I don't really like the story of this thing, the character designs and the art style, but the fight with the fast flying and punching everywhere was pretty nicely done. Better than in any of the official Dragonball animations I've seen. TMarco Polo wrote:Even with its flaws, Dragon Ball Multiverse is so much better than this... thing...

Re: Absolon EP 2
As far as story, writting, dialogue, animation and character designs go...this isn't even worth a footnote.
The pre-fight talk between Goten and Trunks was so bad and poorly written that it went full circle to hilarious and terrible again.

Re: Absolon EP 2
...See, the comments here are why I go to Kanzenshuu. It seems to be the only truly sane Dragon Ball community.
Here's some other gems:
Just interminable. There's a certain level of pretentiousness to this--mainly with the opening animation/music... which is just cringe worthy. The animation is good in some ways, but there's just something really awkward about it a lot. Other than that, as others have said, it's like a fanfic... except a lot of them are better than this. This is kind of incoherent.
Here's some other gems:
this is waay better than DBZ. I didnt even like DBZ but this... this is amazing
great story, very interresting fighting styles
Epic billion times better than GT
that was freaking awesome! at least as good as the original series
Everybody should go do something to promote Dragon Ball Absalon. This needs to be bigger.
And my favorite:This is great! What DBGT should have been. Wish this was a full 30 min but I know how hard it is to make. Hope this becomes official so you can get your money. Great job! Can't wait for episode 3!
Try to get this to fun animation

Despite everything I've said I do kind of like the main villain.

What the hell is an "Absalon" anyway?

That's precisely why ordinary men pursue the concept of perfection, it's infatuation. But ultimately I have to ask myself "What is the true meaning of being perfect?" and the answer I came up with was nothing. Not one thing. The truth of the matter is I despise perfection! If something is truly perfect, that's IT! The bottom line becomes there is no room for imagination! No space for intelligence or ability or improvement! Do you understand? To men of science like us, perfection is a dead end, a condition of hopelessness. Always strive to be better than anything that came before you but not perfect! Scientist's agonize over the attempt to achieve perfection! That's the kind of creatures we are! We take joy in trying to exceed our grasp, in trying to reach for something that in the end, we have to admit may in fact be unreachable!"

It was probably just used/made up because he thought it sounded cool.

Re: Absolon EP 2
Well, Absalom is the name of a son of David who rebelled, as told in the Bible, so I always assumed the name came from that, although I could be wrong.
Do you follow the most comprehensive and entertaining Dragon Ball analysis series on YouTube? If you do, you're smart and awesome and fairly attractive. If not, see what all the fuss is about without even having to leave Kanzenshuu:

Yup. It takes quite an amount of pretentiousness to not put a Mary Sue character into one's fanfic, but instead an entire Mary Sue continent. Seriously, Latin America on the DB planet...Thanos wrote:Just interminable. There's a certain level of pretentiousness to this--mainly with the opening animation/music... which is just cringe worthy.

Re: Absolon EP 2
That form Goku goes in at the end of the opening looks just like what some people thought might be a new SSJ form or SSJG (I can't remember if it was before SSJG was revealed) in BOG.
Re: Absolon EP 2
There are soo many scenes in this animation that looks absolutely terrible. It's very important for an animator to know HOW TO FUCKING DRAW key frames. Not every frame of animation has to be perfect, but my god, the art is so bad at times that it's hard to watch.
Re: Absolon EP 2
One of the villains mentioned the "Absalonians" in this episode, so I guess they will be the main villains or something.Gonstead wrote:What the hell is an "Absalon" anyway?
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!

Re: Absolon EP 2
The problem is anatomy. All the characters' figures look bulky and odd. Big torsos, low shoulders, just weirdness. Even so, DBZ isn't that hard to draw, making a still face should be easy enough... not so much here.Scarz wrote:There are soo many scenes in this animation that looks absolutely terrible.

Re: Absolon EP 2
Fans say this is canon and a true sequel to DBZ yet they say DBGT is non canon. WELL FUCK LOGIC =/.
The plot is bad I can already tell. Animations looks good for a fanfic but damn the character design is JUST FUCKING AWFUL! Oob and Pan's kid is ugly not going to lie. I have a feeling this goes by the Funimation dub with a mixture of Dragonball AF(all 50 versions combine). Why is everyone all jacked....so unrealistic.

Re: Absolon EP 2
Not this overly the top jacked. Goten(adult_ nor Trunks were NEVER this jacked. Hell Goku isn't really jacked as in big. He small jacked.Dr. Machismo wrote:Every male Z Fighter (sans Chaozu) has been jacked since the Saiyan saga.TheGmGoken wrote:Fans say this is canon and a true sequel to DBZ yet they say DBGT is non canon.

I think you mean chiseled. That's the term for a guy who is muscular, but not jacked or roid raged.TheGmGoken wrote:

Most are just chiseled and not that muscular. Dende being jacked is ridiculous, he never fights or does any training.TheGmGoken wrote:Thanks. Could't find the word.dbzfan7 wrote:I think you mean chiseled. That's the term for a guy who is muscular, but not jacked or roid raged.TheGmGoken wrote:

The main problem is his voice, he sounds like a cross between Scott McNeils Piccolo and Chis Sabat's. Dende should NOT sound like that.

Re: Absolon EP 2
Someone please link this forum topic to the creator because when I pointed out some of the flaws in his project he reacted like I murdered a family member. Seriously its like this project has brainwashed its audience into thinking this to be blunt, crap is the best thing to happen to Dragon Ball.
