Official On-Going DBZ 2013 Movie Thread: "Battle of Gods"

Just noticed something...



Dende shouldn't be a child by this point in the series. Seems they messed that up... again.

Hmmm... well... he does seem kinda young, but he still looked pretty young in the Buu saga.

[Nex Carnifex]

Crazy thought and it wouldn't happen, but just imagine if one of the other universes was One Piece.

You might be onto something lol, perhaps they are looking to connect all the Shonen franchises into one...

It would be. XD

I like that the multiverses in general give the gang the opportunity to traverse worlds as potentially big and wild as OP's.

I'm pretty sure that was an error. He was tall at one point in the Boo arc. Then he shrank. Check out how he looks when him and Mr.Satan are on Earth following that tall Boo around. He's taller.

[Nex Carnifex]

I thought he needed the power of all the pure-hearted saiyans?

Well, that's kind of what I'm waiting to find out. Does Goku need to fill those conditions again to use it? The way kei17 worded it...

“No. He gets back to normal SSJ, but he learnt the form's godlike feeling and can use SSJG's power.”

... Makes it seem like the power's available to him any time now, which would likewise "work" to explain his constant towering strength compared to most of the others in GT. Which was one of the worst things about GT. It's... a conundrum.

And by "just about everything" I meant aside from nigh-omnipotent gods of gods. As opposed to random space-dudes and giant worm-monsters and the like who gave him trouble in GT.

Before they fight Baby, you could just write it so Goku leaves mysteriously and Gohan, Uub, and Vegeta are tasked with defending Earth.

Yeah, he was older on the image used for his profile on the official website:

Should there be a thread specific for spoilers?

Minor adjustments (like Gohan being Super Saiyan already or switching around Pan and Bra's ages) to accommodate something is one thing. Rewriting an entire story arc is quite another.

[Gyt Kaliba]

So Pan is older than Bra. Guess Bulma gets pregnant soon then... I wouldn't mind if they were the same age after all.

Clearly Bra is conceived directly after the events of this movie, as Bulma shows her 'appreciation' for Vegeta's rage towards her getting hit.

[worldmonsters]

Maybe this movie explains the crossover between One Piece, Toriko and Dragon Ball XD

[Dorexx]

Maybe these universes are the universes of other series, such as One Piece.

[ForestEquilibrium]

I'd say an even bigger question is: Who rules over the multiverse? A single entity? Another set of Kaios? Toriyama himself?

The big 12 of Shonen Jump?

Well, there was some Daizenshuu or similar book quote that I saw Herms or SaiyaJedi post a while back, that said something about how 'the universe is rumored to have been made by a being known as Akira Toriyama, but nobody knows this for sure, not even him'. Obviously it's kind of a gag thing, but it could be done well enough if they wanted it to be. I'd be all for Toribot.

Also, on the other shows being the other universes thing, I was kind of half-joking when I suggested it, because I don't see it really going that way - but you never know, it could. It's going to be GREAT for speculation until we know for sure anyway.

Hmm...one of them could be Dr. Slump pretty legitimately though.

The big 12 of Shonen Jump?

1. Dragon Ball, 2. Yu Yu Hakusho, 3. Naruto, 4. Bleach, 5. One Piece, 6. Rurouni Kenshin, 7. Toriko. 8. Uhh...hmm. I can't recall any other really big and popular battle manga from Jump that could work conceivably.

[MagicBox]

That Dende thing is really, really weird. They come up with a brand new, older design for him to use on the official site, and then just... don't use it? Why plan for consistency and then abandon it?

Anyway, I just realized. Since we now know that apparently Pan is older than Bra, that would also confirm which year she was born in, correct? I know the GT Perfect Files or the Daizenshu or something gave her two different birth years by mistake (one before Pan, and one after).

[Chuquita]

OH! The bingo games! What are those?

[sailorspazz]

This thread is really getting *puts on sunglasses* BoGged down with new posts. YEEEEAAAAH

Loving the new information! It's really sweet that Vegeta gets a power boost from seeing his woman get bitch slapped. And I guess this movie does confirm that Pan is older than Bra...sure doesn't look that way in GT, but GT is irrelavent to this movie anyway. But Goten, Trunks and Marron sure look young if the movie takes place that long after the Boo saga...

How does the bingo game play out? Does Birusu do any funny cat-like stuff? What does Vegeta's silly dance look like?

[Gyt Kaliba]

OH! The bingo games! What are those?

Ack, I completely forgot about those!

Ooh, just had a revelation too - the 'One More Saiyan' thing from the soundtrack must have been talking about PAN. Which means it could conceivably be considered like...her theme or something. Oh man, I'm loving this.

Maybe the arc needs rewritten, kind of like the Super 17 arc needs to disappear, eh...

780 (Perfect Files) is the year given after that of Pan (779)
