Jenemba, buddy. What the fuck happened to you!?

A bit too Garlic Jr. looking for my taste, but I kinda appreciate the stylistic choice behind the design of the transformation.

The fact that he's making money out of tracing other people's work is disgusting.

Not really a fan of the way you said it but not really against it either..
I know how hard the original creators worked.. and it's sad someone getting praise by tracing their work..

But when this is in YouTube, I prefer to think it will reach the social media and thus somehow to toie..
See where I am going with this..

Hum, I find it a bit overdone to be honest, if only the design was a bit simpler and not so shiny. But yes, I would love Piccolo to achieve a similar realm of power in Super.

Agreed.

I love Piccolo myself and this is not something I wanna see for him. The animation is just replicated horribly with added effects. Half of this thing wasn't even animated by the guy. It's mostly just added effects and filters. Nothing original. I can't believe people are comparing it to Super, not to mention the original.

Not agreed, unless they claim that it is all original artwork.

If they don't claim something like that, then it's not functionally different from a fan-parody like DBZ abridged which uses a lot of the original artwork, or even youtubers doing "let's plays".

As for the video itself, it seemed too "edgy" for me.

DBZ Abridged doesn't profit directly from the footage itself. This does.

That video has a lot of views so I do think the dragon ball fanbase want Piccolo to get a namekian god form.

With donations? Teamfourstar is on patreon, you know.

Teamfourstar could have chosen to do DBZ abridged entirely with original artwork, but they chose to use the footage from the anime instead. This guy could also have chosen to use entirely original artwork, but he chose to use existing artwork and edit it.

As far as I know, both take the existing footage/artwork and use it to create their stuff and both take donations. Teamfourstar being much better at it, putting much more work on it and having much more talent doesn't really change that fact. The only relevant, real difference is that one is a parody and the other is not. In terms of how much they benefit from it, almost surely Teamfourstar benefits much more than this guy.

So, yeah, to me, the only real problem is if he claims a lie to be true, aka if he claims that it's all original artwork. Other than that, functionally, it's still using the original footage to create something in both cases.

Oh man... Recolored Janemba... SSB Gohan... Over the top design... And, what the hell is that voice?

I'm sorry, but this is as edgy as you can get (for the lack of a better word.) This is Dragon Ball AF-level stuff.

The tracing is a problem, as always when it comes to MaSTAR Media, seriously, half of those shots are traced from the Broly movie. The effects are waayyy too flashy, and Piccolo's transformation just... ugh.

His voice goes so deep you could literally go to China and just sounds lifeless, not badass. The design is something not even Heroes would dare to make, it really should tone down the effects.

Just when I thought Goku vs Saitama was the bottom of the barrel... :roll:
stay edgy

You see, I kind of hate the word cringey, but that is basically the only word I can think of to describe this. Watching piccolo turn blue and orange with the camera shaking at nauseum and SSJB Gohan, a zebra looking motherfucker and Goku in the background was terrible. Literally half of the video was 3 frames of Piccolo screaming with camera shake and a weird edgy Janemba thing looking at him. Not to mention the "anime wars" logo, which seemed to be this guy's way of getting even more fanbases to watch. I wouldn't even care about these videos that much, but the fact that he's taken credit for other's work numerous times and tries to act like an animation aficionado annoys me to no end.

Its kind of an ugly looking form to be honest. As awesome as it would be for Piccolo to be able to keep up with our main characters again, I don't think a transformation is the way to go. Especially not this weird looking monster thing. I haven't seen a lot of this guys stuff do to him being kind of sketchy. But I've seen a few shots here and there and he really seems to value the Body/Face tattoos in his "original" forms.

Obviously, Piccolo's a popular character. I don't like him that much but wouldn't mind a power up

It's cute, I guess. Nothing in it appeals to me.

I prefer the idea of the red eye state from DBO and Heroes being a God form or transformation for Piccolo
When someone tells you, "Don't present your opinion as fact," what they're actually saying is, "Don't present your opinion with any conviction. Because I don't like your opinion, and I want to be able to dismiss it as easily as possible." Don't fall for it.

I'm not a fan of the designs and the way this is made, but it does bring up the idea that Piccolo being relevant again would awaken a sleeping part of the fanbase.

Either that, or the fans would just be screaming on how unoriginal, fanfiction-y and bullshit it is (No matter if it makes sense or not).

If you like the Black arc, you lose any right at hating something because it's"fanfiction-y"
