I don't understand the chicken-scratch, obviously, and various translators are only moderately helpful here, but it seems the next issue of V-Jump will be giving us a new, stronger version of a popular character. Be warned though, as much as some of us were wanting this, the actual art doesn't make much sense compared to every other one we've seen throughout the franchise...

"「Vジャンプ10月特大号(8月21日発売)ドラゴンボールヒーローズ応募者全員大サービス!!のカードで出現!! あのDBの大人気キャラがパワーアップ!?」という気になる穴が…

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.

No, it means no 1P vs 2P (vs 3P, etc).

[quote="DarkPrince_92"]
meh. I really wish they'd show more stuff at this point. :| I'm personally getting a bit tired of seeing the same saiyan saga or namek saga characters. Though i wonder if that scan mentions anything new(that we dont already know) in the text.

It could also be the only model they have made at the moment for the character. That's also Tenshinhan from the Cell Saga. He didn't have a sash in the Saiyan saga. He normally would just wear a shirt and then take it off before fighting.
...Wait what are you doing? Are you still reading this? I finished what I had to say, why don't you move on to the next post?

I'm guessing it's a bit of perspective. He's on a card being leaned against a wall. The legs are closer to us than his arms are.
It'd say it's just that his pants are baggy.

Left this thread because of how off topic this place got. Glad to see we are talking about BoZ again. Kind of. :D

I'd consider buying the game for the score alone if we finally keep the Kikuchi remixes. I know it's supposedly been confirmed, but I'm in too much shock to believe it. :roll: I'll believe it when there's footage of the US/European release on YouTube with it.

They wanna turn up hours late and steal the show from the pros who had to die for the name." - Yamcha (DBWTF: Z-Rap 3)

"Over saturation is easy. Just drag the slider to the right and there you are: instant interest. And certainly, the majority of the public likes saturated color images. In fact, if you want to quickly create a popular image, simply over saturate the colors and increase the contrast. While you may not achieve a sophisticated image, you will achieve an image that will please a less demanding audience." - Alain Briot
