I wonder when Dragon Ball Heroes will be adapted for anime?

[Hellspawn28]

I think we will see another new DB show. I doubt GT will be the last Dragon Ball show forever. Dragon Ball Heroes would be one big toy commercial, both Toei and Bandai love making money off of toys. That's why the newer Super Sentai and Kamen Rider shows have been so toy gimmicky lately (Not saying that they are bad since I really like Wizard at the moment).

[DBZGTKOSDH]

I would prefer a DBO anime adaptation rather than a DBH anime adaptation of the manga. I don't like the manga that much, but it is at least interesting.

I'm surprised there isn't a Special/OVA for Heroes, unless you count Episode of Bardock.

Yeah, it seems ripe for a magazine pack-in deal like we have been seeing with a few other titles recently. Maybe if Victory Mission gets a collected volume release a twenty minute OVA would be released as part of a limited edition release?

[Ringworm128]

But it's a horrible, unwatchable show for anyone with a pulse.

DBZ is an action show. Not a show about kids standing around activating trap cards. I'm pretty sure I'd watch DBE before I'd watch a show where Generic Saiyan Child stands around summoning Exodia to fight Super Saiyan 9 Bardock.

Well a show is about the characters and story not the action, I read the first Volume of Yu Gi Oh and it left a bigger impression then the first volume of DB. And the card games can be fun to watch, Yugi being on his last life points while his opponent has a super powerful card during an important match can be just as suspenseful as Goku trying to charge the Genki Dama to beat Freeza. And it's even cooler in episodes like the one where Bakura turns the characters into their own cards and makes them fight the battle themselves.

Any conflict that can be solved by simply swiping the other player's cards when they aren't looking isn't worth writing a TV show about.

Where are the stakes?

Here's an idea for a show: Marbles. Kids playing marbles. Or Pogs! Let's bring back Pogs, make a show called FIGHTING MILK CAP WARRIORS.

Ryo Horikawa as a slammer.

Where are the stakes in the 21st Budokai?

Getting a terrible beating.

As opposed to, "Aw, I lost a card game. Oh wait, card games are for simpletons! Guess I'll go live my life instead of continuing this dumb crap!"

[TheGmGoken]

I pray this show don't become a anime. I hate the plot so much. The trailers we see are making "Hero"(Forgot his manga name) more oped than GT GOKU. That's saying a lot. I don't like all these What-ifs to be honest. I enjoy DB what ifs but this is going to far.

Have you actually watched this show?

[Saiga]

Getting a terrible beating.

Except nobody gets terribly beaten and nobody is worried about that.

Stakes are not always necessary for an interesting story.

They could be playing the card game to get something they need, for example Yugi's grandpa is kidnapped by Pegases and Yugi has to enter a tournament in order to get into Pegases's castle in order to get his grandpa back. So he has to win the card games otherwise he could never see his grandpa again.

[penguintruth]

How about Lawn Dominator Ryouta, the story of a young man who made a vow to his dying groundskeeper grandfather to mow every lawn in the world?

Kageyama Hinorobu sings the OP and ED. Kappei Yamaguchi stars. Sponsored by John Deere.

The first arc ends with an earthshaking episode where a skate gets caught in Ryouta's mower blades and he's forced to use a traditional mower. Yoko Kanno scores.

My point is IT'S F***ING CARDS, WHO CARES?

[Ringworm128]

It could work if you added other plot elements such as him dating a girl or him possibly not being able to mow lawns due to various reasons. Just like how Yu Gi Oh mixes elements like friendship in along with stuff like Yugi's grandpa being kidnapped which puts stakes behind the card games. It isn't just them standing around playing card games during their lunch breaks just like how DBZ isn't just people fighting.

[penguintruth]

All the thrills of Phineas and Ferb, but without the pretentions of plot.

[DragonBalllKaiHD]

No. I don't like the idea of card games adapting into an anime. It's downgrading the franchise. It will be bombed big time if they do that. Dragon Ball is not Yu-Gi-OH!. They have a better chance of making GT popular than Dragon Ball Hero.

[Ringworm128]

How is Yugi trying to get his grandpa back not plot? How is Yugi becoming friends with his bullies not plot? How is Malik trying to kill Yugi not plot?

Last I heard DBH is doing pretty well so a series could be profitable.

I can't speak for the sequel series (because they are exactly that crap), but original Yugioh had that whole "the Egyptian Gods are real/copying Ancient Egyptian magic that you don't know anything about and turning it into a mass-produced kid's game turns out to be a very bad idea!" backdrop, remember? Heart weighed against a feather, soul stealing, scarabs eating your brains, eternal damnation, all that fun stuff.

I was fond of the duel where if Yugi lost, then his legs got cut off. But I guess that's not intense enough for some people.

[penguintruth]

It's still kids playing a card game. That's like a show about putting together a jigsaw puzzle.
