It's been over 3 years since Super Hero, what are your overall thoughts on it? Would you have changed anything in the story about it?
>>282187611Can you not? Just talk about Dragon Ball like a normal person dude
Not having any shenanigans between Gohan as Great Saiyaman and the Gammas felt like a missed opportunity. At least Xenoverse 2 capitalized on it
23 years since that day huh. Waku Waku time sure does fly. Those buildings were pretty strong
So what's the best viewing order to show the Dragon Ball movies/special to someone who doesn't know anything about the series? How they came out or in an order structured to allow them to get the gist of what the actual story is about? If it's the latter, how about this order?:>Bardock Special>Path to Power>Blood Rubies>Sleeping Princess>Mystical Adventure>Dead Zone>World's Strongest>Tree of Might>Lord Slug>Cooler 1>Trunks Special>Cooler 2>Android 13>Broly 1>Bojack>Broly 2>Broly 3>Fusion Reborn>Wrath of the Dragon>Battle of Gods (preferably the longer cut for this exercise)>Resurrection F (the one with Trunks if you can find it)>New Broly>Super HeroAnd a condensed list just for them to get it would be:>Bardock Special>Path to Power>Sleeping Princess>Mystical Adventure>Dead Zone>Lord Slug>Cooler 1>Trunks Special>Bojack>Battle of Gods>Resurrection F>New Broly>Super Hero
>>282188395Why would you show the movies to someone who never saw anything from the show
>>282187107Gohan taking over the ending completely tanked the movie.
GODly.
>>282188395This is the peak of I have nothing else to talk about so I'll ask a stupid question in a vain attempt to start conversation
>>282187107A mismanaged money making machine.
Why don't they use the Dragon Balls to turn Bejita into a senzu bean plant so they can grow more senzu beans faster?
Wtf. You guys never told me Tien was in Sailor Moon
>>282189449
>>282187107It's "Piccolo - THE MOVIE" so it's great.My only problem with it is that Gohan's power up felt unearn and unsatisfying but that's Gohan in a nutshell
https://strawpoll.com/2ayLQX7GMn4
>>28218813024 years actually, Goku.
It was pretty awful. Both Gohan and Piccolo's new transformations sucked ass. Main villain was a literal Cell clone with less personality than the original. Both the Gammas were insufferable and unfunny as fuck.Genuinely hope they just let the DB rest because everything that they release with its name nowadays is pure fucking trash.
>>282190881
>>282190881Lemme guess you love Broly movie even though the same issues apply kek
>>282187107>what are your overall thoughts on it?Shit story, great fights.>Would you have changed anything in the story about it?Even if we were to fix the plot the fundamental premise of the movie is so bad you might as well make a different movie.>>282188395>Read the manga>watch the movies on release orderThe only one you "have" to watch is the garlick one if you're watching the Z anime.

>>282190194God, i'm so fuckin' old...That's like 5 more years until i'm 30Jesus
>>282191010If dragon balls can unlock your full potential and even give you more power then that undermines almost every previous arc.I would have no issue if they at least wrote some contrivance to make Piccolo the only one who can.
Is Goku a good dad?
>>282187107Isn't Cell Max basically just Hirudegarn?
>>282191472
>>282191617Hirudegarn is magical and sealed inside Tapion. Cell Max is scientific and is based on 2nd form Cell. They are both big bugs with fundamentally different natures and levels of power.
>>282191472No. Toriyama said he wasn't.
>>282191010Yeah pretty much all transformations are unearned garbage. At least Vegeta supposedly earned SS1 and SS2 through actual training and Goku earned SS3 that way as well even if he was dead.
>>282191840
Number 18 the Fastest.
>>282187107The first half was fun, it turns into shit when Cell MAX shows up.
>>282191010>>OMG I LOVE HOW GOHAN TURNED SSJ2 BY....um....getting really really mad at some guy he's never even met before dying?He was mad because Cell was torturing his friends in front of him, 16 only pushed him off the edge.
>>282187107It's OKPiccolo Orange is such a shitty transformation though
>>282192151>Raditz tortures Goku>Gohan snaps and attacks>Vegeta tortures Goku>Gohan snaps and attacks>Dodoria is about to kill Dende>Gohan snaps and attacks>Freeza tortures Krillin>Gohan snaps and attacks>Cell tortures all of his friends and families and orders the Cell Jrs. to kill them>Gohan "W-WAAAAAH! I-I-I DUNNO WHAT TO DO, I'M NOT A FIGHTER I'M A PACIFIST! DADDY HELP ME!"God Cell Saga Gohan was so bad
>>282191472Yes.
>>282187107Gohan's power-up was unearned and I can't take it seriously because of the hair.I wish the 'final boss' wasn't a giant, red Semi-Perfect Cell. I have no problem with them using Cell's data to make it, but a more unique design and name would've been nice.
>>282192277He was close to snap anyways but one of his friends would have died. Gohan being a pacifist is also a meme, he just wasn't into fighting and killing.
>>282187107holy kino
>>282193057
>>282189562
>>282191010My only gripe with orange piccolo is that it could've been tied to a namek centric movie or saga, huge missed opportunity in my opinion, nobody gives a fuck about how they shoehorn ssj4, 5, 6, 7 and 8 but one of the oldest and most centric side characters in the show gets their equivelant of ssj and it just happens randomly in some hole.

>>282187107I hated that the way it was done, the whole movie felt like a PS5 DBZ video game with a 2 hour original cut scene. That is my main complaint.
>>282187107It's good and fun
July 2019
>>282188395Release order, always for everything unless it breaks the narrative flow; e.g. don't watch movies between the two episodes it happened to come out, move them to either post arc or some other breather space, like the 10 days before the Cell Games.

>>282196015Fanfic.net
I dunno about all that but Vegeta is undefeated against Goku.
>>282196202That describes the entirety of Shitper, yeah.
i have a similar problem as i did with the original android saga --- how can some scientist build a machine that can even hold a candle to namek-era goku? cell makes sense, but the androids make nonerehashing cell was weaksauce, and even then they only used him as a brutish monster. the original cell was fun because he was cunning and eloquentpiccolo having a latent ability that can rival super saiyan gods feels unearned. it would be different if there was buildup to this all throughout DB, or if there was a very high cost like permanently absorbing the dragon balls or some shitgohan's latent ability has been touched on many times throughout the series, but in this it feels like he's rewarded with too much too fast. unearnedand while we're on the subject of power scaling, we don't constantly need to boost everyone's power so they make sense next to super saiyan gods. it was the same problem during the tournament of power. canonically, we know roshi would've gotten his ass handed to him in a bare knuckle fight against even raditz. so if you want to make him useful, you have to make him cunning. more focus on techniques and strategy, less on just 'omg, he trained and unlocked more power'. that's super fucking lazythe whole thing feels very disconnected from the rest of DB Super, and only further drives the 'choose your own adventure' attitude towards what is or isnt canon at the current timeall that said, i do like the general idea of 'oh, goku and vegeta are busy. time to let some other characters shine'. gero's grandson and the gammas are also fine characters. it all just could've been handled better

>>282197880Which isn't canon.
>>282187107It's pretty bad. Cell Max, Beast Gohan, and Orange Piccolo are atrocious. It's what Super's most vociferous critics think Super is. I don't even think it looks very good, unlike Super Broly and Battle of the Gods.

>>282197961After EoZ the cast trained and discovered how to sense all kinds of energy, including what the Androids use and they call it Ki for brevity. You Superfags don't understand how characters can grow and develop, so I don't blame for not realizing.
>>282198068>literal made up headcanon never stated anywhere, even in GTYou lost (again).
>>282198068Succinct and well-reasoned, and perfectly explains Trunks being able to sense Android 18.Do you have a similar explanation for Cooler appearing in GT? That's the other "evidence" these buffoons often cleave to.

>>282198577Might be onto something since both of those series suck throbbing dong
>>282198452First off, Cooler was personally designed by Toriyama, I think that's a good argument for him being canon. Second, anime and movies can have a strong effect on the author. You can't say for sure that Toriyama didn't decide to retroactively make Cooler canon. If there was some way to edit the manga, he would have included more Cooler references.
>>282198609>I think that's a good argument for him being canonIt isn't, unless you think Dragon Quest, Chrono Trigger, and Sand Land are canon.>You can't say for sure that Toriyama didn't decide to retroactively make Cooler canonBurden of proof is on you if you're making such a retarded claim.>f there was some way to edit the manga, he would have included more Cooler references.Based on your wishful thinking.
>>282198609>If there was some way to edit the manga, he would have included more Cooler references.He literally added the Vegeta scene where he says he'll surpass Goku to the last panel of the manga after it ended, you stupid shithead.
>>282198609You know what canon? Epic battle between fssj Gine, Pikkon, Olibu vs Lord Slug, Turles, and Cooler
>>282198496I thought we were just talking the anime
>>282198661That was at the end of the manga, I mean like somewhere in the middle of the manga.
>>282198609Toriyama designed Super and Daima characters. Still not canon
>>282198727>uh it doesn't count because it was at the endYou were implying it isn't possible to change and add things to the manga, which is proven wrong by Toriyama changing and adding something to the manga. Guess what he didn't care about adding? Your shitty non-canon movie villain.Cope. >b-butCope.>S-SEETHINGCope.>C-CONCESSIONCope.
The only canon material is the Dragon Ball manga, the original Dragon Ball anime and Dragon Ball Kai

What mind broke Toriyama and Toei into constantly trying to make Goku a kid againAttempt 1: Goten. Cursed to only be used for fusions and barely relevantAttempt 2: GT. Boring to the point the new form made Goku an adult again. Show canceled after 63 episodes.Attempt 3: Daima. Basically GT again, but somehow flops even harder
Dragon Ball JT.
>>282198907GT wasn't cancelled, the story came to a complete endingI know for a Superfag that sounds incompressible
>>282199068>incompressibleFucking retard
>>282198907GT wasn't cancelled, unlike Shitper the story has an actual ending.
Gohan could have defeated Buu through continued training to maintain his power level or mastering the Ultimate form for a more stable and potent state than Super Saiyan forms. Additionally, with better tactical awareness he could have prolonged the fight against Buutenks, which would have allowed for the eventual dissolution of the fusion, or he could have mastered the technique of the Spirit Bomb.

>>282200416>Source: I made it upEvery time
>>282200466>>282200542>SPOONFEED ME!Ok, I will since you are GToddlers>What were some concepts and such that unfortunately got shelved?I was given quite a bit of freedom working on GT, so aside from whether they were animated or not, the ideas were limitless. For each character, plenty of subplots existed that never made it to the screen.For instance, in Gohanās case, there was apparently so much as an āUltimate Gohanā concept in Dragon Ball Z, where he was a super-warrior with might surpassing Goku, but in GT, heās a scholar whoās given up fighting almost entirely. But for someone who had given up fighting like that to return to the front lines, I thought that naturally there needed to be quite a bit of drama involved.Around the Super 17 arc in the animation, he came back as a super-warrior all of a sudden, but actually, I personally wanted to put in a heroic episode telling the reason he started fighting again. For instance, people he loved, like Videl, had been hurt, and when in the depths of anguish, he happened to open up his wardrobe, inside was his dÅgi from fondly-remembered times. Together with the line, āTo think thereād come a day Iād wear this againā¦ā, he brushes off Chi-Chi, who in tears is trying to stop him, and makes a shocking, lightning entrance on the battlefield. Considering the status of the character, I wanted to spend one or two episodes showing that level of resolve, and I recall having even written the plot for it. But itās a subplot that diverges from the main story, I guess you could say, so due to various circumstances, it never came to fruition, and it ended up stopping at the level of, he takes off his glasses, and takes on the eyes of a warrior.
