I'm happy I plunked down the cash for the BoG Blu-Ray, but it'll take about 2 weeks to get to my mailbox. :(

Sadly, I'm sure rips/subs will pop up less than a day after the Japanese street date. Better be on the lookout, Toei/FUNimation...

Huh, that new poster that Avenged posted kinda reminds me of the original promo we got for the movie. The one from way before we knew anything about Super Saiyan God, or God of Destruction, or anything at all other than a movie was coming. It ended with a zoom-in and pan-around of Goku.

I don't think the poster is an actual shot from that promo, but it reminded me of it anyway.

Where did you order it from? I ordered from Amazon Japan and it says it'll get here by the Sunday after it comes out or the Wednesday after. CD Japan even has a shipping method that only takes a few days.

I mean, you're pretty open about looking at cartoon porn. Why would you do that? It's fiction. The proportions of these women are not possible to reach in reality.

You got me. I double checked the CDJapan order and I paid for FedEx International Priority shipping, so I will end up getting it by the end of the week when it ships. I don't know where I got the two weeks from.

I thought so. Goku's outfit is from the Namek/Freeza arc. Skinny belt, Boot lining and lace colors are swapped. And Bills/Birus/Beers/Idgaf looks too sharp compared to the pillar he's standing on.

Just came to think about it what if saiyan god is false saiyan god, since all seven saiyans have to be super saiyans and pan was not. :think:
"There are many types of monsters that scare me: Monsters who cause troubles without showing themselves, monsters who abduct children, monsters who devour dreams, monsters who suck blood… and then, monsters who tell nothing but lies. Lying monsters are a real nuisance: They are much more cunning than others: They pose as humans even though they have no understanding of the human heart; they eat even though they’ve never experienced hunger; they study even though they have no interest in academics; they seek friendship even though they do not know how to love. If I were to encounter such monsters, I would likely be eaten by them… because in truth, I am that monster."

In that case, imo, full power ssjg would grant a special outfit to go along with the power-up. (Much like how ssj4 has its own.)

Shen Long does not state that they need to be Super Saiyan. The Saiyans all simply chose to use Super Saiyan for the sequence.

No.

From what we are told, Super Saiyan is not required. They probably used Super Saiyan because they would give more power to Goku. And as for why Goku wasn't Super Saiyan 3, Vegeta wasn't Super Saiyan 2 and Gohan wasn't Ultimate, they probably didn't use these forms because they make them more angry and merciless, while Super Saiyan doesn't affect their personality, since they have all master it, and Super Saiyan God requires righteous Saiyans.
James Teal (Animerica 1996) wrote:When you think about it, there are a number of similarities between the Chinese-inspired Son Goku and that most American of superhero icons, Superman. Both are aliens sent to Earth shortly after birth to escape the destruction of their homeworlds; both possess super-strength, flight, super-speed, heightened senses and the ability to cast energy blasts. But the crucial difference between them lies not only in how they view the world, but in how the world views them.

Superman is, and always has been, a symbol for truth, justice, and upstanding moral fortitude–a role model and leader as much as a fighter. The more down-to-earth Goku has no illusions about being responsible for maintaining social order, or for setting some kind of moral example for the entire world. Goku is simply a martial artist who’s devoted his life toward perfecting his fighting skills and other abilities. Though never shy about risking his life to save either one person or the entire world, he just doesn’t believe that the balance of the world rests in any way on his shoulders, and he has no need to shape any part of it in his image. Goku is an idealist, and believes that there is some good in everyone, but he is unconcerned with the big picture of the world…unless it has to do with some kind of fight. Politics, society, law and order don’t have much bearing on his life, but he’s a man who knows right from wrong.
