Official On-Going DBZ 2013 Movie Thread: "Battle of Gods"

[samuraix123]

Thanks guys! as always I should have known not even think about listening to ''Youtubers'' it's bad for your health

[Li'l Lemmy]

Fair guess, soulnova, but I'm pretty sure I have it, that it's based off of this Vegeta face:






Da Lemmy

And now a popular "Goku" twitter account is getting in on spreading the misinformation as well.

[Herms]

I've said this before, but I continue to be amused at the extremely unimaginative and derivative nature of these fan rumors, compared to all the batshit crazy stuff that's actually been confirmed. Oh, Super Saiyan 3 Vegeta? Super Saiyan 4 Goku again, but kinda sorta different? *Yawn*. Meanwhile in the real news we've got the Oracle Fish, Pilaf and co. turned into children, and one of the villains buying sushi from a Fuji TV announcer. You really couldn't make this up (well OK, Toriyama and Watanabe did, but you know what I mean).

[penguintruth]

I think I might start a rumor just to see if it pans out.

Super Saiyan... uh... Tarble! No, SSJ3 Tarble!

[Ryuman]

I'd photoshop something, but I'm afraid people would actually believe it. What a sad reality.

It will be funny to see their disappointment when they see that movie and none of the stuff they believed happens

[JeffJarrett]

Sparking! Omega

[Chuquita]

I'm so anxious for that list-of-Birusu's-powers to be translated from the chozenshuu. @_@
I hope there's some really fun and crazy stuff in that list.

The real stuff is so much weirder and cooler.

[soulnova]

Oh wow, the new interview and the info bits on the new guide seem really interesting!! I totally love it!

[Chuquita]

Just read the new Toriyama interview, Birusu is based off his pet cat! XD
That is fantastic.
What kind of havoc did this cat cause in real life to inspire this? XD

[Karasai]

He ate all of Toriyama's food.

Possible mild spoilers below? Maybe? ...


According to the Chōzenshū, "The Kaiōshin possess the power of “creation”" so I guess that means we won't see a single god of creation because all Kaioshin are apparently gods of creation. Supreme kai himself may not be physically strong like Goku and the bunch, which is why he was known to have great power in the Buu saga but apparently unable to stop Majin Buu... but his power does seem vast with the ability to create life, planets and stars. A different kind of grand power.

The book also seems to hint that Freeza was an agent of Birusu.

the God of Destruction destroys [them], but he does not act on Kaiōshin’s orders; he destroys according to his own individual judgment. Except, he is capricious, so he will destroy even an important world without a second thought, or when he finds it bothersome, let someone else act as an agent of destruction.

Possibly, not directly knowing it, but maybe he just lets Freeza do the dirty work aware of the fact that he is going to destroy a planet. Perhaps he rather enjoyed letting Freeza do his work for him and now he is just upset that his best "agent" has been destroyed by Goku so now he has to actually do something. I mean cats are lazy lol.

Also, he awakens after 39 years. So isn't that about how long ago it was that planet vegeta was destroyed at this point in the series? Meaning maybe he saw Freeza's handywork and just let him continue on doing his job?

I found all that information rather fascinating. This is why I love Toriyama so much, he knows how to be creative, more so then all those fans out there who ask for SSJ3 *insert saiyan name here* to appear or fusion of *insert two characters here*.

Shouldn't he be looking to fight Trunks? I mean sure Goku beat Feeza in hand to hand combat, also shattered his pride but he didn't kill him. Just something I been thinking about lol

Also it's interesting how the Oracle Fish predicted that a strong warrior, presumably Goku, would appear 39 years later, even though Goku should normally die from a heart virus before that amount of time. Apparently the Oracle Fish's prophetic visions account even for time traveling modifications.

[Chuquita]

I still kind of feel like Oraclefish may have made up her prediction to distract Birusu at the time, I could be wrong though.

They need to get ahold of Future Trunks because this is his fault lol

[DBZGTKOSDH]

Birusu isn't looking for the guy who killed Freeza, he is looking for the "chosen one" that the Oracle Fish talked about.

Haha. I was writing a wall of text until I realized just how fucked up the time travel in DB is. I'll just go with your explanation.
