Wow, what a derp pose. Especially the waving hand. This figure is so off, even on his personality.

Also, those wallets look really cool, but that bad Engrish is just hilarious.

That reminds me of the FMA Brotherhood blooper reel, where Envy has transformed into a dog to track down Gluttony, and Wendy Powell says something like, "Reah, Rooby-Roo!" :lol:

I just read at db-z.com that Cinema Today has created a blank page that has supposedly to do with an unknown Dragonball movie.

We create blank pages on our site all the time, and occasionally even forget about them, and occasionally even forget about them AND make them live. That doesn't mean anything.

Seems to me like an example of wanting to post news that isn't actually worth posting about because it's not news... or anything.

Yeah, it's too early to call it news yet, but time will tell, I guess.

The true question here is: Did BoG reach the 3 billions goal?! 8)

This I'm really anxious to know. There's been nothing about Golden Week's BOG ticket sales in the 2ch thread so I'm wondering if it's even been posted anywhere at all. @_@

Maybe the bootleg is actually Birus' 100% power.

They...they...it looks as though they fell just short. :o Doesn't make too much difference though, it's close enough. :P

By the way, this Detective Conan movie is doing insanely well...better than Battle of Gods from what I can see. How often are movies for this series made and do they usually do this well?

EDIT: Just realized Detective Conan is showing on 344 screens, that's quite a few more than BOG so it probably makes a bit of difference.

Awww.. :(

Well, hm...it kinda mirrors Goku just not being strong enough to ultimately defeat Beerus in battle?

Maybe they can make up that extra 800,000 in dvd/blu-ray and merchandise sales?

Put a listing for a ssjg Goku figure on CDJapan, Shueisha. Please. *Wants to buy one.*


Re: Detective Conan

From what little I know of how Detective Conan does in Japan, it's a pretty popular franchise and it's often in the top 10 highest viewed animated programs on TV in Japan. I enjoy the manga and the only reason I dropped it was because of the length. I can't commit the shelf space to something that long.

Yeah, I remember watching it on Adult Swim and enjoying it, and when I researched it on the internet I found out how long it was! Ain't got the time to commit to something like that.

The movie been out since last March. I think the fans have seen it already, I hope the DVD & Blu-Ray sales can help it reach 30 million.

Guys... If you could read french, then you would have understood that they clearly say that it's certainly a ghost page...

I thought it was going to surpass 3 Billion Yen, so I'm a bit gutted. It isn't bad, and DB has always got that worldwide appeal to make up for it falling short. :)
