In Portugal he's called Satan and in turn piccolo is little heart as in Satan's Little Heart. I think it comes from the French localisation

Same translation in Poland, we got DB/DBZ (and I think GT?) with a voice-over over French dialogue. I've still got the French DBZ intro song drilled into my head.

Wasn't 17 there when goku told everyone not to wish him back? If king kai was just broadcasting his voice down to the lookout rather than psychically linking him to the main characters specifically then that'd be when 17 heard his voice

Nope. 17 doesn't appear there at all. 18 is only there because Cell barfed her out.

The one panel in the manga (and corresponding scene in the anime) is literally the only time 17 appears at all prior to Super 17/17 in Super. There's a manga page of him coming back to life where Cell died post-Dragonball wish but that is from the Super manga.

Yeah, I think 17 gets brought back with the 'bring back everyone on Earth killed by Cell' wish.

In terms of villanous breakdowns, Cell's is still right at the top for me, he flips from being cocky and in charge into a panicking mess who then does nothing but flail at SSJ2 Gohan before bellowing and howling after he spits 18 back up

Frieza probably had a more satisfying episode but Cell's was just humiliating

This’ll be the first one completely divorced from Toriyama (even GT had some of his designs at least), hope they’ve got a decent staff at the helm

True, if you dropped Black Frieza you could possibly make a conclusion to Super out of what’s left of the manga (the Super Hero rehash I could take or leave)

Maybe they'll do some distant future or distant past. Completely divorced from our group but in the same universe. Or maybe they'll look at the other universes we know and have adventures with them.

Honestly, I'd love to see a spin-off of some kind that doesn't have the main cast, but I doubt they'll ever make a Dragon Ball without Goku

Nozawa is unfortunately going to die at some point, and she voices Goku, Scholar Goku, and Stoner Goku, along with Father of Goku and Evil Goku. Going to be hard to do the series without half the potential main characters.

Seriously though, I wonder if they haven’t gotten any replacements waiting in the wings already (it’s amazing the woman can still pull off what’s needed for a Dragon Ball character at her age)

Voiceover work has always been a super-serious thing in Japan so there is absolutely someone in waiting who has thanklessly been obliterating their own lungs and vocals to get that Nozawa sound for the last 20 years.

The Time I Got Reincarnated is really short, you could do it in like 90 minutes runtime tops and that's expanding out fights.

The biggest problem is Yamcha's voice actor but if there's ever a justifiable reason to recast a dude, reincarnation is it.

Did he not already get recast in Daima? I know some other characters that guy’s voiced have gotten new actors at least

I feel like if that one were to get adapted it wouldn't be a straight adaptation, instead taking the basic concept and stretching it out more to cover more of the franchise than the manga did

Looks like having multiple female fighters wasn't seen as common for the series until Budokai:

Dragon Ball Z: Super Butōden (1993) - Android 18

Dragon Ball Z: Budokai 2 (2003) - Android 18, Videl

Dragon Ball Z: Budokai Tenkaichi 2 (2006) - Android 18, Videl, Zangya

Dragon Ball Z: Budokai Tenkaichi 3 (2007) - Android 18, Arale Norimaki, Chi-Chi, Fasha, Pan, Videl, Zangya

Dragon Ball: Sparking! Zero (2024) - Android 18, Caulifla, Kale, Kefla, Kakunsa, Pan, Ribrianne, Roasie, Videl
Pretty much.

Super Butōden 2 (later in 1993) traded 18 for Zangya, since it focused on the Cell Games, Broly, and Bojack. <- the first DB game I played
Super Butōden 3 (1994) brought 18 back, but Videl was nowhere to be found.

Trashy fighting games, but my friends and I loved those beam battles. I appreciate FighterZ wasn't afraid of having more women fighting, though I have to wonder if all the Goku clones outnumber them.

Gokus: base, SS, SSB, UI, GT. 5. If you want to count part -Gokus too, then Vegetto, Gogeta and Goku Black, half a point each. 6.5.

Women: 18, 21 evil, 21 good, Videl, Kefla. 5.

So there are as many women as there are full Gokus, and less women if we count half-Gokus.

Not really a matter of filler and more that Reincarnated is a bit too breezy in its pacing, which works okay as a one shot manga but wouldn't as an anime

Although on the topic of Dragon Ball adjacent manga they could probably do a Jaco adaptation, or even do something with Neko Majin Z if they want to get weird with things

The best parts of Dragon Ball Super was slice of life episodes that were probably "filler" tbh.

*Orange: nothing so far
*Yellow: Super Saiyan (1/2/3)
*Green: Legendary Super Saiyan
*Blue: Super Saiyan God Super Saiyan
*Indigo: Super Saiyan Blue (Evolved)
*Violet: Ultra Ego

So yes, only orange, though we've had an orange-ish Super Saiyan in Cumber in Heroes.
