I would've thought the initial news of Toriyama's direct involvement would've put it to rest...Saiyan Prince Vegeta wrote:I thought we were past it to be honest, but if someone hasn't been keeping up with the thread or seen the quote from Yusuke Watanabe I can understand why they would bring it up.
I mean, he was involved in Dragon Ball Online... not even deeply beyond character designs and story, and that completely retcons GT outright.
I was Thanos before the MCU existed!

He also seems to consider Battle of Gods as part of the story of the manga, given to the back-story he gave for Kaio's planet.Thanos wrote:I would've thought the initial news of Toriyama's direct involvement would've put it to rest...Saiyan Prince Vegeta wrote:I thought we were past it to be honest, but if someone hasn't been keeping up with the thread or seen the quote from Yusuke Watanabe I can understand why they would bring it up.
For me, the Kanzenban & Full Color manga, Dr. Slump manga (along with the Abale-chan one-shot), Neko Majin manga, Episode of Bardock manga, JSAT manga, Battle of Gods, DBOnline, Daizenshuu (2, 4, and manga info of 7), SEG, Kanzenban Guidebooks, Chozenshuu (1 & manga info of 4), and Toriyama's interviews compose my personal manga canon.
James Teal (Animerica 1996) wrote:When you think about it, there are a number of similarities between the Chinese-inspired Son Goku and that most American of superhero icons, Superman. Both are aliens sent to Earth shortly after birth to escape the destruction of their homeworlds; both possess super-strength, flight, super-speed, heightened senses and the ability to cast energy blasts. But the crucial difference between them lies not only in how they view the world, but in how the world views them.
Superman is, and always has been, a symbol for truth, justice, and upstanding moral fortitude–a role model and leader as much as a fighter. The more down-to-earth Goku has no illusions about being responsible for maintaining social order, or for setting some kind of moral example for the entire world. Goku is simply a martial artist who’s devoted his life toward perfecting his fighting skills and other abilities. Though never shy about risking his life to save either one person or the entire world, he just doesn’t believe that the balance of the world rests in any way on his shoulders, and he has no need to shape any part of it in his image. Goku is an idealist, and believes that there is some good in everyone, but he is unconcerned with the big picture of the world…unless it has to do with some kind of fight. Politics, society, law and order don’t have much bearing on his life, but he’s a man who knows right from wrong.

Re: Official On-Going DBZ 2013 Movie Thread: "Battle of Gods
I was thinking about the whole Mystic/Ultimate Gohan thing after re-watching those episodes recently. The kai says in the anime that he only needs to transform in a similar fashion as SSJ and then later on he says he doesn't "need" to transform. That must mean he still CAN transform into SSJ if he wants to. Perhaps in this battle the ultimate form is no good so he gives it a shot to see if it would do anything?
(or perhaps after being in boo something similar happened that negated the effect of it like how Vegetto returns to normal)

Re: Sun Wukong drawings
I would love to see nyoi-bo involved (even though I feel chances are extremely slim). I've always liked Goku's "Journey to the West" characteristics like nyoi-bo, his tail, and Kinto'un.
I really like this "Goku dressed as Wukong" outfit below, but I'd be open to new variations on it.
Also, covering up Goku's hair near-immediately renders him as a Dragon Quest character. XD

Excuse me for being silly, but is this true? 
Q7: Why is Kaiō’s planet so small?
A: The fact is, it was destroyed by the God of Destruction!!
It used to be so big that its diameter was about 100 times that of Kaiō’s current planet. Apart from the size it was completely the same as it is now, with nothing but grassy fields and roads. Kaiō-sama enjoyed his hobby, driving, but then one day Birusu, the God of Destruction, stopped by and they played a video game together (it was a car racing one). Birusu lost, and so the planet was destroyed by the peeved God of Destruction. Kaiō then took a large leftover fragment, whittled it down to a sphere, and built a road on it so that he could have fun driving there. This became Kaiō’s current planet.

Yes.
Vegeta: "Funny... I seem to recall Kakarot being fed the same information right before he transformed; the distinct look on your faces when he went Super Saiyan didn't exactly inspire confidence. One does not predict or calculate power like ours."

Soppa Saiyjins from Dorgou Ballru Zetto is my favorite transformation everah, especially when Trounksoru did it in front of Seru and when Bejita did it when he faced Jingonigen-hachigo. But for real, I use the FUNi pronunciation. - Soppa Saia People

Is your problem buffering? I had that too (and assumed it was my laptop, I guess it wasn't).
That big panning shot where Goku's on the ground and everyone's around him; that is interesting.

Yeah it was buffering but with a little patience I was able to see it.
-Notice how Gohan had black hair before being hit in the gut....
-I wonder what Uisu was saying to the cast? It might be revealing to the plot.
-Gotenks getting spanked!
