That's the Anti-Saiyan form, only achieved by Krillin and Piccolo's fusion

Basically Krillin always steps up when the chips are down, even if he doesn't amount to anything. 18 seems to like that.

It's why I like Krillin. The entire Namek saga he is beyond out of his league from day one. But he can't just give up. He knows there's a job that's gotta be done, and he also knows if he doesn't do it Gohan will try and there's no way he's gonna let Goku's son kick the bucket. Krillin hangs in there, hell or high water. Unfortunately for him, it's usually both.:unsmith:

thing to consider about Revival of F: Battle of Gods was originally like 20min shorter than the version we got on release, and the cut scenes included such things as Hercule's entire screen time

wait for it to hit DVD/BD before you judge how well it handles side characters

I really liked the battle royale in the World Tournament after every one left after Babidi. We really needed more scenes like that to give secondary characters things to do while the main characters are fighting the super villain.

Well, AF was the often cited sequel but hoax to GT that kids who were new to the internet didn't realise was easily disproved, and apparently someone (or several people) decided to make it.

The extra Kai Toyble (said AF artist) came up with actually reminds me of the time demon woman from Xenoverse, kind of made me hope for some pseudo-AF action. I know how silly that'd be but hey, time fuckery; you can make up any excuse.

Is it a myth or did the picture of SS5 Goku come from an April Fools joke by Toriyama and this is why it's known as Dragonball AF (April Fools)?

I read the plot synopsis for the new flick.

Actually liked it better than the baseless speculation, what the hell. I'm glad it went that route honestly, I think having that big of a power jump would have broken the setting a bit.

People were talking about Dragon Ball AF, that fan comic that had people going SSj5 and 6, and that was some years ago. I figured they had made Goku an SSj9 by now.
It died off pretty fast because the author got hired by Shueisha to work on real Dragon Ball stuff. He's actually the dude who's making the official Revival of F manga: http://www.kanzenshuu.com/2015/02/17/first-look-at-toyotaros-revival-of-f-manga-adaptation/

There are so many problems with how that fight goes it's not even funny and it makes other things irrelevant.

Re: movie, of course I'm going to see it, but you can't put a moratorium on people having opinions on it based of the synopsis. Theoretically you could ban people from discussing it, but they'll still have opinions, so why stop them from sharing them? I see no harm in it as long as plot details are kept in spoiler tags.

I think the new movie still sounds cool. Even if there are things to dislike about it, when has that NOT been the case? There are certain things I don't like about DBZ but I like it as a whole. And there will probably be more movies in the future.
