So, I've finally decided on the proper ending to
#TheErasedChronicles
. It isn't going to end just yet (we're only in the Bio-Android resurgence arc, and I have two more arcs), but I now 100% know how to end it. It's going to hurt to say goodbye when that time comes.

@SLOplays
We joke about it, but Full Power Energy Wave is another good example of the detail Spike put into the Sparking series (that Dimps doesn't in XV2). Each character has a differing pose for the FPEW that suits their own style, and makes it feel like a different move for each of them
I LOVED this
#DragonBallSuper
chapter. What people fail to realise is Bardock electing to spare THREE people because he was reminded of his wife & son doesn't make him soft. It actually gives him more complexity than the OG Bardock. Saiyans are more fascinating with depth.
@DanaTheWana
People forget how the process of death works in Dragon Ball. Beyond Freeza - who is a unique exception - evil souls are purified and reincarnated. Vegeta III and Bardock's souls likely are no longer in the afterlife. They've been reincarnated into the living world as new beings.

@DBHotTakes
And this is why no one involved in officially writing Dragon Ball reaches out to fans for advice. The entire point of Gokū working with No. 17 and Freeza - two former enemies - to take down Jiren for the sake of their universe was to drive home the message of trust.

@MaruHaky
The logic is DBS Vegeta outscales everyone in GT.
Cabba is somehow equal to base Vegeta (don't ask, I still don't get it, but this is what Vegeta himself said iirc).
Therefore, extrapolating, Cabba is also superior in strength to the GT cast.
I got this commission from the wonderful

To anyone with even a passing interest in the fic:
Unlike with the Gohan Black art I saw creeping up a year or so ago - which I 100% believe was inspired by some of my fanart getting onto YT - I don't think I am responsible for the massive influx of

Super Saiyan God. I am huge fan of its design - the calm, thin appearance which is at entire odds with the immense power it possesses - but also the way it expanded on Saiyan lore & history & basically launched a new era of Dragon Ball. I wish it was the strongest Saiyan form.
@FATHER_CLEF
You forget that Sparking is THE arena fighter. Dragon Ball arena fighters started with Sparking, and every anime 3D fighter has been chasing Sparking - and to a lesser extent, Storm, which is just lesser Sparking anyway - since it came out. This is not "every other" arena fighter
Because I love

These 100% should have been their outfits until the end of Super. Gokū's even feels like it fucking leads into his End of Z gi - it abandons the undergarments, changes to a looser obi, and everything. And Vegeta's was made by Bulma; it was Earthling-made.

It's a perfectly fine mentality. Not every character in a game is going to be to your taste. You do not need to use every character in a game. He played fine in the previous game, he will play fine here.
@KetchupNoSauce
@SLOplays
That's an accusation. You need to wait until you have the game in your hands to make. I don't like that Great Saiyaman is in the game. I'm not going to call it lazy or cutting corners.
@BattleObsessed
I continue to hate this every single time I see someone do it and seriously mean it. At what point in the fandom did Gokū's birth name become another term for when he's just being ruthless?
@sigmarshanks
Yeah, that's why Gear 5 is constantly referenced in other anime and manga throughout its illustrious history. Gear 5 is nowhere near "iconic", and the most iconic transformation in anime and manga history will ALWAYS be Super Saiyan.
@isjustKaijuOkay
@justAguy0507
Said a lot of fans who actually value a literal third of the Toriyama narrative and half of the original manga. I 100% wanted to use Piccolo. Most true Dragon Ball fans do.
@Vebills3
I assume we're referring to the really cool hair of his that points forward? I like it, but this game does seem to take the Shintani art direction as its primary point of reference, and that movie did away with the spike entirely.
@thoughtsj0urnal
@Globku
I'm not a content creator, and while the news pleased me, I do actually feel bad for the people who worked hard to make the planned marketing material. This has to take the wind right out of their sails. Like, THIS SITUATION is why we didn't get a demo and it still happened.
@justAguy0507
I don't think it's unfair to just finally acknowledge Bardock for once. It isn't like Gokū was like "WELL FUCK EARTH AND GOHAN NOW!" He's just gotten to his own understanding now of what it means to be a Saiyan, and regained his very limited memory from before he arrived on Earth

Shisami also did training during those several months, I believe. While I doubt he has Freeza-level potential, the DBS anime shows Tagoma making a MASSIVE leap in power by being used as a training partner with Freeza. So I assume Shisami had harsh training too
@Pochitadoll
given the death threats they send to Horikoshi, and the actual just...nitpicking and frequent complaints, I'd have thought the MHA fanbase would be "holy shit where do I begin"

@DBHotTakes
One of Supers many flaws is that it hardly tries to tell a story or convey a message; this was one of the few times it did, having Gokū fight side-by-side, placing his trust wholeheartedly in Freeza and No. 17, against a man who can't trust anyone.
@ichighollow90
@NNezukoV2
Mate, I love Sakura, but she is not the best example of a well-written female character. I give her major props for trying, but she hardly ever succeeds, obsesses over a man who tried to kill her more than once, and is generally a burden rather than a help.

They mentioned 20+ characters. I expect the Super Hero DLC to be:
Piccolo (Super)
-Piccolo (Potential Released)
-Piccolo (Orange)
Gohan (Super)
-Gohan (SSJ)
-Gohan (Potential)
-Gohan (Beast)
Gamma 1
Gamma 2

That's already 10 and that's just Super Hero
I find it weirdly amusing when modern

gives us any sort of fanservice angles, as the original manga definitely didn't mind much more explicit shots than this. Reminds me of what they did to that poor NPC in

@AnelotDemon
for the hard work!
@Renaldo_Saiyan
They took the concept of an "evil Gokū", which sounds TERRIBLE, and made it work wonderfully by giving Black similar traits to Gokū, but highlighting them in the negative. Furthermore, the fact that he has actual ideals and motivations for doing what he's doing makes him amazing.
@SLOplays
It's such a unique thing, because they went with the limited assets and ideas they had, and just tried their best to make it feel unique. Like, they know Cui has at least ONE fan out there, so they wanted to make sure Cui's fan was rewarded for using him. I like it.
@IronicnotSavage
Because she's not. She's dark-skinned asian, but she is not black. It's the same with Yoruichi. Not every dark skinned character in anike and manga is black - I get we don't have the most representation, but don't call characters black who aren't.
@Pure_Rage136
It's...really not inaccurate, actually. Hell, I think this was the first time we really saw him fight in base state since then as well; every other fight was Super Saiyan. It was honestly refreshing.
And this is why the IchiHime fanbase rankles the hell out of me. They see IchiRuki fans having anything, anything at all, and have to prove themselves the worst part of the fandom by ruining it - this time by just stealing from an artist.
@DBSparkingNews
I think I know why we're not getting a demo too.
I don't think they're able to scrub the secret character from the data for some reason, so this would reveal who it is before they want to reveal it.
And people will datamine the FUCKING SHIT out of this demo if we get it
This is the biggest reason I am happy Gokū is learning about his parents. As a child, he thought they abandoned him. He didn't CARE but it still hurt when you see Minus and realise what did happen. So this makes me happy.

@Baggie_Saiyan
I used to fall under the trap of "Gokū is a bad father" as well, and I was very surprised that it never infected my writing. Because I had been writing a fanfic for years before I came to realise Gokū has always been doing the best he could do.
I legit do not think I have ever seen the DB side of twitter this united on anything since Toriyama-sensei's passing earlier this year. Its looks to be unanimously agreed Geekdom leaking shit like he did was an absolute horrid move.

@AlexOfAqua
@Pochitadoll
Bulma is definitely the most important character in the series, but I think people are more concerned with the lack of female fighters - especially in Dragon Ball, as we didn't get any good ones outside of 18 until DBS and even then everyone shits on them.

Pokemon is not geared towards "adults only". The closest you will get is BDSP's Pokemon League - which will be harder than most children are ready for - and PLA - which is overall more difficult than other mainline games. If you think Pokemon is too easy, move on.
