I feel stupid for not going to the source the instant we started this debate. :oops:

Here's the original French version: "Tu y repenseras a deux fois avant d'exciter un maniaque!"

Direct English Translatation: "You'll think twice before exciting a maniac!"

"Maniaque" in this context gets lost in translation. It's meant to imply someone horny. Pervert is definitely the most appropriate translation, though, while "exciting" is clearly refering to arousal.

Talk of exciting horny pervets aside, new page is up.

Hmm, looks to me like our first fight that will last more than a couple pages! Since they started with the obligatory "An arrogant Cell underestimates his opponent" thing.
Not a problem.

I don't think he was underestimating so much as testing his strength, like when USSJ Vegeta let Cell punch him in the manga.

Well to me, I'd take that as underestimating due to arrogance. How does he know that Dabura isn't just hiding his power? By giving him that free shot, Dabura could rapidly power up while charging at him and blow him to pieces or something. I would test someone's strength by simply fighting them.

This just comes from a long running thing of mine of I've always wanted to see: someone let their opponent attack them, then realize at the last second they really underestimated them and get annihilated. Like that Cell Jr and Vegeta's Final Flash that has been talked about elsewhere. If that Cell Jr had just stood there and tried to block it, but was decimated because of his arrogance.
Not a problem.

Yeah, it seems that way to me too. It's classic DBZ "That was just a warm up" or "I was just testing how strong you really are" sort of thing. I got my fingers crossed for Cell, there was a time I really liked him has a villain.

This is a lot better than dragon ball AF by far.

I'm starting to agree mainly because the story isn't trying to be serious business. Toyable’s serious plot is making a turn for the...stupid. This story is sort of silly and fanwankish anyway which actually manages to help it in the long run. I just wish the fights were longer. I understand they want to progress with the rounds quickly and when you're drawing 3 pages of fighting it seems a lot longer then actually reading 3 pages of fighting but still it screws up the Dragonball feel slightly in my opinion.

I wonder if they would mind me downloading the pages and correcting the grammar for my own sake, not to redistribute them or anything but just so I can read it without going "wait...what?" every few pages.

Dragon ball Af is totally DBGT.
The fights can get better,but i enjoyed the fights specially Nail vs Reecom.
Uub is remarkable.
You can't forget that the fights in Toriyama's manga were a lot shorter than in the anime.
I believe that in the future the main fights will last longer.
I'm also interested to know how strong is that powerful namek warrior.

Dragon Ball Multiverse would be an amazing plot for a sparking-esque video game.

I remember read a few pages of this a few months ago and it did not caught my attention. However today I decided to read it and it is priceless. :lol: It is nothing serious just to read and take some good laughs of it.

Just do Random vs Random in Duel Mode and you've got it.

Well I meant as a story mode. With cutscenes, voice acting, and original characters.

I take it we'll get the obligatory "Dabura gasps as a damaged Cell regenerates" here. But, it'd be darned amusing if it turns out that was the battle. Of course, I'd like to see a longer fight though.
Not a problem.

It's so annoying that every time I check the site for updates I'm exactly 60 minutes early. :P

Personally I think the ast panel implies that Dabura missed. I bet Cell shunkan ido'd behind him (or at least moved superfast).

Is it just me or does the artwork look drastically different from not too long ago? Do you think they have been using a ringer these last few pages?

Looks consistent with the rest of the pages to me.

Seems I was right in that Cell was just testing Dabura's strength. Looks like this might be a quick match.
