I am the exact opposite of a Nintendo stan (or a Ark/Wildcard stan), but seeing Palworld make tens of millions of dollars off of the most blatantly creative bankrupt, poorly put together asset flip game is so depressing. Their entire company strategy seems to be theft.

The thing you *actually* have to understand about Dragon Ball is that Funimation (and Viz) love to turn it into a parody for no reason because they often do not treat it with as much respect as it deserves. (Images: the actual japanese lines)

It isn't even just the stolen or "borrowed" content, either. The entire game is comprised of the UE5 default assets and barely functional animations. The entire thing just reeks of "pump this game out and make some quick millions before it dies off"

Toriyama did not seem like a guy whose identity was his work at all. But man... it just seems so deeply unfair and hurtful that he would not get to see to fruition Daima, the one Dragon Ball project in the last decade that he seemed genuinely passionate about.

Note: This is mostly a joke. What skin tone Toriyama gave Goku (or anyone, for that matter) varied wildly. But in general, I'd say the anime DID trend noticably lighter than Toriyama's full color pages and illustrations.

KamehaCon has now come out and re-added a person to their roster that is well known among the community for violating guests (including minors). To the point where both RT and Funi fired him. Let me make this abundantly clear. KamehaCon does not care about its patrons' safety.

@Jade_shitpost Game freak sucking ass at making video games does not mean people should be able to just steal their artists' work. Also, the game steals from BOTW, Ark, Fan art, and so on. Also, yes, it is an asset flip to an extent. Not in the creature designs, but in the enviro, fx, etc

Unfortunate truth: power scaling matters in DB. Db is a battle Shonen, much of its narrative tension is derived from power struggles, and the ability to overcome them. If powers are inconsistent and ham fisted, that narrative tension loses credence.

I'm not even some IP purist or anything. Many of the worlds games started with EXTREME "inspiration" from existing games. But they ruled & succeeded because they took that, & did something with it. Tried something new, poured some additional soul into it. There is nothing here.

The contiguous run of the 22nd Tenkaichi Budokai arc, through Demon King Piccolo, all the way to the end of the 23rd Tenkaichi Budokai, has every right to be considered the best run of manga ever produced. It is impossible to put down once started, and a masterpiece.

The Yo Son Goku special is such a primo example of how much the color pallate and background design really matters. The designs we got for the characters were largely similar to what we'd get for Super. But the difference in those two aspects really makes a world of difference.

For all his incredible music he created for Dragon Ball, ultimately I don't think any of Sumitomo's contributions will ever surpass Bardock Falls. Just an incredible, insane, 5 minute long, multi-part, to-scene work. I dont even like DB Minus, but the score completely sells it.

Since this thread attracted attention, let's clarify a few things: This game is creatively devoid not solely because it clearly stole loads of Pokémon designs, but because it has almost *nothing* unique of its own going on. Everything* is either a ripoff or an asset store asset

Heres something people are going to call a hot take, but its not. The two most prominent, important problems with the way dragon ball super/modern db looked are color and line weight. Yes the designs were worse than before, but that impact pales in comparison to the other 2.

Now that I can talk about it, Shintani returning for Super 2 is truly the most blessed thing that could possibly happen. Not only are his designs so wonderful and faithful, but his corrections (and the style he landed on by the time broli came out) was the best in the movie imo.
