I would assume if they would stop at the Cell Saga it is because they've been at it for years now and probably can't commit to finishing another season after this one with life and increasing work obligations.

As far as I know their position is, we will keep doing this, but they won't commit to anything for obvious reasons.

I think it was more hearing for the thousandth time "He wanted to quit after [insert arc here]!' which is a bit annoying.

Those rumors are weird when you think of it, because we DID see what happens when Toriyama quits when the higher ups don't want - they made GT without him.

Buu arc is pretty cool but in the other hand Supreme Kai is in it so I can kinda get where the haters are coming from.

Guys the sixth episode of the Garlic Jr. Saga was pretty clearly the intended ending for the franchise.

Endorph posted:It probably was the intended ending at some point, but it wasn't like Toriyama wept as Shonen Jump's editors put a gun to his head. He just decided to keep going. http://www.kanzenshuu.com/intended-end/cell/ Bottom line, the only point you can really point to any arc being the intended ending is the very first one, since Dragonball started out as a short riff on Journey to the West. But everything past that is really just people trying to discredit something they don't like. Which is a bit weird, since Toriyama was always writing at the seat of his pants, so there is really zero difference in the writing style anyway. e X fucked around with this message at 01:05 on Mar 29, 2015 |

I'm watching Dragon Ball Kai since I haven't watched Dragon Ball since I was a kid and Xenoverse plus the new movie got me into the mood, and i wasn't going to watch the entire original series (much as it had the Latin American dub, which was awesome and I miss like this, but I'll hear them again once Resurrection "F" is out here anyways). It still holds up. My kid memories are incomplete and forgot lots of awesome stuff. But holy poo poo Namek is long even in Kai format. Started on 17/18 I think, I'm on episode 41 and Final Form Freeza just appeared last episode. Not like I'm complaining (okay, I am, but it's mostly because my strongest memory is still Gohan vs Cell and I want to get to that and see if it really is as good as I remember) That said, is there any easy way to watch the uncut English dub on the internet? I've gotten really accustomed to the voices thanks to video games, and while I like the Japanese voices too, I kind of find the dub better in that regard. The Latin American dub is even more superior, but sigh, Kai was dubbed with an entirely different and far worse cast. At least Battle of Gods got the cool voices and Resurrection "F" should as well.

The best part of that article is admitting they have no clue why Toriyama took the opinion of a guy who didn't even work for him anymore so seriously.

According to the guidebooks only Dragon Clan Namekians can reproduce and Piccolo is a Warrior-Type so no kids for him. Piccolo Daimo could because he was basically a evil Dragon Clan member from being half of Kami.

Piccolo Daimo could because he was basically a evil Dragon Clan member from being half of Kami. But Piccolo is his dad, so he should have the same abilities. Daizenshuu 2 outright confirms that Piccolo kept all of his dad's skills. It's likely Piccolo doesn't use Pokopen because it's kind of an evil technique, it involves giving birth but before that horribly mutating the babies into demons. Plus, it takes part of King Piccolo's life and a lot of energy (which becomes a non-issue when he gets eternal youth, but the current Piccolo does not have that), so it's way too impractical.

Toriyama clearly quit DBZ in the middle of the fight with the Ginyu Force. Why else would it take so long for Toonami to get new episodes?

I don't know if you meant to use the word "immortal" because that's like triple wrong but if you're referring to King Piccolo's wish for eternal youth it's inconclusive whether that applies to Piccolo Jr. since he never ages enough for it to come up. He's in his early 20's by the end of the Buu Saga. But the safe bet is probably not, either way.

How is the warrior-type vs healer-type vs Dragon Clan stuff even supposed to work? People keep saying that Dragon Clan Namekians can't fight, but Kami could fight. Kami also couldn't heal anyone. Maybe Dragon Clan Namekians can come in both fighter and healer varieties?

Hulu rotates through the series about once a year. Right now they've got through the vegeta fight and the end of buu saga up. I imagine in a few months they'll go back into the nnnnamek episodes and onward. Full run of original Dragon ball though.
