I think the same about the way Toriyama draws arms sometimes.
Show an example.

Almost everyone got reused animation in this episode, so why are you only getting on Basil?

Goku barely took a backseat in the Buu saga, at best he took a leisurely stroll round back while everyone else cried for him to come back.

Same reason you get on characters that get constant praise from certain individuals on this forum like Piccolo, Tien, or Krillin.

And to be the guy with the opinion most dislike. I don't normally do it, but I'm in the mood for it on this quiet rainy Sunday afternoon.

Nice try, but I have never got on Krillin or his fandom. No matter how bitter you are about it, Basil got a lot of scene time because Toei wanted him to. They could have easily recycled crap for Piccolo, but they didn't. In fact, they did recycle for Piccolo. His Special Beam Cannon was taking right out of the Resurrection 'F' Saga.

Heads up, all

I've created a thread over at this link detailing the various eliminations for the Tournament of Power.

Will be interesting to watch as things develop, and keep track of things.

Because he said SOME believe that it's fake. Don't be so rude.

What happens when a universe has all their fighters out? Did Grand Priest say anything about that can't remember? Is Zen-Oh gonna erase their universe as soon all their fighters drop or will he wait until the of the ToP? Reason I ask is I don't think it has sunk in for a lot of people yet and #98 title implies that one of the universes is in danger, I think say if U9 get all knocked out next ep and Zen-Oh erases their universe it'll shift the battle's focus as we know the likes of Goku don't care until death actually happens he is still caught up in the hype of it all.

That's like...one debatable example out of the 77 other remaining fighters he could use that move one, though. Plus someone (namely piccolo, who saw this work) could just...pick him up and through him out of the ring like he was before, whilst tenshinhan and the others deal with the rest.

Since the tourney's started, Tenshinhan's been the only one who could sense U4 has two hidden fighters and the only one (so far) who's (one of several) signature move has been effective (not that the latter didn't urk the shit out of me, but still)
The main issue is that if Piccolo goes head first toward Botamo, that would leave Roshi vulnerable for attacks.

Roshi still has the Mafuba and the electricity attack, but if he uses the Mafuba he will be completely worn out, and the electricity attack works only on people weaker than the likes of Tenshinhan, though the moment Roshi says he wants to deal with the female fighters, means he will be taken down by a female fighter(maybe Kale because Roshi would think he is a weakling).

Speaking of Tenshinhan, the moment he detects Damon, he will be done for.

What? I don't recall ever seeing Toriyama drawing bad arms. He has always been amazing at drawing bodies, and recently he has got even better in my opinion (see new designs for Super and the movies and his Dragon Quest designs)

I can't believe we haven't gotten any new character bios on the website or new art sheets. Any idea when we'll get 'em?

Boing probably hasn't bought the nex batches of episodes or they don't intend to. The distributor is already distributing the entire FT arc and since Portugal starts dubbing it today and since it's the same distributor for Spain and Portugal. You'll either have to wait a bit longer or, worst case scenario, you better not wait at all.
I'm just a DB fan that's in the grey area that exists between an Hardcore Fanboy and a Casual :P

That card is the pose of SSJB Goku in the current Goku Black arc in the manga. They recolored his hair and used an official cards background.

I'm beginning to be afraid because super's time slot has been changed and now it airs even later. That's what happened to dragon ball Z and One Piece before boing stopped airing them.

It's not real, there's no such card in the game.
