I'm 100% convinced that the director hates Dragonball and just wants to tear down its legacy.

Fuck this show and everyone involved in it.

The animation staff is doing the best with the material they got, the problem is Toriyama's material in the first place. Daima exists because it's something Iyoku could push knowing he'd get Toriyama approval and favor (like Sandland) not something targeting any real audience outside of Toriyama. Iyoku needed to keep fostering favors to Toriyama because he onyl had control of Dragonball's rights with Capsule Corp due to Toriyama lending him that authority, so he had to make him happy.

Moving the story forward. Nobody used your argument when Z aired and arcs came one after another, instead of moving backwards. We could see Goten and Trunks becoming relevant or something, now they have to be turned into babies because we sure as heck know they amount to nothing in the pre-EoZ era.

The main cast has simply too many options for cheating death. It's not impossible to write around these problems but it can be hard unless you go full retard and make the villain into universal-multiversal scale. ToP is the only Super arc that did this well and that's something to admire(until they allowed the potara...)

The Tournament of Power was fucking garbage
>But Jiren vs Goku
Was 4 episodes in 30 episodes of shit. They treated it like a joke, remember when Goku yelled at 17 for trying to attack the other universe before they transformed so it would be "fair"
Remember when Krillin said "H-Hey that's dirty" to Freeza being the only one to take it seriously and knock out opponents whenever they crossed him
Remember how majority of the universes were so weak and irrelevant they got off screened most of the time and were reduced to background random ki blasts
Remember how Goku would just hold back because "I need to regain my energy after using UI" and then go fucking Super Saiyan Blue?
Remember how Tien wanted to be "honorable" when knocking out an opponent and suiciding himself along with them despite the fact that the universe is on the line
Remember how even after Universe 9 was wiped out and everyone saw this was serious they still acted flippant and joked around and didn't give a shit?
ToP is one of the worst fucking arcs in all of DB

kek it's nothing like that.
DBZtards need to accept their beloved franchise is now just sanitized kid-friendly slop for selling birthday and Christmas toys to brown third world kids.
DB Slopma is just fully pandering to that audience.
They don't care about making a good story or investing in animation, that shit doesn't sell. But turning DB into a Spongebob 2.0 to sell merch to kids, that shit makes billions.

It's not that good.
I have nothing against Daima in principle. But the jokes aren't as funny and bold as they used to be. Daima feels like a shy kid trying to crack a joke vs OG DB being the class clown chad going all out.
>>
>>273253896
False.
OG Dragon Ball's adventure took you places. Every new stop on Goku and Bulma was a brand new place with brand new sights with a brand new situation. Goku on Red Ribbon traveled the whole fucking entire world over and every place and every person he saw and met was different.
And between those adventures? There was fucking tournaments. Pure fighting. And on the adventure on every new place there was a new adversary for more fightan.
Meanwhile the Demon Realm just feels like Sandland 2.0. Just some ugly as shit poo colored wasteland. It's not interesting at all visually which is extremely grave. How do you make a place that's supposed to be all about magic look so drab?
You know what Daima it actually feels like? Like Dragon Quest, but worse. The Demon Realm just feels so "constructed" to be like an RPG-sort of world, but as I also mentioned, the place is simply not interesting or compelling, so even as "RPG World" it fails.
There's a reason why practically all the positive talk about Daima is "muh animation" and "muh lore", and I can't fault it, because those are by far and wide the most and only interesting things about Daima so far. And in all honesty it's pretty lame how we're coincidentally getting some crumb of lore every episode and then the conversation suddenly stops to then the next piece of lore to be infodumped next episode.

Depends on whether we're talking anime or manga then. Manga is fast.
>>
>>273253987
There are three worlds in the demon realm, each one looks different, the desert landscape we see now is just one of them amd looks good for me. However, you're right that nothing particularly interesting is happening. Goku destroys every opponent he encounters and Panzy is just a combination of Bulma and Pan. Only Glorio seems minimally interesting to me because he works in the shadows with one of the villains. The pace is also slow and the humor is pee poo poo tier.

I don't find Daima insulting like some SHITper arcs but it's just mediocre for now.
>>
The issue with Daima is that it's an (further) acknowledgment the franchise is unable to survive without Goku or Vegeta, they could easily have made the same story without embarassing baby characters and even using only original characters, it didn't even needed to be Dragon Ball related, though it's not a crime it is.

I'm sorry to say this, but no teenager or adult can enjoy this series, you may enjoy on another level beyond just entertainment, as a critical analysis of the franchise or tropes. And I'm inclined to believe they are failing to get little kids to care about a sequel to something they cannot relate to.

>>273253234
He didn't quote it 1:1 though, just the general idea, which makes sense if the idea was his in the first place. The Kai are genderless being born from trees, but all the actual detail from the databooks has actually been shoved aside (no apple form, they're fetus on the trees, no "Shinjin" or "Core" race name, rather than that it's Glint). It seems like exactly the same thing that happened to Bardock. He remembers some rough details and goes from there rather than actually matching up the existing material perfectly.

>>273255158
Anon, you have watched the series too, as the cast of characters grew, Goku's role in the story changed, he only shows up in Namek after the setup was done, same with the androids arc, Toriyama made him sick so he wouldn't be avaliable for the whole arc, in the buu arc you got both him and Vegeta sidelined until the very end.

You know why? Because their character roles are too well defined to be interesting anymore, one of the main issues Super faces is that every arc works around Goku and Vegeta and they are not interesting characters to work with, every arc feels like it's the same thing over and over.

Adult goku is not child goku anymore, no matter how much Toei keeps retardating him and now literally turning him into a child again, it's not working.
>>
>>273254104
DBZ was objectively peak Dragon ball and Bruce Faulconer's ost kicked ass you faggot
>>
>>273255413
And the series was worse for it
The moment Goku got sidelined after Saiyan Arc the series got worse
Namek had Vegeta to carry it in his absence but it cannot be understated how retarded everyone acts in the Android Arc to the point where the story STOPS until he wakes up and advanced the plot
>>
>>273253362
LMAO, what stakes? There were none because they could always use the Dragon Balls to revive everyone. The only part of the franchise that had actual stakes was GT because it took away the Dragon Balls as a "fix everything for free" button and you guys spent decades crying about that.

It's honestly dissonant to see Goku acting like he does in Daima when he's in like his mid-thirties now even if he's been turned into a kid.
Compared to Super Goku he's still the epitome of maturity, Super Goku would have gone SUGOI I WONDER WHAT KIND OF STRONG PEOPLE THERE WOULD BE IN THE DEMON REALM WAKU WAKU but here Goku's first priority and first thing he said was "we've gotta fucking save Dende" but really, literal fart jokes and uh oh stinky jokes? It just doesn't work even if Goku's been turned into a kid in terms of appearance because at the end of the day you know he's supposed to be a grown-ass.
>The issue with Daima is that it's an (further) acknowledgment the franchise is unable to survive without Goku or Vegeta, they could easily have made the same story without embarassing baby characters and even using only original characters
But yes, I wholeheartedly agree with this. It's why there's never gonna be something like a DBO anime, because an entire brand new cast of literally whos OCs, a brand new storyline without any ties to anyone or anything, won't sell at all, Dragon Ball cast became victims of their own popularity and so we're stuck on this eternal limbo where we're never allowed to move on. Hell, Daima being ANOTHER inter-quel is also a sign of how scared shitless they're from moving past EoZ. If they didn't have the balls to do it while Toriyama was alive I don't see it happening at all now that the dude's dead.
>>
Reminder, Dragon Ball has not had a single good piece of new canon content in 30 years.
>>
>>273255753
I mean, I don't disagree that would be missing the point, but so is Daima.

>>273255783
>If they didn't have the balls to do it while Toriyama was alive I don't see it happening at all now that the dude's dead.
The issue is that people want stronger opponents and transformations in DB, so progression is kind of required for that, and why Daima doesn't have much interest. They need to push for new because it's what the audience craves, not rehashing forms seen as "weaker" by now.
>>
>>273255723
I agree. But the issue is it also killed Dragon Ball because it never managed to evolve past that point. Cell Saga and Buu saga show that.

>>
>>273255874
The two primary reasons I think killed a lot of interest in Daima were it being yet another series set before EoZ and even worse set even before Super and turning the cast into kids plain and simply being too reminiscing of GT. Everything about how and why and why that happened may be different but at the end of the day people's minds will inevitably go to "GT did that, is Daima gonna be like GT?".
I really wish we'd seen people's reactions to Daima as it aired would have been had Toriyama not died. I'm willing to bet money that half the reason people defend it so staunchinly is because Toriyama went up and died so they feel obligated to defend it yes or yes just for that.

Buu was great and most of the Cell arc high points have nothing to do with Goku.
He simply works better as the arc finisher while everyone else develops throughout the arc and nothing else. Bejita/Gohan were interesting, but now that their character arcs finished and have solidified Toriyama refused to replace them with anybody.

Toriyama had a lot pent-up resentment towards his customer base. He was a gag mangaka first and foremost, but that didn’t sell well at all and DB nearly died with the Pilaf arc had it not been for the pivot into more martial arts action.
And because of both his editor(s) and the way the WSJ industry is cutthroat as hell, he had to keep ramping it up if he wanted to keep his job.
He knew people didn’t care about his poop jokes or transvestite garbage every week, and he could never just accept that. But once he came out of retirement he was given a free pass to do whatever he wanted thanks to his status as an industry icon, and that’s how we got Retardku in DBS and Shartku in Daima.
But whoops! Nobody actually liked that shit either, and Daima was uncared for even by Toei until the man keeled over dead.
Now Toei’s rushing to capitalize on “making a tribute to Toriyama” as evidenced by that lazily cobbled together OP, and third worlders are eating it up. Not many, mind you, Daima’s still flopping everywhere and even youtubers who make their living off talking about Dragon Ball don’t get the viewersship they used to talking about Daima.
TL;DR Toriyama was a bitter, rotting geriatric and his latest attempt to go back to le funny babby gagshit didn’t work, just like the last several times it didn’t work.

Daima doesn’t even have sex jokes and they got it out of the way immediately that Panzy is actually a hag so that the normalfags would feel a bit more comfortable having her around.
There’s also no ancient wuxia chinese mysticism or martial arts reminiscent of 70s movies. It’s all just isekai bar fights or magic fagging in the desert or caves like it’s Mushoku Tensei.
And to top it off they integrated that senile ramblings from some interview that all Kais are apparently genderless they/them nonsense.

I think that's the problem with Daima: the series acts as if Goku's entire character development has been reset and he's back to being a kid who lives alone in the mountains and knows nothing about the world and how things works.
Part of Dragon Ball was seeing Goku learning concepts. Keyword: LEARNING. Goku learns quickly, that was a characteristic he had in the original Dragon Ball.
Daima acts like he's plain stupid, not just country bumpkin.
>>
>>273256911
>Goku not knowing what a word means because he's a ten years old hermit means he never bathed before
You're dumber than Super's Tardku.
>>
>>273256911
Because he LEARNED what a Bath is in the beginning, so there's no reason he wouldn't know what a bath is for the rest of the series?
Like I said, are you retarded for wanting a character to go back to things they learned in the original series?
>>
>>273256814
Genderless species are already and established thing in universe. You just let political mindrot give you trannyphobia. Kais being like namekians isn't a big deal.
>>
>>273252951
Did people just forget that Daima was made to celebrate Dragon Ball's 40th anniversary? OG Dragon Ball not Z, GT, or Super? And that Toriyama has always been a comedy author at heart?
>>
>>273256927
TARDku has been an issue since arguably BoG where he unlearned everything about there's always someone better out there and acted like a cocky retard towards Beerus just to get oneshot.
Toriyama's butthurt over Superhero Goku causing him to constantly regress Goku as a character and constantly portraying him as badly by making him as dumb and uncaring as possible was a curse.
I can only hope that this will stop now that he fucking died.

Yeah no shit he'd never had a modern house bath before.

There is nothing funny about Daima so far, everything is ultra serious with Goku throwing some shart jokes and characters doing wacky faces for everything. And I liked Dr Slump, for that matter.
>>
>>273256582
I'm a spic and I find Daima to be rather middling.
I enjoy the little bits of lore and the animation but there's only so much that can carry the series.
Anyone trying to dismiss any Daima criticism with hurr burger durr spic is a retard. And I say this as someone who fucking loathes DB burger fans because of how much they parade their fanfic DB version as something to be praised about and even better than the actual series.

This is dumb. Early Namek is some of the best DB has ever gotten. And no, Vegeta didn't "carry" it, Krillin and Gohan having to deal with these monsters was great as well. Saiyans had some of the best parts when Goku was dead and everyone was fighting Nappa.

The issue isn't just having Goku as the MC. The issue is that we need GOKU and VEGETA and [third most popular character.... let's go with PICCOLO this time]. It's a fucking checklist. They will never make some Goku, Bulma, Oolong, Yamcha and Puar party again, because they need all the big names for the marketing.

True, but that's a consequence of modern times and not a Daima specific thing. But I agree, Tori humor does not work when it's done safe.
>>The plot goes nowhere.
They are in the Demon world going to their objective, what the fuck are you talking about? Should they be fighting the final boss at episode 6? They even showed the Tama for the PV for the next EP. Of all animated works, Daima probably has the best pacing in DB (OGDB manga is fast as fuck though).
>>Lore retcon
More lore is being built up rather than being retconned, and most of the lore is built off of multiple different DB series, including Super. No shit the first entry of DB is going to build shit up that literally doesn't exist, compared to the latest series 30 years later, what kind of a stupid argument is this?
>>Goku has no real challenges
Most of OGDB is Goku steamrolling everything, until he hits a wall that requires a power up, then continues to steamroll everything.
>>Even Krillin during the 21st Tenkaichi Budokai Arc challenged Goku by being more cunning than him.
They never fought in the 21st. In the next tourney, Goku literally has to hold back against him, what the fuck are you talking about?

Who cares about your hypotheticals? I'm talking about a race with clearly-defined females among its ranks being characterized as "genderless", while your defense was to refer to Namekians who have all been shown as males. Namekians and the kais are not at all the same, since the former at least has that excuse. But for kais it's way too late to backpedal on where they stand, since Daima and games like DBO/XV have shown female kais, both of which Toriyama designed. Though in the latter case not all were his, but the supreme kai of time is a character of his making.
>>
>>273257389
Some of his years old videos has less views, some has more. None of his view counts are ever consistent. Why are you like this? And more importantly, why do you care about anime tubers?

Namekians aren't all males. They are sexless and reproduce asexually.

An official guide book, made by the company licensing the Dragon Ball, made by the people that worked with Toriyama and had some of his input. Don't equate something like this to being some random fan canon. And even then, if you want to argue about canon, Kais were always shown to be male. Female Kai is Toei filler shit until Tori went and designed one for a game, so why is Toei not able to use their own lore in their own project?

The only thing I'm saying is that them being genderless has been established since 2009 and they are using that very same lore for Daima, and you crying about it like it's a new thing doesn't make sense. It's okay to admit you have no idea what you're talking about and just want to cry about trannies or whatever the fuck.

I just don't get it. If Toriyama wanted to go back to OG DB roots, why couldn't he just set the series in any of the 3 in-between tournament timeskips of OG DB?

It's not like he's doing anything particularly interesting with the current cast. Shin is a blank slate, he could have used Popo or Karin in his place. Bulma would be in it. Panzy and Glorio are new characters. Piccolo is in this period and he'd probably more interesting as DKP or Piccolo Jr (el nino). Vegeta is the only missing piece but he seems out of place in this story anyway.

All the fighting is back to OG levels, since opponents can't even fly or shoot Ki blasts.

I feel you could adapt the story into the times timeskip between DKP and the 23rd TB and it would work just fine. Better because there is no stupid reset.

Yes we do. This cast needs to breath. We've been eating Goku and Vegeta slop for the last 10 or 15 years. This is ridiculous. In truth Goku and Vegeta only truly teamed up during the Buu arc, it's a very small part of Dragon Ball.

You faggots are completely missing the point. It's not about this or that character specifically. It's about new fresh blood and not reproducing the same patterns over and over.
Look at the Buu arc. One of the highlights was Fat Buu and Satan, and the storydump made that clear. Satan almost carries the Buu arc. Super/Daima could never do that.

Enjoy your "Garlic Gun! You remember this? Now Trunks does it too!" slop.
Enjoy your "Makankosappo! You remember this? Piccolo will spam it everytime he has a fight!" slop
Enjoy redoing everything that used to be new and created on the go because MEMBER BERRIES

Heroes literally strokes every fucking checkbox in the "DBZ western starterpack". The only thing it could do next is fucking hire Bruce Falcouner to do the OST.
Yet when you bring this up and tell them to check it out, their first response is

And then they proceed to rave about how awesome Blue Hair Goku vs Pink Hair Evil Goku was.

>BUT GUYS, YOU CAN ONLY USE A CERTAIN TECHNIQUE ONCE EVER!!! IF YOU USE IT AGAIN THAT'S MUH NOSTALGIA PANDERING!!
The issue isn't reusing a technique a few times, the issue is a series that is fundamentally unable to move on and create new shit. Everything is callback. For Toriyama, Makankosappo was the new technique he thought of for this month's subplot. For DBS, it's the member berries and there wont be any new technique to think about.

It's because they think they're too good for non-Toriyama works. They have this obsession with canon, or at least the most vocal people do, so as soon as it's something comes out and it doesn't have Toriyama's name on it or he doesn't say "in an interview" that he made x character they want nothing to do with it. It doesn't matter how official it is or how good it is at being everything they want, they need that seal of approval from Toriyama.

This is why I don't mind Daima being its own thing. It's different from OG, that's different from Z, that's different from GT. Super tried to ape on Z and we got some of the worst fanfic tier shit possible. I'd rather they keep trying something new, instead of 60 more years of Z but horrible.

>>273259275
>We have never traveled the demon realm before or dedicated a story to rescuing one of the main characters (Dende)
Daima is slightly different from Super in the sense that it's less directly nostalgiabaiting and more of a wannabe RPG in anime form, so not all of the criticism still applies. But picking Vegeta and Piccolo is definitely retarded.
>Goku, Shin, Glorio, Panzy are pretty fine.
Kinda...? So far they've been pretty boring. The best are Glorio and Panzy. It's not great. But it could be worse.

We got God (red), Blue, Blue Kaioken, Blue++ for Vegeta, White, even fucking Purple. This is ridiculous. This is degeneration.

When Toriyama made Super Saiyan, it wasn't to sell some figs. It was a plot point. Everything led to that. Even if it sold toys or whatever, it felt organic. Now we need recolors because IT'S DRAGON BALL WE NEED THE TRANSFORMATIONS

I said this for years, they had a cast set up for a new generation of Dragon Ball, each of them retreads of their predecessors to an extent. If they absolutely need Goku, just give Goten his old hairstyle back and make him the leader of the group. GT's fatal mistake was not using Uub for the space expedition to really put him on the field to test his skills. You could bring in Goten, Bra and maybe Marron after that arc, but for all the hubbub with Goku training Uub, he really didn't get too many moments to shine.

Super isn't really trying to use these characters either and when they did, it was a fucking retread of Super Hero instead of a new arc that firmly established Goten and Trunks with Pan, Bra and Marron at their side along with Uub creeping in, signifying the final chapter coming near.

If they do a pure wipe of everything Super established going back to Battle of Gods, that would invalidate all the investment people put into the series and in order to keep the final chapter of the original manga intact, they have to do just that or pull an alternate timeline shtick which would also invalidate Super.

tl;dr GT already sent the series off despite its flaws, and Super the anime should have never happened, they should have just made more films in place of it.

That's exactly what I'm criticizing, anon. I'm saying Super and Daima are so fucking scared to change anything. Super particularly, Daima is at least kind of trying to do something new - BUT NOT TOO MUCH. We need the familiar faces, or else people wouldn't watch.

Let me ask you something.

Do you think we'll ever see a main villain being defeated like pic related, in Dragon Ball Super/Daima? A ragtag group of the last survivors, much weaker than he is? Who edge out a win thanks to gravity of all things?

I'll never happen again. The closest we got was Jiren's defeat, it wont go any further.

That's not really how things went down. Against the Saiyans, sure, but then it was up to Gohan, Krillin and Yajirobe to finish the fight. On Namek, they were waiting for Goku but they had to do a lot of things by themselves to stall and save the Dragon Balls. It was perfectly fine. Goku didn't hog the screentime in Z, not at all: in fact some people argue Gohan was the Z MC.

The fanbase is cancer
Writing for the fanbase is cancer

Dragon Ball is fucking poisoned because it's 2024 and we can't have Toriyama go "eh, guess what? I'll just completely change up my cast. Forget about the humans, I'll just have Satan step up here" or "let's start the Namek arc with just Gohan, Krillin and Vegeta while Goku is stuck on Earth". They just can't. People will whine.

People want familiarity, and Dragon Ball will never be able to be original and fresh again.

You're the same kind of person who would get excited about some asspull transformation exclusively for the humans that suddenly puts them on par with Goku and Vegeta but you probably throw a fit any time either of them gets a new form because it's not your shitty Yamcuck or Tenshithan.

I'll assure it's not because they thought Piccolo alone would be a massive guaranteed best seller.

It's sad that Dragon Ball became so corporate early on. It's clear Toriyama wanted to do other things and other ideas but the demand from the fans and the corporations that got their hands on the IP outweighed the man behind the IP. It's amazing how fast-paced the manga is and how it gets to the point while everything else about Dragon Ball is the exact opposite.

>>273259633
They need the opportunity to grow and develop, which they never got. That's the issue. If you aren't willing to take that risk, it'll never happen. You can't use GT as an argument either, they botched that one with de-aging Goku when they could have done things a lot differently. Dragon Ball always showed progression and new faces as it went on. How the fuck did everyone else but Toriyama miss that point completely?

Hot take, I wish Super Hero was a movie about Piccolo and Vegeta instead of Gohan
They would have had an interesting dynamic, maybe Goku is training Broly so that's why they're away. Piccolo doesn't want to disturb Gohan's peace and asks the next best thing for help in taking down this new Android threat.

Yes let's have VEGETA again for the 434th time (because he's marketable) and PICCOLO (because he's marketable) instead :)

Wait? You mean... because Vegeta and Piccolo are both serious we need to make Goku act like a retard to get some balance and it's stupid? Who cares? We got our Vegeta (Daima)® and Piccolo (Daima)® toy ready ;)

You're a fucking idiot. We need to use more of the cast. We've got dozens of characters. Bring Buu. Bring Satan. Bring Krillin. Hell, bring Videl. Or Launch. Bring literally anyone with personality so we can have interesting interactions that aren't the same shit we've been seeing for DECADES.

We could be seeing Goku and Krillin reminisce and their friendship. We could have some interesting Buu interactions with the majins. Maybe Satan could try to bullshit his way through the realm. Who knows? The possibilites are endless, you can make literally anything other than "Goku is silly, Vegeta is serious and wants to be le strong, Piccolo is also serious".

Yes, those are known as main characters. Do you understand what that means? Do you also screech about random background characters not being mains in books you read? Assuming you're even capable of reading.

Goku has always been a stupid goofball, he started as a country bumpkin who couldn't tell someone's gender without groping them. You haven't read/watched the original series.
>Bring Buu. Bring Satan. Bring Krillin. Hell, bring Videl. Or Launch.
There isn't a single character outside of possibly Buu that could work in a convincing and organic way in a plot that actually matters. You could do some shitty SoL mini arc that features most of those characters, but it wouldn't move the story forward. And before you start screaming "BUT IT SHOULD", there isn't a feasible way to move the story forward with characters that weak. This is Dragon Ball. It's battle shonen distilled to its purest form. The plot is driven forward based on power. If you don't like that then you're watching the wrong show.
>We could be seeing Goku and Krillin reminisce and their friendship.
Which is boring and unnecessary, because we've already seen their friendship, and they've already reminisced about it before, or did you not watch the anime lead-up episodes to the Cell Games?
>We could have some interesting Buu interactions with the majins.
This would work if Buu gave a shit and didn't have the mind of a childish retard. At beast you could have a sequence of Mr. Satan talking to them out of curiosity because he recognizes the term "Majin".
>Maybe Satan could try to bullshit his way through the realm. Who knows?
That's the point. You don't know, either. All you're doing is saying "WELL I DON'T KNOW HOW IT COULD BE BETTER BUT IT SUCKS", which is disingenuous.

It was so much worse than trash talk. He was actually trying to appeal to Frieza’s “good nature” and say he should leave and train some more, and maybe they can be sparring partners someday. It was as if the entire fight on Namek was deleted from his head.

The Z movie portrayals of Krillin vary from each film. Sometimes he’s a total joke character like in Dead Zone, Super Android 13, the first Broly movie or Bojack; other times he does one cool thing like in Lord Slug, Meta-Cooler and the second Broly movie. Krillin’s appearance in Bio-Broly is interesting since he plays a central role in defeating him.
>>
>>273260179
It's so bizarre that Super tried to paint Goku as this completely retarded brute and Vegeta as this martial art savant when in Z it's the complete opposite

Because Dragon Ball kept changing. Had Dragon Ball continued "organically" after Buu and by Toriyama you'd have more new characters and it wouldn't be the Goku and Vegeta show all over again. Because Toriyama doesn't write by rehashing what he made.
>Goku has always been a stupid goofball, he started as a country bumpkin who couldn't tell someone's gender without groping them. You haven't read/watched the original series.
Goku is 40 years old you fucking retard. Daima Goku doesn't behave like Z Goku or even kid Goku. He behaves like a weird toned down Superku, made more stupid for the sake of providing cheap comedy but not as stupid as Superku.
>There isn't a single character outside of possibly Buu that could work in a convincing and organic way in a plot that actually matters
Says who? Powerlevels are off the table in this verse. All that matters is PERSONALITY. We have dozens of characters with different personality and history. They could all provide with lots of new interesting stuff and a sense of SCALE. We could have the actual Dragon Ball universe feel big and enjoyable again instead of cycling through the same 3-4 characters over and over again because of corporate mandates.
>Which is boring and unnecessary, because we've already seen their friendship
I can't wait to see Vegeta say "I'm the only one who can beat you Kakarot! I'm the prince of all Saiyans" ;)
>That's the point. You don't know, either
I'm not the writer, nigger. I'm giving random shitty ideas I thought off while shitposting on the imageboard. I'm not supposed to one up the writers, I'm just showing that they could do many, MANY things infinitely more interesting than rehashing the same shit all over again.

If you faggots were around for Dragon Ball, Toriyama would have never done something as original and fresh. It would have never been able to reinvent itself. Fuck you.

It's not about powerlevels, faggot. It was never about them. They've been abolished long ago. Freeza was outclassed 5 arcs ago and now he's number one.

>>
>>273260586
Because Trunks' faults are justifiable and understandable.
He came from a post-apocalyptic hellhole and all he learned was from a Gohan who only trained and fought until Namek who also thought vanilla Super Saiyan was the peak.
It was the blind leading the blind. And when he arrives at the present again he's completely blindsided by all the changes taking away his one and only real advantage.
Trunks having zero-battle smarts, and being too much of a pussy to confront Bejita who he half-idolizes half-is scared of, are both completely understandable when you take into account his situation.

Actually it's kind of the opposite. I'm glad Toriyama was at the right place at the right time. Otherwise Goku wouldn't have become a father and then a grandfather so fast. He wouldn't have married Chichi for a joke setup in the first volume. There wouldn't be any of these timeskips.

Go back to Dragon Ball. Remove all the sexual innuendos and Goku's balls and you end up with something far more similar to Daima than you want to admit.

Dragon Ball Online is full of humor and it's all Daima-like. Guess what? If they added a kid's penis on the game the age rating would've shoot up to 21.

Fuck off faggot. Dragon Ball was funny, fast paced, kept adding new stuff. It was a lot funnier and less sanitized. It didn't have to be about sex, just making characters do goofy stuff instead of this really half assed, shy stuff.
>>
>>273261607
I remember how even as a kid I was super butthurt about Goten getting cucked by Pan.
I think Kid Goku would have worked had he'd been truly depowered and through the trip he plays the mentor/teacher role to the others be it Goten, Trunks, Pan, Uub, Bra or fucking Marron. Where they're the ones who have to pull their weight and get their shit together and shape-up under Goku's guidance.

She wasn't really a bitch anon, she's somewhat reasonable in the manga (except in comedic scenes).

Even the literal shit on a stick jokes had a real purpose on Slump.

You're a retard if you think they think that. GT is a success considering it's being relevant in every piece of DB media to this day.

They don't want to go past EoZ because they do NOT want to rewrite GT. Whine about it how much you want, it's true. Everyone in charge of DB appreciates GT.

Pan is infintiely better of a character than Goten ever was. And she is also cute, unlike Goten.

I'll admit that one of the most memorable moments on GT for me as a kid was when Goku went Super Saiyan for the first time. It was really hype for some reason.
Even just now in Daima I couldn't help but feel excited as Goku was doing so against Glorio. It just had impact. Something sorely lacking of the transformations nowadays. That was something I liked on Broly too.

It's... not nice here but not to the point where I'd start disliking her or anything. Some characters act unpleasantly sometimes and she had a really good context for that.
Consider pic related, Bulma was moody and acting like a bitch before going on Namek and I think it's fine. Makes me like her even more in fact. Of course Chichi is different and I don't think she's as fleshed out as Bulma so this doesn't apply perfectly. But still.

Yeah but Bulma's always been a prissy petty bitch and it's ultimately over something insignificant so it's not really a big deal.
Plus Bulma's ever been helpful and oftentimes a keystone character in the series so that gives her a lot of points.
Bulma's got a lot of pluses alongside her cons so her cons get a pass.

GT was specifically placed in an area that didn't get in the way of the original run. Super and Daima did what it avoided and it's messy all around, mainly Super. That alone gives it an edge over the other series because it can be ignored or acknowledged without any consequences. Daima and Super being 'canon' means people will take it seriously and it's clear that both series are going back on what the original manga established or trying to shoehorn new elements into the story sloppily.

The manga is a much easier read and way less of a timesink. With that said though, most of the stories and characters are still very simple and immature. As a adult it's fun, but not much else. For kids, it is genuinly much more appealing.

It's not about being a timesink or not. It's about basic tone, dialogues delivery, comedic pacing. It's the very DNA of the story. It's the execution. If you think the anime and the manga are anywhere similar beyond sharing the plot outlines (which are neither kiddy/immature nor adult oriented, they're just... basic decent outlines), you have no critical thinking.
