Just so you know, despite disliking the possession I'm not in the camp of wanting you to re-write it so it can be changed. That's a little extreme.
That's what I mean. People might dislike the idea, but generally they're able to look past it.

Yeah re-writing isn't needed. Almost every story have something that someone doesn't like.

DB: Fortune Teller Baba Arc made everyone look weak besides Goku
DBZ: Goku getting taken out of action EVERY arc only to return with BIG power or a future power up
DBGT: GOKU TIME!

Besides Vegeta being taken over. Everything else is great. My 2nd favorite fanfic ever. That's right I hold this above DBM, DBNG, and the two AF(s). Great Job.

I have a question Makik_DBNA: You already said that the anime isn't canon (minus partially GT & Cooler). What about the guidebooks? Are they canon to your doujinshi? Also, is BoG canon?
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.

The guidebooks to DBZ are essentialy guides of both canon and non-canon material, so for the most part they are canon (some liberties are taken, granted). A number of minor things in Battle of Gods were altered (such as a mention of Tarble, as the Son Goku and His Friends Return movie is not canon to DBNA), but for the majority, Battle of Gods is considered canon.

When it comes to DBNA, I follow a similar modus operendi to Salagir in terms of DBM: "Everything EXCEPT the original manga can be altered or erased." Therefore, all events that occur in the original manga are completely unaltered, happening exactly as they appeared. With the exception of the first Cooler movie and Battle of Gods, all other movies in the DBZ and DB timelines did not occur. Cooler, Battle of Gods, and Dragon Ball GT, simply because they do not appear in the manga, are altered to my preferences, but still for the most part considered canon to DBNA.

Malik I was wondering if i could use your idea for a school sprite anime, also could you by chance make the characters you made into sprites. Thanks i'll for sure give you a lot of the credit. Thanks, :D

What's that?

DBNG(LostSoulzKGM on youtube) is my girlfriend's Fanfic based on a roleplay Kyram(Kyram911 on Youtube), Monkai(NYKMonkai 7 On youtube), and myself did while playing on a Byond. We stopped roleplaying around the Molecule Arc. I honestly didn't like the fanfic at first during season 1 but season 2 is awesome in terms of Plot, Character development, BGM, and editing. I'm bias towards it honestly. But I think it's nice. I've seen better editing in fanfics but the plot to me is what the best thing about it. COmpare to other youtube DBZ fanfics. Best my all time favorite fanfic is Spawlers Fear of Power Saga otherwise known as DBAX. But this is a close(New Age) is a close 2nd.

I'm not saying restart the entire story from the groundup, but you should just make things so Vegeta doesn't get possessed.

That's ok i am pretty good at making sprites but can I use your plot idea because I loved the story and your future sagas. Although, I might make alterations, I'll give you credit for the plot and the characters you made. If i get a good mark at school i might even put it on youtube, and give you all the credit you deserve. :thumbup:

So he basically had the same thing happen to him that happened to Semi-Perfect Cell when he went after Goku.
Why Dragon Ball Consistency in something such as power levels matter!

Similar, yes. Semi-Perfect Cell actually managed to take a swing at Goku before he zipped away. Aladjinn never got the chance.
