All Purpose Dragon Ball Thread

Like genuinely, what the hell is the alternative, it's canon to nothing? If it's not canon to Kai, or the Z anime, or the Z manga, then what the shit is it canon too? Do we just come to the conclusion it's actually secretly in its own completely unique dimension?
trust me bro. Akira wrote a story that follows its own unique storyline and doesn't follow the story that he made and decided to continue years later
 
I know a lot of other supporters are tired of these out of nowhere arbitrary burdens of proof put upon us that has no precedent in the site's standards.

'Erm, what's your proof?'

'Basic fcking reasoning.'
 
......it happening in an earlier year doesn't make it canon to everything after said year iherently.......else GT would be canon
The burden of proof is on you here; you have to prove that Daima isn't canon to Z/Kai or Super. There is like zero reason why it's not (If you gonna say Kibitoshin contradiction, don't, because they can always fuse later so this isn't a good argument)

We all know why GT isn't canon. I don't need to say anything more about that.

Honestly, I think you're overthinking about what's canon and what's not. I'm sure Toriyama and the others who worked on Dragon Ball didn't care about that as much, so maybe you shouldn't either.

Anyway, won't reply further, agree to disagree.
 
Omega I am not putting words in your mouth. Stop dodging responsibility.
Oh i see the confusion, i worded badly, what i meant to say is that, for the ongoing drama after the first message, engaging and doing the same thing the troll is doing is also your fault, after that point, not that it is your fault in general for the entire situation

No we wouldn't. Every release of offical animated Dragon Ball after the Super anime ended has taken place in the Super anime continuity, Broly and Superhero.
those two are literally "Dragon Ball Super" movies..........Daima isn't even slightly comparable to those at all since it doesn't have the "Dragon Ball Super" title to it nor is it a direct continuation of it like the 2 movies are

It's safe to assume that applies here too because we literally have no info that it takes place in some alternate dimension.
No, if one affirms something is canon, one needs to prove that, being technical, the DBS Anime already is another continuitu from the DB and DBS Manga, which is different from DBZ Toei's continuity, so one would need proof of which continuity Daima is in

If anything you need proof it's not canon.
One doesn't need to prove a negative, if a side is with the positive "it is in the same continuity as the DBS anime" or "it is in the same continuity as the DBS anime and DBS Manga" then one needs to prove that

More over, one needs to prove which continuity Daima is a sequel to, the DB Manga or the DBZKAI anime or the Toei Anime? Cuz that would matter as well

......who said that it isn't canon to the Dbz manga? I sure didn't, that is the one thing i am certain it is canon to, it mentions events of it afterall

Again, for the last time, if you make an assertion you need to provide evidence.
Which is why i am asking

How about precedent? All new dragonball stuff has had a version canon to super and a version canon to the super manga or just been stated to be canon for both daimia is no different
..........the movies are literally "DRAGON BALL SUPER" movies that directly mention events from DBS........Daima is nothing like that, at most it has the "12 Universes" mentioned, but that was a thing since DBZ with the Battle of Gods movie
 
Omega idk what to tell you. Your wrong, the franchise has been like this sense super came out to convince me that has changed would require direct word from toei staff.

You have to prove the franchise dosen't work the way it has for years. The title dosen't matter, it is a dragonball story the assumption is its canon is in line with the other dragonball storys from this era.

It doesn't matter that Broly and Superhero were DBS, they are still offical animated Dragon Ball content written by the author himself. Both of which take place in the Kai, Super anime continuity.

Daima not being called Dragon Ball Super Daima is not an arguement whatsoever. Toei is treating the Kai and Super anime as the default continuity, and we have no statements there is anything different.

Omega for the love of God stop dodging the responsibility of making an arguement. I'm trying to be good faith but it feels like you are being purposely obtuse.

'I don't need to prove a negative' is bullshit. You are trying to make the claim that Daima isn't canon to Kai and Super anime. Prove it. You haven't so far, you have just dumped the burden on me. That's unproductive.

I mean......it is canon to the main continuity (the DB Manga), that i never questioned
 
If you reply with another stone wall with semantics about titles and 'I don't need to prove a negative', I'm not going to bother replying because you clearly don't want to listen and just want to be obtuse. Your reasoning is shallow and baseless.
 
Can you guys shut up about If Daima is Canon or not, you all starting to repeating yourselfs with the same arguments.

"Daima is canon to Super"

"What about the Fusion contradiction?"

"They gonna do another Fusion later down, don't worry"

You people did this like, 3 times already, is getting annoying.

If someone claims it's not canon. Someone else has to correct it. That is just how it is.
 
This is such a pointless discussion. Daima as of now should be treated as canon since it references events canon to the manga and is made with the guidance of Akira Toriyama. We have not once ever deemed an Akira Toriyama project as non canon and when we did it’s because other projects came out to retcon it (BoG and RoF for example) to which the latter is canon but only to the manga
 
It doesn't matter that Broly and Superhero were DBS, they are still offical animated Dragon Ball content written by the author himself. Both of which take place in the Kai, Super anime continuity.
Yeah, cause they literally say as much in the movies themselves, yes..........DBS Super Hero isn't canon to the DBS Manga/DB Manga however, so......

Daima not being called Dragon Ball Super Daima is not an arguement whatsoever.
never was, it was just me poiting out an obvious detail that nails down what the story of the movies makes crystal clear

Toei is treating the Kai and Super anime as the default continuity, and we have no statements there is anything different.
uhhh no, they decided to continue the DBS Anime continuity with movies that make clear they are continuations of the Anime.......didn't saw anything about it being the "default" continuity for them, no, least i didn't saw anything about it

Omega for the love of God stop dodging the responsibility of making an arguement. I'm trying to be good faith but it feels like you are being purposely obtuse.
but.....you are the one who did the argument about it being canon not only to the DB Manga, but to like 3 different continuities at once......how it is i that am dodging responsability? I never made an argument that it can't or isn't canon to any particular continuity, only that we have no proof either way so we can't just assume

'I don't need to prove a negative' is bullshit. You are trying to make the claim that Daima isn't canon to Kai and Super anime. Prove it. You haven't so far, you have just dumped the burden on me. That's unproductive.
Nope, i merely said that there isn't proof that it is canon to the DBS Anime continuity
 
This. Both are basically equally canon atp, and Toei clearly favors the anime continuity.

Both Broly and Superhero, works written by Toriyama that came out after the anime ended, take place in the anime timeline.
I mean........the DBS Anime is still not canon to the manga, that hasn't changed
 
If someone claims it's not canon. Someone else has to correct it. That is just how it is.
I don't actually care about how you think you are objectively correct in saying is Canon, what I saying for you to stop arguing If you gonna repeat the same arguments.
Now I am more then happy to change the subject to gushing/talking about the composite dragonball character if anyone is into that
Would It include the games? Also, can we count Arale?

That is the point "non canon" to what? Yeah, Daima is canon........but to which continuity?
 
Yes and yes
Well, so they have a Lot of passives hax with different effects which includes Plot Manipulation, and they all 5D. And have High-Godly Regen. They still don't have Conceptual Manipulation.

I don't think that change much in level of Power. Like, is enough to solo they own verse, the verses that DB loses are still getting defeated.

Superhero isnt canon to the manga cause it has its own version of Superhero. Daima doesn't. This is an empty arguement. Bringing up the Super in Dragon Ball Super also doesn't work because Daima takes place before Super so it not being named Dragon Ball Super Daima is not an arguement. And if you know it's not an arguement, don't bring it up.

I mentioned it being possible to be canon to all three continuity as a side point, my main point was pretty damn clear that it's canon to the Kai and Super anime due to how Broly and Superhero are treated. This is the only precedence we have, it's the only thing we have to go on. Offical animated works written by Toriyama after the anime ended. We know for a fact Toei favors the anime because it presented the movies Toriyama wrote as a part of the anime continuity.

So yes, when you offer absolutely no counter arguement to all of that and just say 'I don't have to prove a negative' when I was clear from the start Daima would be canon to Kai and Super anime due to precedence of the previous works of similar nature, that is you dodging responsability.

I never argued the DBS anime was canon to the manga.

What you are doing is saying 'oh we need proof it's canon to things but I'm not really going to help figure out what', then ignoring the argument put forward that proves Daima is reasonably apart of the Kai Super anime continuity.
 
If daimia gets a ark in the manga like geekdom said one time it would, will that end this? If that is the manga version the animated version therefore must be- for the anime
 
I believe it being in the Kai/Super Anime Continuety means we need to remove Fissionism from Manga Buu's page (I don't know if it was ever added, but I remember there was a CRT).

Plot is the most stolen skill ever created, i believe it is impossible to beat someone who has plot unless someone who has plot

Also consider, with a body the size of super shenron and buus ablitys to make mini hims, you could make untold trillions of bodys the size of a normal fighter

As Daima is i find difficult to believe they would go back literal several years into the past instead of just.....continuing with Black Freeza stuff

I bet the writier following toryama would thank heaven for another opportunity to delay going forward without him tbh he's clearing trying to use as much time as possible to get black frieza right.
 
saw someone wear this in uni a few days ago, unironically.
