Toyble/Toyotaro is shit.
I made a general with Femhan but I failed to link it before this anon, so I guess I'll post another Femhan here
>>580104171Imagine sex between both of those Gohans.
>>580104171I actually was checking out the previous thread to make sure I didn't create this thread at the same time as someone else given how late the thread baking was, but it happened between me updating the thread, seeing nothing, creating this thread, posting it, and by the time I saw your post I had posted mine as well.
>>580104171Gohan should have been a girl
Makes me cringe how some people say "Hoping that Toyotaro CANONIZES" or that "Next movie is CANON Cooler"Like uh, no? Canon's over.
>>580104940True. Canon and DB for that matter died with Toriyama.
Latest Dark Gathering chapter was basically Ghost vs a more brutal Goku.>>580104171Cute.>but I failed to link it before this anonToo bad.
>>580104228Is it incest masturbation?
>>580102023No I mean about it being not true.
>>580106375selfcest
>>580107210Based
>>580104940Toyotaro already talked about notes Toriyama left behind and we have stuff like XV3 or Daima confirming he was indeed working on stuff. You will keep seeing things Toriyama came up with for a couple yearsAlso Shueisha still owns half of DB, the other half being in Toriyama's family possession. They can still dictate canon, legally speaking. You can personally say it doesn't count but that's just your own opinion, not reality.
Do you guys think Vincent Chansard should work on Moro? I see a lot of people online saying he fits for dragon ball and that if you don't want him in you're just jealous of One Piece.
>>580109859...Who?
>>580109859>and that if you don't want him in you're just jealous of One Piece.Obviously. But that's because Toei and Shueisha are actively sabotaging Dragon Ball while giving the moon to One Piece. That still doesn't mean I want Vincent's seizure slop in Dragon Ball. At the same time, people are being dishonest when they say DBS Broly and Daima look better than post WCI One Piece. It doesn't because of the point I mentioned before. I wouldn't even be surprised if the animators actively dulled the animation as to not upstage OP. I think Dragon Ball's animation at its peak is Kubota's cut in Super Hero. With the newer Dokkan animations being a close second. Have Moro look like that and everything's fine.
>>580104171do we prefer longer hair or shorter hair?
>>580110469>But that's because Toei and Shueisha are actively sabotaging Dragon Ball while giving the moon to One Piece.Shueisha yes, but that has been the case for about 15-20 years if not longer.Toei no. I don't get why anyone would say that at this point.>At the same time, people are being dishonest when they say DBS Broly and Daima look better than post WCI One Piece.You are probably mentally ill if you want DB to look like post-WCI One Piece. OP at this point is an "anime" made almost exclusively by people who do not talk to other staff, do not receive storyboards, and just draw what they think is cool. As most of them are from twitter as well, what they find to be cool is borderline incoherent and overly flashy animation that ignores any and all principles. I am, in fact, glad that Dragon Ball does not look like One Piece.
>>580110469I don't even understand what the hell is up with OP wank around Shueisha. I remember months ago anon posted a bunch of posts pointing out the ways Shueisha undermines DB, including lying about how much DB sold to claim it sold less... IIRC, DB and Slam Dunk Shueisha relevant, and once both were gone they struggled with sales, so being this dismissive of it is just confusing.
>>580110790Post more examples to help me form an opinion on both
>>580111209
>>580104171I wonder what DB characters would be hated if they were female. I feel like Gohan would be about the same.
Toyotaro is obviously someone related to Toriyama that didn't want an absurd amount of attention while he was working on AF. You'd have to be legally insane to think Toriyama would get just anyone to work on Dragon Ball after he died.
>>580111527Gohan is a tossup. I feel like he gets a free pass for a lot of his Mary Sue type stuff (ie, being one of the strongest people in existence starting from Age 5, and being outright the strongest character in series at Age 16) simply because people can self-insert and project onto him, but I imagine if he was a girl people would instead have crushes on him and give him maybe even a bigger free pass. For most other characters I don't think it'd change much aside from Goku and Vegeta.If Trunks was a girl for example, there would be significantly more /ss/ works involving Gohan (and /sl/ involving Mirai Gohan), but the general perception of the character probably wouldn't change..
>>580111921This is a retarded idea and theory, simply because Toriyama has a studio, one which he did not employ Toyotaro at.
>>580111527I'm not sure there's anyone who would be hated. Female characters typically have a lot of leeway with the bullshit they can pull and still be liked, and DB has very few actually annoying characters, like Zeno and Toei Roshi, and I can't imagine being disliked if they were females.
>>580103990REMINDER TO ADD IN THE NEXT OP>>580102571>>580102571>>580102571
How would you implement bio-androids in xenoverse 3? should they reach perfection over the course of the story? what would they absorb? are you taken to the character creation screen each time? should they start in their perfect form with super-perfect being a transformation?
>>580111921>would get just anyone to work on Dragon Ball after he died.Toriyama didn't get Toyotaro to work on Dragon Ball after he died.
If we got an open beta when would it be?
>>580112141It was a funny joke but actually putting it in would just make attract /dbs/ rejects to shit up the thread>>580112085I like Zeno and Roshi.
>>580111970Future Trunks would definitely still be exceptionally popular with both men and women, it's just that you'd see opinions change on which ones want her and which ones want to be her.
>>580111921>Sonic has a manga ongoing with a decent artist>it's non-canon™Oof
>>580112198Probably a few months before release
>>580112334>telling Toyotaro faggots to fuck off elsewhere will attract /dbs/hit animalsabsolutely retarded Toyotard logicism
Realistically, Toyotaro should never be mentioned in these threads since he doesn't work on the games.
>>580112386Sonic's canon being completely taken over by shitty american 'artists' and 'writers' is insane to me, it's not even a japanese IP anymore.
>>580109859>if you don't want him in you're just jealous of One Piece.No, and we'll absolutely take him off your hands.Besides we already have a few gaijins working on the Dragon Ball anime, a few spic animators helped animating the first canon SS4 transformation
>>580111921Dumb theory.Now Garland being Toriyama himself on the other hand...
>>580112723Let's be honest, this is more of a all around DB general cause everywhere else is retarded and unbearable.
>>580112151>should they reach perfection over the course of the story?My first thought was that the story should give them two androids to absorb, or have it be like 13 and give them robots. But then I realized it would have to be permanent that waySo my next thought is that Capsule Corp or whoever their creator is should give them absorption pills or something. They take them and it temporarily boosts their strength and appearance, temporarily because if you do it too long it overloads your system. The first two forms anyway. As far as the third form goes, my idea is that after a certain point in the story, whoever creates you reveals that they've been tracking your progress with those bugs that Gero used to use and can use it to boost your power, but because it's too much for your body you have to hold it in a third form. And Super Perfect being the final form would be cool. I think that should also be a race-specific plot in the storymode. The bio android cac "dies" maybe through a heroic self destruct, and then comes back like Cell did. >are you taken to the character creation screen each time? Yep. Same for Frieza's race's transformations.
>>580112723IIRC he did come up with Sealas' design.
>>580112840Eh, Garland like Toyble and most other doujinshi artists traced Toriyama a lot.
>>580112723This, and he barely gets brought up in the gacha shit generals or even in stuff he worked on (isekaislop and nu-gundam).Absolute useless piece of shit
>>580112151>How would you implement bio-androids in xenoverse 3?I wish XV took power progression into account in the story more. It always felt even more arbitrary than most DB games.
>>580111527It's a bit of a question of if it's a complete genderflip or if it's only select characters. Like if you have a girl Vegeta while everyone else is the same I feel like things would be noticeably different. Not that there would be overall less popularity, but conversations about Vegeta would differ among the fanbase, some for the better, some for the worse, and there'd probably be more vocal shipping wars about Vegeta getting together with Goku among the western fanbase (as opposed to it being a primarily fujo thing).
I have 549 hours on SZ. I love this game.
>>580112085You need to remember that there was a subset of the western fanbase back in the late 90s and early 2000s that thought Chichi was the devil incarnate and wanted GT Pan to die in a fire
>>580113059Good for you, anon.
>>580112742Don't ever let this happen to Dragon Ballespecially Kirbopher, because he seems to want to be the Ian Flynn of Dragon Ball.Don't let him work on more english content.
>>580113309>especially Kirbopher,Who?
No matter how much Sonic fans want it to be the case, Sonic isn't and never will be Dragon Ball. Worrying over such a thing is like worrying that the Mouse will own Shueisha; it's not happening.
>>580112742You realize japan doesn't fuck about Sonic right?
Vegeta's got a gun.
>>580113524Gotta doompost somehow
>>580111970>Gohan is a tossup. I feel like he gets a free pass for a lot of his Mary Sue type stuffGohan gets a pass because the only time he ever overtook Goku (Cell games), it only happened because of Goku, and Goku still bailed him out constantly. Gohan only really has a few Mary Sue traits but hardly does much with them. He's almost the equivalent of an Isekai protagonist who gets outshined by the setting's "regular" characters.>If Trunks was a girl for example, there would be significantly more /ss/ works involving Gohan (and /sl/ involving Mirai Gohan), but the general perception of the character probably wouldn't change..I feel a female Trunks would attract a bunch of female fans.>From bad, angsty future>Master/lover died>Daddy issues>Gets regularly ryona'd by 17>/ss/ with Gohan>Gets a happy ending where she's can be pretty much a princess
>>580113440Newgrounds/Fireball20XL junkie that became popular over a few Nintendo parodies (especially pertaining to Smash Bros) and original stuff, became some annoying jackass and punching back there, then went on being some popular voice actor during the 2010s.He almost voiced Byleth for Smash and Fire Emblem but violated his NDA and got fired, right when he was getting cancelled for his little "abuser" past. He stuck around at Bandai and eventually got the chance to help dub and write the flavor dialogue in Sparking Zero.He also looks like a crusty douchebagAlso pay for his college.
>>580113524What?
>>580113976Oooh, he's the guy who was bragging about how he wrote 'deep cuts' (aka fanfics) instead of translating the girl talk?
>>580112723Toyotaro has designed stuff for games just like Toriyama did, and other games also take after his content with attacks and stuff for the manga. Your cope doesn't make any sense
>>580113058You know... a lot of Vegeta's actions can read the same as a girl, yeah, just some like the Goku obsession reading more tsundere.
>>580113207True. Chi Chi just got a lot of negative points because of the way she ignored an injured Goku in Saiyan Saga, even blamed him for Gohan's condition, and her overly focusing on studying made people think she's the reason Gohan neglects his training too... Either way, Chi Chi was so detested because of those traits, not because she's a female. If anything this franchise's fanbase has a soft spot of female characters since 18 was more popular than 17 for a long time, and Selipa and Zangya were notable just because they're females and fighters.>and wanted GT Pan to die in a fireOh yes, GT Pan was a disliked one too, but it was more because she was a bitch and designated to just a damsel, despite being capable of fighting. OG Bulma but much worse.
>>580113524SEGA left their mascot to rot in the generation where it would have worked out.But i wouldn't say they didn't do anything about it, there just no killer app Sonic game ready on that one console before the Dreamcast and had 3 mediocre subsitutes (a bad racing game, a bad port of a meh isometric platfomer, and a collection of bad ports with a short demo as a fat fuck you) to go with.
>>580114267He also designed stuff for Super the games used even before Moro, half of the new GoDs are his designs
>>580113976>He stuck around at Bandai and eventually got the chance to help dub and write the flavor dialogue in Sparking Zero.Oh HE's the retard making dumbass references to game titles in dialogues? (Black saying "Bardock The Father of Goku" despite him having no way of knowing the name of Goku's father, Baby saying "This will be our Final Bout!" and the like) I assume he's also to blame for the 6 7 jokes.
>>580114775>references to game titles in dialogues?movie and game titles*
>>580113517I agree on this, but only because Sonic hypebeasts are worse than Dragon Ball's own hypebeasts.
Kirbopher is more like trying to be Aaron Webber than Flynn desu >>580114775He didn't say he worked on all of the dialogue, but there's some really obvious cases that was him behind it.
>>580114936Sonic powerscalers are somehow worse than capeshit ones, yet consistently sound like Dragon Ball ones, making them the worst of both worlds
>>580114554In spite of how much a certain minority of people are vocal about their dislike of them, Caulifla, Kale, and Kefla are still extremely popular characters, mostly because they're Saiyan females that actually get to fight.
>>580114554>GT Pan was a disliked one too, but it was more because she was a bitch and designated to just a damsel, despite being capable of fighting.I find funny how not even Heroes gave her Super Saiyan.
>>580114554Ironic, because Bulma is a genderbent Sanzo/Tripitaka and many of her character traits are exaggerations or parodies of hisAlso western fans didn't watch Dragon Ball in the day, much less read it
>>580114484If Vegeta was a female I wouldn't be surprised he'd be considered a yandere given just how obsessed he is with Goku.
>>580115470Pan is seen as damsel and comic relief so I'm not surprised. I used to theorize they didn't do so to not step on Toriyama's toes just in case he did come up with a SS design for her, under the logic that Xeno Pan only debuted after DBS started, but even before the whole Xeno business started, they still gave Trunks SS3 before DBS started, and came up with adult Gotenks before Toriyama did, so it's probably because of how she's treated in GT and nothing else.
>>580111527I actually do think people would dislike present Trunks, at least the Buu saga version, mildly more if said Trunks were a girl. Not "hate" exactly, but there would be those that find that Trunks to be slightly more annoying even if the character traits were exactly the same. Goten isn't as notable a character so there wouldn't be as much an outcry; some might grumble more about Girl Goten being a "Mary Sue" because of getting Super Saiyan so easily but that wouldn't really be enough to negate the general sense of apathy towards Goten. Gotenks I could say some might find "more" annoying (I could see some being harsher on the decision to not use SS3 for example) but I could also see some actually liking more than Trunks and Goten individually as there's more going on there.Super might change things slightly, as some of the bratty or jealous behavior wouldn't be seen "as" negatively in Trunks and there would be something resembling an arc. If we account for the pre-Superhero stuff in the DBS manga, a female present Trunks would read more as a shy nerd that some might find more endearing. Goten is consistently more active in Super even if it's relegated to more inconsequential stuff, and I could see that actually being seen as a bit more positive. Again if we account for the DBS manga, I think a girl Goten would read positively too for being more casually confident and chill than Trunks, a bit of a "Stacy" in other words (which might even extend to the GT equivalent).GT Trunks I could actually find seen as even more of a wet blanket by the fanbase though, the "no fun mom" to Goku and Pan's general antics. It's not full hatred but still enough to make them wish someone else had gone on the trip.
>>580105914It was literally this
>>580117934>needs UI undetectable god ki and extra speed to avoid being SUCC by Morooh no no no no no no
I legit can't understand what's different between Earthlings and Androids, 17 and 18's only differences in story is they don't produce chi nor can be sensed by it, huh, I wonder if that'll come into play when Moro is added to xenoverse 3.Remember, he has a natural debuff of sapping away people's strength just by being near them, through in story that only happened when he was fighting on solid ground, does that mean in game whenever you're on ground stages and fight Moro that you'll start losing ki while Moro gains it faster?, it might be too broken if they let him take your health as well to buff his own.with them confirming they're gonna add moro I wonder if that's soft confirmation we are going to be time traveling still like how the in game cutscene showed bulma's first meeting with goku.I wonder if we'll ever see super saiyan 2 and super saiyan 4 in game yet, we saw ariasu and that super saiyan 3 vegeta is in, but so far it appears super saiyan 3 is still just a goku wig and females still keep their eyebrows.
>>580120009>I legit can't understand what's different between Earthlings and Androids,None, just like Earthling and Saiyans. That's why it's being added instead of demons.>>580119751>extra speedSo literally just powering up? Like in the meme?
>>580120164And the god ki thing you conveniently ignored. And iirc Goku also mentioned using UI's gimmick of moving without thinking so he can fight while being drainedFar from >just power up bro
I wish humans got a cool power up like Super Saiyan...
>>580120363>Just powering up is far from just powering upNot really.
>>580120164there has to be something differenating them from the other races to ustify playing them over being a saiyan or a humanI'm still of mind to believe Rom's race is going to be playable after story mode, think about it, she's the only demon we've seen thus far in trailers and in builds, she has a mysterious power different from anything we'eve seen before and she's freely using that power while our saiyan friend and our human friend stay in their base form and it's clear tap has the great ape transformation there's no other reason to hide the player character cutting off great ape Vegeta's tail unless they're not ready to reveal how the time travel part of the story yet.Speaking of that, the fortune telling gyaru makes me curious, why mention her in officel blurbs and show her tent, then Ginyu and not the character themselves, maybe she's a demon too, the open showcasing of Daima alongside Super makes me think this thing is going to be full of OG, Z, Super and Daima material but all GT material is post game ust like xenoverse 1, I'm even more curious how much empthasis they put on every race having equal transformations and most of all how you can go around in your work uniform or whatever other drip you wantOh, and how nobody noticed the cast are wearing customized versions of cast characters clothing like Dr.Gero's outfit and brain dome now, accessories might be customizable now
>>580120778>there has to be something differenating them from the other races to ustify playing them over being a saiyan or a humanEh, probably just slightly different stats I think unless they REALLY play smart with the forms and storylines.
>>580120743>powering up, getting untraceable energy and movement that keeps going unbothered after your energy starts being absorbed in first place is far from powering up and nothing elseYes. Cope.
>>580120778>there has to be something differenating them from the other races to ustify playing them over being a saiyan or a humanThey'll probably be more ideal for ki based builds and have a natural auto ki regen
>>580122427>Powering up, having an utility you already had and that did nothing previously and powering up is just powering upYes, welcome to a magic martial art setting.
>>580122638>ignoring the third trait of UI which no other prior form has and which was the gimmick Goku himself mentioned to be useful against MoroOkay you are just a dishonest cuck, good luck with that
>>580104083
>>580122895>cuck out of nowhereBeing mad won't change the meme and how accurate it is.>Basic trait of any God form is a 'trait of UI'Lmao
>>580107024The original source behind it was Reekdom, that should be telling enough.I don't know who personally disqualify it but is it necessary at this point?
>>580120009>Remember, he has a natural debuff of sapping away people's strength just by being near themIn general he has to actively steal it though, as he always points his arm towards the character to steal. There was pic related where it seemed he was passively stealing, but Vegeta had just thrown him in the water so he likely actively stole energy while out of sight.>through in story that only happened when he was fighting on solid groundThat's weird, could swear he stole energy while flying at some point but he's always in solid ground. Doubt that's a specific limitation though, as techniques that can be used on the ground can be used on the air.>it might be too broken if they let him take your health as well to buff his own.Video games typically don't make Buu as impossible to kill as he is in the manga either, as he gets normal HP. Moro may get a passive like that, but hardly a game breaking one, and if anything they might just make him work like a long ranged Gero (Meaning he has skills to steal from a long distance).
>>580120363>And iirc Goku also mentioned using UI's gimmick of moving without thinking so he can fight while being drainedAll he did was move too fast for Moro to drain him.
>>580123650>and if anything they might just make him work like a long ranged GeroWhich is what he is.
>>580114554it was because dbz attracted(attracts) a particular breed of macho/wannabe-macho guys who hate girls being in their "their" space on principle. >go play with dolls or something and let the men do work
>>580114676There is no game SEGA could've made on the Saturn that would've done Sonic justice. The Saturn simply did not have the horsepower to translate Sonic's particular gameplay into 3D in a satisfying way. Sonic skipping fifth gen was unironically the best course of action. I've thought that what they should've done was instead shift focus to Alex Kidd, their Master System mascot, for that generation. Make some kind of platform-brawler that plays on Kidd's satirical take on Journey to the West. give him different kung fu weapons he can use to differentiate the game from Mario 64, fill it with silly jokes and 70s chopsocky movie SFX and stuff. Did you know the Saturn had no meaningful 3D platformer releases? during the era where a good 3D platformer was a guaranteed system mover?
>>580123820
>>580115764Yandere is explicitly about wanting the person all to themselves, and being willing to kill anyone who dares get between them. Tsunedere is about hiding your love for someone with an abrasive personality.
>>580112364girl Trunks would come off too much like a fanfic Mary Sue, I'm afraid
>>580125195Only if you consider regular Future Trunks to be one.
>>580125036>Yandere is explicitly about wanting the person all to themselvesIt's more about being unstable honestly.
>>580125195>a fanfic Mary Sue,Reminds me of DBM's Mary Sue who's not even a mary sue, she's just kind of a weird OC Donut Steel.
>>580125195Like Trunks already doesn't come off as one with that debut.
>>580126021That's not a Mary Sue, that's a Donut Steel.
>>580126195>Son of two characters who have no reason to be together and screws over the love interest of one of those characters>Shows up out of nowhere to kill Freeza who somehow isn't dead>Second super saiyan>Comes from an impossibly edgy future world that makes no sense>Would rather kill villains quickly with no regards for warrior's code and the likeI don't see why Trunks having a different set of genitals would change him from "Donut Steel" to "Mary Sue". Everything about his debut reeks of shitty fic.
>>580123820Oh God you just reminded me, the manga does ignore important things just like the anime, out speeding Moro shouldn't fucking work. Moro was able to passively absorb energy when he fought Vegeta and Goku on Namek. I remember people were wondering what new techniques Goku and Vegeta were going to learn in order to counter it.But Moro never does that again, except when he fuses with the planet at the end.I hope the anime version of Moro uses actual magic and not just energy absorption.
>>580125595if someone presented you with a fanfic where a new supercool character obviously inspired by some unrelated movie character showed up randomly to interact with the canon characters, announced he was the son of one of the main characters, showed off he had the same abilities as the main protagonist and effortlessly defeated the strongest villain said protagonist just risked his life to defeat, you'd call him a mary sue.
>>580126765>Moro was able to passively absorb energy when he fought Vegeta and Goku on NamekToyotaro retconned it into a kind of sucking beam and Goku and Vegeta just couldn't really see it, sense it or react to it. And then Goku just kinda can.
>>580120659Is Four Witches cool?
>>580126721A Mary Sue would a fixed all the problems. A donut steel is an edgy OC, which OG Dragon Ball Trunks fits perfectly.
>>580126195There's a lot of overlap between the two. Really, Donut Steel is just the term anons created to describe the same archetype because they most likely weren't aware the term Mary Sue already existed. I guess you could differentiate them by the fact DS's rarely have an actual fanfic behind them; they're usually just a character page describing their basic identity because the creators are too lazy to even try and write a story about them.
>>580126765>Moro was able to passively absorb energy when he fought Vegeta and Goku on Namek.Like I said here >>580123650, this was the only time he really seemed to passively absorb energy, but Vegeta had just kicked him into the water, and immediately after Goku notices energy is being absorbed (But doesn't say anything because he's a retard), so it doesn't look like he's passively absorbing anything, and any other time he steals energy, he's actively doing it... Unless there's another moment I missed.
>>580127364I don't really agree, Donut Steel originate from overly edgy OCs in Sonic that are just even edgier Shadows that tend have ridiculous sounding backstories and attributes due to the format it's presented in.A Mary Sue is a much older archetype from Star Trek where you'd usually have a Vulcan chick that would be better at knowing emotions than Spock, a better leader than Kirk etc and that the entire ship would fight over to be her lover and / or friend while her enemies are bad people BECAUSE they are her enemies instead of them being her enemies because they are bad people and do bad things.Of course neither term has a hard definition so it changes and overlap depending on the discussion.
>>580126021I wonder how donut steel OC autism is looking these days. Feels like it's mostly a millennial thing, and we're all honestly getting too old for that shit now
>>580127261Not cool enough. Useful, yes. But not cool.
Back to the regenerator thing, I wanna name Alucard from Hellsing as a case that's weirdly both a 'Good' exemple and a 'Bad' exemple.Good in that honestly you mostly care about him absolutely brutalizing and MOLESTING his opponents so his regen just going 'Lol, didn't hurt' at everything doesn't matter.Bad in that despite the above, it kinda mean all his fights are shit, including the ones that ARE supposed to be somewhat even like Alucard vs Monster of God Alexander and he kinda just hint at having cooler attacks, moves and abilities that he just...never use cause he just 'lol regen' through it so you really never have a GOOD fight with him, even the climactic ones (Best fight in the franchise is Sera vs Captain and even then, Captain just kinda obviously hold back the entire time).I wonder if a Uub that really has Buu's ability would be in a similar situation (instead of just being a human with a big PL).
>>580127261I find Goku's counter to it cooler than Four Witches itself. Also the name's dumb.>>580128045>I wonder how donut steel OC autism is looking these days.Pretty much the same but they revised the format so it looks a lot more reasonable despite essentially saying the same thing as before.
>>580127881what I mean is they're flavours of the same concept. there's nothing stopping a Mary Sue from being a turbo edgelord, it's just that particular brand of emo dweebery just happened to be popular with kids around the time the internet was taking off so it got assimilated into early meme culture. the purpose of a Mary Sue is a self-insert character who is better than the main cast for no reason other than to stroke the creator's ego. a Donut Steel is a self-insert character who is better than the main cast for no reason other than to stroke the creator's ego. whether he wears black nailpolish and says "Damn" as he teleports behind you doesn't fundamentally change that core purpose.
>>580127364>>580127881I'd say Trunks' debut itself is where he's full on Mary Sue energy. Afterwards he's just a jobber, with the story never really allowing him to surpass Goku and Vegeta, or even be smarter than them (He only did surpass Goku after he went to HTC first, but then Goku trained less than him and was far stronger). I still don't see how Trunks being a woman would make him into a Mary Sue character if he were to be the same otherwise. Only the debut would make a female Trunks have full Mary Sue energy (Arguably more since female fighters in DB are a rarity), but afterwards she'd be a jobber just like regular Trunks.
>>580128478>>580128485Trunks wasn't better than Goku tho, he immediately get his sword counter with one finger.
>>580127881like, here's the most iconic Donut Steel. he's explicitly described as being super smart and super strong with all kinds of special powers that makes him better than everyone else. hallmarks of a Mary Sue. the only real difference is how other characters in the universe are said to respond to them. a Mary Sue usually is instantly loved by everyone in the canon cast, and they all worship the ground he/she walks on, whereas a Donut Steel is surrounded by people who hate him/her and only exist to be fodder for the DS to test his powers on.I think this difference can be mostly attributed to how Mary Sues were invented by girls whilst Donut Steels were invented by boys. girls want to have a big high-status social group that adores them, whilst guys want to feel like they're a warrior who can hold off the world without breaking a sweat.
>>580129063Fair enough, good point.
>>580128338I just think it's funny Alucard is both canonically a rape victim and canonically a rapist that had a harem.And when he cames back, he's kinda in a throuple with Sera and Integra and Pip kinda is Sera's boyfriend, same dude who used to do brothel crawls.All while both Sera and Integra are basically 50 year old virgins....They should form a club with Broly.
>>580129469DB, Hellsing, Sailor Moon and Yu Gi Oh should form a support group for Abridged survivors.
>>580129469I wonder if Alucard would like Silver's Hyper Gun.
>>580128338Wolverine from X Men and Deadpool are good regenerators. just because they can heal super fast doesn't mean they don't feel every hit. getting stabbed hurts them just as badly as it hurts a normal person, they just heal the damage much faster and without the need for medical attention. regenerators need to feel the pain of their hits, to disincentivise them from just standing there no-selling them.
>>580130402Depends on the specific story and run honestly. They both range from 'If you bisect them or make them lose too much blood too fast, they die' to 'Literally come back from a single cell'.
>>580130402>>580130501Also they both go from 'Slowed down by a good stabbing' to 'Literally doesn't break their stride as they get continuously liquified alive' in term of pain.
>>580130402>getting stabbed hurts them just as badly as it hurts a normal personSometimes, other times they just shrug it off. Wolverine's regeneration makes him look really incompetent since all he does in a fight is charge in and win by attrition because whatever cuts he receive will be healed, and he's supposed to be a great fighter...
>>580130501even the single cell form, imagine feeling the pain of being torn apart on a cellular level and not actually dying from it. >don't break stride as they take massive damagethat's a problem. that's regeneration done wrong. Piccolo definitely feels it when he gets his arse kicked, for example.
>>580130747>and he's supposed to be a great fighter...Genuinely losing his regen and / or using a katana instead of his claws somehow make his fighting skills increase a thousand fold every single time.
>>580130848Clearly the claws and healing are his power limiters kek.
>>580130978Wolverine goes from having to be careful to not get dogpiled by a bunch of vanilla thugs and taking damage while using his claws and regen to just Katana fighting his way through entire city the moment he pick one up, especially if he also lost his regen and is dying somehow (bonus point for if he's poisoned).
Mary Sue itself is a term that originates from actual Star Trek fanzine fanfiction back in 1974, with the character in question being a parody of a specific character type that fanfics of the time tended to include, relying on familiarity with certain fanfic tropes (the character being the self-insert OC for a female writer, hence the name). Over time the term has evolved and shifted to include different fanfiction tropes and narrative trends. Trying to legitimately call Trunks to be one doesn't really work, it's trying too hard to retroactively apply a more modern variation on the term while ignoring the actual story presence and use of him as a narrative tool in the story of Dragon Ball.When Trunks arrives, yes he is shown to be another Super Saiyan who effortlessly defeats Freeza and Cold with a cool sword, but it's meant to build a sense of mystery, one that's answered quickly and shifted onto him being a new thing for Goku to measure against. His ability to easily slice Freeza to bits is contrasted with Goku blocking his sword with one finger, showing that for as strong as this new character is, he's no match for Goku as he is now. This emphasizes the reveal of the Androids and the danger they present (they killed everyone else can kick this guy's ass, and he killed Freeza without breaking a sweat) and why he was sent back to the past to save Goku from the Heart Virus (Goku is already way stronger than him, maybe they can save the future if Goku lives). The reveal of him being Bulma and Vegeta's kid is not really something that should be removed from its context either; Dragon Ball has never been a series that put much emphasis on romance in the first place, and Bulma and Vegeta are an easy way to have a character like him come into being.Trunks really isn't much of a Mary Sue or Gary Stu or even a Wesley Crusher when looked at in full context, because being any of those needs a character to be viewed within series and narrative context.
>>580131545What about Trunks in Xenoverse tho?
>>580131682He's part of your mission control with the Supreme Kai of Time and an occasional character mentor while being an established character, and doesn't have much presence outside of it. The times he actually does directly intervene in something, it's a 50/50 chance of him doing something helpful (hacking the Big Gete Star) or fucking up spectacularly (Ginyu body changes with him). Your CaC is closer to the concept of a Mary Sue or Gary Stu than XenoverseTrunks is.
>>580132582I know, I was mostly joking cause he's kind of the butt of the joke in XV.
>>580133234Apologies, sometimes it's hard to tell when people are making a joke and legitimately asking such a thing.
>>580133740I mean your answer was interesting regardless
>>580128338Alucard would be such a Mister Satan fanboy, it would be hilarious.Satan would probably try to lecture Integra about the whole 'enslaving and experimenting' business given his own thing with Buu tho.
Alright anons, time to decide.>/ss/ between Cell Arc Gohan (Male) and Future Trunks (Female)>/ss/ between Boo Arc Trunks (Male) and Boo Arc Gohan (Female)
>>580134554>>/ss/ between Cell Arc Gohan (Male) and Future Trunks (Female)Probably that one
>>580134554I decide to send (You) to Dead Zone.
>>580134860Based.>>580136459Cringe
>>580134554Future Trunks' sudden appearance would have a bigger, more substantial impact, and get more people invested in the potential of the pairing (especially with the revelation that Future Gohan trained Trunks). It would get far more attention.
>>580134554>/ss/ between Cell Arc Gohan (Male) and Future Trunks (Female)Feels like it would get a lot of attention and art, a forbidden fruit that comes from a number of younger guys developing one of their first crushes on F Trunks and self-inserting as Gohan (and a smaller but not insubstantial number of girls that have were Gohan shotscons having an older girl with a tragic backstory to involving an older Gohan to fantasize about).>/ss/ between Boo Arc Trunks (Male) and Boo Arc Gohan (Female)Feels like one of the dime a dozen pairings that fem Gohan would be shipped with. The history with Future Trunks would get some attention boosting it but it wouldn't be a main pairing; would be less common than, say, Piccolo or Future Trunks or the like.The former is the clear winner in this case.
Place your bets on Human transformations:>Power Pole Pro staying>Power Pole Pro being removed>Potential Unleashed/Beast becoming Human-exclusive>Max Power>No-Ego Zone>Something new made up just for XV3
>>580141478>No-Ego ZoneWould make sense with Sparking 0
>>580141478Honestly I'd love a proper "Henshin" transformation that takes this Great Saiya Sentai thing the game has going currently to the next level. Give a "Magical Girl/Guy" option to it too for extra fun. Maybe not exclusively human but something that'd be fun for humans to have.
>>580143140The Kamikaze fireballs were so fun.
>>580143140I feel like a Superhero/Magical Girl transformation would be an all-races sort of thing. Hell, isn't that the point of the Great Saiya-Squad?
>>580143608They were, in the anime at least.>>580144437Yes, that's why I said,>Maybe not exclusively human but something that'd be fun for humans to have.
>>580144790>in the anime at least.Are they even in the manga?
>>580144996They existed for a pretty small, unfunny joke about calling Krillin handsome and 18 ugly (which doesn't even really make sense because two of them look more like 18 and they're not presented as especially "ugly").
>>580145434Oh, I meant specifically the guys. I know about the girls.I still can't believe what we got was the IMPROVED version of their dialogue too.
>>580145587I genuinely can't remember any of them showing up in anything more than the background.
>>580144790Sorry, I'm tired. But yeah, a transforming hero transformation would be neat, as long as they give us full suit customization. Great Saiyaman 1, 2, 3, 4, X1, X2, Papayaman, Katopesla, Clean God, Jiya, Ribrianne, Kakunsa, and Rosie already make up a decent framework for the transformation. Plus, both Katopesla and Ribrianne have shown that these hero forms have further transformations on top of that, so imagine that amount of customization!
>>580145653My god, Toyo's TOP was so boring.
>>580145868Also a lot shorter because Kale eliminated a majority of the fighters by herself.
>>580147685It's funny Toyotaro literally did something the anime mocked.
wtf Iyoku is a literal DEVIL?
>>580151671>Smaller company that's drawing the ire of an industry giant by taking one of it's big name hide the artists working for them so they can't be threatened or blacklistedMake sense to me.
>>580151671>We have already seen this with ToyotaroWho's irrelevant and was just Toriyama's drawslave in addition to having NOTHING to do with CCT or Toei so why should they give a shit about a Shueisha employee they never collaborated with?
>>580152031He mean in the Moro arc reveal and the zero mention of Toyotaro at all.
>>580152072Again, he won't be working on the anime version and while Toriyama gave him a long leash, it was still a leash and Toriyama was the one who 'owned' the manga Toyotaro was drawing for. They have no reason to mention him, especially with the Shueisha drama, it's better for them if they don't.
>>580126021The reason for his debute is he was too weak to defeat the androids
>>580151671ye sounds like someone is just mad Toyotaro was rightfully not mentioned for the galactic patrol anime and made up this whole bullshitlike, it's not impossible of course, but so far the only real "proof" is "Toyotaro wasn't mentioned", yeah no shit he wasn't
>>580152208They should put him on the OP, they credited him in the ToP opening.
>>580154963We haven't seen the Galactic Patrol's OP tho so who knows
>>580103990Og DB LoG updates.https://youtu.be/JS9NjbOdV2w
>>580157665I'm real curious what's happpening with the earthling, her hair turns red and her eyes turn red too, the only forms we see do that are super saiyan 4 and super saiyan god she has brown hair before they suddenly change at first I thought it was a flash between different CACs but it's the same girl, look at the red ki around her, Kaioken's ki aura doesn't look anything like this
Ah, it should have been obvious but I went from being hard stuck on bottom b4 with bardock this season to A4 this season after switching to bulma fairly quickly. I can't believe OG gekishin is ending without them ever releasing ssj2 gohan.
>>580157665The Freiza seems to be getting the 100 percent full power, he starts out with the typical freiza clan aura around him, then his eyes go red and he's suddenly buffer and bigger on the close up,
>>580157665The majins are interesting, this is clearly a transformation sequence as well with the pink ki swirling around as the character and that looks like a kid buu stance, I guess pure majin is returning
>>580157665Aside from the Saiyan, the Namkian is pretty clear cut transformation sequence even has the same tree that shows up on Piccolo's back when he enters Orange, I like it. by the way, the Saiyan girl' base hairstyle is a different ponytail from the one we've had in breakers and xenoverse, you can see it earlier in the trailer
>>580157665The androids don't have a transformation sequence, instead it's just one of them using a Trunks move, it's probably the "FREIZAAAAA" slash super getting a cinematic after a guard break.Anyway, what do you guys think what's going on with the earthling characters? Did they accidentally confirm super saiyan god or 4 without meaning to or did they get toriyama to give humans a brand new transformation for this game?
Yuya Takahashi is such a fucking GOAT.Can't believe this guy is still just a freelancer with all he's done.I'm sure he'll be involved in the new Beerus anime at least so can't wait to nwely masturbate to his art and animation.
>>580159709I'm pretty sure that's Tapion's ult
>>580160054Crazy how little we've had of Ultimate Gohan looking like himself in DBS so this random Toppo fight scene stands out.Meanwhile his major ToP fight against Dyspo was lackluster in both art and choreography.
>>580127261needs dodonpaX4
>>580158978Well in theory, anyone can gain god ki. So maybe we can get apprenticed by a GoD?
>>580151671Apologize >ahhh but Shueisha is bad too!!Never this bad though
>>580151671Ajay was right again awardIn 2 years we're going to see a whole lot of stretches whether it's actually something from Toriyama or not.
Doesn't Ajay dislike Toyo too, why would he care?
>>580164716This applies to other artists too.
>>580104171Now that we can choose our CAC's combat style, Femhan can be replicated in XV3
The CAC autism is gonna go wild this time around, I can feel it the era of hallow, onia, the troublemakers, drallic and that other guy is over.
>>580166720I'm gonna make the troublestoppers.
>>580158978watch it be something akin to Chichi's red aura when she gets mad for comic relief
>>580159709heroes just gave the non-saiyans their own red eyed god form so its probably that
What's her odds?
>>580151671Think of this as a shield, considering this general is happily going to eat up the animated Moroslop because they spin it as Toriyama's doodoo wipes.
>>580171121I love Super Smash Bros. Melee™
>>580169094>>580169820I dunno, the saiyan has the same start up animation for super saiyan even the same aura that's present on the male is here in this image even the pose, the only difference is the close up on the eyes, I think they cut the female character off before the full transformation because A. they didn't wanna reveal SS4 or SSG yet, probably saving that for the October Comic Con event and B. they mistakenly put that in the trailer without meaning to.C. the odd answer is that humans can have access to the saiyan transformations and actual saiyans have tails in this game. HOWEVER! builds have shown us John and Jane are classified s saiyan and earthlings in the menu screens but those builds were ALSO made specificaly to be shown off to the publicI AM LOSING MY MIND
>>580171121>said she'll come back>never appeared again sincemany such cases
>>580173290customizable transformations are also a remote possibility
>>580166720im going to make gohan
>>580159381Pure Majin is already confirmed, anon. They showed it in a blink and you miss it think later. It also implies Final Form is also a transformation
>>580166720I really need this shit to inspire other IPs to follow suit, particularly Bleach and Kingdom Hearts.
>>580176064If Frieza race has final form, 100% full power and maybe even second or third form that is an insta pick for me.
What would the android race need for you to pick it for your main CaC?I want 13's super form as an awakening, general tao's grenades as a ki blast option, and giru's chest missile as a super skill
>>580175907you can't make Gohan, i'm making Gohan
>>580176385playable self insert fanfiction is such a winning combination that it's suprising that there's so little anime games that allow it. Granted, even with most CaC autism you're not allowed to really do anything to the plot much
>>580178886let's both make gohan and we can fuse them and make gohan
>>580166720>and that other guyFinally, some recognition!
>>580179047Attack on Titan 2 allowed you prevent some characters deaths, and I would assume that the 3rd game that's coming out this December will allow you to do the same
>>580181840Honestly wack to me that the series is still going, given I remember the first games coming out for like the 3ds and stuff. Most anime games dont get to go for that long
>make an android>pick Eis' or Nuova's ki blast skill>hand still doesn't transform into a cannon
>>580186103I wonder if android race will create a subgenre of rare Megamans
>>580186103>we get the frieza henchman arm cannon as an accessory>its on the wrong side for most one handed blasts
HEY MEGAMAN, YOU'RE A LITTLE LOW ON AIR
Speaking of arm cannon...https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5pIHWu1UJz0
>>580187646Cool mod, though I am surprised he doesn't have a flamethrower attack. Would've made more sense than a purple beam.
>>580112151>How would you implement bio-androids in xenoverse 3?simple anon start at perfection state then add forms on top of it. like super perfection or Max form.
>>580131545Trunks is anything but a Mary Sue. I'm actually very surprised how consistent Toriyama was when writing him. He continually kept shitting on Trunks since his debut.He shows up and kills Freeza, then he warns Goku about the Androids but it turns out that he's wrong about his premonitions. Then he gets his ass beat by 17 and 18, and concludes they're stronger than their future selves because he could "at least put up a fight with them." But as we learn in the Trunks manga special, the only reason he could even put up a fight with them is because the future Androids were toying with Trunks and Gohan, and they didn't even use half their power. This is an info Gohan took with him to his grave making Trunks an unreliable narrator.Then against Cell, Trunks started to act cocky which is so unlike him because he assumed he surpassed Vegeta with that USSJ form but as we learn from Cell (and Goku) that form is nothing special and anyone can do it, even Vegeta knows it and he intentionally let Trunks do bad training to make an example out of him. So Trunks is not only an unreliable narrator, he's also an idiot with 0 fighting experience (to be fair, it's not really his fault).He looks like a Mary Sue but quickly ends up being an anti-Mary Sue and Toriyama's favorite punching bag.
>>580192352Honestly I wonder what the point was with bringing Trunks back after he left. He kind of doesn't get up to much that'd need him explicitly to be around
>>580192352>that form is nothing special and anyone can do itNo, not anyone can do it. It needs RoSaT training.And Trunks in that form was stronger than Cell, just slower so he couldn't hit him.
>>580193691after a certain point he was just there to interact with vegeta and die in front of himIt's easy to forget that Vegeta wasn't actually a good guy yet, and spent the saga in the same "I could still conquer this planet, if I felt like it" tsundere zone piccolo used to occupy until he died for gohan and merged with nail
>>580194392>And Trunks in that form was stronger than Cell, just slower so he couldn't hit him.I really don't think grade three is somehow SIGNIFICANTLY stronger than mastered super saiyan Goku. As even that Goku was weaker than Cell by a lot. I can buy that grade 3 trunks is stronger than holding back cell but no way that's stronger than cell in his full power
>>580194392What Trunks is doing is literally just bulking up, though. And that's something anyone can do as seen with Roshi, Freeza and Cell. It's not a technique exclusive to SSJs. The only thing that makes it Saiyan-specific in Trunks' case is that he applied this universal energy bulking concept while transformed into a SSJ.
>>580194650powerlevels actually have diminishing returns. its just that when you're already fighting at a fraction of lightspeed, being even 1% slower than your opponent can be a crippling weakness
>>580195179That's not what i'm saying, though. I'm saying Cell is explicitly holding back a lot a lot and no one can get even remotely a read on how strong he actually is (except Korin for some reason that's never explained) So I don't buy that Trunks was actually competitive with Cell's full power.
>>580187646somebody on ATF is working on some Pan and Panzy mods, including one for Super Hero Pan with an all-new model.
>>580194412Is Burter moving so fast that it looks like he has 3 arms or does this artist just fucking suck?
xenoverse 3 being announced got me interested in XV2 again. I bounced off it pretty hard when it launched because I played so much of XV1...is it worth going through XV2 these days? Or should I just wait for 3? Mostly asking because of this daunting list of DLC.
>>580195493he's not holding back he's just using his qi smarter rather than juicing out more of itIf you go all out you literally explode, as seen with cell, vegeta, and chaotzu.
>>580197814No he's absolutely holding back, explicitly so. We see him hold back his speed against vegeta until he does it one time to show off how outmatched he is. Krillin brings up that what Cell hit him with was a slap and he was deeply holding back. We explicitly never see Cell use anything close to his full power until he fights Super Saiyan 2 Gohan
>>580198056that's just not wasting energy. mere efficiency
>>580198678the actual mechanics of *how* Cell is holding back is irrelevant to my point that cell *is* holding back
>>580172798It's just a loud minority that hates Toyotaro in an autistic way, it doesn't really matter
>>580158978Kaioken
>>580197814I've never seen the implication that using your full power = you explode as opposed to the idea that those three characters were just explicitly putting all of their power INTO an explosion. Exploding is just a separate technique not just the base idea of using all of your power
>>580186103>>580187646I hope we get the super 17 machine gun hand thing too, and maybe an energy sword like Zero's...
>>580199541kimg kai warns goku that the technique is dangerous because if he fucks it up real bad he'll cause his powerlevel to spike too high for longer than a split second and explode
>>580198816That's irrelevent. We're not ralking about that right now we're talking about slow Trunks
>>580194650>I really don't think grade three is somehow SIGNIFICANTLY stronger than mastered super saiyan Goku. As even that Goku was weaker than Cell by a lot. I can buy that grade 3 trunks is stronger than holding back cell but no way that's stronger than cell in his full powerSpecially since Goku was more than 2x stronger than Vegeta, and he's still weaker than Cell. Grade forms have an unknown power increase, but I doubt grade 3 is a 2x increase from grade 2.
>>580201201Anon what, the first thing I said in this conversation is "I don't think Trunks is stronger than Cell, because Cell is holding back" How exactly Cell is holding back isn't super relevant to the idea that Trunks' power is not actually comparable to Cell's true power in any way. Unless this is autism about the whole Jiren and Broly stuff in how actually no one's really getting stronger and instead just making their Ki use more efficient. But even then switching power levels for efficiency levels doesn't actually mean much in practice it's just another number that signifies power.
>>580201049He certainly does say his Chi will explode, but I don't think he meant that Goku's body would literally detonate as much as it would just fuck up his body, which is what ended up happening after the x3 and 4.
>>580123820You are many chapters too late, he mentioned it when he was with Merus
>>580201918I wonder if Nappa and Raditz still reside in Hell or have they had their souls cleansed and reincarnated by the time Super takes place.
>>580206390I don't think interplanetary genocide machine will be let off after measly few years. Their depravity will likely take hundreds of years to cleanse.
>>580206780That's assuming Dragon Ball's Hell is completely based on Buddhist traditions
>>580206780Wasn't it stated the only reason Frieza hasn't reincarnated was because he's stubbornly held out beyond reason
>>580151671>IT'S ALL TORIYAMA TRUST ME, NOBODY ELSE EXISTS JUST BUY OUR TORIYAMA PRODUCTThat's both disgusting and pathetic
Honestly I never cared who was making the dragonball stuff as long as it was good. I liked the SDBH manga despite toriyama having nothing to do with that.
Yeah I'm not buying the game until we get a demon race. I'm very pissed off that they added Androids but not Demons, the fact that Rom even has what looks like an original demon form is literally just them pissing in our eye. If I had a preorder I would have cancelled it on the spot upon learning, doubly so since it isn't even in the plans for DLC. It makes me sad too because I usually don't do roleplay shit but I already had my own backstory planned out for a potential demon/glind race.

>>580218261So we're somehow less retarded than the people people posting on the other social media sites. Huh...
>>580230205/dbg/ is unironically the best place to talk about DB online. Kanzenshuu has more and better info but it's the personal magical realm of a bunch of tranny jannies.
>>580230205>>580232139The issue with Kanzenshuu is moreso that all the oldfags have settled opinions and won't move on anything, and the only new people the site attracts are annoying faggots mainly.I don't think it's worthwhile to discuss DB anywhere honestly.
>>580219517Considering how they didn't even plan for it, it means it's likely a year after release. The fact that it isn't even in base is already unacceptable.
>>580232139lol no it's not. When this general isn't dying then it's a flame war were different groups of people (or maybe just two guys) spend days arguing about something stupid and any other post that doesn't relate to their argument is either ignored or gets accused of being (insert the other guy here). /dbg/ isn't even the best place on the site, that goes to Dragon Ball /v/ threads if they make it past 100 posts.
>>580157665>Frost DemonsIs this Multiverse's only real influence on DB? Even the whole "Broly's power grows without limits" was a fanon belief before Multiverse (Although, Multiverse exarcebated it).
>>580218261I doubt it. We just got two trailers (for DBS Beerus and XV3) on top of an interview with Hirano. And on twitter there's discourse about that One Piece animator coming on Dragon Ball. There's enough content for these retards to milk till Beeru actually releases next month.
>>580234776arguing about really stupid minutae is pretty normal in fandom spaces, I feel like you're just gonna get that anywhere where people feel particularly strongly about any piece of media
>>580234776The fact you don't feel welcome prove how good /dbg/ is
>>580234930is that the one one piece animator that makes the mouths spaz out on one piece or is that another guy
>>580235457It's the french guy that makes the seizure inducing impact frames.
>>580235584aren't those pretty hype moments and aura I thought the watchers of today loved those. I like my coreography over all else but what's even the controversy
>>580234776It's one guy who picks fights with anyone who gives him (you)s.
>>580236530You're literally talking to the person you're complaining about.
So uh, what kinda CaC do you guys think you're gonna make. I'm hovering somewhere between a fridge and just copping out and making a saiyan because super saiyan 4 sounds cool
>>580234776>that goes to Dragon Ball /v/ threads if they make it past 100 posts.There's this odd persistent idea that /v/ threads about anime are really good, and I can only imagine it's spread by people who don't watch anime.
>>580237380Depend on the forms and customisation options. I made a Fridge for XV1 and 2 so I might change it up
>>580237380I'm curious as to what Androids brings to the table, but I'll most likely go for a Saiyan
>>580237410the only place you get good anime discussion here is /co/.

Mark my words. Pan WILL be able to go super saiyan in XV3, BUT it will only be for a parallel quest.

To unlock Kefla, does I have to play ranked for those 10 matches or quick fight and VS CPU works?
>>580243624In Gekishin Squadra I mean.
>>580187646>Paywalled for almost a month despite having quality issues (these robots don't ever say full sentences like "You ready?!" or "Then I shall bring my fight to you" or laugh comically like "Bwahahahaha", nor do they strike a pose like in 2:37)Big yikes, what a scam.
>>580243624>>580243732It works yes. Beginner one can be done pretty quickly. I'd advice to wait about 5 minutes before ending a match because players typically use CPU battles to do missions, and 5 minutes is enough for most of them. Specially since "Defeat 2 bosses" shows with some frequency.
>>580245373Thanks for the info.
Anyone playing on that new DBO Omega private server? What's the best DBO server anyway?
>>580245713>Anyone playing on that new DBO Omega private server?I played on a bunch of servers, last one I tried was Ultimate.>What's the best DBO server anyway?They're all kind the same
>>580242097I'm sorry to say, but it's painfully clear that Pan never going SS is an edict by Toriyama himself.
>>580246987Just you wait, Toei will bullshit their way into making her Super Saiyan and will say that they found some concept art from Toriyama hidden away somewhere.
>>580226394Calm down Shitlagir.
>>580247232And ruin the joke? That is something Toei would never do!
Toyo won.
>Hoodweebs on twitter are big mad and claiming DB is a Dark Fantasy space thriller or a 'space opera'.Forget not having watched OG, they basically only watched out of context clips of the Freeza saga's fillers.

I like Goku

Does anyone have the image of “Mai breeding monkeys”?

Bandai posted a lot of information about the Overhaul for Gekishin Squadra in a QnAhttps://dbg-squadra.bn-ent.net/en-us/news/rp_gkq_0k543
>>580277283>>580277425Based
>>580277470It doesn't actually give much concrete info
I'll say it. "F" (Maximum the Hormone) is overrated. Only a Chilling Elegy has better vocals, better instrumentals, and most importantly fits Frieza's character way better.
>>580278667>"F" (Maximum the Hormone) is overrated.Never heard of it but Chilling Elegy is SO good it's unreal, especially when you get the pay off of the earlier lyrics, where the wind obey its new master and the moon hid its face.
>>580237410Anime threads on /v/, if they aren't used as a cover for some shitpost and if they make it past a certain amount of replies, usually have more coherent discussion than /a/ threads and are more alive than /vg/ threads. Last time I was there I ended up getting better Naruto, Bleach and DB discussion than I got from /a/ and here.
>>580278856Prove it, link a good one.
>>580277470>can't have the old game rules because 'muh new camera angle'>got rid of the sub rules because 'muh new camera angle'>NPCs? bosses? can't have em, new camera angle>gotta reduce the roles down from 3 to 2, why? new camera angle>oh yeah and those special mechanics some characters were built around? don't work with the new camera angle, so gotta get rid of em>couldn't figure out how to make ults work with the NEW CAMERA ANGLE, so they're just gonna be a 1v1 cutscene now hahaat some point it just starts to sound like an excuse
>>580281145Don't forget they're gonna make the attacks smaller because of the new camera angles too so now they'll look weak as fuck.
>>580258364isn't dark fantasy mostly an aesthetic before anything else? The designs of dragonball are far too goofy to fit into that
>>580277470>"Some characters will also have access to a MAX Super Attack, which features more elaborate animations and different damage values. In most cases, MAX Super Attacks will be obtainable through capsule just like emotes."ARE YOU FUCKING KIDDING ME!? GACHA ULT ATTACKS THAT DO DIFFERENT DAMAGE VALUES!??????? THIS GAME IS DEAD BEFORE IT EVEN STARTED
>>580281145what does Gine have to do with bread? why not Pan, whose name is literally 'Bread'
>>580283398
>>580281145Toriyama died because he got a new camera angle and couldn't cope...
>>580282912yeah they mentioned that previously in the announcement trailer, though i guess some people thought it was just gonna be an animation thing
>>580283696This scene will NEVER be animated because they won't bother reanimating SH in 2D due to Cell Max.Thanks Cell Max.
>>580278856>I ended up getting better Naruto, Bleach and DB discussion than I got from /a/ and here.Because all discussion for those series has been exhausted. All /v/ does is reheat the same old talking points that everyone has already gone over a dozen times.There's a reason those threads are predominately for shitposting now, all of those franchises ended over a decade ago at the youngest.
>>580284180too many spots, pls understand
>>580284369I guess there's stuff to talk about with the TYBW anime for Bleach. I've never watched Bleach but i've heard a lot of people bitching about the direction of the anime so far, saying it's not fixing a lot of the bad stuff from the original run even if it does have hype moments and aura
>>580283696Why were so many people upset about this scene? He hadn't ever met Pan up until this point.
>>580281691I'm more shocked by the 'thriller' thing cause that's SO far removed from DB, it's insane.
>>580282912It's somehow even more pay to win than ever.>>580284369I notice he didn't link any good threads when I asked.>>580284525>I guess there's stuff to talk about with the TYBW anime for BleachThe manga's been over for years and that arc already happened there.> I've never watched Bleach but i've heard a lot of people bitching about the direction of the anime so far, The manga's version was shit to begin with so yeah, not surprised it's also bad.
>>580284696As a baby he did.
>>580285936In the manga? I honestly don't remember. I know he found out Videl was pregnant but maybe he just forgot over time.
>>580285996 (me)I just skimmed through the manga and yup, he does in the single panel.
>>580284696Gohan canonically lives literally next door to Goku, at least in End of Z. regardless, the idea Goku had never met her would imply Gohan never bothered to try and introduce his dad to his own granddaughter, which is wildly out of character for Gohan.
>>580287553Doesn't he live in Videl's house in the super continuity
>>580284525>it's not fixing a lot of the bad stuff from the original runwere you talking to gerardfags or something? because that's like the one thing that was particularly bad in recent episodes i can think of, other than people being salty over ichigo getting turned into a rug for a few minutes by the guy with poisonhax who could do that to pretty much anybody if he wanted
>>580277283Does that image exist without Mai? Just the background.
>>580289060Idk man I don't know anything about bleach i'm just going over what I saw people bitching about. I think the main thing was bitching about Ywach and about how his almighty stuff is handled even more poorly this time around compared to the manga
>go to the Kanzenshuu thread for Super Redux>check around the latest trailer drop>see a handful of folks saying its time for Nozawa to step downA bit surprising, honestly.
>>580290445I mean for health reasons i'd rather have her not scream her life out as like a ninety year old or however old she is. She has understudies doesn't she?
>>580289609well i guess it'll be the usual 'wah he's too OP' then, which i mean yeah he's fucking god at this point what do they expector it could be uryu countering it in the latest episode i guess, but that was already set up in the manga there just wasn't much of a payoff compared to this time
>>580290610Nozawa already picked a successor and is personally training them, yes.
>>580287021Almost everyone in modern DB has memory problems>Goku forgetting Senzu Beans/Mafuba seal>Piccolo forgetting Gigantification/Namekian language>Gohan forgetting stuff every 2 arcs etc
>>580295879I think it's the issue of the Z fighters just having so many different ways to solve the plot that the plot has to write out for them to work. Back during Saiyan/ Namek saga and such they didn't have any good options and had to throw everything against the wall to barely scrape by but ever since androids they've had to hit the group with several idiot balls for plots to happen
>>580296193True. We need some arcs before Raditz instead of after Buu to get some real strategy again.
>>580296315I mean I think the tournament of power was pretty good. The way the tournament is structured inherently deletes most of any cheese they can do so they have to actively engage with the plot fully.
>>580296493Well they had to take out Buu the haxlord for it to work.
Wait what? How do they expect it to be any fun if we'll only be able to move a straight line despite the new camera view?
>>580297141Fair enough, but that wasn't really because of pride or something but was fully accidental. I think that's less of an idiot ball than cell or especially buu saga.
fusions 2
>>580216452Kaioken X100
>>580290445>>580290610>>580293564I don't understand why she didn't retire during Daima. Swapping out with a new VA when they turned into toddlers the first ep would have been a decent send off. Not just for her but any other VA that wanted to retire.
>>580309064I think it's because Nozawa herself genuinely just loves this job and wants to do it until she dies. I don't want her to do this because I feel like it's gonna take a toll on her health at this age but I don't think anyone can stop her. At least she's doing what she seems to genuinely love from the bottom of her heart. she LOVES voicing Goku.
>>580297340By vertical, do they mean flying?
>>580277470>>580281145I hate mobas but this unironically sounds worse. What the hell were they thinking? Why couldn't they have just taken the models and made an entirely new game instead of making this unplayable abomination?
Is Kubota working on Moro?
>>580309064Because it was merely created as a web anime that went into TVs and they didn't plan for it to have any lasting consequences on the series.
>>580310432Too bad. I want Super Saiyan 4 and I want it to be combined with MUI so we can get SS5.
>>580309195>I think it's because Nozawa herself genuinely just loves this job and wants to do it until she dies.that's the plan
>>580293564Hopefully it's a man this time.
>>580310896why are you like this
>>580310816Too bad she couldn't protect Goku from the trash that was Daima.>>580310896Why? Nozawa did a good job on her end, at least.
>>580289495It's not exactly the same but here you go
>>580310896I don't care if it's a man or a woman voicing Goku. Though, if I had to pick one, I would pick Kappei Yamaguchi who voiced Ranma as a boy. He also voiced Fu.Beerus is already voiced by Koichi Yamadera who voiced Ranma's rival, Ryoga.
Goku now voiced by Hatsune Miku
>>580327917...I need to hear this. Someone give me a Miku charging a Kamehameha.
>>580323614>Toei announces they will use AI to translate Schemmel's performance into Japanese
>>580332380sean please this isn't your dream journal
I really wanna see more of xenoverse 3, give us an hour long presentation while playing it with the various six races and 3 or 4 missions
>>580309968I sincerely hope he is. I don't understand why people glaze Shintani so much when the franchise's animation peaked at Kubota's cuts from DBS:SH.
>>580293564Nozawa's successor had better sound like this:https://youtu.be/cud0BGVCDqE
>>580309064>but any other VA that wanted to retire.She DOESN'T want to retire so that's why. I have no idea why you thought she would want to retire.
>>580310896It's insane how you can't fathom the concept of voice ACTING. You're on the same level as retards who insist Voice Actors should be of the same race and / or disability as the characters they voice.
i am bored, spit ball your xenoverse 3 CACs , what hairstyle you're hoping makes it in and what form or race you hope gets added post gamefor exampleI hope Caulifla's hairstyle is inI hope that glind/demon race gets added and Rom's transformation is their awakening also if freizas get 100 max power and final form what's that gonna look like with clothes on?
>>580344987>what's that gonna look like with clothes on?The Fridge Clothes in XV are made from Fridge flesh basically so I imagine they'd just morph into the transformation.Demons / getting in would be cool. Definitely what I'd pick if so.
>>580344987I already made my XV3 character concept, Andui, in XV2 because I was tired of waiting for it. The idea I had for her was that she comes from Age 1000 but travels back in time to help with some missions in XV2, so I'd make an "earlier" inexperienced version of her in XV3. I should be pretty set with the Launch hairstyle for her, but even more long fluffy styles like Hasky or Piiza would be great too.I could just headcanon her as it anyway, but I think it'd be so, so based if they added Ribrianne's race officially and you had a customizable magical girl awakening.This wasn't part of the question but I'm also hoping they allow you to color skintight clothes. It really annoyed me that the custom clothes they added toward the end of XV2 as part of the Festival of Universes wouldn't let you color the tights, you could only color like the armor on Vegeta's outfit for example. The colorable outfits they showed off in the trailer gave me hope but I need to see colorable tights DIMPS
>>580342593Nta but that logic goes both ways, it's acting and a male VA out there can do the Nozawa voice so why wouldn't you get a male in this case? It's a shonen and there's a bit of a shock when kids find out the MC is voiced by a woman that doesn't need to happen. Modern shonen with wimpy characters like Deku and Okarun all use male VAs. If Naruto and One Piece were 2020s era manga gettiing their first adaptation they'd be males too.
Should I go for it? Will there be loyalty rewards in XV3?
>>580349641>Should I go for it?It's an interesting time capsule if nothing else. Painfully mediocre to play even compared to XV2 though.>Will there be loyalty rewards in XV3?Probably not.
>>580349447>Nta but that logic goes both ways,No, it doesn't. 'It's voice acting' doesn't go 'both ways' with 'I am retarded and need for Goku to be voiced by an alien martial artist who looks japanese'.>It's a shonen and there's a bit of a shock when kids find out the MCNo, there isn't, women have been voicing male characters forever, including in the west. Hell, women have been playing male characters in theater for millennia and vice versa.>Modern shonen with wimpy characters like Deku and Okarun all use male VAsYeah, you got a whole two exemples so what? We still have women voicing men in many animes.>If Naruto and One Piece were 2020s era manga gettiing their first adaptation they'd be males too.Lol. Lmao.
Xenoverse 3 achievements have leaked.https://www.exophase.com/game/dragon-ball-xenoverse-3-steam/achievements/
>>580350073is that fucking old chronoa? Bossu is in!
>>580350073Seems to be an actually original story that does Z / Super recaps in the middle for some reasonHilarious
>>580350073new Goku outfit confirmed?
what the fuck is that
>>580349917>Yeah, you got a whole two exemples so what?The two examples are the types that would have likely been a woman in the past. How about you name some modern shonen, the main character, where they use a female VA for a male? That's not common at all anymore. Even he kid from Yugioh Sevens is even a male.
>>580350073Lmao they leaked the evil time God of destruction who is probably the main villain
>>580351145Skater Gator (Supervillain)
>>580350073THE QUEEN OF /dbg/ IS STILL RELEVANT
>>580351145Something that was already leaked a while ago
>>580351191I knew geekdom was right
>>580351145>>580351349Holy shit is that not the original design for Beerus.
>>580350073https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mw6Ehz5BVcE
cute girl detected
>>580351534It was obvious Reekdom was right. You can usually tell which leaks of his are true and which are bullshit by how he handles them.When he talked about the nonexistent bug fusion, there was no talk about how it happened, when it could happened, not even what it looked like. Meanwhile he knew enough about Marva, Kuu and Duu and the other characters to have them drawn. And he knew about SS4ku and Daima Vegeta enough (described 4ku as something GT fans would be happy about, Vegeta as a Super Saiyan 3.5).I think he gets vague plot points that he either speculates on himself or his leaker gives it to him for kicks, but he does indeed have someone on the inside feeding him desgins.
>Give Piccolo his yellow arm things>Give Krillin scelra>Frieza doesn't look like naked pink lizardwhat gives?
>>580351164>The two examples are the types that would have likely been a woman in the past.You realize in the past there was also characters like that voiced by men, right? Just like right now Nozawa's situation is still perfectly normal and common, right?
>>580351145>>580351191>>580351349It's him... the Lizard Wizard...
>>580351349Came so close to Akatosh being the Time God of Destruction
>>580350428> that does Z / Super recaps in the middle for some reasonBecause anime games are obsessed with making you play the anime you already watched for some reason.>>580351145Looks like a DQ monster.
>Destruction Is Only the Beginning... >Reroll an ability 10 timesHuh?
>>580350236>>580352141She's only grown more beautiful with age. Truly the best girl
>>580352141Is this even Chronoa, or are we looking at a potential daughter?
How big is this game's story going to be again?
Thinking of playing XV2 again, even though my release day CaC save got corrupted or something of the sort.Should I grab the DLCs I'm missing and start over from the beginning? They're the ones marked in green.
>>580352374A totally original character named Klonoa
>>580351091Looks like it.
>>580351557Same idea but I thought ogrus was blue
>Og DB Bulma and Roshi>A Roshi with glasses like GT Roshi'sHuh.
>>580352493>Should I grab the DLCs I'm missing and start over from the beginning? They're the ones marked in green.At that point, probably.Also is there a bundle or something to buy all DLCs at once?
>>580293564Proof? Somebody said she was using ai after her death, though I'm not sure
>>580352558Holy shit, new outfits for Goku are so rare, especially in games. Wasn't the last one the Naruto crossover one?
>>580352861>Somebody said she was using ai after her death,Nah, she just let her voice be recorded for AI use in ads, that's all. Doesn't even have anything to do with death.
>>580352923>Wasn't the last one the Naruto crossover one?Oh wait, there was the Nazi Goku one in Gekishin Squadra too
>>580352553Wahoo
>>580351091We already knew that
There's a Kid Goku one too
>>580352374She's what Boss and Old Boss made together after holding hands
>>580352374Can Glind even have descendants?
>>580350073So the game starts off with the beginning of OG, veers into an original story, then goes through Z and Super, THEN Chronoa returns and we have to deal with the GoDoT. I guess the Time Patrol stuff happens halfway through, but what does that have to do with becoming a superhero?Also, I guess this kinda confirms that the Z movies and GT are not in the base game. Makes me thing non-canon stuff is gonna be regulated to DLC, which would explain the "SS4 awoken DLC" rumor.
>>580354152They can have siblings born from the same tree, but not descendants.
>can't play XV2 on Steam Deck because of EACgod I fucking hate EAC>>580352772>Also is there a bundle or something to buy all DLCs at once?I don't think so.
>>580354378>I don't think so.That's a shame.
>>580352141>>580352374>>580353679No... no... NO!!!IT SHOULD HAVE BEEN ME, NOT HER! ITS NOT FAIR!!!
>>580353192why is he not dead
>>580354547you say it like being dead means anything in dragonball
>>580350236>>580352141>White hairWhy's her hair white? Is it to line up with the hair color of other glinds? Because it's hard to believe she suddenly got white hair in just 300 years.
>>580354547Goku can just break dimensions by screaming and move in stopped time, if he doesn't wanna age, there's not much time can do about it.
>>580354654Her hair went white early because the events of xenoverse 2 were just that stressful. YOU try and tard wrangle time patrollers
>>580354654What if it's naturally white and she just dyes it to make herself look younger?
So why does she have white hair and gray eyes now?
>>580354287>non-canon stuff DLCMy bro... relegated to DLC...>>580354635It does, every situation they're in just skirts the rules on way or another.
>>580354654She learned UI
>>580354547There's time fuckery plot again
>>580353679I can't believe Kai Marriage actually became canon...
>>580354798Probably a Toriyama redesign.
>>580351713Did Baba wish herself young?
What the hell is this thing?
Why does Trunks look like a nerd? Also, which Trunks is it, Future Trunks, Main Timeline Trunks, Xeno Trunks?
>>580355105>>580355115Trunks (Forma De Gohan)
>>580354798I see her hair is longer.>So why does she have white hair and gray eyes now?Maybe it's a Toriyama redesign? Her costume looks a little different too, it now has only one sleeve.
Apparently the XV3 leak happened because a SHITTON of games' achievements got leaked at the same time.https://www.gematsu.com/2026/09/persona-6-and-persona-4-revival-steam-achievements-surface
>>580354798Because she wants to appeal to the GILF lover audience
>>580355115Probably adult main Trunks working at Capsule Corp
I guess this is the witch that makes the Mystipix. I'm kind of disappointed. I was hoping it was some kind of alien or demon.
>>580355692I mean, Baba's not a demon
>>580354547Probably due to one of the following-This is GT Goku who seems to have effectively gained immortality-You wish Goku back to life with the Dragon Balls later in the game-Someone uses the Dragon Balls or the time machine to bring Goku to Age 1000-Whatever's keeping Bulma around and young is doing the same for Goku
>>580355839why would it be gt goku
my hero
>>580354798Maybe it's a Universe 6 variant
>>580354798dunno how i feel about this redesign
My villain
>>580355945idk
>>580356139I'm guessing this is his small form, judging by the tiny arms, I wonder what his anthro form will look like.
>>580356139Wasnt the Toei concept for Beerus a lizard? Maybe he has the whole thing of being able to turn someone evil with his ki that was planned for the original Beerus (Although, maybe not since Cumber could do that, and both XV1 and 2 used it a lot).
>>580356139hmm the fat guy from heart of darkness
>>580350073>Xenoverse 3 achievements have leaked.
Are these the actual models or just the cgi renders?
>>580354798>>580355115These redesigns are fucking abominable.
>>580357654>Mondo Cool>21st Budokai Kid GokuSAIYAN ARMOR KRILLIN WAS RIGHT THERE
>>580358552I doubt Funimation, Bandai EN, or whoever's writing these even knew what images would be paired with the text.
>>580354798got daimafied like shin
>>580354947This, all kais have white hair and green earrings
>>580360889Wait, you're right, all Kais do have white hair. Colored hair was just a Dimps thing.
>>580350073>Make a super attack strongerWhat does that mean?
>>580362671Maybe skill tree shit? Or just the boost from Sparking?
With this leak, I can deduce most of Xenoverse 3's roster. Since Toriyama helped out on the game, he probably wanted the game to be somewhat canon, so all the non-canon characters seem to be omitted, judging by the achievements. This would probably get rid of all the following characters (for now):>Quelled Goku>Supervillain Yamcha>Ultra Supervillain Vegeta>Turles>Slug>Supervillain Frieza>Ultra Supervillain Frieza>Cooler>Final Form Cooler>Supervillain Cooler>DBZ Broly>Supervillain Broly>Supervillain Cell>Great Saiyaman 2>Pikkon>Supervillain Kid Buu>DBZ Gogeta>Janemba>Supervillain Janemba>Ultra Supervillain Goku Black>Ultra Supervillain Jiren>GT Goku>SS4 GT Goku>GT Trunks>Pan>GT Vegeta>Majuub>SS4 GT Vegeta>Super Baby 2>Super 17>Nuova Shenron>Eis Shenron>Syn Shenron>Omega Shenron>Supervillain Omega ShenronThat's 35 characters on the chopping block. Maybe more if Towa, Mira, Fu, and Demigra are gone, but they may be a coinflip. Either way, 146 (XV2's roster) - 35 = 101 characters returning. Since the roster is gonna be 130 characters, that means 29 of those characters are NEW! Speculate away...
>>580364429>Brett>Tap>Rom>Kid Goku>Master Roshi>Dr. Gero>Arinsu>Time God of Destruction>Adult Trunks (?)That's 9 new characters already
>>580364429You forgot Android 13, Bojack, and Tapion, that'd put the number of returning characters UNDER 100.
>>580362671>>580362828It's probably gonna be like Kakarot where you can upgrade the Kamehameha all the way to being a Transcendent Kamehameha.
>>580364429Canonshit is so GAY.
nuPokemon looking designsHorrible
>>580365398You're gonna get OG and you're gonna like it!
>Trunks if we lived in the Good TimelineUnfortunately... we don't.
Who is this supposed to be, and what does she have to do with Brett?
>>580366284Ugly 18 recolor
wtf
>no movie>no gt LMAOOOO welcome back xv1
>>580366284His mom
>>580366892The Sparking 0 dub / localization is SO bad
>>580366950SCAMco reselling cut content as DLC what's new
>>580355692>>580351713Leave my wife alone
>>580112151I would've made it so they can't transform or 'power up' but instead have infinite stamina. linear growth rather than exponential, so their base stats are always lower than a saiyans but keep up with endurance and relentless assault.
>>580369161>instead have infinite staminaThere's no stamina anymore and infinite stamina would make you invincible in XV2.
>>580369223which is why their stat growth potential should be trash. good at roflstomping skids, get utterly torn apart by any experienced player. same as the actual Androids Vs pre and post time chamber Goku Vegeta Trunks and Gohan.
>>580354798>HAG Form BTFO againLoliGODS we won so much. Real Chronoa doesn't have any ugly transformation.
>>580355839>-This is GT Goku who seems to have effectively gained immortality>>580353192 doesn't look like Adult GT Goku, so I doubt it.They'll probably just pull a Super Goku forward to assist John CaC in solving whatever the crisis of the moment is desu. The usual.>>580355274>Persona 6 achievements>Phoenix Wright vs Professor Layton PC port confirmed>Star Wars KHIV worldSweet.
>>580353192It's funny how Goku with a collar immediately make me think of Black.
>>580364429Xenoverse 2 actually has 157 characters if I remember correctly. If you remove all of the non-canon characters, you're left with 115 characters, which means there's 15 new characters. Still a decent amount, but not as much as you think. Though that depends on whether or not Dimps is streamlining the roster. Will SSG, SSB, Omen, and UI Goku be their own slots again, or will the devs finally make them forms Goku can transform into?That is something we'll have to wait to see.
>>580371086>ugly transformation.As much as I find either one to be hot, transformed Chronoa did nothing after sealing the demon realm>Mind controlled by Mechikabura>Still jobs>Transforms later against Aeos>JobsI'm not even sure she even used it again after Aeos wrecked her... I'm wondering though. If Toriyama was involved on a re-design, did he come up with a name for her? I know Chronoa is the name Dimps came up with, but it doesn't line up with the names glinds have in DBS (Something about old Edo phrases), and they could simply say Chronoa is the name she adopted, much like Nahare adopted Shin as a name.
>>580364429The game's main story could always only have the characters he came up with, but the others are available anyway for side quests post completion or something like that, and use Chronoa's presence as an excuse. Not saying that'd mean everyone gets added, but it does allow some leeway to have some Z movie villains in base roster.
>>580354798Because we live in a world post Dragon Ball Daima.
>>580355105Xeno Trunks' grandson or great grandson, or Xeno Trunks (Forma de CEO/Forma de Imitador del Gran Tour).
>>580351713That's definitely the Gyaru baba like character whose probably inside this tent. She's who you go to in order to summon other characters to use for the soul system, I fucking knew there was an odd cut between this scene and Ginyu appearing for a reason! but man,, it's only been 200 plus years since xenoverse 2, how is Chrona so old now?
>>580352141>>580354798
>>580356139His collar resembles Champa's, hmm...
The fact that they're on achievements tells me we're probably meeting these characters in October's trailer or a VJUMP leak.As for the anon saying non canon characters aren't in, the majin female was wearing android 21's outfit, she's a non canon character, not to mention you can see a saiyan CAC wearing Turles's armor customized
>>580372204I don't like hags and I don't like this concept one either. Normalfaggots cried about lolinoa too much so I'm glad she absolutely BTFOs them for 10 years straight.
>>580373662Turles' puldrons aren't flat like the CAC's armor. If anything, it looks like a recolored version of Minus Bardock's armor.
>>580372865Yeah, look at her eyes, she has the same eyes Pan has now when decades ago she had blank black eyes, she now has grey ones, her potara are also generic green like every other kai in toriyama's new art style instead of the yellow she used to have too.I'm now convinced we're gonna be recruited into the time patrol at the end of this story
>>580356139He kinda looks like that one shadow dragon
>>580355692Reminder that we have customizable accessories now so chances are you'll be able to dress as her
>>580375161He looks like the lizards in DQ.
>Moro Arc DLC confirmed>I'm gonna assume Granolah Arc would either be included or first pick for DLC 2>GT DLC seems like a safe bet, given fans' love of SSJ4 and Pan. There were those leaks for SSJ4 being DLC too.How do we think the movies and Daima will be handled? I could see Daima just getting lumped into GT because both have SSJ4. Movies could be lumped together into a single movie themed edition DLC. Towa, Mira, and Fu will probably be saved for a Xenoverse 1+2 & DB Online recap DLC. Aeos and Sealas might be included in that. I just don't think they're popular enough to get their own independent story DLC.
>>580373662I mean, we know the base game won't include the heaters but we saw their locks on a CaC in the trailer. CaC options are different from full characters.
>>580354259Zly would've crushed her head and then say>"Just as I thought, nothing in there at all."
>GoDoT is evilOkay, so we're probably gonna kill them and either take over ourselves or help someone else take the title. If it's not John 1000, who do you think it'll be? Could be this new Goku. Could be we have to track down this nerd Trunks and train him into xeno trunks so he cam finally marry Chronoa.
>>580375818We did? I saw Android 21's hair but I didn't see that, which one was it, Gas, Elec, Oil or Maki?
>>580376435
>>580376579That doesn't look like any of their hairstyles it's way too short
>>580375696Granolah isn't coming until like 2030+ it's nowhere near the first or even tenth pick.
>>580376724It looks a bit like Elec's to me. The front locks frame the face. The top is out of view, but it might look "short" because it's up in a ponytail.
>>580367114customers told them they're okay with it
>>580376776We know the first DLC is Moro to line up with the anime. If the anime continues past Moro into Granolah why would it not be high up the list for synergy purposes?
>>580376986Because it's only Galactic Patrol that got announced and being worked on. There'll be another lengthy break because they'll have to milk Moro for all it's worth.
Do they really? aside from Moro himself there's not much else in the arc to sell since Ultra Instinct Goku is already everywhere this arc is just him officially learning to do it at will without getting the shit kicked out of him first like he was in Heroes and Xenoverse 2, Granola's arc has more selling power with a new Vegeta, a new Freiza and the arc afterwards has a new Broly, for merch sells they'll want those as fast as possible.
>>580371789>Phoenix Wright vs Professor Layton PC port confirmedAnd my hopes for Ace Attorney 7 die for another two years
>>580377506Anon they sold Gohan Beast doing Makankosappo from different camera angles for like 3 years straight.They absolutely will sell every Moro goon that isn't absolute fodder. Saganbo then boosted Saganbo then Shimorekka, of course 73 with his various absorptions. Merus disguised, Merus in his Angel attire, Full Power Merus etc.
>>580376986Anon, it's not 2010s anymore. Things take a lot of time to come out nowadays. Even One Piece went seasonal.
>>580377782Not really. Foddder had it rough in the Super era. Shisami, Tagoma, Botamo, Magetta only appear in gachas, most of the ToP roster isn't even in gachas.
>>580377993It was different because Super was long running and had tons of heavy hitters one after another (Hit, Black, Zamasu, Toppo, Jiren). Now it'll be a single arc and they'll take everything from it.
>>580377782I just thought of something, can they even use Meerus using his full might? Bro fucking dies after 2 punches because that's against Angel code to fight with conviction, now if he were fighting Moro under the guise of "Your magic is shit,bro, look, at my full power I can no sell it" he probably would of been fine, Whis knows how the skirt the rules all the time for personal gain, but Meerus was too much like Future Trunks to think like that
>>580378283Reborn mortal Meerus would probably be the playable character.
>>580378381Does he still have ultra instinct as a mortal? actually, do we even know how strong he is as a mortal now?
XV3 will be my first XV and I look forward to it!
>>580378283It's a game I don't think they'll care about the rules. And well, Merus did fight at his full for a brief while.
>>580378171Years have followed and no one cared. Also, XV DLC aren't typically even adding that many characters. SZ has a better shot depending on what they wanna make of it.
How many awakenings do you think are in the game? I was surprised to see that the achievement list doesn't have a counter for themI mean so far we've seenSuper saiyanSuper saiyan 3Power awakening and possibly seen100 percent powerfinal formpure majinkaioken or some unnamed new form for earthlingsand the influence from super and daima is everywhere this achievement list does prove what some anons guessed, Rom is the only member of her race in the cityI wonder how much of the story is centered around her was there anyone who said she might be like Mira where she's an android-demon and that's why she has a unique transformation? The appearence of a god of destruction like person as well as redesigns for xeno chrona and xeno trunks make it likely, through now I wonder, if they're here, where are Ace, Mee an Fu, surely they're still apart of the time patrol if xeno trunks is, that fucker should be long dead 200 years later yet he doesn't look to have aged that much at all
>>580378458Hope you have fun, anon!
>>580378798>was there anyone who said she might be like Mira where she's an android-demon and that's why she has a unique transformation?I said she might be Fu's daughter
>>580381085Thanks anon! I'm excited for it.
Well I'm not.
>>580375696>Moro Arc DLC confirmedSource?
>>580376986>We know the first DLC is MoroWe do? I'm out of loop.
>>580383674>>580383760https://www.thegamer.com/dragon-ball-xenoverse-3-will-add-galactic-patrol-arc-as-one-of-the-first-updates/
>>580351191So what did the leak say about the aligator GoD?
>>580385571>has a cute chibi form and cool fighter form>destroys whole timelines >dragon/lizard/gator man>evil
>>580376986You have to remember how they are doing things>Dragon Ball Super Beerus>Dragon Ball Super Galactic Patrol>Dragon Ball Super Zeno (or whatever they call the remaster of Black and ToP arcs)THEN we would get Dragon Ball Super Survivor or whatever they call Granolah's arc, it's gonna be 2029 or 2030 by then so we know we aren't getting those as DLC until much later
>>580385571no god is evil>inb4 zamasuhe was right
>>580385803WE ARE NOT GETTING GRANOLAH AND THAT IS FINAL
>>580385803>Beerus>galactic patrol>Frieza>MoroYou do know they're coming out every other season, right?
>>580364429>he probably wanted the game to be somewhat canon BRAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAPknew this leak would attract disgusting filth like you. Honestly /dbg/ deserves it for how they treated me on their discord a few years back. How many of you guys are struggling to "Trump's" America now by the way? You could have been eating good 0 struggle, too bad for you.
>>580350073>the three main DBZ sagas are in>only the post-anime movies from Super are in, and mixed into one to boot
>>580385437Surely "one of" is the key phrase here, nothing implying it's DLC1. Only thing we should take from it is that it won't take years after the series comes out.
>>580350073my hero and villain
>>580387285What's your bet for first DLC?
I don't care much for DBS but I hope Granolah is in because he looks like he came from Chrono Trigger.
Here's your new God of Destruction
>>580387516Daima. XV3 is an ancient project, so they probably didn't incorporate into the base roster. Like Super Hero for Sparking Zero.
>>580387843Agumon was the best boy so it is fine>bu-but that's his digivolutionstill him
>>580387957Daima is already in the game anon...
>>580388072Digimons really peak at Champion level, design-wise.
>>580387516GT, like xenoverse 1
>>580387843>terrible bond shitgive us a real evil dragon
>>580287021goku drinks beer???
>Gekishin maintenance extended for another 4 hours
>>580388791Yep, I'm pretty sure Funimation censored him taking beer out of the fridge on the ride to Namek.
>>580388919didn't he put that back and get a sports drink or something
>>580389352yeah but only because it's no good for training
No idea if i want to make another saiyan in XV3 or do something else. I'm so sick of the god forms and just want ss4 as my endgame transformation. If Fridges can go into something like cooler's final form i feel like that'll be funner than Golden.
>>580354152Nope. Glinds are sexless and pretty much just fruit people considering they grow from trees and risk going extinct because there aren't any more of said trees therefore don't reproduce like humans do. They also very likely don't have genitalia like humans and Saiyans but they present themselves in a way that we associate with the human concept of gender. Arinsu looks very close to what we associate with being feminine, but essentially she's not female per say. She might have breasts but breasts aren't a sexual organ.
>>580364429>DBZ Brolynow you know that's not going to happen
>>580390232Yeah, thinking the most popular version of Broly is not going to be in this game is just wishful thinkingEspecially when this game is going to rub for a long, long time
>>580389498Same, love the concept of OG super saiyan 4 but hate the magic pants and kid transforming to adult. I don't like nu post-senility toriyama ss4 and its weird cartoony proportions at all. It's terrible that toriyama raped db with daipa before he passed.
>>580364429Demigra might not be but I doubt Toriyama isn't going to use Towa and Mira for some story stuff he gave them
>No Xeno Demons, Fu, etc>No Time patrollers>Redesigned Chronoa>Time fuckery related plot but with God of Destructions this timeXenoverse/Heroes version demons finally retconned/erased.I wonder if it was a decision by Toriyama and how much of the plot/concepts did he do for this game before dying. The alligator God and new Chronoa look like something late Toriyama would design.
>>580390940I mean we don't actually know that there's absolutely nothing there aside from chronoa. Towa and Mira could easily still show up
>>580385987lmao they already changed the sparks of angry SS Vegeta to be purple rather than blue, you know they wanna sell UE figurines and cards
>>580390940>>No Xeno Demons, Fu, etcNot surprisedTowa and Mira weren't created by Toriyama, they're not his ideas. They're Daiki Miki's idea, who worked on DBO, and Toriyama just liked their designs.
>>580391131>Towa and Mira weren't created by ToriyamaThey are created by Toriyama, Chronoa too, what isn't was the designs we know them for but Toriyama still wrote up the plot and those characters existence.
>>580390940>Xenoverse/Heroes version demons finally retconned/erased.I doubt it. You gotta remember that the Time Patrol operates in their own pocket dimension. Just because they probably won't show up in Xenoverse 3 doesn't mean they no longer exist, especially considering the scene where Fu looks into the future in the final XV2 DLC
The naming of the achievement kind of inherently implies TokiToki is still around, so I guess Chronoa probably isn't changed too much since xenoverse
>>580391251I dunno about Chronoa, but Towa and Mira weren't actually created by Toriyama, they were Miki Daiki's creations, who worked on DBO but Toriyama completely changed their designs in a similar situation to Bardock and his gang in the OVA. If I remember, he even avoided sharing Mira's initial design.
>>580391626You just reposted what I said, Toriyama wrote the outline for DBO, which includes the plot elements of time breakers, Kai of Time(called lord of time at the time iirc) and Fu.Design is a different thing but those are still his thought babies
>>580354378bash -c 'exec "${@/START.exe/bin\/DBXV2.exe}"' -- %command%Use this as a launch option in Steam.
>>580391626That just means he designed the characters under his supervision, not that he literally created Towa and Mira as concepts
>>580391324i'm expecting her to be the exact same minus the random redesign that won't be mentioned by anyone in-game
Genuinely find it funny how it looks like we're going to do a Z recap for absolutely no reason. At the very least broly and cell max are combined but frieza, cell, and buu just have their own individual missions, for some reason. At least it looks like we're not doing saiyan saga
>>580391721No, the entire concept of Towa and Mira traveling through time to collect dark energy to revive the Demon Realm along with the Time Breaker army was developed by NTL's design team and Daiki Miki. Toriyama approved the story direction, did some revisions and redesigned Mira (he approved Towa with no edits), but the Time Breaker narrative framework was pitched to himLikewise while Toriyama was consulted on the designs for Xenoverse, neither Chronoa (or Demigra) came from him either. He only offered suggestions on the direction they should take and gave final approval (as he does for pretty much everything in the franchise)
>>580392358>I thinkNot really a confirmation, it’s been advertised that DBO’s plot outline was created by Toriyama and even for post DBO media it’s always stated that Towa and Mira are created by Toriyama, created/=/designed by the way, they always specify which.>xenoverse designNever said that, read againThe concept of the LORD OF TIME came from DBO’s backstory which is a concept created by Toriyama, Lord of time did not have a design in DBO and was given one with Xenoverse, now coincidentally in the Xenoverse game with more Toriyama involvement she got redesigned
I miss Toriyama.
>>580392329>At least it looks like we're not doing saiyan sagai don't think we've seen great ape vegeta yet, right? i bet he's just not in and that's why
>>580369161i don't remember cell having infinite stamina, do you want them to be like android 21? because i don't
>>580392920Why? He was involved in nothing good since DBZ.
To think that Frieza was the last major arc villain that Goku defeated without aid
>>580392745Dude, Miki explicitly confirms that the story was created by NTL's writing team and then revised under Toriyama's supervision, adding that he personally pitched lore settings while doing design work. Miki's polite phrasing ("I think") is just typical former staffs speaking guardedly about non-disclosure agreements (NDAs) and corporate hierarchy, not that he doesn't know who wrote his own job's loreBamco and Shueisha credit Toriyama for characters like Towa and Mira in post-DBO media because he owns the rights to DB and supervised/redesigned them not because he invented them out of thin air. By corporate legal standards, anything created under the DB license and supervised by Toriyama gets stamped with his credit, Galactic Patrol Prisoner was entirely Toyotaro's idea but Toriyama is still credited. He's pretty much the executive director/supervisor
>>580393631Goku had a shitload of aid to even get into the position where he COULD get super saiyan. I don't think ignoring the fight before super saiyan is fair
Here's another link, it's apparently also thanks to Miki Daiki that we have female Majins in subsequent DB gameshttps://www.kanzenshuu.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=43510
So... No demon race for XV3?
The entire concept of Demons and Demon Realm ended being completely different in Daima compared to stuff from DBO, Xeno and Heroes.I don't think Toriyama was really involved with those works outside of some Designs and corrections.
>>580393963So then that would make Piccolo Jr. the last one
>>580393965>Who was Goten again...?">"His face looks like Goku's, and...">"Well, then I can just draw child Goku?" (Miki says he remembers Toriyama giving an answer along those lines.)lmao
>>580393653Notice how you keep saying story while I’m talking about the outline.Also I highly doubt NDA still applies for DBOAlso it’s ironic you mention that considering there’s plenty of things mentioned for DBS that are toyotaro’s creations, what you’re referring to is crediting someone for “original work, story and/or characters” but really that means Toriyama created the setting and concepts the product is using, see Tomino being created for Gundam things he has no involvement in not that he’s being credited for literally writing the book, in Japanese Toyotaro is credited This is entirely different than saying Toriyama outright CREATED Towa and Mira in official interviews and articles
>>580394090Toriyama completely changed up Buu’s origins even before Daima on a literal whim like twice, nobody ever said he was consistent or even remembers half the shit he created, time rings strangely lines up with DBO/Xenoverse
>>580214367I'd like to have demon race too but they clearly want her to be unique.
>>580394090Toriyama changing his mind is nothing new.
>>580394573>Bibidi created Buu>well, actually Buu was always a thing since time immemorial, Bibidi just took control of him>actuallier, some old hag created him on Bibidi's request, lmao
90% of the stuff that came post the original manga are ideas by executives from Toei/Bandai/etc with some "Please Toriyama give validation to our ideas".
>>580394372My guy, you're confusing legal/franchise credit with literal narrative authorshipPR and game producers say 'Toriyama created them' because it's his franchise and he gave the final green light. But the devs who literally sat at the drawing board like Miki explicitly said the team pitched the concepts, designed the characters, and Toriyama supervised and revised them. An executive producer approving a pitch and editing a design isn't the same as him dreaming up the concept out of thin airAnd the Gundam style executive crediting is happening rn as we speak. Toriyama is credited as the creator of Super regardless of whether Toyo wrote an entire arc or designed a character from scratch. The legal copyright owner and franchise creator always gets the primary "created by" stamp on all official materials
Toriyama glazers are retarded.
>>580395139And yet, here you are shitposting in a thread about his work. Curious.
>>580395054You’re the one confusing it anon, you can create a character but not their designs just as you can design a character but didn’t create them, the concept isn’t that hardYour only proof that Toriyama didn’t create Towa and Mira(mind you, it is explicitly these two that are always credited even though other DBO characters have came back in DBH) is someone mentioning they designed them(mind you Mira got so revised he might as well have been designed by Toriyama too) but does not state they came up with the concept of the characters, the concept isn’t hard at all and they use very particular language when they refer to which one over the other, Toriyama designed movie characters but you don’t see them advertising Cooler as a character he made even the same with GT because he just supplements designs and had minimal involvement
>>580395383His "work" wasn't even his alone.
>>580394931Even the original manga story was 90% ideas by Editors and nip fan feedback.Dragon Ball is a team work, not just Toriyama.
Creating the bare basics outline and characters for the story then supervising everything else seems like a bog standard Toriyama activity, I’m not sure where the confusion is
I have one and only hope for xenoverse 3 and that's some actual at LEAST heroes tier fanfic content. like no more purple auras like ACTUAL new forms and characters and stuff. Rom's new form and a new outfit for Goku is a nice start, at the least.
>>580385803Dragon Ball what now?https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jBjtStafoS4
>>580395421Miki explicitly talks about pitching the concepts, not just drawing lines thoIn Miki's tweet about DBO story, he states "As I was designing various things, I think I also added some settings [lore/concepts] that I came up with."Japanese game devs use settings (or settei) to refer directly to character backgrounds, world rules, and lore concepts not just visual art. Miki was explicitly pitching narrative concepts alongside his visuals, which Toriyama then reviewedYour Cooler/GT point reinforces what I'm saying. You say Toriyama only gets created by credits when he comes up with the concept but that's not true regarding how Toei/Shueisha crediting worksMovie villains like Cooler, Broly, and Janemba are credited to Takao Koyama (the screenwriter) for story/concept and Toriyama for character design because for Toei movies, Koyama wrote the script first and Toriyama was brought in solely as a guest character designerhttps://www.kanzenshuu.com/animation-production/toriyama-contributions/The reverse happened with DBO. NTL's team (including Miki) pitched the game's story, characters, and settings to Toriyama/Shueisha. Because DBO was an official, canon-adjacent continuation supervised by Toriyama's studio, the franchise umbrella credits him as the creator of the world setting>they use very particular languageI highly doubt that. Video game marketing and Western translated articles regularly blur "created by," "designed by," and "supervised by"When Bamco promotes Xenoverse, saying "featuring characters created under the supervision of Akira Toriyama" or "designed by Akira Toriyama" in PR blurbs is standard marketing shorthand. It's not a precise legal distinction of who drafted the initial story treatment in a private NTL pitch meeting in 2008
Hopefully the alligator GoD is cool and not just another Demigra.
>>580396750Pitching story elements doesn’t mean you created the character either, using your same example Toriyama did the same thing like pitching that namekians had a weakness to sound for slug’s movie but he still didn’t create slug as a character despite pushing plot and even world building elements for him>I doubt thatI don’t know how clearer you can get with a interview with the producer of Xenoverse where he outright states Toriyama created them, he didn’t say he supervised them, THEN when he spoke about Supereme Kai of Time and Tokitoki he specifically said those characters are supervised by Toriyama
Suits
>>580398642Need a Bulma GF in my life bros...
>>580398070But your Lord Slug example literally proves my point. You just admitted that pitching worldbuilding elements for a project doesn't mean you created the specific characters in it. That's exactly what Toriyama did for DBO. He built the macro setting, while NTL and Miki pitched the specific characters (Towa and Mira) and story settings (settei) to himI'm sorry but no. Usually developer > game producerA business/project manager at Bamco who was not at NTL in 2008 when DBO was actually being written and designed is not on equal footing to the actual people sitting at the desk drawing the sketches, writing the settei, and physically submitting them to Toriyama for review
>>580400838What are you talking about?Lord Slug is someone Toriyama did the design for and pitched ideas, he did not create them and is not credited as suchToriyama may not have been characters Toriyama designed besides revision(Mira might as well have been designed by him) but he is still credited for CREATING THE CHARACTERS, because he came up with them despite not designing them.Supreme kai of time in Xenoverse marketing is described as someone he supervised while Towa and Mira in Xenoverse marketing he is stated as their creator
>>580398642was frieza always that tall?
>>580403874Goku & Vegeta are crouching while Frieza is standing straight.
>>580403993Vegito and Gogeta. That aside, Frieza is way taller than he should be even considering they're crouching. But inconsistent sizes is hardly a new thing. I think he's a lot taller in super
>>580393064he did. so did 17 and 18. infinite energy device
>>580404375He kind of explicitly didn't, or else Goku wouldn't have needed to give him a Senzu. It's really not like it would've mattered either way.
>>580404235>freeza is canonically 5'2>goku is canonically 5'9yet in the manga toriyama drew freeza at krillin height and he only even comes close to goku's height at full powerdb heights are super inconsistent
What's some stuff in this franchise that people would really only know about because of them starring in videogames. I feel like Light grenade wouldn't even be a thought in most people's mind without it being an ultimate attack in the BT games, given it's an extremely nondescript ki blast in the manga. Spike the Devilman probably wouldn't be thought of much either.
>>580407228I don't think Toriyama had any canonical heights for Frieza and Goku in mind by the time he was drawing Namek. I don't think most artists care that much about official heights, desu.
>>580407312Hyper Explosive Demon Wave is one that I think nobody really remembers. It was even incorrectly named Super Explosive Wave in Xenoverse 2, which is actually Future Gohan's signature move's name.>>580407592Well they should.
>>580407228I like the what-if forms this artist drew for king cold a lot. I wish xenoverse had more weird stuff like this, but instead they just make vegeta and freeza with pink crystals and shit.
>>580408419King Cold and Raditz are interesting to me because the only basis that people claim they MUST be relevant is being related to a relevant characterNepo baby ass characters
>>580404375Your stupid headcanon isn't real. Nobody with readable energy has infinite energy.
>>580407228DB characters never had canonical heights, feettard
>>580409490>Official canon heights for Dragon Ball Z main characters come primarily from the Super Exciting Guide: Character Volume published in 2009.
>>580409613>doesn't know the difference between official and canon
It's hilarious seeing the discourse around XV3 PvP considering how much I had to watch Reddit and Discord moderators flinging shit at each other in Xenoverse 2. None of you are laughing now.
So the time god is real. That means the two forms must be too.Do you guys think he'll just be bigger and bulkier like Gomah or will Toriyama go for a far more cooler but generic like design like a lizard Janemba?
got the BK DBS meal. made me sick to my stomach but at least I got my boy Big Green out of it
>>580414041where you gonna put 'em
>>580411618I just play pve anyways
>>580414041Are you going to get the One Piece/Spongebob meal too?
>>580414360on my shelf where I keep my other memorabilia. mostly music shit>>580415230no
>>580413259>will ToriyamaYou mean did Toriyama. That was years ago.
>>580414041Got a Piccolo too a few days ago
>>580104171>FemhanCringe. 5 year old Gohan is manly as fuck. I don't care about anything after so do whatever.
>>580413259I hope Toriyama goes the more generic and cool route.
>>580418294>5 year old Gohan is manly as fuckI guess if you never grew past the mental age of 5 you'd think that. Way to tell on yourself like that though anon.
>>580418626>fought nappa to the death (despite him being way stronger than him)>came to his father's aid to rescue him from great ape vegeta>took the initiative to go to namek to rescue piccolo against his mother's wishes>pummeled one of frieza's top elites to rescue dende WHILE FRIEZA WAS WATCHING THE WHOLE THING>fought recoome to the bitter end (desptie being far weaker than him, still)>beat the shit out of frieza multiple timesAfterwards Gohan was character assassinated into a pacifist and became a purely reactive character by the time of the Android saga.
>>580419049He was still pretty proactive as of androids saga, though. He wanted to fight the androids but never got the opprotunity to because of yajirobe. He wanted to go save Piccolo from imperfect cell but Goku forbade him from going. In the anime Goku had to physically hold him from going
>>580419864Saiyans having prominent fangs is a fanon I've generally appreciated. it's hot.
>>580421754I hope we get something interesting and it isn't just raichi killiing everyone
>>580414360He's going in the jar.
>>580421825Bardock has to survive and turn super saiyan
>>580424806Oh yeah this is the universe with Demon King piccolo fused namekian right? That was a pretty interesting concept. Shame it didn't really go anywhere iirc
>>580408419>they could just make slight model swaps to super buu to be used after cutscenes of him absorbing villains>the last time they did this was over 20 years ago with budokai 2How the fuck?
>>580426832Why is it that seemingly Piccolo specifically is the only guy that gives Super Buu a chin? Has he secretly been mogging the cast?
>>580427515It's actually Gotenks and Gohan that give him the jaw ash he loses most of it when Gotenks runs out
>>580428439He still doesn't lose it entirely like how base super buu does. Which means the sheer power level of Piccolo's jawline is enough to keep showing even by itself.
Guys, I'm sorry, I might have been causing boss a bit too much stress...
>>580430296Why? Were you told to put on pants again?
>>580426832>>580428439>>580428745Boo becomes more defined the more people he absorbs.
>>580432581But he had the same amount of people absorbed between buutenks and buccolo. In fact buucolo has more people inside of him given gotenks defused
>>580421754What is Multiverse even about anymore bruh?
>>580433768This isn't even anything new, though. It's just a backstory for Raichi. Which to give Salagir credit is in fact one of the more interesting universes due to its fairly bizzare setup
>>580434875That didn't answer the question.
>>580435058Gonna bully this Goku
>>580438149That Goku can go Ultra Spirit Avatar Kaioken x20 when he's not using True Ultra Instinct fully integrated into base form
I vaguely remember someone in some fighting game say, "KEEP TRYING!" Anyone know who it was? I wanna say maybe it was a Goku/Vegeta fusion but I can't remember
>>580435135Sorry, basically the plot finished the whole tournament arc stuff, so now it's vaugely a heros versus villians thing where the villains all got recruited by XII and the heroes gotta stop him. He's currently attempting to recruit Vegito
>>580443717Vegito and it was "try harder"
>>580439983 Gonna bully him still sexually
Is there a reason why the hair in Legends looks better than Xenoverse 3?
>>580448770I think Gacha game animations are just inherently going to look better than a normal game's animation because that's basically the selling point. Legends, and most gacha at that, are incredibly simple videogames compared to xenoverse where you have to make a whole ass hub and a bunch environments and shit. So you can allocate 90% of dev resources to the presentation and significantly less to everything else
>>580448770XV3 is going for a unified art direction, while Legends tries to make models accurate depending on the art style of the story arc or movie. XV3 honestly gives me Superhero vibes, which makes sense considering Gamma 1 seems to be one of the main characters.
>>580446995Videl... she's your father in law... We already talked about this
>>580450793Videl and Chichi and Pan and even (You) wish they were me.

Why the hell is the shop menu vertical??
>>580352493oh hey I'm missing the same DLC, and was wondering if I should get them
Toriyama was spot on with his inspiration of Frieza.
The new cards in Squadra are nuts.>Gutsy lowers HP but increases damage against everything>Adrenaline Power is basically a self inflicted DoT, which weakens burst damage, but specifically really benefits tanks, specially Jiren and Bardock whose passives are all about getting hit a lot>Super Charge recovers 25% ult per kill>Turtle Shell increases HP at the cost of longer vanish CD. If you use both it and Gutsy, you'd have a little more HP than usual while still have Gutsy's damage
Open Beta status?
I'm playing SZ for the first time since the last patch. I heard people said the difficulty hadn't changed at all but I'm now consistently connecting rush supers in limit breaking journey when the machine used to evade them 90% of the time
Vehicles confirmed.
>No God Goku nerf>Nerf Caulifla and Trunks for some reasonWTF?
>>580461279Ah sheet, cop scooter. That'd go perfect with a Paul Blart CAC.
>>580461279I don't expect the vehicle system to be as detailed and fun as it should be, but this is a really good start. Especially Considering how much of a vehicle autist Toriyama was. No idea on why Kakarot didn't capitalize on that when it had an actual DB world for people to drive around in, but that racing mini-game was boring.
Secret character
>>580463006Freeza's mom.
>Log in>Get Vegetto for freeNeat.
>>580461502Is Caulifla still playable after the nerfs? She was my main tank.
>>580459207How do his feet fit in those shoes?
>>580464684Fridges seem to have the weird ability to shapeshift to some extent so they probably fit normally.
>>580461279I hope we get capsule cars
Wait... is the new gogeta mid?
>>580461279Is it just me or does Krillin's model look kind of weird? It's not the eyes. His face just looks kind of long to me.
>>580466057Look at his forehead
>>580466057Not just the face, he looks too tall
>>580461279>>580461538Given its Xenoverse, we're probably gonna get Breakers tier vehicles.
Is it me or is Kefla kinda shit in Gekishin Squadra? She does not damage.
Can someone spoonfeed achievement spoilers
>>580473270Ctrl+F leak
>>580473270Literally right there >>580350073
Man, Gekishin is so fun when your teammates aren't braindead mongoloid.
huh, they really let samus aran go full dragon ball
>>580477915NANI?!
>>580477981the nintendo direct yesterday, i only just watched the trailer for the new metroid game
>>580478073They should give Samus a one-handed Kamehameha reference
>>580477915>gets stabbed in the tit>eats the sword to assert dominance >is still so mad at the audacity of it that she goes full Broly Can't say that this is what I expected for New Metroid but I'll sure as fuck take it after what happened with Prime 4
>>580478447i mean they gave her a rider kick in the trailer, and now she has both arms in the metroid suit, she could do the full kamehamehathough the spirits of her chozo dads behind her while doing a one-handed one would be amusing too>>580478480i think she somehow stole it too, either that or she stopped at rubicon 3 and ate a whole laser lance
>>580477915Is it the one with the annoying reddit helpers?
>>580479806no that was prime 4, this is a new 2d one coming out next january, called metroid ravenous
Mike McFarland, The English Voice Actor of Master Roshi has passed away at the age of 56. Rest in Peace
>>580480181Ah okay. Looks neat.>>580481117RIP
>>580481117F
>>580466665We're going back to him just being five feet tall, like at start of Z, instead of only going up to Goku's knees, like in late Z and Super. I really prefer that honestly.
>>580477915Samus going all Broly is something i didn't know i wanted...
>>580481117God dammit. Rest in peace.
>>580481117only 56? that feels oddly young...
>>580482631Lots of people from the showbusiness dying at 50 since COVID.
>>580481117It was inevitable after I heard of his condition.How did he even still manage to record lines for Sparking Zero?
New DBO waifus: https://x.com/DBOReborn/status/2097767631839461849/photo/1
>>580485767Oh I heard they replaced him already in the DLC? No clue haven't checked yet. RIP to the guy.
I just downloaded gekishin squadra anything i should know?
>>580491662They just nerfed Caulifla and this is the last season this version of the game will ever be available in.Also don't hesitate to ask to make teams here, even if just 1 dude join you, it means at least 1 non-braindead teammate.
>>580481117>JP VA is the first DBZ alumni to die>EN VA is the first DBZ alumni to diepoetic
>>580481117No..His voice will always be there to greet me when I play Tenkaichi 1RIP
>>580481117Well shit. F
>>580481293Since when is Namek late Z?
>>580482631He had glioblastoma, a really bad form of brain cancer. He had surgery to have it removed a year or two ago, but has been in recovery since. >>580485767They hired soundalikes. The Roshi and Yajirobe VAs are pretty spot on, but you can tell way easier with Baby.
>>580481117Nozawa outlives another one.
>>580481117I didn't know he voiced Baby too.
>>580477915It's like if Cell was a Kamen Rider. Lots of Amazon vibes.
>>580498335Isn't Kamen Rider Cell just Guyver
Seriously why are they STILL using this guy? Not only he traces for real, from old promos, to Dokkan to even the manga, he's terrible in general. Did they read the praises to DBS BR more simple but effective artstyle and thought somehow who does a half assed job would be good for promotional material or what?
>>580500130I mean it could be worse. we could still be stuck in the yamamuro plastic era
>>580498512I guess that's one way to look at it
>>580500130If AnimeAjay's to be believed, none of the regulars want to work on the promo stuff because they aren't allowed to credit themselves anymore.
>>580504617Wait so it's the same the italian guy said about the european dubs having trouble with the VAs because they don't want to credit them? Holy shit
>>580504617elevating Toriyama to being this Auteur figure who's VISION is needed for TRVE dragonball so he's the only person worth crediting is bizzare to me. Especially since the anime's largely been doing its own thing for decades
I do not care about literal who's getting credited or not, put the fries in the bag.
>>580504801The what in the who where now?
>>580504617People and their conspiracy theories over meh art wall at a store are so funny.Like we didn't get promo art like this shit for decades.
>>580505075You should care, my retarded friend, because people who worked on this ip for years are leaving due to the treatment they are getting now, that's why lots of Daima dubs are only coming out now, that's why the new promo artist sucks, and more problems can arise.If you care about DB you care about who works on it, and that means you should care about their conditions.
>>580505282>You should careI won't.>This is why Daima didn't get raped by dogshit meme 'dubs' that are basically glorified wannabe abridged.Oh so it's a good thing. Hope whoever came up with it get a raise.>You should care about their conditionsI care in so much as I hope their conditions are as bad as possible and they learn their place.
>>580505159See >>580151671
>>580505159E-celeb schizo nonsense for attention.
>>580504840It's gonna be funny when they run out of "Toriyama" content to adapt in the next 5-7 years and then what..? lol
>>580509227And like, i'm perfectly okay with the idea that other people can do Dragonball stuff. Toriyama was never a perfect writer. The mythos that's being created around Toriyama that he's onthologically the only person who can properly write dragonball is going to bite us in the ass eventually I feel.
>>580505461Yikes
>>580481117Why is /a/ chimping out so hard over the thread?>>>/a/290837416
>>580509498You people fight like you're enemy football teams whenever more than 1 name is associated with DB at a time, nobody getting named is a blessing for this franchise and the 'discourse' around it.It also cut off another jewtuber clickbait avenue.
>>580513680Since when? The only guy I really know about and care about is Toyotaro, and that's just because I criticize the manga occasionally. This isn't like one punchman where people are constantly going STORY BY ONE
>>580505280The infamous Smileku is still 10x better than this Fortnite render.
