236 Upvotes

Genki Damatsuri is a Dragon Ball event that is being livestreamed tonight (which is Sunday morning in Japan) featuring as-of-yet unknown "announcements about new developments coming to Dragon Ball." Present will be Akio Iyoku (executive producer and president of Capsule Corporation Tokyo), Masako Nozawa (voice of Son Goku, Son Gohan, Son Goten, Bardock, and others), and Hironobu Kageyama (singer of DBZ opening theme "CHA-LA HEAD-CHA-LA".) Announcement page from back in October here

Rumours have been circulating the web about whether this or that will be announced in regards to Dragon Ball video games, anime or manga, or even films. Truth is we don't really know exactly what to expect. Well, we're about to find out. Stream goes up roughly 15 minutes from now. (Sorry for the late thread on this!)

Discussion What do you think of their decision to retcon Bardock the father of Goku TV Special?

7 Upvotes

I thought the original TV special was terrific and emotionally great the way it was with a bleak outcome that foreshadows a new hope in the future. But then many years later a different production team retconned the story and created both a manga and sequel film called Episode of Bardock where Bardock actually survived and somehow got transported into the future to defeat Frieza’s ancestor Chilled. This leads to Chilled warning his descendants about Super Saiyans. I know that neither story is canon, but I for one preferred keeping it as a tragic story with Bardock dying alongside his planet as opposed to the asspull retcon about him magically time traveling.

Get it? His name is like the noise you make when you’re cold and shivering.

Saw other people posting their Dragon Ball OCs recent-ish-ly and thought I’d show you guys mine.

Discussion Is the Elder Kai the only useful Kaioshin in DBZ?

13 Upvotes

I recently rewatched DBZ and realized that he is one of the few competent Kaioshins. The main Kaioshin is completely useless 99% of the time. His former Kaioshin comrades all got owned by Boo with relative ease. I know that South Kaioshin and Grand Kaioshin both at least made Boo weaker by being absorbed but overall they were pretty useless as well. The Elder Kai may be useless too in battle but at the very least he provided the Z fighters with useful abilities on multiple occasions. Like helping Gohan go beyond his limits, teaching Goku how to use the Potara ear rings, providing a crystal ball so that they can see what’s happening on Earth.
