Re: Fanmanga - DB Multiverse
Man, I originally thought Dragon Ball Multiverse was something interesting and different compare to all the fan comics about the series. In the end, it turns out just like the rest, but it urks me how egoistical the author is. He likes to ride on GT about having inconsistencies and such, when the comic itself is loaded with these. The specials are pitiful, the artwork is god-awful, and the way he handle the characters is downright horrible. And basically trying to distort a character's personality to do an out of character moment (Vegeta training Gohan) and said "Whether you like it or not" shows the ego is strong within this guy. I've tried to pick up back to the comic, but the manga is so awful that I've literally gave up on it.

Re: Fanmanga - DB Multiverse
It's a shame, really, because this comic had the potential to be sooooooo good. The art is great (usually), the premise is great, there are some pretty good moments, some of the universes really interesting... but Salagir manages to screw it all up with badly placed filler, poor pacing, Cold wank, Broly wank, canon defilement, plotholes, pointless universes, wasted potential (honestly? The reason I started reading this comic was because I heard Dabura, Cooler, and Old Man Krillin were in it, and look how that turned out), extremely weird power scaling, abysmal specials, Mary Sue OCs, poorly translated dialogue, crazy fan theories he tries to force on the universes, and just a poor handling of the story in general. It just makes me wish a more competent writer was behind this, or at the very least that one was reigning in Salagir. He's not an abysmal writer, but he just cannot pace a story and his fanboyism and "fuck canon, I know best" attitude ruins the whole thing.
Semi-related: I just realized that the Cold wank wasn't even needed. Cold's opponents are easily weak enough to be beaten by the canon Cold (though you may have to un-haxx one of them). Like I said earlier, canon Cold would actually be a better match for U3 Bardock than the Salagir-haxxed one. Unless Salagir wants to ignore his own novelization, his own comic, and the manga itself just to haxx Bardock. But I doubt that.
But all that aside... you gotta love Zen Buu! Dude's basically Super Buu + Infinity. He's the only one in the tournament who's a match for Vegetto and is basically the physical embodiment of a whole universe. He's pretty much a god. That's cool. And you gotta love his personality; cocky and diabolical like Super Buu, but with more reserve and class. He's basically the only reason I'm still reading.

Like with Freeza, where he starts off over 10 times stronger than all his henchmen except Ginyu (because...well, just because), then we find out he can transform and get even more powerful, and then he reveals he can transform two more times, before finally coming out with the fact that he hasn't even been using anywhere near 50% of his power. Oh, and he can survive in the vacuum of space. All this stuff is just presented as the way Freeza is, without even an attempt at rationalizing it, yet the tone dictates we're supposed to take all this silly grasping at straws as thrilling danger. So I guess I don't really take the power inflation in the Boo arc seriously, but I don't take the power inflation in earlier arcs seriously either, so there's no net loss of seriousness. I think a silly story presented as serious is harder to accept than a silly story presented as silly.
Re: Fanmanga - DB Multiverse
Yeah, honestly I'm interested in a few characters but from what we've seen I feel that he will fuck them all up. Zen Buu is an obvious one, the Super Namekian can be interesting if handled well and then there is Cell too. Arale and Z have good potential if handled well.
As you can see, all of them need to be handled well, which is something that Salagir has proven to not be able to do.

The rage is strong in this topic. Bro tip: if you don't like a fanfic, just don't spend 600 pages following it and dissing it. No one's forcing you. Things like calling the creator an 'asshole' is way excessive.

Re: Fanmanga - DB Multiverse
On topic of the last page, am I the only one finding it a bit ironic, the Vegeta/Gohan thing aside, that Gohan's planning to be 'more ruthless' to avoid Babidi trying the same mind-control on him? I'm sure what he actually means is just being ruthless and finishing this fast, but...that...still seems counter-productive and more likely to make him actually controlled.

Re: Fanmanga - DB Multiverse
I started losing interest in this during that outrageously long Bardock special and it just ended up going down from there. The normal chapters are good imo but like every one else the specials are unbearable especially once Gogeta Jr. left and they went back to releasing one page a week I was damn near done with this. Though I understand the situation at hand changing artist every chapter is going to be hard to deal with, when the quality of the art work is on a roller coaster.
It's not too late. One day, it will be.

He is kinda disrespecting Toryiyama's work in the way he does things so there is a reason to get mad at him.

There is no shame in calling an asshole an asshole. Refraining from doing so for the sake of "politeness" is why we have so many assholes running around thinking they're King Shit.

(Toei could care, regardless of the quality, because fanfics are copyright infringement, but whatever.)

It's not even a question of politeness, it's just that it's kinda pointless to spend so much energy insulting someone and commenting every single page of his fanfic when you could just ignore it like thousands other fanfics.Rocketman wrote:There is no shame in calling an asshole an asshole.

Also DBM was good to me to about the time Gogeta Jr left. I guess he was able hold Saligir back somewhat and now that he is gone things are running wild.

I've been pretty unhappy with a lot of the way things have turned out so far too, especially a lot of the recent decisions, but I still find some basic enjoyment in it, so...*shrug* I certainly wouldn't call it 'shat' upon (it's not DBE terribad or anything).

This is a forum, were we comment on stuff. Dragon Ball Multiverse exists, it's bad, we comment about it. Whether you like it or not. :D
Re: Fanmanga - DB Multiverse
I agree, while they are plenty of things in this special i don`t like/care (King Cold, Broly) there also are great characters i would love to see more backstory, like maniac Kakarotto (And I'm not talking about showing how he massacre people, but his inner struggle, when he had fun time with Kuririn)
