Dragon Ball Super Discussion Thread 100

All I was doing, right,—I was browsing the Internet, at this point, just searching up "extreme battle collection round 2" on Google, cuz I really wanted to look into some scans that had lingering in the back of my head for weeks now. And, I find this VK link, right? Just sitting there. Coupla minutes before that, I was on Twitter, talking about how, in a just world, the guidebooks would be readily available, especially digitally. I think, "Hey, these are pretty good scans. That's a nice find."

And then, I click on the original poster's profile.
And then, I see the Mega link—and I knew instantly what I was about to get into.
 
I mean it's a fighting game, it's got to be balanced with all characters being relatively the same.

Plus it's not like the difference is notable unless you fight another player or a Red Potara enemy.
I think it's fine to make some characters noticeably stronger than others. I don't think anyone is fanboying over the Saibamen and gets upset if it's weaker than everything else by a large margin.

SaibaCHADS will dominate online play. Talentless Gogeta mains will be left sobbing in a crater.

It is just us who try to nitpicking about canon, people over there in Japan who maintain the verse isn't, to them all are canon

The weakest one is before Shadow Dragon Mission which mostly scale to DBZ Toei and early DBGT which get stomped easily by Super since most of them scale to 1 Macrocosm, Shadow Dragon however jump straight to destroy timelines which is Low 1-C so they stomp Super to hell and back
It should be like this, DBZ stuff has the script by Akira Toriyama, in addition to making filler and some additions, here at fans we consider DBH cosmology existing in the same multiverse and DBH characters are from another timeline.

Huh. In Dai.3, for OG Dragon Ball they use the re-animated/original scenes from one of the Dragon Ball movies that goes over the first few Sagas in an abridged/retelling. Cool. Seems even Commander Black’s design was seen as out of date by even that point, decades ago.
 
There is an IGN China interview going around where Furutani implies GT won't be in the base game (he cites that they are 'considering' GT characters due to their role in past Budokai games, so possibly Season 2 DLC) but I have seen some people going around saying the IGN article may have misused the term 'GT' or something.

Don't take that as an ironclad rejection. Just...an interesting interview statement that may or may not mean GT won't be present in the base game or Season 1 DLC.

EDIT: Here is the Twitter thread on it because there are conflicting translations and interpretations.

I imagine this means the other Toei Canon characters too. Characters like Hirudegarn, Z Broly, etc. It seems they’re focusing on canon (and Z Bardock) for now.

Also, I doubt the conflicting TL is right, because GT is there in untranslated/raw text/English form next to all the JP text.

I would think that as well. But there are conflicting translations. Some imply GT is in the base game others imply that GT is only being 'considered' (so probably not base game this far into development). Unfortunately I don't really know Chinese so I can't discern the nuance for myself.
 
I think, right now, the only majorly relevant databooks I'm missing in their native language in regards to the original series are the Daizenshuu 2 (which is readily available in SD), Landmark/Forever, and the Chōzenshū 1. I'll probably download the El Manga Legendario in the future.

Did you find anything interesting? I imagine you at least skimmed/glanced at a good few of the guides, knowing you.
 
uh.



I was primarily perusing through the books looking for any information about the Ultra Divine Water & Goku's Great Ape power and how much more powerful King Piccolo became after returning to his former power, and I didn't really find much of anything useful.

Interestingly, though, the Extreme Battle Collection: Round 2 claims that Gohan was "on par" with Goku at the time of the fight with Dabura, which is... ???????
 
A slight upgrade from 0.744 Tons of TNT (Building level) to 1.45710394 Tons of TNT (Building level+).
Funnily enough, the latter is almost twice as high as the former.

Should we remove the "At least "and "possibly higher" in his 21st Budokai section? other profiles should also be updated I think
 
Saiyans are just Kryptonians with better hair
It’s actually this very thing I pointed out in the Hybrid thread. Kryptonians being hyper sensitive to all energies and radiations (as well as their ability to store them), combined with a Saiyan’s physiological response to Blutz Waves mean that, unlike an ordinary Saiyan, they should mean that the Hybrid gets to turn Oozaru whenever they want, or maintain it perpetually. And because their cells are supercharged/enhanced to be more efficient and bring out more power (hell, the Sun literally amplifies basic physical processes of Kryptonians at a cellular level, making tasks like basic thinking turn into supercomputer capacity), their forms would be superior to that of an ordinary Saiyan. So, for example, SSJ might be a 100x/SSJ2 level jump for them instead of 50x.

That combined with Saiyan strength growing in response to radiation means they’ll be constantly growing in strength from the Sun and Moon.
