Wha....?! Kai is way faster than Super. That shit's pacing is worse than Z's average pace.
Super so far hasn't had a battle that lasted nearly a dozen episodes like in Kai or Z.
But big battles are AWESOME! I don't know why people think it's bad to have long fights. Me personally I like my fights to be
1. involving skill
2. not be one sided....we've had enough of those...
3. Have length, because a fight like Goku vs Nappa doesn't stand out because it's over tooo quick. WAY to quick.

You know what this reminds me of?That audience from Goku and Krillin's fight in the 22nd Budokai.They were complaining the match "ended just when it was getting good" when Goku started moving FTE

I predict a lot of complaining, freaking out, raging, and fan-gushing. Sounds like a normal year to me.
Heroes come and go, but legends are forever.
60.
Rest in peace.

Exactly. People don't want 2 minute matches. Goku vs Frieza stands out for being so big and epic. The longer the fight, the more hits....and that's what the fights are, action. the more the better!

Goku vs Nappa is an awesome fight, if its long, it doesnt mean its good. All Tenkaichi Bukodais were awesome and most of the fights werent long.

I don't mean super long, I mean just long enough. Like Goku vs tien
goku vs chun
chun vs tien
krillin vs goku
those fights were great. Goku vs nappa is one man beating up a stronger guy because he's damage in a one sided fight that is boring next to many others in ball.

And besides Goku vs Freeza, none of the fights are that insanely long. And Goku vs Nappa is an awesome fight, it has a lot of cool parts, length doesnt determine quality.

I've got the question: why is so many of us expect another Dragon Ball Movie?
English is not my first language!
I'm still waiting for Dragon Ball in Super...

That and because Trunks' voice actor said there would be another one if RF did well.
July 9th 2018 will be remembered as the day Broly became canon.

BoG and F were super successful, it makes sense to keep the gravy train rolling on theatrical releases. I think another movie is a matter of when, not if. My only question is whether it will be "canon" like BoG and F, or a "side story" like the Z movies.
I'd love a movie where Gohan protects Earth from a new villain while everyone else is away for the tournament.

I hadn't even thought about the idea that you could do a whole story with Gohan since he's the only one that's still home on Earth!
Who would he have to dialogue-bounce-off of though that's also still on Earth? Mr. Satan?
Actually yes; I'd very likely watch that. XD If it's anything like their camaraderie in that recent Super slice-of-life ep.
On hiatus.

Question, would FUNI fans rather have DVD/BR Releases with just Subs and no dub so they can get Super faster or it would just not happen ever, cause If I am not mistaken FUNI has never released any product without the dub?
Big Green: Do whateveryoulike, Ghos

Well they released a few other non-db products sub only before (one of the shows was a about a girl wanted to sex her legit brother so you can see why they didn't dub that). So they're slowly releasing stuff sub only, but there is no way Super will be sub only no way at all, I'm sure even the hard core of sub fans would appreciate a dual release too considering that the sub releases aren't that much more cheaper.

A sub only Dragon Ball release will sell badly. No offense, but most Dragon Ball fans in the US are dub fans only. I seen people that refuse to watch DBZ without the Funimation voice cast. The Funimation voices are so iconic to many people. Not to mention most casual people like dubs over subs because you have people that hate watching things in subbed title.
