    What would SSJ4 Gotenks look like?

    I think he would look just like Super Saiyan 4 Vegeta with some purple on the sides and a better hairline. It looks like Super Saiyan 4 brings out their base hair color. I'm not entirely sure what happened with Gogeta. Though, Toei always portrayed Vegeta having dark brown hair (they like to...

    Is it possible Raditz's power level was retconned?

    What would lead you to believe that we was imagined to be below enraged Gohan?

    Goku's gi color

    Attached is Akira Toriyama's drawing of Goku where he mixed the colors in himself. It's like a light orange gi--pretty much what we see on the manga covers. Three full colored pages in the Kanzenban and VizBigs are Toriyama's actual colors, but there are some colored pages that use a very...

    Dragon Ball Merch and Purchases

    First who know, know. I have all of the US home video releases of the original 3 series, Kai and Super on Blu-ray, the VizBigs, Tankōbon, Japanese full color for the entire series, the Japanese Dragon Boxes, all Daizenshuus, and every video game from PS1 until PS4 (except for Breakers).

    Sean Schemmel Vs Masako Nozawa

    Masako Nozawa, easily. Hell, I don't thin Sean is even the best English-speaking Goku. I prefer Ian Corlett, Peter Kelamos, and Kirby Morrow way, way more than Schemmel. Between that disingenuous "I'm playful, can't you tell?" voice he puts on for Goku to the raspy screams that I honestly can't...

    Dragon Ball GT La Revista Oficial

    Honestly, the fact that it's in Spanish is a huge hint that it doesn't have any "authority" on GT. Not to say that it's not "official," but the Sonic (the Hedgehog) CW promo for Kai was also official, but held no authority. It was a Japanese product with Japanese writers and Japanese staff...

    Which character would you most like a backstory show/saga for?

    I think it would be cool to have a little spinoff series with Gohan and Gyumao training under Muten Roshi (like Goku and Kuririn did years later).

    Rate the last Anime/Manga you finished out of 10

    Technically, the last anime that I watched all the way through was Death Note (for the third time?). I love this series. I think it's brilliantly written. It is by far one of my favorite animes and one day, I'll get around to reading the manga. The anime does take a dip in the middle a bit and...

    What would it take for Boo arc Gohan to get angry?

    I feel like even if everything felt hopeless, Gohan would get sad rather than mad. I think that his anger would be brought out by seeing someone close to him--Goku, Goten, Chichi, Videl, the other Z Warriors--getting seriously hurt would have done the trick. I don't think he formed quite enough...

    Why is it so hard for people to accept my SSJ1.5 theory?

    Except when Akira Toriyama randomly forgets that he used electricity for Super Saiyan 2 aura... or forgets about Super Saiyan 2 even existing. This is the author whose story people are trying to dive deeply into. With that said, I don't think that Akira Toriyama thought about using an...

    How Would Your Life Be Different If Dragonball Did Not Exist?

    My childhood wouldn't be as awesome lol Dragon Ball (Z) was a huge social topic in my school. Growing up with the primitive internet and limited accessibility to the series outside of the 55 or so episodes we saw, built up the mystique and intrigue of the series. Kids who came across Japanese...

    Would SSJ4 have been more badass if the shirts were still destroyed after they reverted?

    I think that Super Saiyan 4 would be a lot cooler if it didn't create clothing for them. I understand that Goku turning into a giolen ōzaru created a situation where he needed clothing, but I feel like there could've been a way around it. In the very least, the clothing could have been generated...

    Gai who created "SSJ5" Art & AF rumours

    The original artist, David Montiel Franco, can be found on Twitter at Tablos.AF. He's a talented guy. I'm pretty sure that my first exposure to "AF" was in 1999. Of course, someone, somewhere read that someone, somewhere was related to Toriyama and they confirmed that it was real. You know how...

    Super Saiyan 3 Boost

    I never understood why a 2x Super Saiyan 2 boost was "too small." Base x100 isn't bad at all. Likewise, a 4x Super Saiyan 3 boost--or base x400--isn't bad at all either. Let's go by Daizenshuu's numbers for the Saiyan fight for a bit: Goku: 8,000 Nappa: 4,000 Nappa (full power): 6,000...

    Are There Limits As How Many Times A Species Can Transform?

    It's never been stated. Inherently, there has to be a personal limit. Like, at some point, the characters will just die before hitting all their forms.

    Vegeta in dbgt

    Overall, I liked Vegeta's second GT design. It wasn't just the mustache that had me rolling my eyes, it was that Guile cut. It just looked like they legit took a trimmer to the top of his head and made it into a perfect flat-top. I'm glad it changed more to Gohan's look. And honestly, I liked it...

    Why Are All Of The Major Villains Of Dragonball/Z Male?

    The only one on that list of any note is #18. Mai did nothing until Super (where her role significantly shifted) and "the chick from the Bojack movie" also didn't do anything. Oh, and she was not canon, so I'm not so sure Toriyama wrote for her. I would be more than happy with more female...

    Why Are All Of The Major Villains Of Dragonball/Z Male?

    Fair point. But he's certainly not a female and I can see him having trouble writing for them. I don't know if he would be his at week so writing for strong lead female characters. It seems like he has enough trouble writing for muscle-headed men.

    Why Are All Of The Major Villains Of Dragonball/Z Male?

    I also think you write to what you know. You don't have to be sexist or racist to create a work of art that has characters that most identify with you. While Toriyama isn't an alien or anything like that, that's what came to his imagination.
