole episode consists of Goku's fight with Freeza. During the fight, we flashback throughout Goku's life to learn how he got to this fight, and what it means to him. It would show his training with Gohan, his training with Roshi and befriending Krillin, learning new techniques such as the Genkidama, etc. These flashbacks would then be appropriate because Goku would use the techniques seen. It will conclude with the Genki-Dama failing, Krillin will be killed and Goku will turn Super Saiyan. The rest of the fight, is left to the viewer's imagination.

Same shizzaz over here, though mabye a little less than 30 sagas on Gohan and Videl. :P

But if I had to choose one, it'd be Mark and Buu. Endless possibilities for screwball comedy misadventures...

Mine would be set GT time as a replacement to GT:


Cell Jr Saga : This is because my 3 arcs would be Gohan , Trunks , Goten , Videl , Good Buu , Mr Satan , Pan and Bra as the main stars.

This Saga is about one Cell Jr escaped and has been training for years to avenge his father. Main fight = Gohan vs Cell Jr.


The Virus Saga - Cell Jr having been allowed to live by Gohan reluctantly helps them (He'll be Gohan's Vegeta in the series) A new virus has been released. It kills the saiyan blood. As a result Videl , Good Buu , Mr Satan and Bra must travel back in time to stop an old enemy of the saiyan race from releasing virus.

Main fights = Buu and Videl = New enemy.


Father vs Son saga - Goku and Vegeta are seen fighting a new pair of aliens who can posses people. They loose and are possessed. Now the new fighters must stop the 2 strongest Z warriors of old.

Main fights , Trunks and Buu vs Vegeta. Goku Vs Gohan and Goten. Gogeta vs Gotenks and Gohan. Cell Jr and Gohan vs Gogeta

Transformations : Pan goes SSJ

Deaths = Buu, Piccolo, Videl , Bra , Mr Satan, Pan , Trunks, Goten.

Ending = Dragonballs wish everyone back and Goku and Vegeta realse the new generation is just as good as their Generation.




Note : Bra = Same type of role in series as Bulma in Dragon ball. Mr Satan = Comic relief like Oolong was in dragon ball.

I don't see how a long-running show about our favorite Sentai couple could possibly be anything but sheer perfection. With a theme forged from the traditions of 80s mecha and sentai shows, garbled english and heroic themes of justice and love all around.

It'd be the best show ever. =p
