Fans like to ignore what people actually say so they can let their imagination run wild.

Hunter X Hunter has the the same thing we're the author is open about why he has to keep quitting but people still think it's because he is tired of it.

Didn't they always say they had no firm plans to go further than the Cell Games and now here they are a couple of episodes from the end taking an indefinite break... It's pretty obvious where the idea comes from.

They haven't said that in years and Kaiser has mentioned having characters cast for the Buu Saga many times.

It is kinda funny (in a haha not strange way) that they put out a video explaining that DBZA is a while away when this isn't the longest they've been radio silent on the episode front.

I don't like DBZA that much but stopping before even finishing the series is a dick move so it gotta be a c&d or somebody's family all mysteriously died at once. If it was personal I'd think they'd at least end it to shut up the fans.

why does it "have to" be either of those things

the wording used in the video is "hey some personal stuff came up so we're not going to give you any kind of time frame for the next episode"

in fact there's a pinned youtube comment:

quote:

Just so we're clear: We're still working on DBZA in the meantime. We're just making sure that things on all sides are handled while we prepare for the season finale, and due ot many contributing factors, it's impossible for us to promise when the next episodes will drop. Thank you for your patience, and we really look forward to sharing our love for DragonBall with you again.

They didn't have the comment up before and the video was weirdly done but ok that's much clearer.

Always remember that the former President was dumber than the dumbest person you've ever met by a wide margin

Hot take: DBZA is extremely inconsistent in quality, sometimes from episode to episode. Much like the original DBZ. I still enjoyed a lot of it and hope they resolve their issues and get back to producing content. That said, I'm old enough that I'm still unable to wrap my head around how they manage to make a living, when 90% of their content right now is video game streaming. Is there enough demand that people are donating to see some (admittedly pretty funny at times) guys stream games every day?

Another hot take: Dragon Ball Super is good, I almost choked up at the newest episode when Roshi talked about the teachings of the Turtle school before launching that super Kamehameha. The dub is also finally getting to the good stuff, and I'm DVRing it and watching it every Monday after work. Feels good.

Their patreon pays them over 10k a month and they make money from other sources as well. Split that up among their team and add in that I think a chunk of them live together somewhere that housing is cheap already and yeah, they can make a decent living off it. They're not rich or anything but if you don't go out much then you don't need to make a whole lot to be comfortable.

He's Swedish. You really shouldn't be surprised that he ended up being a Nazi. There are shockingly large amount of them in Sweden.

His love of claiming every Nazi thing he does is a ironic is annoying. " I paid these people to carry a sign around town that says death to all Jews screaming Nazi slurs and I specifically told him to enter the Jew sections of the city, isn't that funny? I did it ironically! Even let them borr--buy Nazi uniforms for it!"

That dude came into the Gundam thread here on ADTRW once and made posts about how he liked the space Nazis in that series.

I thought he was just kidding at first, but looking back I don't think he was.

I mean, you can say that about the actual Cell Saga.


As much as I love it, there is an episode that is literally just a beam struggle between Gohan and Cell. An ENTIRE episode where that's all that happens.

Actually we do know. Before Goku got involved in time fuckery Gowasu used the time ring to show Zamasu 1000 years into the future. Their universe still existed 1000 years into the future, and it doesn't now.

Goku is responsible.

Maybe time travel doesn't take into account whether or not a universe still exists? Maybe Zen-o and his angels exist and operate outside of time so their actions would not reflect in an individual's timeline unless they specifically enter it. Think of it like a series of bubbles, where all the bubbles are time.

What part of the show suggests to you that this could be true apart from your desire to believe Goku can't cause bad things to happen?

I am still banking on Goku playing some 10 dimensional chess here. He doesn't care about he tournament, he only wants an oppratunity to fight the gods. Once he over throws the celestial order he will fix the universes. The tournament is just a way for him to recruit strong allies to help fight the gods.

Eeeeeh not really. Time travel is pretty inconsistent in DB (which is why it's probably a good thing that they closed the door on Future Trunks ever being a thing again). Goku was saved by Future Trunks, thinking the timeline would change. Instead, time didn't change and split into different timelines. Zamasu destroyed all the universes less than 1000 years in the future from when he was shown the future, in a timeline that had become unrelated to the timeline that Goku was alive in to alter in the first place. If time travel worked consistently in DBS, the timeline where Goku triggers Zamasu going crazy would have no impact on the time line of Future Trunks.

you have Goku Black from the Future Trunks timeline, and Future Zamasu from the unaltered timeline. These two should, in theory, not be able to ever meet due to the timeline split happening long before Zamasu uses the time ring to meet himself. However, they can and do.
