Yes that was funny. Actually, Dragon Ball has been released in France and immediatly became a huge phenomenon in 1988 (contrary to North America where Dragon Ball aired since 1998 after many tries according to wikipedia). That's why we were not really surprised to watch this news on big french TV channels. Indeed, they made some funny mistakes, such as the funny definition of the Kamehameha :lol: Even the pronunciation of Kamehameha by the journalist was weird :) But it was nice from them.

It is just now occuring to me that Super Saiyan God Gokuu has red eyebrows. Huh. They're so thin on the figure that they stood out!

So I guess the movie has already made over 1 billion yen.

Now the big question is if she'll have the legs to hit three million. The results for this coming weekend should be interesting. If not I'd say that kills the chance of having a higher-quality movie next go around. ~_~

Re: Baggie_Saiyan

I think that one was revealed to be from the daizenshuu cover-art for the carddass volume.

EDIT: Yeah, it's from the "Carddass Perfect File Part 2" cover.

These articles don't appear to say anything that hasn't already been posted, but I thought it might be nice to link it here anyway, especially since we know that CinemaToday is a reliable source:

Looks like this movie is still going strong. Keep snatching up those tickets Japan!

I really wanna see them make a profit on this movie. If I was in Japan I know I'd have bought a ticket/seen it by now. So many things about BOG have made me happy, I want it to succeed.

I did buy that magazine, and may be buying more merch, so that should count a bit (I hope).

Yep. We've been meaning to post about it on the site too, but family, work, and server things keep intervening....

Remember that increasingly-growing-super-tiny ssjg Goku art from several pages back?

The same artist (I'm pretty sure) just did one of Beerus and a female Uisu.

Way back when all we had was the poster; I really did think Uisu was female for a little while.
I am so, so happy that Beerus isn't that physically monstrous. It's an entertaining design, but I'm happy with what Toriyama decided on.

Wow, that is a huge difference. :lol: Broli would feel scrawny next to that incarnation of Beers.
I'm re-watching Dragon Ball GT in full on my blog. Check it out if you're interested in my thoughts on the series as I watch through it!

I really hope BOG makes more than Toei expected, even if it's only by a bit.
