That gif just needs one more frame to fit in with all the other DBZ battle loops.

Petiso posted:Continuing the god-talk, I was also surprised when I read King Kai saying to himself that it was wrong for him to root for Goku and that he should actually stay neutral, I guess it makes sense for gods to be the not interfering types and only helping heroes "help themselves" like in many myths, but then again the supreme Kais had to take care of Buu even though they (well, he, since there was only one at the time) ignored Freeza despite knowing him, maybe the gods are like the UN and Buu was so powerful it qualified as a weapon of mass destruction? Or maybe it's the fact that Bibidi tried to take over the sacred world of the Kais and would've ignored him too if he just went conquering planets? The Kai's fought Buu because he was an existence-level threat. He could destroy all life in the Universe and all the souls in Otherworld if left unchecked. However, I am of the opinion that Buu is a previous God of Destruction that went off the rails. Too much of his backstory matches up with Beerus' backstory. And if it was anybody except Toriyama I'd say it couldn't possibly be a coincidence how much they line up. But it is Toriyama, so for all we know he forgot he'd already used that past for Buu and recycled it for Beerus. But if true, that would also mean the Kai's have a certain obligation to fight him as they are Gods of Creation and it is their duty to work against Gods of Destruction.

An interesting aspect there is how Toriyama relatively recently (within the last few years, I think) confirmed that yeah, Bibidi never actually 'created' Buu, but had actually found them. Buu otherwise just... exists, like some lovecraftian gumball.

Somewhat related - Babidi is in the series for too long. I'd be happy if I never saw that little fucker ever again or heard his voice. I can hear him saying "Majin Buu" in my head any time I think of Dragonball and it makes me want to drive an hammer into my skull.

New teaser, ahead of time! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hRL-Cj053rE Courtesy of Kanzenshuu, quote:Heya! I’m Goku! After 18 years, we’re striking out in a new series! A while after the battle with Majin Buu, some incredible guys have showed up in front of us: God of Destruction Beerus and Champa! Well, they’re gods at any rate, so I’m gonna fight with all my strength against Beerus and company, and get even stronger! The “Dragon Ball Super” broadcast starts next time! Don’t miss it! The more that appears, the more it's clear this does not take Battle of Gods as canon at all, even in the future, since it seems it's retconning how it happened. What a weird choice. Or maybe we're quickly timeskipping to after BoG for Champa? I'm somewhat confused, but I guess we'll see once it's properly out. Personally I'll watch it in Japanese even if I really dislike grandma Goku because I'm very impatient. Also hoping for a good Latin American dub with the original voices, like Battle of Gods and Resurrection "F" and much unlike Kai.

Maybe theyll just pull a futurama and cut the movies into several episodes for the show.
|
# ? Jun 26, 2015 18:54 |
|
Yeah, this is almost certainly revising the BoG events, perhaps because Toriyama's figured it could have been done better, or something. So rather than Beerus sleeping specifically to wait for Goku to arrive, the SSG is something that slipped to the back of his mind as he otherwise went around and did his job.

I'm okay with the movies being kind of non canon along with the other movies tbh Maybe the super saiyan god stuff will get a bit more development in the series for example

Why the gently caress are we seriously starting from before Beerus' proper introduction? Are both of the new movies seriously being made non-canon already?

Are both of the new movies seriously being made non-canon already? I think Toriyama is just taking full advantage of the time skip as a place to tell stories. I don't think he wants to do anything after Uub's introduction because that's the end of Goku's story.

I think you guys are overestimating how involved Toriyama is with this show. It's definitely not a direct writing credit like there is for BoG or RoF. Retconning the movies is stupid and a giant waste of time

It leading to cool poo poo would be nice, but it's gonna be hard to top Goku getting his license. Maybe Beerus and Whis getting their licenses?

Until Beerus arrives it not like there will be much fighting and it'll be them living in a mundane world which always owns.

Are we sure it's an out and out retcon, though, and we aren't just gonna span the time before BoG, between BoG and Ressurection F and then the time after?

To be fair, I went in to RoF expecting it to be poo poo and it blew me away, so I'll reserve judgement on Super.

TheKingofSprings posted:I am saying this will probably not be better than BoG And. BoG still exists? Watch that. People care way too much about canon and what's real and what's not. BoG doesn't phase out of existence because they decide to go a different route for the TV series. Also it seems more likely that the only thing they are retconning about BoG is how long Beerus was sleeping before coming to earth.

Obviously the movie universe is not the same as the show universe. Parallel timelines! Similar but different!

Blockhouse posted:Oh sure, but having to sit and wait for however many episodes of set-up/re-use of BoG's plot have to pass before we get something cool is not sitting well with me. That's gonna be the most problematic thing, discounting the possibility of new material also sucking. I realise even in Japan not everyone will have seen the film, but it almost certainly got watched by the bulk of people who'll go on to watch Super week by week, so a near retread is gonna be tedious. That might be why they're introducing Champ early in, if the second trailer is any indication, so there's the assurance of some new element playing in. Kinda curious what they're berating Beerus about though. Overstepping his boundaries as a god of destruction (ie, if the planet he just blew up was one he wasn't meant to touch), or some other matter?
