The next Gekishin Squadra character was leaked from the game's files Another Goku kek. At least it's Black. Seems like he has Kamehameha, A Kaioken Variant, Some kind of Paralysis, and an ult similar to Zamasu. The real question is, will he be dps or tank?
>>565664585Apparently she's gonna be one of the strongest cards in the game too.
>>565664585Cute.>>565664589If it's a Goku, he should be DPS, no?
DBZ Dub Fun Facts>Chris Sabat went to universities, theater departments and local theaters to put ads up for DBZ auditions>Sean Schemmel's wife told him to voice Goku. Sean Schemmel initially wanted to voice Captain Ginyu >DBZ Episode 68 is the first time Sean Schemmel voiced Goku in 1999>Bruce Faulconer himself scored very little of the actual compositions ultimately credited to his studio, which was instead largely handled by Mike Smith, Scott Morgan, and Julius Dobos>Eric Vale was a pizza delivery guy before voicing Trunks >Mr. Satan (Chris Rager) and Majin Buu (Josh Martin) were actually best buds from doing acting and improv together long before they got cast in the show>Justin Cook was actually in his late teen years, when he first voiced Super Buu>Chris Sabat says they were paid $20,000 per year in the beginning >Chris Sabat got a lot of hate from purists such as Steve Simmons, he got into Dragon Ball Z in the early '90s, started compiling an online episode guide, was one of the original Funimation haters online, complaining about them changing the music, censoring, releasing dub only DVDs, fucking the names up and cutting episodes, and then starting with the Captain Ginyu Saga DVDs he was the guy translating and writing the subtitles for Funimation, his subtitles are still used for the DBZ, Super and DAIMA blu-rays too>Sound design and audio mixing were way better on the original DVD/VHS singles; everything Orange Bricks onward has botched audio mixing and missing sound effects (Android 19 robot voice, Super Buu voice, etc.)>DBZ Majin Buu Saga finished dub in 2003 >Dragon Ball was dubbed in 2001 >Dragon Ball GT was dubbed in 2003>Chris Sabat directed the Budokai 3 dub in 2004https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NDYqY6mS1KU>Chris Sabat re-dubbed Episode 01 to 67 in the "Ultimate Uncut Edition" from 2005>Chris Sabat redubbed over himself with a mix of 1999 recordings alongside 2007 recordingshttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rkCnE_dhxqI
>>565668551Sucks how Kyle Hebert isn't a narrator in Super. He's been the best one they had, current one is just boring. Changed him for no reason but to be closer to Japanese version, even though that really doesn't work in the English style IMO.
I've been thinking about possible transformations for our CAC in XV3:>Earthlings·Max Power (Roshi)·Selflessness State>Saiyans·Great Ape·SSJ1 to SSJ3 (SSJ4 with tail)>Namekians·Great Namekian·Power Awakening to Orange>Frieza Clan·1st Form to True Form (All forms are editable; we’d start with the first form, and as the story progresses, restrictions would be lifted)>Majin (Buu’s subspecies)·Purification·Super Majin>Android·Super Android>Bio-Android·Semi-Perfect Form to Super Perfect Form>Glind·Supreme Kai>Majin (Demon Realm Race)·Demon GodBoth divine ki (or equivalents) and doctrines (UI/UE) will be global transformations for all races.
>my random "power up" about Krillin getting serious and focusing after being a pussy in a random filler episode is totally gonna be a transformation in XV3 guys!I will never understand the couple of monkeys pushing this meme
>>565677387They better fix UI so it's not shit in XV3, because damage boosting mechanics are usually broken as fuck and that would make UE so radically better you would never see an avatar with silver hair
I think if they are a race they'll just call them demons as a collective, majins are the same thing but people recognize that as people like Buu, Kuu and Duu same with Namkikans who also fall under the demon term but have their own name as a subspecies. Side note the new idol like character in 3 looks a whole lot like this character from fusions doesn't she?
>>565677387I wonder if we will be able to get Toppo's G.O.D. candidate form or if we will only get UE from that path for power
>>565682509Aren't Toppo's G.O.D. candidate form and UE (essentially) the same thing?
What do we think of this possibly reflecting the custom menu?We are the saiya squad, while gamma 1 looks the same the other three, brett, john and jane wear uniforms we might actually be stuck fighting in this uniform for the story while clothing options are for civilian stuff or fighting outside of saiya squad missions.
>>565683442The candidate form didn't have the taking damage to get stronger gimmick as far as I remember and wasn't just a make hair purple in terms of looksThey share the same principle of needing to be in a mindset of a Destroyer but they differ in what they do, it's probably that to fully become a G.O.D. you have to master both or something
>>565668551I always respected Chris Sabat for everything he did for the franchiseSeriously, DBZ in the west would be perceived extremely differently today without him
>>565684090>it's probably that to fully become a G.O.D. you have to master both or somethingYou are fully aware they are from mutually excluding series right? GoD Mode is anime only, UE is manga only. They don't work together, they don't even exist in the same continuity.
Do you think Raditz and Vegeta's ridiculous widows peak was intentional from Toriyama to give an Ozaru feeling? Like>yeah Goku turned into Ozaru because he's an alien, the introduction to these aliens is this guy, whose hairline even looks like Ozaru's!>this guy? He's the ultimate saiyan, the strongest of them all, the prince even! So his hairline and even hairstyle is the same as an Ozaru
>>565681925Despite all being demons, Glinds, Majins, and Namekians are all vastly different from each other. It'd be weird to lump them together into a catch-all race.
>>565684090>>565693243
>Murata drew Frieza Clan avatars from SDBH>IN MAY 2026What even IS this timeline?!?
Just quick repost of the roster poll: https://forms.gle/UfR2vgJiQv8ZxvCDA side note: anything you guys are looking forward to in Xenoverse 3?
>>565683442GoD mode gives you god power and access to destruction, UE is what Vegeta adquired from already having god power and destruction.One is a gateway to destruction power, the other is the full realization of the destruction power you acquired prior.Also GoD mode makes you super buff for some reason while UE increases your power ad infinitum based on your mood.
>>565697235Nice!>side note: anything you guys are looking forward to in Xenoverse 3?A new story mostly
>>565698882any aspect you looking for are you expecting more a new timelines saves the old time business?
>>565664585>non canon paneww
>>565699326I'm looking forward being more involved in the new era, I hope the Age 1000 will be the bigger focus rather than the past>>565701656Hot
Brolys canonical wife is so cute..
>>565704215Frankie Foster...
>>565704215yep yep
>>565704215>>565704692Post the rest
Turns out that Xenocoffee guy was a pedo the whole time
>>565707840Is it because he likes Shin?
>>565707984That and because he was outed this morning. The signs were there
>>565704215>>565704692Be honest /dbg/, do you ship your CaC with cast characters?
>>565708301>ShotaconI mean so was Toriyama?
>>565708301XenoCoffee is 100% the kid goku x pan poster in here
>>565710279>the kid goku x pan posterHoly BASED
>>565709596Yes, my main CaC married towa from a different timeline, another dated Trunks, and a third was raped by Fasha in heat and accidentally had a kid with her
>>565709596I ship my CACs's fist with the Boss's FACE
>>565709596
>>565710026He was more of a general faggot than a loli or shotafag
>>565709596There are chicks that are horny for Fu???
>>565707840>>565707984>>565708301>>565710279This whole discourse makes me miss the days when the only people into anime in the west were hoodweebs, dudebros and coomers. No gross fanart where everyone's brown, hairy, ugly and gay insulting my eyes, no having to refer to people as they/them on normie sites, female characters could be annoying or badly written without it being misogynistic, no think pieces, jokes never had to "age well", no shippingfaggatory discourse like this, I could go on.
>>565711042Girls like boys who are a little gay
>>565711042yumes of all stripes have existed since before the early days of the internet
>>565707840>>565708301People really lost the meaning of what that word means. It's so stupid lmao, considering you can't read DB manga WITHOUT seeing a naked boy every two pages.
>>565711145Why does that all feel like only a few years ago? Am I getting old?
>>565701656>non canon panBut enough about Xeno Pan, the only one NOT designed by Toriyama.
Shotafags deserve mockery
>>565711380DB fans forget and deny Toriyama's pedo streak too, so this'll probably blow over in a week, and he'll be back to modding XV2
>>565711565Dragon Ball was at it's best when it was about Shotakino.
>>565711145Social Media was a mistake. It's just like school playgrounds with a bunch of bullies hoarding groups, picking their favorites and attacking others."hes not like US??? CANCEL HIM!11"
>>565712082Who the hell says cancel unironically?
>>565711721Wrong, it's best when Goku is a MAN, you hambeast of a WOMAN
>>565708301>shotaconLikes little boys or likes seeing little boys involved with oneesans and okasans?
>>565712261It's Goku we're talking about. Tomato, Tomato
>>565711565By sexy evil women
>>565712367Both I think? Something about sex dolls or something. Also he's gay so no okasans
>>565712367Likes seeing little boys get buttfucked by men
>>565712082To be fair, the only reason social media exists is for rich cannibals to farm the rest of the population, making everyone dumber and dumber by the day. Social conflict and clicks are mind numbing on purpose.
>>565712601You'll never be any of those things! Not evil, not sexy, not a woman!
>>565712939Good...because I found the dragon balls and Arinsu
>>565712208They don't say that but they do it. There's already a video up on that guy. And he seems to be sensitive enough to have deleted his channel.>>565711642Doubt, he already deleted his YT channel.
>>565713142what kind fuck do you think ariasu could be? She protrays herself as mysterious and imposing but she's really pretty much a girl failure she strikes me as a pillow princess laying there daring you to try and satisfy her
>>565677387If you're going to be this hopeful about it, then why not go all the way and dream about moveset changing Transformations like Power Pole for sword movesets or some kind of ki gun one? Or non canon ones like LSSJ or a made up Super Buu equivalent for the Majins? Personally I doubt they'll go even remotely as far as most of this after XV2, even though I love that game.
>>565707840Is he an actual pedo that likes irl kids or is this a zoomer "HOW OLD IS THAT FICTIONAL DRAWING!????" thing?
>>565708301>>565711145>>565708301I cannot say much for reasons, but based off of some of the dialogue that I have heard from him, it seems like that he was possibly into actual little children too. I agree that the internet has gotten soft about stuff, but this fag was someone that clearly should not be trusted around minors. ESPECIALLY if he ever has his own based off of some shit that was said jesus christ.
>Followed XenoCoffee on shitter shittube>this happensgreat, no more mods
>>565714816What's been said? Did he actually touch a kid?
>>565714872Just regular pottery>YTshitter cries about lolishofags in DB>Is outed as a lolishofag himselfHappens all the time
>>565711380But that is what it means. It's true that shota and loli are terms that are misused entirely nowadays despite only referring to character archetypes or a term for a body type, but shotacon and lolicon explicitly refers to sexual attraction and content. Basically Yotsuba is a loli in a regular manga, but there's also sadly lolicon content about Yotsuba herself.
>>565715157Boy I sure hate 21
>>565715678I mean if we go down that route Gohan's only 11 years old while his body is 27 years old.
>>565716460what the fuck are you talking about
>>565717773I assumed we were talking about A21 being ten years old despite having an old lady's body
>>565718010How do you get Gohan is 11yo mentally from that what the fuck are you talking about
>>565718476possibly a joke about how Gohan's character hasn't progressed from Cell Saga? I dunno i'm reaching here
>>565718785>Gohan being 11yo mentally is a joke about when Gohan was 9yowhat in the god damn fuck are you talking about man
>>565696701Could be XV2 ones too tho.>>565697235Lots of good choices honestly.
>>565719052I dunno man YOU try deciphering the inner mind of the average anon. Gohan wasn't really doing anything when he was 11 so that's the closest thing I can think he could be talking about
>>565707840>>565708301Go back to twitter, faggot. We actually read the manga here and Goku's dick was in every arc as a kid.
Queen.
>>565720176That's a male
>>565718476No I mean his current body is 11 years old. It got destroyed in the Buu arc, remember?
>>565720176>>>/vp/
>>565719676What does that have to do with anything? That both are pedos?
>>565719676>Goku's Dingdong is out ever other ep>Pan is never shown topless (animators are explicitly warned to be mindful of how much skin she shows)lame and gay
Do you guys think that the reason this manga hiatus is taking so long is because Toyaotaro is just plain out of good ideas?
>>565720880That you're a faggot that doesn't belong here.>>565721334They had a deer lick her nipples tho
>>565721780He likely has low motivation to do it now that Toriyama is gone.
>>565721780>because Toyaotaro is just plain out of good ideas?I missed the part where he ever had any.>>565721942Toyotaro's an employee, motivation or not, he does as he's told or he's fired.
>>565721942I was gonna do a funny quip at Toyo's expense but now I just feel bad. Tori was toyo's editor after all. No matter what the manga will be different.
>>565721826Ouchie
>>565722020>I missed the part where he ever had any. Depends. Was the Moro arc his idea or Toriyama's? That wasn't too bad
>>565721942His motivation is fine. He would draw chapters if they just let him.
>>565715173>sadly
>>565721334>Pan is never shown toplessThere is one frame where you can actually see her nipple. Now APOLOGIZE because Shotaku is based too.
>>565721826Says the one defending an actual faggot. He's not gonna fuck you lil timmy
>>565724169That's not a nipple anon
>>565723093I don't care about your personal taste in fictional girls, but Yotsuba is always off limits.
>>565725810Yeah, I'm fine with that.
Why you niggas attracted to kids, kids are gross
>>565707840>>565708301It's sad that I have to ask this, but what did he actually do? From what I gather, he's a shotacon and said some things here and there about Gohan and Dende. Beyond that, was he actually preying on people? The response I've seen to this would make me think so.
>>565728740I wonder if the TFS joke set him off
>>565728370adults are grosser
You guys are so fucked when super human artificial soldiers start breeding with any man in sight. You'll be crying about "AGE GAP YOU'RE 3 YEARS OLD" unable to get it up while gigachads like my friends and I are doing IRL Majin Android 21's.
>>565728740The irony of a daima account warning others about a shotacon
>>565708301all i'm saying is the choice to make a mod focused around giving specifically cell games gohan tons of alt forms makes a lot more sense now...shinfag stocks are dropping rapidly as we speak>>565708301>Revamp XV2 Team Removesdidn't the revamp team JUST announce they've decided to stop development? that's some pretty performative shit have to say
>>565729010>he doesn't have his sexdroid already????
>>565728845No way man kids are disgusting.
>>565729608adults are doing most of the crimes thoughbeit
I'm surprised FunSexyDB hasn't gotten any blowback from the DB or Sonic communities for being a shotacon. She has an entire alt devoted to the stuff and I'm pretty sure she was an artist for a shota x onee RPG maker game. Granted, she's not screaming from the heavens "I love little boys" (on her DB main anyway), but she's never hidden it either, even on Kanzenshuu of all places.
>>565730379ironically enough i think making (unrelated) porn probably makes them a less valuable target to try and chase off with dumb bullshit there's tons of twitter points to be farmed for outing a big bad pedo working on projects people like, but a dude known for making porn ain't exactly worth much in the eyes of those retards who give a fuck anyway
>>565730379>shethis is why
>>565719676
>>565730134Kids are gross though, not attractive.
>>565731934She understood Toriyama better than Toyotaro
>>565730379She's a porn artist, so she's already considered a degenerate. Plus she's not exactly hiding it. Someone higher profile hiding something catches more attention than a pervert not hiding it.
>>565732039so are adults!
>>565729346Yeah it does seem pointless since they're disbanding anyway.
>thinks kids are unattractive >thinks adults are unattractive Damn nigga you into cats or something?Puar get you going?Or are you some kind of fridgefucker?
>Yamcha-sama...
...Ayo wait a minute that wasn't an excuseDon't post that
>>565732657Maybe it's a loli vs shota thing
no no keep posting female puar, we like that
>>565733251imagine if Puar were revealed to have been a she-cat all along
>>565733030>Or are you some kind of fridgefucker?
>>565733937NO!
>>565733771Both of them are shotacons, so the difference is the kind of people they present themselves as. A pervert who doesn't hide she's a shotacon attracts less attention than a youtuber who makes mods and hides he's a shotacon, because the shock of learning it is more dramatic. If someone you wouldn't expect to be a shotacon, like say, VegettoEX from Kanzenshuu, turns out to be one, then there would be a lot of talk about it because he presents himself as a strict moderator who doesn't get involved with that side of the fandom.
>>565736315Does Kanzenshuu even have enough of a userbase to sustain drama, isn't it like 20 dudes who've been there for 15 years like most old forums
I love majin women
>>565736315Gender also plays a role. Need I remind people where the word Shota even came from? It's literally porn for girls! A guy that likes shotashit is always weird.
>>565737052Prove it
>>565737227I can't without gettig banned
>>565737861>He doesn't have sfw cheesecakeAnon...
>>565709596>>565711265>>565711290Why Fu though??? He's shit?????
>>565739026he's dark and mysterious and they can fix him!
>>565739167>he's dark and mysterious and they can fix him!This is exactly why women are Vegetafags.
>>565739167He's none of those things, he's a dweeb and morally ambiguous at best, and they couldn't fix a lightbulb!
>>565728740I'm sure he's a degenerate and all since he is involved in modding, but an adult pairing of Gohan x Dende is hardly the most "fucked up" thing I've seen from the Dragonball community. It's pretty common to see people lewding the 17 year old Videls all the time, to say nothing of Mai with her younger body, that twintail thing from Daima, Pan or Kid Bulma.Is there more to the story, or just the usual nonsense?
>>565683709From what I can tell>Top>Bottem>Head accessory>Face Accesory>A backpack of sorts>And I guess food items>>565694948Tori was always recycling design elements. >>565695252Fusions had Kais, demons, and Majin be under one race, but that may have been to tech limitations of the 3ds. Though yeah, I want Kais and Demons to be separate too.
How are you supposed to tell which order to do all the post main story content in XV2? There's just a bunch of random purple orbs in the time nest...
>>565738635>implying
I was wondering why Xenocoffe hadn't made a video about XV3 yet. Damn, oh well.
TheSuperItachi was right about Xenoverse 3
>>565741217He did, I remember him saying he wanted to date Brett. lol
>>565704692>voluptuous women in big poofy dreseswhy is it so attractive
>>565738635
I wish people did more wacky and goofy shit with female majins. They're basically slimegirls but people treat them like pink women who can do naemekian stretchy arm sometimes
>>565736463The Kanzenshuu forums have lost way more users than they've gained over the years. It's to the point that that the site might as well be a private group chat for how insular it is. Doesn't matter too much, though. The site's top mods run all the major DB-related subreddits (r/dbz, r/dragonball, r/ningen, and r/DrSlump), so their influence carries on elsewhere.
>>565744065Xenoverse 2 MVP
There's been something about the XV3 trailer bothering me. I've been wracking my brain trying to figure out what it is, but watching the DBO trailer made it hit me like a truck.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WHSTkdXigBIDBO feels more like that deep dive into the "living breathing Dragon Ball world" that Akio and the XV producer claim XV3 is. When I look at DBO I see a game that'll take us into that world. When I see XV3, all I can think is "look guys it's the FUTURE" and those DBH previews of those kids running to the arcade to be transported into DB. I'm also getting the feeling West City is going to be the only explorable thing in the game (not counting maps for battling), which I hope I'm wrong about. Not every area has to be as intricate as they're going to make West City but I'd rather have small hubworlds for the other places than either nothing at all or yet another "inspired" district in the only hub in the game.
Why is no one else posting majins?
>>565744981i can tell you're jorking your pickle to pink skinned hotties, that's why
>>565744981majins having a six pack is really funny because they have no muscles, it's a pure aesthetic choice
>>565741514Ain't he an actual pedo too
>>565742986Back then it was so disappointing to learn they took the only real horrifying and unique race in the series and just made them genki girls and fat jokes. It still makes sense of course, but to me it's disappointing that there's not really body manipulation to the same degree, fighting with disconnected body parts, melting from ki explosions, imitating humans poorly by making too many veins, exaggerated expressions, unnatural body movements, lackadaisical attitude from not understanding mortals that well, etc.I also like the type we got, but I wanted all manner of creepy girls, power trips, naive types, temper tantrums, gap moe with an eldritch waifu, etc.
>>565745136If I could draw I'd do the scene from terminator 3 where she makes her boobs bigger with my majin girl>>565745121I'm actually playing Sparking Zero
>>565745438that scene where kid buu gets punched backwards and he stretches back to blast mr satan and baa was the peakest shit. Kid buu is one of the most creative fighters in Shounen and it's a shame we dont get to emulate him much. I'd delete any talk of an absorbtion mechanic solely that we can get a fully featured majin fighting style. I want to rip my arm off and use it as a projectile.
>>565745475i'm not sure i believe yougod i hope someone gets around to making a 21 with custom moves for SZ, fucking team densetsu get on with this shit instead of making another fusion alt for a character that's both already in the game and has good moves
>>565746106I'm trying to reach 60+ on mission 100 since I already did the xv2 raidsame here, I also want Hatchiyak, Hatchiyak (baby), Purple 21, that timebreaker 21 from XV2R, majin piccolo, SS3 Vegeta/Trunks/Gohan/Broly/Gogeta/Vegito, SS Nappa/Raditz, SS2 Rage Trunks, Bio Broly, and I forgot what else I was thinking because holy shit this is taking forever
>>565746641>timebreaker 21 from XV2Rthinking about it going off of how xenocoffee's standalone mods all had quests i bet that was one of his creations tooto be honest i'd feel worse for his downfall if he didn't keep squeezing in his cringe-ass OCs in his otherwise cool mod packs
>>565745136Pure Evil Buu is even funnier. He's skinny, looks borderline anorexic, and has a visible ribcage, despite not having any bones.
>>565746031It's sad, yeah. We should have had stuff like the back attacks of the Majins in XV being only their torso rotating backwards for a punch or maybe a cute double handed push for the females, but I guess they didn't want to put that much effort in for just one race. At the very least XV3 should add a lot more Majin only Supers and Ultimates that involve weird Buu style shenanigans and body parts, I want a rage mode Awaken skill that gives your Buu girl angry veins and periodic air puffs or something.
>>565747134"The Return of the True Majin" movie where only a weak version of Pure Evil Buu escapes from inside Uub, so he starts trying to go around committing unspeakable evils and fails every time at first because his power level is lower than the average human now when? First half of the movie can be classic Dragonball antics before he finally gets the drop on Majin Buu and uses that power/form to trick Frieza or whomever into getting absorbed like The Thing, then the tone suddenly shifts to a world ending disaster movie scenario as God Buu brings back the Human Extinction Attack.
>>565749889I think the god buu part just feels a bit too close to being a straight up rerun of super buu again
>>565750076I think you could get away with it if you frame it as Uub truly overcoming his past self or coming into his own as a Z Fighter, something more of a side story type of deal. Make Evil Buu absorb Goku and Vegeta after Frieza, then have less used characters save him with Uub while the those three are fighting back inside him to justify why Buu doesn't just instantly win, for example. As a side bonus, you also complete the set of main DBZ villains getting a movie.
Been coming up with donut steel names for future XV3 CaCs and it's just making me want to play XV2 now.
>>565664398
Were you disappointed with how Xenoverse 3 turned out looking?
>>565756802Not really no
>>565756802>7-8 years>Toriyama helped work on itLike I said in the last thread, it's great if you ONLY look at it like the sequel to XV2. Like if this was made in 2018 it'd be perfect, but as a game that's going to release in 2027 and one they claimed a lot of resources and work got put into, it's a struggle to even say it looks better than Gekishin. >samefagging incoming
>>565757872To be fair Gekishin looks better than most games because they only have to focus on the one map and models Even sparking zero models dont look as good as it or Legends sometimes
>>565757872>Samefagging hereThat said we've only seen 3 characters and it's still got a while before it releases. Brett looks great and I think the only thing wrong with Bulma is how wide her face looks and the hair. Both models of the player character are ugly as shit though.I'm going to wait for one more trailer before I make my opinion. If the characters shown in the teaser look anything like their silhouettes then it can't be too bad.
>>565756802I think the art style is boring and the futuristic city looks way worse than the regular capsule corp cities, but I like the visuals and effects just being normal so far. I'm not a fan of the Super Broly Movie, Sparking Zero, Fighter Z style of very over the top effects and intense shading on everything.Maybe the actual gameplay will make me hate it, but I like what we've seen a fair amount.
>>565758065I think at absolute worst, it'll look like the renders you see on Vjump.
Final Bout 2
>>565733030have you seen puars transformation from when roshi wanted to get over his chronic basedness
>>565764086Goku lost this btw
>>565757101>>565743675Same majin?
>>565764981Wrong.Goku wonned.
>>565766872Nope, he lost, really badly too
Videl's puffy meatballs...
>>565767058Fiction. I saw it Goku wonned very bigly and Super-man kneeled to him and shook his hand out how powerful goku was the died of a heart attack.
>>565767261Yeah maybe in your fantasy land!
>>565715157oh so that xeno coffe guy was outed as a hypocrite.
>>565768131Basically
>>565714382>personally I doubt they'll go even remotely as far as most of this after XV2to be fair they made Trunk's sword of hope a psuedo transformation that changes your moves, even if it's pretty basic
>>565724468>No uTwitter is that way
>>565731934Based>>565733807Toriyama would 100% pull that stuff with 0 hesitation if he felt like that.
>>565681925they could give races sub-categories to choose fromlike>Saiyan: Tailed, Tailless, Halfblood>Majin: Demon, Namekian, Glind, Buuling>Android: Robot, Bioroid, Cyborg, Machine Mutant>Frieza Clan: Frieza type, Cooler type, Cold type>Human: Martial Artist, Super Hero, Tech Warrior>Alien: Zarbon Clan, Hera Clan, Other
>>565697235Customizing my crib
>>565774174>Hera ClanNot gonna lie, I'd play one. They're a 'glurp shitto' tier lore race but I like their designs and their transformation is just cool. It change just enough to look like a cool power up without being overdesigned.
>>565774174>Martial Artist, Super Hero,Both use martial arts tho.
>>565749889>a weak version of Pure Evil Buu escapes from inside Uub,I feel like it'd work better if it was like an evil clone of Uub. Someone's own previous incarnation 'escaping from them' feels like it shouldn't be possible on a fundamental level
>>565774342I made a 'rare' Hera clan in XV2 using super saiyan god for the transformation and it does the job well
found old screenshots pretty sure this was a thread meetup
>>565773817I am being fair. It's been over a decade since the first game and we still don't have animated saiyan tails despite it obviously being an easy addition and a very popular thing that players have always asked for, same with Super Saiyan hair changes despite them obviously knowing how to do it for CaCs considering Beast exists and we've had SSJ3 since the first XV. People have always wanted Aura and basic Ki colour change as well, which was met with the stupidest slap in the face update ever of adding cosmetic auras to Conton City only.I am positive I'll play XV3 for hundreds of hours even if it's not that good and I've even played XV2 itself through at least 3 separate times, but I'm not going to get my hopes up with these developers. I'll be over the moon to see stuff like Fridge's getting to design their Final Forms separately, but I'm not going to be surprised in the slightest when they only get like 5 extra head options and still can't be as tall as Cooler.
>>565774842Put her in the team!>>565774726Nice
the most based thing XV3 could do is make Space King/japanese martian a playable race
>>565775714I'd settle for a generic alien/frieza force race
>>565774643Sounds like an interesting build
What are the odds Future Saga 4 releases in May? Summer typically means June, July and August doesn't it?
>>565720852? That's Sparking Zero
>>565756802This is literally the best the XV saga has ever looking by a MASSIVE margin, if anyone is disappointed you may as well feed them dog shit with a shovel
>>565782593Just because it looks better than before doesn't mean it's not underwhelming compared to other modern games with a similar artstyle
>>565664589Should be a DPS to pair with Zamasu.
>>565779170I also got a rare neo-tuffle and yardrat
>>565710859You're going to the Goku room
>>565786107Cool, you're a lot more creative than me CaC wise.
LMAOOOOOOOOOO
>>565774726How strong is Temu Perfect Sell?
>>565788465Can we really call it a goku room when turles is in it?
Good Morning Chrono
Is there any hope for this character? At this point, I'm convinced he is doomed to be "Worse Frieza" as his only character trait until the end of time.
what race are you making your CaC in XV3 first?
>>565792851I never cared about Cooler. Freeza lasted longer than him against SS Goku and he didn't even have a fourth form.
>>565792851>>565793091>fodderized someone who SSB Kaioken x20 Vegito LOST toKneel.
>DBS RemakeThey're going to make Goten (Black), right?
>>565709596no, I ship other peoples cacs together or I don't do it at all
>>565794541I don't know how that battle went in the arcade game but Vegetto vs Cumber wasn't like that, Vegetto beat SS Cumber without even needing KK (meaning that even if Cumber used Ozaru to become ten times stronger, Vegetto would still fodderize him again with half of his total strength).So nah even in your fanfic Cooler is still a who
You guys have no fucking idea how glad I am we are getting this guy. I fucking despise GT but I love GT Trunks' design, in some ways even more than his future counterpart, and when he goes SS and takes the coat off? This color palette, the use of dark and bright colours, the blue scarf with the blonde hair... One of my favourite designs in the franchise honestly, if anything I hate GT for keeping this design mostly trapped.And now he's gonna be in Tenkaichi 4. I'm so fucking happy, this saga will never be the GOAT in terms of DB videogames
>>565799940fuck>will never not be the GOATSeeing actual frames of GT while looking for that one render was enough to kill some of my brain cells I guess
Pan (SSJ) when?
>>565799940His shorts should have been shorter
>>565788869Google translated ver.
>>565793029Either Demon or Kai if they get in. Made a fembuu in Xv1 and female earthling in XV2.>>565794541>Taking the heroes """Anime""" seriously at all
>>565788869>>565800659I don't get it
>>565800659>>565788869Is this official?? There's no way this shit is official right? This is worse than a chart to understand KH games timeline vs release order
>>565801082They posted a chart which DLC to buy for XV2 or something and it's this convoluted mess LOL>>565801224It is. Dragon Ball Xenoverse 2 is srs bsns!https://x.com/i/status/2051134728510837105
>>565801224the logo in the corner and the use of "SS" abbreviation points to yes, it's official.
>>565731934I want to MARRY and IMPREGNATE Ooishi-chan
>>565800349in the late 90s big baggy shorts were fashionable.
Who do you think will make it into XV3? Super Villain and USV forms excluded obviously.
xenoverse community already in shambles
>>565802468I better be able to train with tien and see chiaotzu
Boop
>>565802468>FLOPmah is not even on that listFunny!
>>565817315Get your eyes checked
>>565818302Don't both, he's just mad his spam about e-celeb drama isn't getting any traction.>>565802468Hope they nix the roster and just focus on CaCs and story.
Bamco must be planning a big ending for XV2
The guy that found that Chi-chi audio in the Sparking Zero files also found audio for Neiz and Doore
>>565819654Hell yeah, RB2 vets return!
>>565818302>>565818975I said FLOPmah not FLOPma.
>>565801703Well you're too old for her
>>565819654wait, chi-chi is in?
It's weird how there's never been a DB Idle game or an incremental one.
>reading the fanbases dogshit wants for Z0 and XV3
>>565827843For example?
>>565823859It can just be unused dialogue, to be specific it's a battle quote from Goku to say against Chi-chi, not lines from Chi-chi herself. Same about the others, I think it's Guldo's dialogue.
I really don't get why the fanbase wants SS1 Black or Gohan Black, they're just so boring.
>>565829316I don't.
>>565829316Gohan black is because he's already a fully functional character in the game who just isn't selectable for some reason, no reason to not just flip the switch and make him playable. Same deal with scouter vegeta super saiyan
>>565829316SSJ1 Goku Black is like SSR Future Trunks. manga-only characters that people only like for the novelty
Do you think EoZ clothes will be available for Goku (Super) or just Goku (Z-End)? In a way I kind of want them to stay Z exclusive so Goku (Super) keeps being better represented by pic related, but the more customization we get the better I guess.
>>565830056SS Black is wanted because he looks cool. Classic SS looks cool. Nazi look on the cosmic nazi god character is good.Also>SSR future Trunks>manga
>>565830364I can't remember if Rage or 2 was the manga-exclusive form. I never watched the Goku Black arc
>>565830778You're likely thinking of Super Saiyan God trunks, he's from heroes. Both rage and super saiyan 2 are in the anime
>>565830778Neither. SS2 is in both versions of the story, Rage is an anime-exclusive form above SS2. The closest thing to manga's "SSR" was SS2 Trunks being so strong he matches SS3 Goku at full power, but that's just another case of the anime turning plot points into separate forms for the sake of figurines and such (see Toppo being a GoD candidate, mentioned as early as his introduction in the manga but saved in the anime until the end to turn his GoDhood into a new form)
>>565831030I mean to be fair let's not pretend like seperate forms aren't memorable. I doubt Gohan letting his rage unleash back in Cell saga would have been as cool if he was just in super saiyan 1 but stronger like most previous uses of his rage
>>565830934no I distinctly remember him getting some special transformation during his fight with Goku Black.
>>565831317yeah that was super saiyan rage, which is an anime only form and is also already in sparking zero. Granted it's a powerup and not a full on form but it's there
In fact isn't super saiyan rage trunks using the sword of hope straight up on the cover of the game?
>>565831236Depends which form, SS Rage Trunks is so bad and uninspired the media doesn't even know how to call it, depending on the source he will be called SS, SS2 or SSR, it's a complete mess and a joke that even the unlock is just SS2 again, which was already SS again. Even Beast was better because at least it had the excuse of Gohan being a turbomutt and Piccolo was already talking about Gohan's potential to surpass everyone in the movie, also looks way different from other forms. But Rage Trunks is just angrier SS2 with yellow-blue aura
You know i've been thinking about it lately, and I wonder how people thought about android 16 back when the manga was running. The whole thing about him being in the image of Gero's son is common knowledge these days, but back then no one had that context. He's just kind of their weird dude who doesn't fit into anything and is never explained at all. There's not even any foreshadowing that he's gero's son he's just a pacifist for seemingly no reason
>all these clickbaity youtube vids that keep making think that we got some new XV3 footage
>>565831623I hope that SS Rage is deleted in the remake
>>565812013I actually found out about this guy super recently, when he was talking about DLC, then what feels like a week later his channel is gone completely.Feels like a world record.
>>565833610Trunk becomes SS Blanco instead
If Moro is happening in 2027-2028 it's fair to assume by 2030 we will have Granolah arc and thus UE Vegeta in any game still alive, so the question is how long until they make Ultra Egoinstict Gogeta/Vegito?
>>565835557It's a shame Heroes died, not only I'm sure they would come up with something like that, they would have eventually made Goku-Xenoku and Vegeta-Xenogeta fusions and give us official SS5. It would be worth it just for the absurdity of seeing furry Goku with white hair becoming an official form
>>565835557Noone wants that shit tho
>>565839354You are alone in this world and so will die.
>>565839715Sorry, let me rephrase that. Noone that matters wants that shit.
>>565839354Exactly.
>>565802468RIBRIANNE OR BUST!!!!ACTUALLY, THINKING ABOUT IT, I WILL BUST ESPECIALLY IF RIBRIANNE IS IN!!!!
>>5658355572030 too soon for Granolah probably.Moro arc should last for 20 episodes, Toei wouldn't do a shorter DB anime than that. Then they have to see the reception and whether it's worth the risk (of course people will be eating that up like crazy) and then greenlit Granolah. 2031-2032 that's how I'm seeing it.
>>565830181They'll NEVER tie EoZ to Super kek
>>565830181Could make him his own character
>>565830181i want EOZ Goku clothings kinda bad for customization its such a fun outfit for CAC same with vegetas
we like non canon pan here
>>565758065I lowkey thought pic related was from Xenoverse 3. It looks like it belongs to Xenoverse but it's higher quality than any of the models, both new and old, and even a cut above those CGI cutscenes. Then Xenoverse 3 came out and I was wrong lol.
>>565849128We like ALL Pans!
>>565831553Yeah, and Vegeta is using Blue evolved but that's just a power up like Rage is.
why are there so many lolicons/shotacons in the db community?
>>565850447Because Toriyama, like all good mangaka, was one.
Pan isn't attractive and kid Goku even less so. You just don't have any standards.
>>565852016You're just mad nobody want you, Zamasu
>>565852235Glind women are NOT for disgusting ningen monkeys!
>>565852541They made their choice. Get over it. And when XV3 comes out, ALL the Glind women will be for Male Saiyans and all the glind men will be for Female Saiyans. Except you. You'll still be alone.
I can't wait for the next Dragon Ball saga based on ideas Akira Toriyama wrote on a napkin, where Pan unlocks SSJ5 after getting irritated by the chickenpox and mogs Platinum Cooler (canon)!
>>565852712YOU WILL PAY FOR THESE LIES YOU FUCKING NINGEN.
>>565853365YOU WISH YOU COULD FUCK NINGEN, JUST LIKE GLIND WOMEN!
>>565852712there is enough glind women to go around for everyone.
>Still no BraAs a complete newbie what's the easiest guide to follow to mod a character into sparking zero?I plan to use her db legends model to make it a little bit easier if that helps at all...
Zamasu wishes for ningen cocks up the ass, just like the other Glind women getThe sheer depravity of it all...
>>565853493>>565854103This is VILE and you're a degenerate disgusting NINGEN! Your Glind fetish extends into truly depraved lust that I would NEVER indulge that no matter how you try to pin me down and violate my divine body!
>>565853557There's none for Zamasu tho.>>565855010>violate my divine body!The one you trade for Goku's?
you know, I've been wondering this for a while but is super saiyan rose because of a glind in a saiyan body? I mean Zamasu wasn't a true kai he didn't go through whatever actual ceramony they had so he was just a glind with a stolen potara I hope regular saiyans can get the form someday imagine the rage of zamasu if that would happen beating him down with his own power
>>565855703He was still a Kaio / Kaioshin apprentice, that still make him a god.
I'm curious if Toei anime only forms are gonna make it inBlue KaiokenWrath form Blue Evolved
>>565855361consider the following. the real reason zamasu took goku's body is to attract the glind woman
Ningen...
>>565857279Exacly.
The only Sparking Zero models that I think look bad are First Form Frieza, Super Saiyan 3 Goku and Kid Goku, which isn't bad for a game with 208 characters
everybody talks about Bulpan but never Palla
>>565742986Will you take "fucking horrifying"?
>>565858001It's just a shame that the game plays the way it does. Some of the story chapters that have the opponent start with full ki are demoralizing because you just know they're going to counter until your ki is gone if you go for an opening combo.And some of these what if scenarios are basically trolling.>beat Nappa effortlessly with Piccolo>Piccolo fights Vegeta>beat him too>Piccolo proceeds to die in a PowerPoint slide:O
>>565794541i hope xenoverse 2 or 3 gives metal form for frieza race cac. then give golden metal form
>>565788869>>565800659>>565801224Anything but actually selling a Complete Edition pack.
>>565876058BASED
>>565756802Not really.We still don't have an idea about how the ingame graphics look, so it's hard to be disappointed about something without first seeing it.
>>565799940>I fucking despise GT butThe Dragon Ball equivalent of homosexuality.Wonderful.Now back into your closet and don't ever come out again.
>>565788869>>565800659>Release a GOTY/Complete/Definitive Edition for 60 bucks including the base game and all the DLC>???>ProfitIt's that simple, but no, they just had to make a retarded-looking chart.Whatever.
>>565829316I don't like Super Saiyan Rosé, but I'm fine with SS1 Black.I don't care about Gohan Black though, I just find it funny that he's not playable despite being 99% complete.
>>565830181Only available for Goku End, most likely.That's the iteration of Goku who fought Uub.They still haven't committed to tie EoZ into Super in neither the anime nor the manga, and I don't expect them to do it in what's essentially BT4.
>>565878909GT stands for Gay Tranny
>>565869069Win the fight and lose the cutscene is how half the fights go in any DBZ story mode

I love GT the most of ALL Dragon Ball seasons.
>>565800321Never, dead concept.
>>565884192Okay Mr. Transfats
>>565843587>Moro arc should last for 20 episodesAre you insane? That's the length of the Future Trunks arc, which was way WAY shorter than Moro's

future saga 4 when? I am bored
>>565894353I canceled it because you asked so never.
I wanna talk about xenoverse 3how are their saiyans with tails still?How is Bulma, Piccolo and Gamma 1 still alive 180 years after end of Z?why did bulma create the saiya squad? why are demons on earth now?do you think freizas clan, namkikans are still there too like the first 2 games? Do you think now that we know how majins are created that they'll remove the OG story toriyama wrote for the majin race and go with something like witch marba created a shitload more majins just became their own race of people independent of her? do you think bulma learned how to replicate gamma 1's creative process with Hedo and created an android race as a result?finally, freizas and namakians have transformations based off piccolo and freiza respectively but demons and majins don't, the most they could make was turning majins into kid buu clones, nobody liked that and demons have no transformations, the third eye just turns them big and buff and probably works on any race rather than blood thing like the fruit from the tree of might, majins closest thing to a transformatiion is Duu mimiking super saiyan 3
>>565895527>how are their saiyans with tails still?I wished for them so I would have more to pull>How is Bulma, Piccolo and Gamma 1 still alive 180 years after end of Z?Dragon Balls, Piccolo lives that long, Android >why did bulma create the saiya squad?For fun and profit>why are demons on earth now?They're been there before>do you think freizas clan, namkikans are still there too like the first 2 games?Majins too>Do you think now that we know how majins are created that they'll remove the OG story toriyama wrote for the majin race and go with something like witch marba created a shitload more majins just became their own race of people independent of her?XV2 already has the new lore>do you think bulma learned how to replicate gamma 1's creative process with Hedo and created an android race as a result?Could be, wouldn't bet on it

Xenocoffee is an accurate representation of people who like shin.Zamasu is MUCH better and sexy
>>565905524When it comes to deities, I'm more of a Beerus guy.
>>565853986Bros...
>>565905524Daima Nahare is super cute tho.I'd love to pet his head and rub his ears
>>565812013I found his channel recently and I found him weird as fuck, focusing a LOT on young DB characters and being a weird freak with the faggy BL fanfictions. Hopefully someone saved that Mythic Marvels mod, that Masked Goku Black looked really good
You guys remember that SZ0 datamine on release? It seems that the data strings that Mondomega found are indeed for new characters/costumes, hell, Bojack Movie Gohan has been in the game since release too which means that they've been working on it for a while. Hopefully this means that we can play as Grande Padre or Zeno in the near future
>>565668551Based Simmons.
>>565907651Oh and after Daima's DLC, another guy datamined the game and found a huge new batch of data strings, he says that some of them should be new additions for existing characters (like new forms, some of them missing like Daima SSJ2/SSJ3 for Goku Mini) I was skeptical of this but the latest trailer revealed GT Vegeta, if he transforms into Super Saiyan 4 then that already sets the predecent for lesser forms that were scrapped on release to be added in the future (looking at you, Base Garlic Jr.).He found a total of 100 new character strings in the datamine btw.
>>565908082If they add Daima SSJ2/SSJ3 it has to be as a free update to the exiting Daima DLCs. There's no fucking way they split a character between 4 different DLCs
>>565908082I hope so.
>>565908713They could just make use of the accesory system they have in place and add an invisible accesory called Daima Soul to Goku Z-End and Vegeta Z-End, if they have it equipped they can transform into SSJ4 and SSJ3 respectively.That way they don't have to make what are essentially clones from already existing characters and we can have adult Goku transforming into SSJ4 and everyone is happy.
>>565868784Genuinely pretty cool, thanks for sharing anon. I am content knowing at least one person out there knows at least somewhat the true potential of buufus, even if it kind of just looks like a gmod horror creature
>>565909672I'd be fine with that.
>>565908082This seems a bit redundant. At this point, just make Daima Goku and Vegeta costumes for Goku (End) and Vegeta (End), and attatch SS4/SS3 to the end of their transformation line. Also, Gohan Black and Melee DBS Trunks better be added.
>>565911082>This seems a bit redundantRemember this is Bandai Namco we're talking about, in another rosterfag game (Naruto Ninja Storm) there are like 10 Narutos with the same outfit but different moves and he was the selling point in multiple trailers across the years. Bardock, GTgeta and S17 are the "big" characters to promote this DLC, they'll need a NEW Goku to sell another DLC pack in the future>inb4 Moro Arc GokuMoro stuff should be for late 2027/2028, the Meteor DLC Pack should be here before that.
How do I fix XV2 showing me numbers instead of buttons on PC? Steam Input does nothing and google just shows me people who are just as fucked as I am and no solutionsPressing LB and RB shows me the correct buttons but they become numbers again as soon as I press anything else
>>565914051i'm assuming you're using an xbox controller and the game naturally supports that. I mean, mine is a pirated copy with no steam anything and i'm using a chink controller (with a xinput mode, so it shows up as a x360 controller) and it works just fine, buttons and all
>>565914520Original copy with chink controller. Now I'm considering refunding and pirating it instead.

>>565914803another thing is that i'm using revamp, though i doubt that has anything to do with it. Sounds just like the controller isn't being recognized as a x360 controller but a generic controller instead imo
>>565745420He's a lite Chris Chan
>>565800321Pan getting SSJ wouldn't even matter anymore. The series has long since blown right past that transformation. Most characters don't even use the form anymore, and with every one discovering their own path to power, it's only gonna become more and more outdated.
>Goku Jr. has never appeared in any Dragon Ball games besides Dokkan and HeroesWill Sparking Zero be his proper debut, or Xenoverse 3?
>>565927301If it doesn't matter why does it upset you so much?
Come on final xenoverse 2 update or xenoverse 3 give me Majin imitation super saiyan. all the devs has to do is give the form Duu's ss3-like hair/tentacles and copy super saiyan's stats.
>>565907793>looks like a 2000s era Pic>2024>no ai training warning
>>565927597>Xenoverse 3It'd be funny if his present incarnation showed up there. GT starts around AGE 800. Pan's said to be around 100 by Hero's Legacy, so it takes place around AGE 900. By AGE 1000, Goku Jr. would be Grandpa Goku Jr.
>>565917607Yeah that was it, sadly I didn't manage to solve it, not even with third party software, I ended up refundingI'll just wait for XV3 release to get into it and watch XV2 plot on youtube instead
>>565914051Do you have a program that's making your controller do keyboard inputs or anything like that?
>>565940346No, before this I only ever needed steam input to make the controller work properly with very few games, most games detect it flawlessly from the get go, and I've been using it for at least 5 years so that's quite a few games. XV2 is the only one who gave me any kind of issue
is there a dlc unlocker mod for xv2 i dont want to spend 300 on this shit
>>565936030funny thought that pan's watched her entire family grow old and die, meanwhile bulma's still around looking the exact same thanks to her 'beauty treatments'hell even she'll be dust by now while bulma's going about fucking men who look suspiciously like vegeta
I can't wait for Xenoverse 3 to come out just so this retarded "Bulma became immortal guys!" misunderstanding can die
>>565949192Same
>>565948627>bulma's going about fucking men
>>565951014well i mean, she could be going around fucking women who look like vegeta i guess...
>>565951468...wait that's not what-..Hmm
...Very bullyable Princess of Saiyans...
>>565949192Kishinpain did it first
Introducing Goku to pole dancing as a training method.
>>565881096Sparking Zero does a decent job of providing alt paths and "somehow they won" endings, and usually the scripted losses are set up as survival missions. That example from Piccolo's story is kind of an outlier. If they weren't going to flex their creative muscles, it makes you wonder why they didn't go for a "somehow they won" ending.
>>565948627>who look suspiciously like vegeta
>>565963245the story mode's a bit of a mess in that some characters got a LOT more effort than othersgohan got gohan black, trunks got a ToP saga, vegeta gets... early SS2? and he doesn't even go past buu
>>565927597This nigga was so lame.
Sex with mamba
>>565963432Wild to think that Breakers used to have an episodic story, cutscenes, and OCs.
>>565965367That would have been the only thing that would have made me play the game but they dropped it so quick
I only just now realized the idea behind the Budokai 2-exclusive Buu forms was that he’s absorbing the previous main villains specifically
>>565963608Vegata's alt path where he resists mind control is pretty good. I'm working through Piccolo's story now, and it's kind of crazy that the first two alt paths are "win quickly for an extra fight and a cutscene where Piccolo still jobs and ultimately contributes nothing."
Bump
>>565963608>>565971516>Vegata's alt path where he resists mind control is pretty good.I didn't like that one because it's basically the "Destined Rivals" what if from Tenkaichi 2 again, and that was already the worst one in that game. My favorite What If in Vegeta's story mode is not a full one but the alternate ending where he fights SS3 Goku if you defeat Kid Buu without help. It's just a cool final boss for him.
>>565971175>he’s absorbing the previous main villains specificallyYeah, like that asshole Yamcha
>>565977815Calm down, Bulma!
>>565977815Yamcha was a bad guy for a while when he was introduced but not the main one
>>565971175yeah i think it was also meant to go along with the story mode having that whole thing with majin cell and majin frieza being around in the buu saga too
>>565978670Yamcha was an antagonist but not an overt villain. there's a difference. an antagonist is simply a character who opposes the protagonist, for whatever reason. Goku was lawful neutral as a kid, whereas Yamcha was true neutral. the worst thing he's ever stated to do is chivalrous highway standups; he's never said to actively harm innocents.
>>565979116>but not an overt villainHe was LITERALLY a bandit.
>>565979116>he's never said to actively harm innocents.He literally harm innocent on-screen by attacking Goku and Bulma who did absolutely nothing to him and then goes out of his way to track and attack them a bunch specifically to steal their shit.That's a villain.
>>565980494he tried to confidence-trick them and then fought Goku head-on with honour.
what if cell absorbed lord beerus and whis? what if cell did a fusion with gohan?
>>565981836Cell would never fuse with Gohan! Goku however...
>>565963432>who look suspiciously like vegetaYes.

vtubers are going to exist in age 1000
>>565986034Shouldn't want...
>>565986804Because you know your low class cock could never satisfy her.
>>565986034>>565987064Does she get instant-loss like the actual Vegeta?
>>565988578Vegeta will always be a Vegeta
>>565988825imagine that time of the month though...
>>565989837Would you really be able to tell the difference between then and "normal" times? Loud, angry, shouting, bleeding...
>>565990049Now that I think about it, is it even synced with the moon? That is when they're at their strongest. What if theirs is a solar cycle?
>>565990896You'll have to investigate many monkeys to find out for sure.
>>565986034>>565987064>>565988825>>565990049>>565991170...why am I more okay with this than genderbent Goku?
>>565991268I won't pretend to understand your psychosexual peculiarities and preferences, but I will say that on some level you probably think less "changes" with a female Vegeta. You can map most of Vegeta's typical behavior onto things you think as more feminine traits. You see Vegeta and think "haughty alpha bitch that still can't beat Goku" and your mind does not try to argue that.
>>565977681>Destined Rivals" what if from Tenkaichi 2 again, and that was already the worst one in that gameNow imagine if the cut android saga what if was left in. That would've been such a let down.
>>565991268because she smoll and pouty
>>565991268Vegeta kinda acts like a woman. temperamental, catty, always picking fights with absolute confidence the opponent won't fight back
>>565992005>>565992652>>565993153Huh, I guess that makes sense...
>>565991268you identify with goku more so him getting r63'd feels like its personal you look up to goku more so it upsets some more core part of how you interpret the world
>>565991268Goku's your dad. Imagining the possibility of your dad getting dicked down feels bad.
>>565895527>how are their saiyans with tails still?U6 sex tourists>How is Bulma, Piccolo and Gamma 1 still alive 180 years after end of Z?Bulma either time travelled or else its actually her descendant. Piccolo Jr inherited eternal youth from Piccolo Sr's wish. Jinzoningen live forever so long as they aren't killed. 17 and 18 are probably also kicking around somewhere>why did bulma create the saiya squad? Probably someone else's idea after finding out she created the Great Saiyaman's super suit>why are demons on earth now?Demon King Kuu opened the borders>do you think freizas clan, namkikans are still there too like the first 2 games? Yes>Do you think now that we know how majins are created that they'll remove the OG story toriyama wrote for the majin race and go with something like witch marba created a shitload more majins just became their own race of people independent of her? It'll probably just be stated that every Buuling can trace their origin back to Majin Buu and be left to your imagination>do you think bulma learned how to replicate gamma 1's creative process with Hedo and created an android race as a result?maybe. She was interested in his artificial skin for beautician reasons so it'd be funny if Capsule Corp androids all have traits/powers that were fashionable first and foremost that happen to have combat uses, like unbreakable extendable nails that can be used as claws>majin awakeningthe third eye also buffs the hell out of your magic so they could have it that a third eye awakening changes your normal attacks into dragon quest style elemental spells, sort of like how Terra fights in Final Fantasy Dissidia.They could also give them Demon God form from Heroes
I really like this character design, it would be fun if he was related to Vegeta/Vegeta Jr.
>>565971175still bizarre how 21 w/ cell absorbed wasn't made a playable skin in FZ
>>566000021
>>566000021>goes super saiyan 3>pompadour unravels with such force it creates a tornado
>>565999786>Piccolo Jr inherited eternal youth from Piccolo Sr's wishNo need for that. Namekians live for centuries. Elder Guru was already an adult back when Kami wasn't even born.
>>566000021>>566000145I love his design too.I thought he was a Fridge Avatar's 'human' form / A Fridge user from DBH for a second when I first saw him.
>>566001946sure but it's something already mentioned by toriyama and brought over to both DBO and Ultimate Tenkaichi, both set in Age 1000, son that'll probably be the case in XV3 too
>>565993583That's not true, I don't identify with Goku. He's just that cool bro I would like to be friends with.>>565996656No, he's not my dad, he's like a cool bro... but the idea of him getting dicked down upsets me, yeah, I guess. I don't wanna see my bro get dicked.
Even if your "bro" were your "sis" though?
>>566004081BROSDON'TFUCK
>>566005416>His bros are virgins

>>566004081That makes it worse! I don't wanna fuck my sis!>>566005416Exactly!>>566006170EXACTLY!
r63 is a shit fetish
Tail pulling on the other hand...
>>566006848you're thinking of anal sex
tailpulling and tailjobs are also a shit fetish
>>566007038Now THOSE are fighting words. I will defeat you.
Wearing a majin girl like feety pajamas
all the tail talk made me look up what we humans could look like with one and it turns out there are some who do have tails but when you see the tails you'll understand why evolution decided we humans were better off without them, they kinda look like penises rather than something like a monkey tail or even a fox tail like most humans probably imagine or would want to have, they serve no function on us whatsoever, even if you were to get into the science of say Android 21's tail in majin form the sheer size of it would take a lot of energy to move let alone move it with the precision she does in battle. Now that I think about it, are there electrical attacks in fighterZ, majins don't seems to have a bone structure from how they fight and how super buu's insides held no bones at all, even odder still because the majins all have teeth or at least should, the majins of xenoverse do not have teeth every time they open their mouth there are no teeth at all but for some reason they have tongues, no teeth on the model but they kept a tongue and most of the majin NPCs like to talk about eating, it's kinda like how Namkikians have teeth yet they only ever drink stuff, the same seems true for the glinds too, Degasu and Arisu are never seen eating but I think we saw Ariasu drink something in the showI was gonna say it's a demon thing but Panzy, Glorio and the other majins eat, I'll ignore Chrona because she's not canon and even so the established rules of the glind were not in place during her creation anyway since Daima came out like 20 years after her original creation sorry, i'm getting off track, tails are a novel idea and we humans have dreamed of having tails like those for as long as we've been able to yet it's just a dream, it's not something that can ever occur in us naturally the
I think the feature I'd like the most in XV3 would be some kind of form customizer. They'd probably never do that though.
>>566009850oh absolutely not if people could make their own forms with custom auras, hair colors, spiked or not, eye changes and map out specific abilities that's not only be a custom nightmare it'd ruin their chance to monetize and sell a "canon" form later we have canon yellow, red, blue, green, purple, pink and white form hair color changes the only ones left are brown, black and orange
>>566009850I don't think it would even be that hard>point-buy system for what the form actually does, how much ki it costs, how many stages it has, can add debuffs for extra minmaxxing>pick aura type and aura colors>pick any changes to your appearance (via the same process as how you created your CaC in the first place. Functionally making a second CaC it swaps models with>Pick any changes to your outfit>repeat for any additional stages the transformation has
>>566010324Rather than auras and colors I'd like to choose a base and transformed hair style at least.
>>566010324>it'd ruin their chance to monetize and sell a "canon" form laternah just have the DLC add new parts and options to the customization poollike look at Beast>ok if you buy this DLC pack then along with everything else you also get access to Beast Wig, Beast Aura, Beast transformation animation, Beast's unique combo string and Beast stat modifiers for your custom awakeningeven if people have already cobbled together their own kitbash version of a given form, that won't make anyone go "Hmm, no I won't buy the latest DLC"because most xenoverse players that get any DLC at all get every DLC as soon as it comes out. That's the whole reason XV2 got so much DLC in the first place
things I wanna see the most from xenoverse 3other racessaiyan hair actually has a unique spike form for each hairstylewhen fighting characters who can transform like say freiza or Goku the game doesn't pause itself to swap out their base model for their transformed modelclothing and hair has actual physics now instead of being stapled on to our CACs, do you know how hard it is to aura farm if you're wearing a coat and that shit doesn't react at all to the wind? Why should Piccolo be the only one able to do italso please give saiyans super saiyan 4, I don't care if it's GT or Daima they want to be monkey people if they can't be great apes, let them finally have it
What's the next big japanese game event?
>>566012014within six months
>>566005416What about the one who fucked his bro while he was disguised as Konata?
>>566011346>give saiyans super saiyan 4I mean... They've already added the transformation in The Breakers...
>>566015191That was still gay bro
I think I finally understand the tail grabbing anon now. There would be no better way to go than grabbing a Super Saiyan 4 Girl's tail and watching yourself get blasted into oblivion by her for a split second.
I just want tail color to change with super saiyan forms but i'm about 90% sure we're not going to get that
CabbaKEKS?? Your response???
>>566028909sex mods in sparking zero???
I read a Goku x fem Vegeta fanfic a while back. Was pretty good. Vegeta showed up towards the tail end (no pun intended) of OG Dragon Ball. I forget the circumstances of her landing on Earth but acted more like a prideful Piccolo than Vegeta i.e. she wasn't that much of a villain after her initial fight with Goku.
The jojofujo is right
So with Black Leaked ahead as part of the 5th season of Gekishin, what're your hopes for a hype, Underwhelming and most likely choice for a full pass? We also are probably getting a new roadmap for Helpers and maybe a new boss (Hopefully to replace Jaco, fuck him)
>>566034438Not really.>Anime about characters repeatedly beating each other up>no bloodAdvocating for censorship is always retarded.
>>566037476Yet Daima and the last couple Super movies did amazing the past few years
>>566037847I don't think the series should have ridiculous levels of gore like Multiverse does but characters being covered on just black scratches without a single bit of red after fights is also stupid. And key moments like the makankosappo against Raditz should have the appropriate amount of blood and not what kai did
>>566000126its funny that cell was made to eat 17&18 to become the perfect food for android 21.his perfection was a lie from the start.
>>566038852>ridiculous levels of gore like Multiverse doesUnfortunately that what the "where's the blood" twerps are advocating for.
>>566040878good thing humans are capable of having individual wants and desires and don't have to be completely congruent with some larger collective
>>566044708unless you're a sonic fan
>>566046165He said humans, not an unnatural disaster's byproduct.
>>566046287Hey fuck you too.you are correct but fuck you
>>566046758Gottem
>>566046758
>>566015538What are the chances of The Breakers being an asset testing ground for XV3? There's no way Dimps would leave stuff like CAC versions of SS4, LSS, Orange Namekian, and so on in such an inconsequential game.
>>566040490>from the startsorry but 21 is noncanon and she was created like 33 years after Cell lol
>>566046758This is what should have happened to Amy after using magic to make herself look older.
>>566051618High. The texture for the clothes are a match for what they do in Breakers.
So will the "Super Limit-Breaking Meteor" DLC be>First form frost>Third form frost>Katopesla>Basil>Lavendar>Botamo>Magetta>Eis Shenron>Android 14>Android 15>Pilaf Machine>Pilaf Machine combined>Tamagami 1>Tamagami 2>Tamagami 3>Small Garlic Jr>Vados>Base DBS Broly>Borgos>Shugesh>Neiz>Dore>Khaseral>Kibito>Tambourine>Yamu>Pui Pui>Yakon>Kibito Kai>Kid ChichiWith Android 21 appearing in a random separate DLC like Shallot
>>566060782If they add 14, 15, Neiz, and Dore, they better add Hatchiyack, Tarble, and SS3 DBZ Broly. Get the whole Raging Blast gang in there.
>>566061070Nobody gives a flying fuck about SS3 Broly. Give me true SS Canonly.
>>566061215DBS Broly's already in the game
Chances of SSJ5 in XV3? 100%.Chances of SSGSSESS2 in XV3? 100%Chancesof UE in XV3? 20%Chances for TUI World Tree absorbed SSJ37? 200%SSJ9? IN.Goku? IN.XV3 is gonna be the greatest game ever, be prepared for peak.
>>566061793I kinda hope some races do get game original forms. They can claim Toriyama made them himself. Anything would be better than Buu race only getting "pure majin" and every human getting the power pole and Nimbus
>>566061793i was with you until you said Goku is in the game
>>566061593As a berserker. I want TRUE SS, with voice lines, ineractions with the characters that point at him being from SH, a completely different fighting style, etc, etc.If I just wanted a copy of a previous Broly with a slightly different model I would go with SS3 Broly too.
>>566062009Human's should get the multi arms from Tien, maybe a moveset tweak, I think that would be cool alongside Max power simple but more stuff for humans is good in general.Don't know what to do with Majins, I want to say absorbstion, but how would that work? Maybe SS3 Duu did or something similar?
I hope XV3 gives Freeza Race actual transformations for each stage, or a cooler styled Transformation. But I highly doubt they'd do it.
>>566034438That don't look like spit
>>566063142Sadly most people didn't watch the movie to know it wasn't spit...
>>566062665>Don't know what to do with Majins,I always felt like both Majins and Namekians need a transformation where they have to battle, conquer, then merge with their evil selves.
Just give a name to freezer's race god damnit. So fucking stupid.
>>566060782I expect some of those in the Neo dlc, specially Vados and Pilaf. There's still room for like 7 characters.
>>566065846Weren't they called ecosians or something like that? if not, Fridges works.

>>566071087And then they adapt the movie back into anime.
>>566071223Why did they block you?
>>566073149DBShype kept reposting these articles and along with them he kept saying that Daima wasn't the only 40th anniversary gift and that there was another one on its way, and I pointed out that that's not what the article implied at all, it simply said Daima wasn't initially planned as the 40th anniversary project but it ended up lining up with it very well. Nothing about a second project at all.Reekdom blocked me back in February, when he was on that anti-dub tirade. I can't remember which post that did it though. First one I made was a reply to someone asking about his dub butthurt in his comments, and I replied by saying Battle Hour is 2 months away and #1 engagement bait for anime "influencers" (grifters) is a dub hating circle jerk. And my second reply was telling him that watching him post about the dub was like looking at an elon musk tweet.

I didn't now we had actual Geekdom fans in here. Did he leak anything yet?
>>566062665There is a majin female in dragon ball online called Titima thats stays in her super majin form. It simply looks like she just gets a longer hair-like tentacle. It looks like in this context you won't need absorbstion for super majin, it can just be a higher form. granted i don't know how she achieved the super majin form.
>>566075976Only his clitty leaked thoughever.
>>566052236does not defeat the fact that cell became the perfect snack for majin 21. i bet he tasted perfectly.

You know what Multiverse needs? A poorly drawn femdom comic about Bulma domesticating Vegeta. With sex scenes of course. That would increase traffic to the site. I hope Salagir listens.
>>566093351What's that? Another Bojack special? Coming right up!
>>566093351>You know what Multiverse needs?The fact nobody has talked about Multiverse in a while tells me it's even more boring than usual.

>>566092158I feel like I should have clarified that the mission that unlocks the transformation would be the fight, but I genuinely didn't believe anyone would be retarded enough to think that the fight would be the transformation process and as I'm typing this out I'm beginning to think I just got trolled.

I feel like I'm too excited for the SZ expansion. Not in a over-hyped way, I'm sure I'm going to enjoy it the same as I did the base game, but in a "I'm not fully enjoying the things I'm doing now because I would rather be playing that, but can't" way. How can I get it out of my mind till it comes out?
>>566121521>How can I get it out of my mind till it comes out?Make a fangame or join a fight club.

>>566168396The writers desperately wish they were writing for a scifi series and will jump at any chance to write aliens, intergalactic empires and science, no matter how convoluted it is.
>>566168542Which is ironic because Bojack is a terrible choice for it, he might be one of THE most magic-related bad guys there is since all we know about him is that he get magically sealed inside Kaio's magic planet in the magic afterlife.And he seemingly was there while not dead himself so he seemingly broke into the afterlife, kinda like Cell did.
>>566168542>>566169146Also the intergalactic empires bit is funny because Freeza's whole thing is already having a universe spanning empire that's the top dog of the universe so the only other powers around are essentially micro-powers hiding in shitholes his empire hasn't gotten to yet, like the Galactic Patrol.
>>566169146Well no, according to Salagir it's all about magic. It's about Bojack's group sneaking around the galactic empires, getting around space spies, stealing "untrackable ships" to space counts, then returning to the precious lab where scientifics developed the machine that can make them stronger except the machine is destroyed before they can finish using it so only Bojack gets to learn to transform, which they can use to defeat the nameless guy they killed like 8 years ago (in real life) who's been brought back and made stronger by "empire tech" and a Freeza ripoff that is better than Freeza according to the mods
>>566169449>it's all about magicfuckmeant it's all about tech*
>>566169449>so only Bojack gets to learn to transformThey forgot Bojack isn't the only one with that form in the movie?> It's about Bojack's group sneaking around the galactic empires, getting around space spies, stealing "untrackable ships" to space counts, then returning to the precious lab where scientifics developed the machine that can make them strongerThis sounds like a shitty Stargate SG1 / Star Wars / Andromeda plotline.>a Freeza ripoff that is better than Freeza according to the modsDBM hates Dragon Ball so much, it's unreal.
>>566169767>They forgot Bojack isn't the only one with that form in the movie?Actually they also let Bido (who didn't transform in the movie, which makes it stupid) and maybe Gokua complete the thing so maybe they remembered>This sounds like a shitty Stargate SG1 / Star Wars / Andromeda plotline.Yeah that's basically the level of trite writing here.Well to be fair it's not horrible either. It's just boring and the level of focus on tech, aliens and ""politics"" (pic related) makes it clear these guys hate most of Dragon Ball. But the chapter itself is decent-ish.
>>566170075who thought this artstyle was a good idea?
>Bojack>transformIt's not even an actual transformation, Toriyama intended the race to look like the "transformed" version all the time. The "transformation" is just tryharding until you body starts to bloat, like 100% Freeza.
>>566172880100% and Max power count as forms IMO, just look at Roshi
>>566093351>Bulma amazon-pressing Vegetagood lord
>>566173005>RoshiYou mean also a case of just bloating with power without actually being an biological transformation ability like SS?
>>566174092Doesn't matter how you describe the process, it's still clearly a form.
>>566174092SSJ is a terrible exemple for you to use because Super Trunks exist.
>>566172880Zangya is hot
Cute
I don't watch cucked capeshit, what is this faggot on about?
>>566174232Not in the same way as SS. Technically speaking Great Saiyaman is a form too you know, since Gohan's appearance suddendly changes. That is by a definition a transformation, but we don't count it in the same context as SS.>>566174404Cell literally mocked Trunks because anyone can bloat his muscles with more power so it's in fact the perfect example, retard.
>>566175630not sure how 'being betrayed by her husband and being mad about it' somehow makes her a better chi-chi eitherpretty sure most complaints about chi-chi are to do with her not doing fuck all in the martial arts department, not that she needed to bitch at goku MORE
>>566175957>Not in the same way as SS.A form is a form, stop coping.
>>566175957>Retard: MUH NO FORM!!!!!>Cell: This FORM sucks and is a bad idea>Braindead drooling retard: PUURRFECT EXAPPLE!!! *shit pants*Funniest retard we've had in a while.
>>566175630this fag speaks for himself. I wanted Chichi to stay like how she was when she was introduced, crybaby space case romantic who fawns all over the men in her life, and only shows her violent side when people threaten them
>>566176045>pretty sure most complaints about chi-chi are to do with her not doing fuck all in the martial arts department,Who the fuck wanted Chichi to become a fighter? She's had ONE fight the entire franchise and was never set up to be a warrior nor showed any interest in it.
>>566176823>I wanted Chichi to stay like how she was when she was introducedNot gonna lie, the switch up from Chichi in OG DB to the Tiger Mom running gag she became is one of the weakest character thing in the entire manga. It was a REALLY abrupt change too.
>>566176965anon it's the DB community, most complaints are to do with characters fighting/not fighting even when it makes little sense
>>566177182Most complaints I've seen about Chichi were more related to Gohan and not wanting him to be a fighter and generally being a bitch to Goku.
>>566177127which is why I like the fortune furnace arc. it was made before Toriyama had revealed Chichi's tiger mum antics but after her adult design so she still kinda acts like she did as a kid. generally nice, lovestruck over Goku, and shares his total lack of common sense. It's also the only arc where she's a major character
>>566176183>>566176768>every type of "form" is the same! Going Great Saiyaman is the same as turning into a giant monkey I swear! Ki overload is the same as biologically going from a goblin, to an oni, to a xenomorphs to a pale lizard! Please amigo let me have this!I rest my case.
>>566177860>How dare you be right? I'll shut up now!So it's a form.
>>566175630he wants Chi-Chi to be like this!??https://youtu.be/yJ86GdP87Gs?si=xg6jdnoW3EZV947x
>>566178164The 'molested' and 'dark juju' lines always kill me.>>566177661It's one of the best fillers.
>>566177127To be fair wasn't chichi coming back in general a mostly unlpanned thing and mostly done to spite his editor who wanted goku and bulma
But if Olivia isn't to blame for being botted, then is she fucked?Twitch is retarded lmao
>>566060782>With Android 21 appearing in a random separate DLC like Shallot21 won't appear anymore in games
>>566180145That doesn't really change the issue tho.
>>566182084I wasn't disagreeing with you, just mostly explaining where it probably originated from. Though, having had reread the 23rd somewhat recently Chichi wasn't exactly super endearing in that either, hounding goku's ass over a half remembered promise and then she basically just falls off the plot instantly after that. I don't get where people see her as this cool and likeable character even before the tiger mom stuff.
>>566175630LIKE STRONG WOMYNHATE HOUSEWIVES
>>566181519Wrong thread.
>>566182438>I don't get where people see her as this cool and likeable character even before the tiger mom stuff.I don't think anyone was saying she was particularly cool or likeable, I like both version well enough regardless. The point is more that the massive switch is quite noticeable.It's like when Toyotaro makes Bulma into Vegeta's 'Soldier's Wife'.
>>566183669It's a moderately common sentiment to want to keep chichi around as a stronger presence or even a outright fighter, you see it in fics quite a bit. I personally don't really get it even from her short time as a fighter in the 23rd and feel like dragonball has a hard enough time trying to figure out what to do with its current cast, much less another human. At least it's not as bad as the people clamoring to bring raditz back or saying he should've stuck around, fuck those guys.
Serious question. Do you guys think they're really keeping the time patrol and Xeno Goku/trunks/whoever out of Xenoverse 3 or will it be a new Toriyama take on the characters? I've been seeing a lot of theories that most of the game is going to be virtual reality and that kind of tracks with what we've seen so far.
>>566184231On the one hand, why call it xenoverse if you're not going to do anything with the time patrol. On the other hand they've been making a pretty big effort to bury time patrol stuff in general what with super divers, so i'm not sure. I'm aware super divers has recently added some xeno characters but the TP at large isn't really a plot thing to my knowledge
>>566184047>At least it's not as bad as the people clamoring to bring raditz back or saying he should've stuck around, fuck those guys.Yeah, I find those especially stupid.>>566184231I think at the start you'll just be in the Saiya-squad and then the Time Patrol shenanigans will be introduce by Angel Bulma crashing into your house.
>>566184231>that most of the game is going to be virtual realityInstant drop if true. I didn't think they could do any worse than the "there's no cool what if scenarios, but every bad guy's purple" conflict in both XV1 and XV2
>>566184407To be fair, the title itself isn't linked to the time patrol at all. Xenoverse as a word has no connection to time so as long as they go 'Oh, the previous two games happened', we can play whoever and it still work.And honestly the time patrol is kind of a narrative deadend if you don't want to just replay the same key moments with maybe Super added.
>>566184765>there's no cool what if scenariosI was just thinking about that. Xenoverse DOES have some interesting concepts but they flop with them. Like instead of just purple-crystal goku black, they could have also made Zamasu-Goku playable.
For me the thing about Raditz is no one really bothers to answer what he would actually *do* in the plot if he was revived. People just vaugely gesture at the idea that he's Goku's brother and that in of itself is meaningful instead of actually stating what he would DO. Goku's brother isn't really a character niche, what would be add that would be meaningfully different than the dynamics that Vegeta or piccolo already provide
>>566184765>Instant drop if true.That's literally the plot of DBH tho.>>566184970>they could have also made Zamasu-Goku playable.You could easily do entire what if campaigns based on Goku being stuck in Zamasu's body or being stuck in Ginyu's body. (The only issue is getting passed the Freeza stat check but you can always invent a form for Ginyu's body that only Goku could unlock and that Ginyu was wasting).
>>566184921The title isn't linked to time travel stuff in the literal sense that "Xenoverse" doesn't have any words that mean time in it but they've very much so solidified themselves as the time travel games as that's what their entire premise is based around. Doing something entirely completely different and is almost completely unrelated in just about every way makes you wonder why it's a sequel. The only reason to call this xenoverse would be for cynical cash grab reasons if it has basically nothing to do with the first two games aside from making CaCs. That being said, If this is largely a simulation based game like people are saying you're still going to go through the same dragobonball key moments so I dont think that's really an argument
>>566184047fans will go to great lengths to justify having a female fighter in the cast. the only times any of the DBZ girls could've realistically contributed was Launch with the Fortuneteller Baba saga and 18 against Spopovich. have Launch fight Devilman and I can legit see her winning it. otherwise none of them stand a chance against any of the opponents the Z fighters face for the rest of the series. Chichi was already leagues behind Krillin and Yamcha at the 23rd Tenkaichi so she would've been cannon fodder against the saibamen.
>>56618579018 probably could've dealt with pui pui, I guess. Maybe even Yakon
>>566184921>And honestly the time patrol is kind of a narrative deadend if you don't want to just replay the same key moments with maybe Super added.Didn't DBH have the time patrol?
>>566186083>Didn't DBH have the time patrol?Yeah but it also didn't have any original storylines for a LONG time and by the time original storylines started, the time travel was mostly an excuse to re-use bad guys rather than central to the plot IMO.
>>566185929the issue there is why would she even be in those fights? that's why I didn't include a Launch v General Blue either (even though that probably would've been funny because he hates women).
I just realized: It's kinda genius to have the RR Army present BULMA as the evil mastermind of the 'evil organisation' they sell to Hedo since in a lot of Super Sentai and Mecha Anime, the big bad is very often some form of scientists or doctor, at least the initial one.You can really tell Toriyama was a real fan.
>>566168396>His entire universe has left the story YEARS ago.His relevance to the story ended the moment he killed Pan too, after that he was just another participant. Even after being resurrected after the fight with Cell he didn't really do anything and just left after a while.
>>566177127>the switch up from Chichi in OG DB to the Tiger Mom running gag she became is one of the weakest character thing in the entire mangaJust like real life
>>566188318I wonder if this is what started the trend of everyone sniping Pan to piss off Gohan.
>>566185094Seems like he'd just be a more relevant Tenshinhan given the fanfics I've seen
>>566189843and Tien is a character who's ALREADY having his lunch taken by piccolo in terms of character niche and relevance, Given people want Tien to be more relevant as well because of how hard he trains you just end up having three characters fighting for what is more or less the same archetype
>>566190239Yeah, exactly.
To be honest I'd argue even Vegeta was kind of destined to fall into the Tien hole post buu saga, you even kind of see it in GT vegeta a bit. I think super letting him be the outright derutagonist as well as straight man let him stay out of it, though.
>>566191314Vegeta, Tien, and Piccolo all follow the same character arc of "evil badman who hates and wants to kill Goku but come to begrudgingly respect him and see him as a rival that pushes them to grow stronger; also they combat inner demons and start to question their morality"
>>566189468Multiverse mostly just copies fanfic tropes, I wouldn't expect it to have created this in particular. Gohan getting pissed didn't give him a new form or made him stronger too, he just kicked a wall. It's only during Babidi's rampage where "Gohan sees a loved one die and powers up from it" happens.
>>566191314Forcing Vegeta to stay stapled to Goku is the worst aspect of Super, let other characters take the role like Hit or Jiren.
>>566191963if Vegeta wasn't stapled to Goku he probably would've barely been in super at all, like piccolo and tien before him and how he was handled in GT. Dragonball has a hard idea trying to figure out what to do with these characters once they finish their arc so they just kinda hover around a bit
>>566191846This whole scenario was hilarious to me, why was Pan's friends and family pushing her into a fight they all KNEW she had no chance of winning
>>566191846Wtf kind of spic culture puts dead bodies into bowls?
>>566192140>if Vegeta wasn't stapled to Goku he probably would've barely been in super at all, like piccolo and tien before him and how he was handled in GT.And? Forcing a character in the spotlight when they aren't needed isn't good.
>>566191314>I'd argue even Vegeta was kind of destined to fall into the Tien hole post buu sagaEnd of Z gave me the impression Goku has long surpassed everyone, so Vegeta never caught up and Goku is above Gohan now, so Uub is Goku's next rival while Vegeta is left behind.>>566192140Typically the other characters only get spotlight once Goku is away, so if Vegeta weren't to be the deuteragonist, he would be the guy who jobs to Freeza in FnF instead of Gohan, have the same role in during Tournament of destroyers, only Hit would look less impressive for defeating him, wouldn't be around during Future Trunks arc, and would just be weaker in ToP and likely need Gohan's help to fight Toppo.
>>566191846Vegeto is supposed to be the one with anger issues?
>>566193946I dont think his anger issues have manifested by this point in the series because he's not out of senzus yet
>>566194098More like the writers didn't care yet
>>566192467>Bojack tried to kill Gohan's friends>Killed Zangya>Gohan only tells Pan he's mean>It's lik he's talking with a kid who doesn't know any of the bad things the world has>Despite Pan being 14Lmao
>>566194359I don't know why this part feels so off...
>>566194221I do think vegito going evil was probably always going to happen at some point to justify a vegito gogeta fight. Was it always going to be him being angry over no bean? I doubt it but I feel like this was always kind of the plan. >>566194465Because this is Gohan sending his daughter to her death in a tournament with ZERO STAKES. Like I cant emphasize this enough there are NO STAKES to her just giving up. I don't blame Pan for not knowing the danger she's in I blame Gohan for letting her go out to fight a guy he 100% knows will kill her.
>>566194359>>566191846>>566188318Reminder Bra surpassed Gohan at the age of.... 9? Goten and Trunks were android level at the age of 6-7.Meanwhile Pan, 14, Gohan's daughter, is hard stuck at mediocre SS level, maybe semi perfect Cell if we're pushing it.Oh, and Goten and Trunks also are complete shitters in DBM. They're probably like... semi perfect Cell level at best too.
>>566194669Remember that prime timeline Pan wasn't even able to get super saiyan. You know, the thing her dad got after a couple months of training and her Goten/ Trunks got so easily they don't even remember when they got it. Pan seemingly got Zero of Gohan's potential as well despite Bra getting all of Vegito's
>>566194881But then she got Super Saiyan when evil Kakarot more or less threatened to torture and rape her which let her throw hands at SS3 evil Vegeta without dying on the spot and even slightly damage him with a Kienzan.And yet the writers will hit you with>I hate DBS because the powerlevels are messed up!
For me the funniest thing in multiverse for me is Cell training offscreen to become super saiyan 3 level. What was bro training for, who was he fighting.
>>566195220if any DBZ villain would aspire to get stronger for the sake of it, it'd beCelll.
>>566195220>Goku is capped below Mystic Gohan>Cell can get stronger than Mystic Gohan>Vegeto can get stronger than Mystic Gohan (in base)>Buu can get stronger than Vegeto>Cold can get stronger than Perfect Cell (in fact he might have been all this time)
>>566193946Vegetto was a lot calmer and closer to Buu saga Vegetto in early Multiverse, to the point he calmly warns Bra to not kill Zangya. Late Multiverse Vegetto would threaten her.
>>566194669>6-7>>566195220>the Frieza geneshe just did 5 push ups and that was enough.
>>566195379As far as I remember from his characterization he didn't seem like he would have any drive to train just because. Train because he got his ass beat from some enemy maybe but training just because he felt like it? No dice. Same for King Vegeta just inexplicably having super saiyan 2 somehow and getting 3 because he just wanted it really bad
>>566195615>>6-7FUCK YOU I thought of that when I wrote my post but then I thought nobody would DARE bring it upMy day is RUINED
>>566195379No, it wouldn't.
>>566195629Cell wants to be perfect. that's the only justification he really needs.>I can always be stronger, faster, better
>>566195629Honestly I don't see Cell training, he's a really twisted version of Goku so he doesn't have the martial arts spirituality, he just wants to flex the big number
>>566195813I dunno anon he seemed very content with him being as perfect as he could be until gohan beat his ass. perfection for him didn't come off as some kind of vauge notion of the metaphorical perfection it was his LITERAL perfect complete form he was chasing. >>566195850I honestly kind of agree I was just giving the benefit of the doubt
Gekishin Squadra became such dogshit this season wtf happened>Godku was fine kn release and then got mega buffed to the point where fighting him is death>Godgeta is the most broken tank ever, he will just outheal anything you throw at him AND can teleport across the map AND has a stagger with it AND has God Bind to paralyze you AND has a massive CC suck in move so you cant even run away AND he can make you weaker by stealing your attack power when fighting him. Also remember when most tanks got buffed at the start of the season? Yeah he shits all over them now so those buffs were meaningless.>Kid Buu has movement speed down and def down on his rush atk and ult, his ult sends an all def down Shockwave ACROSS THE ENTIRE MAP, and he has a stagger skill 2 CC move because go fuck yourself And if that bullshit wasnt enough >Introducing Squeaky Hammers, the absolute worst divine draw of all fucking time. Fuck the fundamentals of the game. Watch as your game ends in 5 minutes because the enemy team chose Goku to smash your towers in 5 seconds and you can't stop him. Zero counterplay whatsoever What the fuck is Toshi doing. The game is dying and he gives us the worst season yet. Everywhere I go where people still play and discuss this game, everyone fucking hates this season.
>>566194669>Meanwhile Pan, 14, Gohan's daughter, is hard stuck at mediocre SS level, maybe semi perfect Cell if we're pushing it.Bra is what makes Pan look so weird. Bra is clearly this strong because she's Vegetto's daughter, meanwhile a Pan who's Gohan's daughter, is the weakest saiyan hybrid? Uub is also a complete joke for someone who's meant to be Buu's resurrection. Without kaioken he's only SS1 Goku level, so he's at best a little stronger than Perfect Cell, despite training with Goku since he was a kid.>>566195410>Pan doesn't get SS1 until she's 14>Still weaker than Bojack even after transforming>Uub is Buu's reincarnation but needs kaioken to keep up with SS3 Goku>Gast is a fusion of a handful of Namekians, somehow that's enough to be about as strong as SS3s, AND has magic that allows him to shut down Vegetto and Buu>>566195379Cell already feels he reached perfection, so much so all he does before the Cell games is stand still for 10 days. He's the usual arrogant villain who doesn't feel the need to grow stronger. Multiverse treats him as someone who would train eventually, and the other characters even expect as such, despite having no reason to believe that.
>>566196329I honestly gave up on the game a long time ago.>>566196950How would DBM change if they didn't hate DB or at least respected Goku?
>>566196950uub not having kid buu's strength despite the very explicit implication of goku's reincarnation wish being "wow kid buu is cool I wish I could fight him if he was good" I guess enma actually intepreted his wish as "I sure hope I can fight a human who is moderately strong"
>>566195743I regret nothing
>>566197358Complete rewrite of the dialogues. No more shitty "witty observations".Characters that aren't random villains are allowed to get stronger.Themes of improvement and self cultivation aren't thrown into the bin.More focus on COOL FIGHTS and less on rewriting DB backstories to fit Salagir's shitty headcanons.Subversions still, but not that kind.
>>566196329Don't forget that Godgeta effectively removes Godku's weakness, because Godgeta's tools are so good it's really difficult to get close to Godku to killing to begin with. They're the most toxic duo the game had yet.>What the fuck is Toshi doing.Hammers are this strong intentionally btw, IIRC Toshi said in an interview they made it this strong for players to find counterplay or something, too bad there's barely any. The closest I can think of is Caulifla's taunt debuffing the defenses, or moves that push away players, but those aren't enough.
The thing with "subverting expectations" is HOW Toriyama did it.Exampla: Commander Red, you have this presumed goal of the Red Ribbom Arny of using the Dragon Balls to conquer the world, that's what most of the army believes, yet Red wants to use them to get taller. This is built up to, though, because there is some attention drawn to his stature. Further subverting expectations, Black kills Red for such an idiotic goal and becomes the final arc villain; this makes sense though because it plays on the idea that the RRA wanted conquest and he intends to fulfill it.Similar subverted expectations can be seen in the likes of Kami being Piccolo's good half, Vegeta being so much smaller yet so much stronger than Nappa, Frieza and especially his final form being small, just about every part of Buu's forms, Beerus being a skinny amoral catman instead of some huge bulked up evil monster, etc. Even things like Supreme Demon King Kuu or the Evil Eye being the equivalent to truckstop dick pills, they play on the idea of how a story "should" go and take a swerve, subverting what one might expect. Toriyama famously doesn't like to plan ahead with his stories, but he still tends to build upon rather than take down what he had written before. That's his big secret.
>>566200165>Beerus being a skinny amoral catman instead of some huge bulked up evil monstertbf by 2013 this was barely a subversion, skinny dude being more dangerous than buffed up guy was a pretty staple trope
>>566200382You say that but recall that Toriyama's Beerus is a rewrite of the original "big evil lizard villain" Beerus. And even back in 2013 you had small but vocal groups actually complaining about Beerus' design (not as much as those complaining about SSG but still) and how it didn't seem "macho" enough.
>>566200165Basically Toriyama's subversions are more PERSONALITY than subersions.
>>566200165>becomes the final arc villainNo he doesn'tthe arc is already over at that point and we just get the rest of the slapstick montage of goku killing them allHe doesn't even manage to put up a fight despite the combat jacket
Okay if we're going to have a semantic cunt complain about it, Goku faces Black instead of Red as the last "antagonist" of the Red Ribbon Army arc, the last opposing character to out protagonist (Goku) and his goal (stopping them and getting their Dragon Balls). It subverts the expectation of Goku confronting Red, the person responsible for the Red Ribbon Army seeking out the Dragon Balls. Are you better now?
>>566175630If anything, Debbie is what DB fans wanted Bulma to be with Omni-Man being Vegeta but it doesn't work like that because Invincible is in a more grounded world where consequences are real and Nolan has to answer for his crimes. DB is in a whimsical world where there's no consequences and Vegeta doesn't really have to answer for his crimes. As for Bulma, she doesn't impact Vegeta the same way Debbie did to Nolan. It's actually Goku who has the biggest effect on him and made him go soft (Vegeta's own words)
>>566214117>Vegeta doesn't really have to answer for his crimes.I mean, he very much had to stop being a piece of shit.>>566175630Genuinely tho, what the hell did they mean by this? They wanted Chichi to cuck Goku and abort Goten or some shit?
The amount of 'people' who insist that they could have beaten Cell if they just 'jumped him' is unreal.
>>566214264Tbf, none of that has to do with Vegeta killing billions. He mostly stopped being a bastard because other bigger bads beat him up and Goku was dead for so long. But he never really answered for his crimes because all his victims are dead. Toyotaro tried with Moro where he feels remorse for that Namekian village, but it was too little too late imo
>>566214775Depend on what you mean by 'answer for his crimes', becoming a better person and sacrificing yourself multiple times to save the universe count IMO.
>>566215172That's also a very fair assessment. The story repeatedly acknowledges that Vegeta has become a better person, or at least Shenron considers him good enough to be revived. Though, I'd argue Vegeta spent more of his time being evil than he was a guy. Personally, if DB had more in-depth writing, it would have shown more of Vegeta reflecting on his past choices and not had a blatant plot device that gives evil characters a free pass for their actions. When characters dying carries zero weight in the long-term, it’s easy to redeem anyone imo. Technically speaking, Cell never killed anyone permanently (aside from Android 16 who's a robot), so by the show's logic, he’s basically in the clear if he just gets an attitude adjustment. Vegeta does have a sincere change of heart, but he also didn’t really have to go out of his way to earn it. The characters mostly just accept him over time and it's not a big deal.Invincible makes the characters live with the ramifications of their actions. Nolan doesn't get bailed out; he has to face outright rejection and contempt for his past actions. He's forced to confront his victims in a way the Vegeta never really does. Even if his immediate family decides to trust him again, it's explicitly clear that the majority never will.That's not to say that Invincible having more involved character writing and moral dilemmas inherently makes it a better story. It's just that Dragon Ball is a simple fun battle shounen, so fans (including myself) are more willing to gloss over the morality of characters or put more thought into story details than Toriyama ever did. Nolan simply provokes more serious discussion because he's from a story that warrants being taken more seriously.
>>566216727I don't think it's about depth or seriousness, it's that Nolan betrayed 20 years of trust then fucked off and just came back after a few years saying sorry. Meanwhile Vegeta was always an enemy, made no secret of it and then slowly changed over the years in front of them.So of course they have a different path toward redemption.
>>566198795I really hope Season 5 fixes some of this shit up
This is some bullshit
>>566229765What?
>>566216727Something like the Nolan sadboy arc the show has (unlike the comic where while he's still exiled from Earth there's less drama in his family forgiving him since he didn't go out of his way to ram Mark through a train full of people) wouldn't fit Dragon Ball. Stuff like Multiverse shows perfectly why it doesn't. In the OG you only have Ten seething about Vegeta to the point of avoiding using armor Bulma made and that's it.
>>566185094one of the teamfourstar guys wrote a fanfic about him being good its all very cringe but he gave him an oc kid with launch and the future version is hot so
Anon MasakoX wasn't the first and won't be the last to write "Raditz turned good" fanfics. Not even the first nor will be last to posit Raditz and Launch having a kid.
>>566185094Many stories don't deliver on this. They lean hard on the brother reveal for feels, then have him mostly tag along, power up in the background, and provide occasional commentary. Without strong writing, Raditz just overlaps too much with Vegeta (the redeemed Saiyan) or Piccolo (uncle figure to Gohan). Canon Raditz wasn't deeply characterized, he's like Jagi from Hokuto no Ken; just arrogant brute who just so happens to be related to the protagonist. Writers have to invent a lot, and not all do it convincingly IMO. Personally, if I WERE to write Raditz, I'd write him as the embodiment of Saiyan failure. Think about it:>he's low-class>he's weak by Saiyan standards>he's mocked by elites>he's dependent on stronger teammates>he's afraid of dying unlike other Saiyans>he's a coward who's not above fighting dirty>he's lazy and never trained his tail to overcome his weakness unlike Vegeta, Nappa and Goku>probably spent years surviving through fear and obedienceVegeta romanticizes Saiyan pride because he was royalty and Raditz could expose that most Saiyans probably lived like disposable military labor unless you were powerful. Basically, Raditz could demystify the Saiyans.You can even push it further by having Raditz resent Bardock and Gine's obsession with Kakarot, envyinh Goku's Earth upbringing but eventually thinks Goku became strong specifically because he escaped Saiyan culture while viewing Vegeta as a delusional nationalist clinging to a dead empire.I probably wouldn't put him with Launch as it's done to death and MasakoX kind of ruined it by pushing his Mary Sue OC. Perhaps Suno (that redhead who saved Goku from freezing), Mai (pre-wish) or Tights (Bulma's big sis) if I REALLY have to give him a half-Saiyan brat.
>>566235063>he's like Jagi from Hokuto no KenAt least Jagi had Jagi Gaiden to give him a MASSIVE depth and characterization upgrade.>he's weak by Saiyan standardsJust so you know, there's a weird subset of people who insist Raditz was totally strong for a saiyan despite him having the lowest power level out of any saiyan we've seen yet outside ONE non-combattant engineer dude.
>>566185094>For me the thing about Raditz is no one really bothers to answer what he would actually *do* in the plot if he was revivedGoten should be to Raditz what Gohan was to Piccolo, except that the roles would be inversed since Goten is way stronger than him
>>566235063>Perhaps Suno (that redhead who saved Goku from freezing), Mai (pre-wish) or Tights (Bulma's big sis) if I REALLY have to give him a half-Saiyan brat.Not that I disagree with the Raditz/Lunch part as I feel like it's just a repeated beat of Vegeta/Bulma (redeemed Saiyan gets with the love interest of the human Z-Fighter) but I wonder what made you think of those?
>>566235063Funny, that kinda happened in Tuffle Quest. Raditz got humiliated upon arriving on Earth, learned his brother was both a dirty Tufflefucker and yet the Super Saiyan, came to understand that Saiyans were assholes and Vegeta's full of hot air, ended up with Suno and had a son with her, he ironically even ended up training under Piccolo and got hired on by the Galactic Patrol (where he's mildly disgruntled by getting outshone by Merus like Jaco).
>>566235264>At least Jagi had Jagi Gaiden to give him a MASSIVE depth and characterization upgrade.That's the problem. Raditz has no equivalent like Jagi. Toriyama gave him almost nothing beyond "Goku's evil brother who shows up, exposition dumps, talks shit, dies." No flashbacks showing his life under Frieza, no real personality quirks beyond generic Saiyan arrogance mixed with fear. Fans have to invent almost everything, which is why so many takes feel generic or self-indulgent.>there's a weird subset of people who insist Raditz was totally strong for a saiyanThose people who say that are mostly in denial because admitting your favorite early villain was a scrub clashes with the Saiyan power fantasy. It actually supports the "embodiment of Saiyan failure" idea perfectly because Raditz represents the average disposable soldier, not the elite exceptions like Vegeta/Nappa. IIRC, his official power level is 1,500 according to the Daizenshuu which is *extremely* low for a Saiyan adult, just barely above a Saibaman (1,200). Nappa is 4,000, Vegeta 18,000 and many low-class warriors like Bardock end up higher through experience. Raditz probably didn't get to enjoy Zenkais out of fear for dying.>>566235901>SunoRaditz knew his mom and lived for a time with her unlike Goku, so he could apreciate women who shares some characteristcs his mom has. And Suno is the only one who's as sweet as Gine in this series, besides blue haired Launch. Also, would give Eighter more screentime as a uncle figure. His interactions with Goku is still my favorite.>MaiHer scheming personality matches Raditz's dirty fighter character. Also, the potential interactions of Pilaf and Shu with Goku speaks for itself as they'd be family by proxy. Mai is pretty much just Gine in face but with Chi-Chi's hair. Mix that with Raditz's wild hair minus the widow's pean and you have Gine Jr.>TightsDunno why but I can see Raditz being her type just like Vegeta is Bulma's. Must be the widow's peak.
>>566235063>he's a coward who's not above fighting dirtytbf, that was a thing saiyans did. Vegeta did pic related in Namek, and it's only in Androids saga he became an honorfag.>probably spent years surviving through fear and obedienceWhen around Freeza and the like? Maybe. Though Raditz was confident in his own power, so he's used to bullying those weaker than him whenever he helped conquer a planet.>>566235264>Just so you know, there's a weird subset of people who insist Raditz was totally strong for a saiyan despite him having the lowest power level out of any saiyan we've seen yet outside ONE non-combattant engineer dude.We've barely seen any saiyans to begin with, he casually outclassed Goku in his debut, Nappa and Vegeta are elite, and Toriyama claimed in interviews Raditz was mid class or something. He wasn't elite but he seemed to be alright. It's the Bardock Ova that made things weird with Bardock getting a near 10000 power level (Which meant he was stronger than every saiyan aside from Vegeta), which makes Raditz look even weaker. It doesn't help that Namek had random warrior type Namekians who had a power level of 3000 too...
>>566184231In think the ending of XV2 will also be the end of the time patrol as we know it, if nothing else because with the time breakers and Fuu dealt with, Chronoa doesn't need a standing army any more. But the Xeno's will still stay on as her agents just in case while all the other agents go homeand I don't think it'll be VR. First of all because we see actual (demi?)saiyans with tails and shit. Second of all because the avatar system in heroes wasn't actually VR. It was a more convoluted form of time travel developed by Cap Corp in cooperation with Chronoa that let them junction 'combat data' based on various fighters, and I think the VR-looking stuff we saw in the teaser is hinting at this kind of idea being expanded. i.e when a skill drops from a PQ, that won't just be us spontaneously figuring out how to do it, that'll be us acquiring the combat data on how to do that move. Kinda like that one Gerry Anderson show about the spy kid who could download any skill he needed into his brain
Non canon talk
>>566235063That whole "failure of a Saiyan" plot is already a thing with Turles in DBH, infact that's why he's a big fight for Vegeta in the Masked Goku Black arc
>>566237417>tbf, that was a thing saiyans did. Vegeta did pic related in Namek, and it's only in Androids saga he became an honorfag.Vegeta wasn't a honorfag, he's a pridefag. Even back on Namek he seethes when Gohan saves him from Recoome because he feels pitied even though it's a benefit to him.
>>566183373"Men" want strong womenBoys want housewivesMEN want strong housewives
Do you think Karin is a neko majin from the demon realm?>initially you would think his long life may come from the fact it is a sage/hermit, like Roshi>but a Daizenshuu said it is a minor deity from the after life with the job of assisting Earth's God>however, the same Daizenshuu says the same about Popo>by now we know most of deities came from the demon realm, deities from the after life like Kaio or the oni at Emma's place are supposedly just demon realm dwellers that moved there and then got a job at managing mortal matters>among demon races one of the most obscure for normies but famous among Toriyama connoisseurs is the neko majin raceI think it's very likely Karin is a neko majin who became a sage and then the after life bureaucracy assigned him to Earth along Mr. Popo.
>>566259937They should add Neko Majin to one of the games
>>566259937>playable Karin-sama neverbros
>>566235063I think my main issue with this is that this still doesn't really solve the Tien Dillema. Once you're done with Namek saga he just kind of becomes another one of the redeemed villians who's hanging around just kind of waiting for the plot to happen. Like there's certainly things for him to do in Saiyan saga and Namek saga, but long term I think Raditz simply doesn't have the depth to stretch him out much longer than Namek
>>566266010Toyotaro's DBH manga added an Oob-like character whose avatar was a Boo race majin and had a mascot cat who turned out to be Neko Majin in the game iirc I think the World Mission game adapted his character designs but idk if the Neko Majins were added
>>566267236NTA, but I don't believe in Tien Dilemma. It's okay for characters to decline in prominence. If anything, Vegeta's popularity is the worst thing to have happened to the franchise, since we can't just move on from him, so he keeps tagging along as Goku's shadow.
>>566274031I would agree with you before Super because Vegeta was always nothing but a discount Goku as a fighter, but that's no longer the case.
>>566274031it usually wouldn't be an issue in most stories because in most stories you can just kill characters off. It feels narratively harder to justify characters like Tien, Piccolo, and assumedly Raditz who are tryhard training all the time but get nothing for it. It's one thing to be like 17 and 18 who no one really cares that they aren't actively participating because they aren't really martial artists in the first place, but it's weirder for people who are at least attempting to participate in the plot. Besides we're talking about fanfiction here where people DO want all of these characters to shine
>>566274424It's more the case in Super than ever before.>>566274556Fanfiction is a story too, you can start a plot thread and end it.
>>566275297Are you retarded? In Super Vegeta is actually Goku's rival, it's pre-Super DB where Vegeta is just discount Goku
>>566273784I think is name was Neko Majin V, because V-Jump.
>>566280321I think what he means is that in Super, Vegeta follows Goku around at every step, has the same training progression as Goku and doesn't really have much to offer anymore, because his character arc ended after his iconic "you're number 1" speech. He's mostly just sticking around because he's too popular even though from a storytelling standpoint, it's probably better to retire Vegeta so Goku can get newer rivals like he always did when the previous rival's arc ended.
>>566283140This exactly. Zgeta was his own character, Supergeta is a sidekick who became way more like Goku than ever before.
>>566237417>Nappa and Vegeta are elite,Nappa is mid-class, Paragus was dead equal to him and wasn't even allowed to have his kid in the elite chamber.>Toriyama claimed in interviews Raditz was mid class or somethingNo, he didn't.>He wasn't elite but he seemed to be alright.No, he's quite literally the weakest saiyan we've ever seen outside of ONE non-combattant and every single Freeza soldier literally laugh at power levels on his level.> It's the Bardock Ova that made things weirdNo, the entire franchise agree he was a weakling. Vegeta and Nappa treat him like one, everyone on Namek treat his level like it's nothing, even nameless saiyans have higher power level than him and Freeza consider his power level to be the BARE minimum to be recruited to rebuild his forces.
Yamamuro is working on the new Star Fox
>>566259937>Do you think Karin is a neko majin from the demon realm?Neko Majins aren't actual majin, when you meet one as Beelzebub in Sandland, he calls bullshit on the Neko Majin calling himself a demon.
>>566259937>>initially you would think his long life may come from the fact it is a sage/hermit, like RoshiIt's because he's a nekomata. Long lived cats gain magic powers in Japanese folklore.
>>566274031>If anything, Vegeta's popularity is the worst thing to have happened to the franchise, since we can't just move on from him, so he keeps tagging along as Goku's shadow.I completely agree.>>566280321They're not rivals at all in Super, Vegeta's role is just to be Goku but weaker and less skilled.
>>566285887This is some pre-redesign Sonic Movie shit
>>566285887It's called starfox 64 because that's many times they're gonna remake it.
>>566286331GT is weirdly the only time they sideline Vegeta for the most part only coming in st the tail end
>>566287164CARLOS
>>566285695no one reply to this guy btw, it's the usual suspect
>>566285695That's also why I think on top of demystifying the Saiyan myth, but Raditz learning about the value of hard work and self-improvement would arguably more profound than with Vegeta, because it gives him something Vegeta never truly had. That is, the experience of being genuinely mediocre.Vegeta's arc is about wounded superiority. Raditz's could be about discovering he never had superiority to begin with which is a lot harsher to accept because Vegeta always had an identity built around exceptionalism. Even when Vegeta loses, in his mind, he loses like a prince. His ego survives because deep down he still believes he's meant to stand at the top.Raditz doesn't have that luxury. He was barely above a fucking Saibaman despite being a grown Saiyan warrior amd spending years in active combat which is damming because it means Saiyan culture failed him completely. He wasn't secretly amazing or "held back." He wasn't one breakthrough away from greatness. He was really just average at best in a civilization that treated average people as expendable.Also another thing is, in Dragon Ball, it seems like the concept of training is a novelty. Even Vegeta, though he spent most of his life fighting, didn't actually train until after his defeat on Earth if only to outdo Goku. Frieza himself never trained not once until after Goku beat him. Nor did Cell or Majin Buu. That's also why Earth stands so much out despite being a backwater planet in the eyes of the universe. It's basically a freak laboratory for martial arts culture and Earth's fighters are like artisans.
>>566287907Literally nobody agrees with you.
>>566288067>He was barely above a fucking Saibaman despite being a grown Saiyan warrior amd spending years in active combatAnd that's according to the Daizenshuu, according to Nappa, they were equal. So he's even more pathetic if you just take the manga into account.>Also another thing is, in Dragon Ball, it seems like the concept of training is a novelty. To be fair, it's not just training that's novelty, it's specifically the magic martial art training the character do. I'm sure the Freeza Forces had military drills and such but they're clearly taking martial art and power level as something static you're born with rather than something that can grow.Ironically they basically treat it like Sci Fi superpowers or psionic abilities rather than the Wuxia stuff it is and that's why they keep hitting roadblocks against the Z Fighters despite using the same power source.And ironically the Demon Realm was the opposite, where they treat it purely as a mystical power instead of something you can ALSO use to punch people in the face straight up.
>he starts pretending to represent the whole thread againFucking lmao. I'm not even part of that conversation, I just recognize your posting style.
>>566288067>>566289313Also we've seen aliens completely aware of training like the Yardrat, it's just that the Freeza Force kept steamrolling all of them while dismissing all their knowledge because Ginyu had a PL of 180K and Freeza was born with a PL of 120 MILLIONS so everyone else seemed equally pathetic, training or not.
>>566289329>I'm not even part of the conversation, I'm just having a schizo mental breakdownWe noticed. Raditz is still a low class weak saiyan and everyone agrees on that. Sorry you felt instantly rejected because you were indeed instantly rejected.
>>566287907>>566289329>Try to give order and beg people to not interact with a random anon in the middle of a discussion>Get completely ignored>Fake laughs and cope about it, pretending it confirms your boogeyman beef
>>566273784>>566280473Neat
>>566287164And that was the best thing about it.>>566285695People love forgetting that there's a random nameless saiyan with a power level of 2000 in DBS Broly.
>>566289329I'm not seeing anyone come to your defense so it seems pretty accurate.
>>566287164And that was not even the best thing about it.
>>566286331Goku can't go mastered Blue/Blue Evolution. Goku can't annihilate matter and souls. Goku can't undo absorptions or splits. Goku can't go Ego. Goku even had to come up with his own trick to spam Blue after Vegeta's created hiw own first.
>Luigi again
>>566294537Ultra ego was made to be comparable to something Goku already has, which was ultra instinct. Given Ego's track record im not sure that's something he'd be envious of anyways
>>566294537Come to think as long animeonly normies go Vegeta has been above Goku for years lmao, since anime Goku never learned UI
>>566294537>Goku can't go mastered Blue/Blue Evolution.That's just the equivalent to SSJB Kaioken that does nothing special.>Goku can't annihilate matter and souls.Neither can Vegeta and Goku has Hakai in the manga.>Goku can't undo absorptions or splits.Because he won't spend 5 minutes learning it on Yardrat and that didn't even matter in the end. Making the fight LESS fun isn't a good point.>Goku can't go EgoWhich is an inferior UI.>Goku even had to come up with his own trick to spam Blue after Vegeta's created hiw own first.Which is a useless trick that was instantly dumped and Goku does better without it.So yeah, weaker, less skilled Goku is all Vegeta is in any given fight.Which is why his fight in Daima is the worst in the entire show.>>566294790>Come to think as long animeonly normies go Vegeta has been above Goku for years lmaoWhat kind of delusion is that? Blue Evolution is just a discount SSJB Kaioken, which Goku has had for multiple arcs by the time Vegeta unlocks it.
>>566289313>I'm sure the Freeza Forces had military drills and suchA training room is mentioned, but it's probably more like a gym so they can stay in shape.
>>566295423Yeah, basically the idea of training as we'd mean it IRL isn't a novelty to them, it's specifically Wuxia Training that's new to them.
>>566295423>>566296118Also people underestimate how hard actually getting stronger in DB. You're gonna be spending years punching trees in a forest to get ONE new move, like Yamcha and that's with Yamcha being a prodigy of his own.
Happy Goku Day in Japan!
>>566296616do we even count wolf fang fist as a move that shit's just him essentially punching really fast, it's like calling machinegun punch a move
>>566296813Technically, it was the Neo Wolf-Fang Fist but yeah, it's a technique. That's how martial art story logic goes.Janken was also a technique.
>>566285887The 90sonly Dragon Ball fanbase would CRAVE for what StarFox is getting.
>>566296118It also doesn't seem like a lot of places really have proper Wuxia training. IIRC:>Earth>Yardrat>Jiren's master>Angels in generalAnd even on Earth itself, the only places you can get Wuxia training are from Roshi, Crane School, and Kami/Popo, and Roshi doesn't usually take students, and you have to go through a lot of hurdles to train with Popo to begin with.>it's specifically Wuxia Training that's new to them.I do feel there is some awareness of it. Vegeta dismisses the idea of training as being something that can bridge gaps between a low class and an elite, and Freeza in FnF talks like he was angry he had to train to begin with. So maybe they know of it but don't bother because 99% of the times, whoever is born strong will remain strong, and whoever is born stronger will remain stronger. Goku growing so much is power is a massive exception to the rule.>>566296616>Also people underestimate how hard actually getting stronger in DBYeah, the likes of Goku, Krillin, Yamcha and Tien are very talented individuals who surprise Roshi with how casually they can copy his kamehameha, which Roshi took 50 years to develop. Talent makes the path to growing stronger easier, something it takes Goku a day to learn, it'd take a less talented individual years, so it's no wonder training may be dismissed in favor of being born stronger.>>566296813Even if we were to dismiss that move, he still learned kamehameha on his own, as Roshi never taught him. Yamcha is talented either way.
>>566299071>who surprise Roshi with how casually they can copy his kamehameha, which Roshi took 50 years to develop.I feel like the Kamehameha being copied is less cool nowdays because everyone has a big beam attack. It felt like the kamehameha was supposed to be special BECAUSE it's shooting an energy laser out of your hand in of itself as opposed to being an efficient or stronger version of energy laser shooting. Like it's vaguely maybe possibly stronger than the masenko probably and that's all we're given
>>566299071>and Freeza in FnF talks like he was angry he had to train to begin with. So maybe they know of it but don't bother because 99% of the times, whoever is born strong will remain strong, and whoever is born stronger will remain stronger. Goku growing so much is power is a massive exception to the rule.Yeah, that's basically what I was saying.>Talent makes the path to growing stronger easier, something it takes Goku a day to learn, it'd take a less talented individual years, so it's no wonder training may be dismissed in favor of being born stronger.And again, even in their their cases, it took decades of constant effort for them to get where they are AND several unique opportunities thanks to stuff like the Dragon Balls.
>>566299587>I feel like the Kamehameha being copied is less cool nowdays because everyone has a big beam attack.Yeah but that's because everyone is magnitude above the levels of prodigy you need to instantly 'get' techniques.Like many things that would normally be protagonist-only are basically the bare minimum requirement to be relevant in DB at this point.
>>566299619>It felt like the kamehameha was supposed to be special BECAUSE it's shooting an energy laser out of your hand in of itself as opposed to being an efficient or stronger version of energy laser shooting.Raditz was shocked at seeing it at least, but then Vegeta just happened to have a similar tecnique...>>566299619Yeah, and more talented individuals will reach that same level of power with less effort. As much as the whole four months of training in FnF was frustrating for a lot of fans, it's not out of place in DB.
