Abridged series for a series that's still ongoing always seems like a bad idea. Kind of what made the original work is because the anime was old and just hitting the nostalgia zone while being absurd enough to have plenty of parody material. Dragon Ball Abridged is basically a dream team of TAS veterans putting their all into it. (I remember watching a buncha Sailor Moon Abridged and dropping off at some point) It's not easy to do well. They could totally do Dragon Ball Super Abridged, if only because it'd feel like a natural enough continuation. They've already done a few clips from it, apparently. (The one with Whis marriage counselling Goku and Vegeta, and Beerus and Goku ordering pizza)

I really like the WCF mini-figure line (it basically has every form of every character one way or another...it even has certain objects like the Dragon Radar), and they're nice because they're small enough to not take up a ton of space. I got these 2

I loving loved Naruto Abridged as an 11-12 year old kid. I got bored a couple nights back at work and tried watching it again for nostalgia value and christ it was so bad I then went on to do the same for the actual Naruto anime, with similar results. Dragon Ball, however, remains good.

You mean you don't find it funny that one of the writers turned sand lady into his literal irl girlfriend? You don't find that funny and not creepy? That said, I watched the Yugi v Kaibs duel in Darkest Dimensions and I can see why I liked it. It's just a Shonen Battle Anime with cards. Verbatim.

I remember LittleKuriboh’s Naruto Abridged “fan-based parody of a fan-based parody” being pretty good but it’s been a LONG time since I’ve watched it - no idea if it holds up. I like the idea of a series just directly making fun of Naruto Abridged, though. Naruto itself holds up really poorly and even as a kid I couldn’t make it through more than like five episodes of the famous “100 straight episodes of filler” section (though I was a pretty big fan before that, being a dumb kid and all). Dbz holds up way better in comparison, but I don’t think that’s really surprising considering how it managed to stay so relevant for decades. Edit: okay, well, the original anime itself aged pretty poorly, but you get what I mean Zinkraptor fucked around with this message at 17:47 on Nov 7, 2018 |

Well good to see that Vegeta doesn’t get sidelined in the movie. Was a little worried with the last trailer just having Goku fight Broly which looked like the finale. Goddamn Vegeta SSGS is rocking it. Kinda wished that Vegetas would be red and goku be Blue like kinda yin and yang thing but then we wouldn’t have gotten Prince of all Sparkles Royal Blue Vegeta.

Vegeta will eventually get sidelined, because when the chips are down he's simply not as good as Goku

True but least it won’t be like the old Broly movie.

I'm guessing that a big part of the movie is goku and vegeta really fighting together as a team, something they've always lacked. Then the'll have to finish the job via fusion

Calaveron posted:Elucidate Vegeta9595 or w/e his username was had a bit where the sand ninja girl was literallt in love with him irl as a joke. It was supposed to make fun of themselves and play up a gag of self-insert fanfiction (Masako broke the 4th wall and tried to stop him only to then to do the same thing to Hinata in a hypocritical twist meant also as a joke) but it's SUPER cringe (like your mother dabbing while making a bad joke about "Fort Night") and became a super cringe running gag.

Goku points out that (Broly?) "is not a bad guy". If he is talking about Broly, that once again points to him being a deeper character than the non-canon version. Here's Herms' translation: https://twitter.com/Herms98/status/1060309583946690560 That "he isn't fighting because he wants to" is once again a ridiculously big change from the original. Though it may mean the brain-washing, Broly was still heavily violent even without it. Also that last scream, holy poo poo. Almost makes me wish I wasn't going to watch this in Latin American Spanish.

Blaze Dragon posted:https://twitter.com/ArchedThunder/status/1060311591005020161 So now technically none of the Bardock appearance in the manga is contradicting anything else. Bardock could still theoretically change his clothes before making a stand against Freeza, and they just didn't show that in Minus. They might show it now in Broly. Raditz claiming Goku was sent off to destroy Earth could just be Raditz assuming because that was the norm and he didn't have anyone around to correct his misunderstanding. Lastly, manga-wise, it's never shown how old Kakarot was when Son Gohan found him, just stated that he was "a baby." Only the anime shows him as an infant. I'm wondering what people have left to complain about beyond a) not liking Bardock's new outfit, b) not liking that he's (slightly) less of a total piece of poo poo. Anyway, I think the movie looks amazing, and I kind of wish that the anime did one thing similarly to the Toyotaro manga: Make SSG (red) weaker, but consume less stamina, and SSGSS (Blue) stronger, but more draining. Basically, give them a reason to use both SSG and SSGSS. Kind of like the difference between SS and SS3, but Blue is actually useful compared to SS3.
