what if dragon ball was bought by marvel or dc

[HAKKAIDER]

if dragon ball were bought by marvel or DC, provided the story continues where it left off, and that the personajens cannot be retched or relocated or their personalities changed without returning to normal or a natural evolution of their personalities. (in canon)

as you think the characters could be improved or made worse in terms of powers, abilities and development

edit

ps the story of the characters can change, only their personality cannot be changed without unnatural justifications

Depending on the writer, the power scaling either gets even worse or far more consistent

examples???

What do you mean examples?

Many things.

One of them is making Android 16 beat Goku, Vegeta, and pretty much any of the male cast (Which is 90% of Dragon Ball) in hand-to-hand to represent strong indepedient woman.

They can represent the race of Saiyains as a allegory of patriarchy and misogyny, and the namekian a reference to oppressed groups suchas LGBTs and people of colour.

Well, the story would stop being entertaining and self-contained, and switch to being completely incoherent and irrational, and become filled with pretentious metafiction and intense intersectional identity politics propaganda. So I would likely strongly dislike the results.

This reminds me, Marvel partnered with Shonen Jump to publish their iconic IPs but writen by mangakas.

MMMhh, this sort of crossover may happen at some point...

They are desperate because manga is outselling their awful propaganda comicbooks even in the United States, and are vastly more popular worldwide.

This.

They aslo recently partnered with Game Workshops (Producers of Warhammer 40,000) and Riot Games (League of Legends) way back then.

Ant@ Honestly, I think we may better just shut up, because those topics tend to always lead to negativity, and I don't feel like crippling HAKKAI thread with these vibes.

I'm Out.

Yes, you are correct. I will lock this thread.
