There's still a pretty wide gap between the top fighters and the fodder, just like in the anime, but given that we didn't spend a lot of time developing every member of the team, it feels way more appropriate. I also like Kefla a lot. Like, the Broly thing I never really liked (I wasn't a huge fan of the Broly movies), but her just being incredibly talented in base form but not wanting to overshadow Kale is something I can get behind. Kinda like Trunks and Vegeta back vs Cell. | ||

Yea I wasn't trying to sound fully convinced that it won't devolve into what happened in the anime. However, at-least the manga doesn't have any inclination thus far that some furry losers (or otherwise) would fully commit to take down U7 from the get go for no real tactical reason. Nor is U10 (namely Jiren) just standing around like he was in the animation arc. I just hope the manga doesn't give U7 a 90 percent knockout count like the animation did. That to me truly made U6 and U10 look plain silly. | ||

I mean, it still doesn't fix the Zamasu arc, but at least Goku used Hakai that one time. That's still better. Same. I would not mind if they just straight up rewrote the ending of Zamasu. I just remember thinking "oh god, no" as soon as I saw that scythe. I couldn't help but wonder if whoever wrote that had even seen DBZ before. It was just such generic, out of place bullshit. | ||

They couldn't use the "fusion kills immortality" obvious out because they needed Zeno to erase shit because they had Goku promise Zeno a playmate. Really, really bad writing ruined a good arc. It's like they assigned one person to writing the first 90% and another person writing the last 10%. They were both told to not talk to each other under any circumstances. At the end of 3 months, smash the two together and ship it. | ||

Before Super kai. I actually want the first part dragonball given a new animation. A high quality stuff. I dream of something like netflix having a deal woth toei and animate those stuff with propper teams doing it. And not a continuous every week anime but a season thing. A arc a season. To give it some prepartion and to retain the quality. Plus, you can give each season a subtitle. Tje very first could be callee Dragonball: A journey to the west. | ||

Vegito was pretty brutal. The anime fight had nice animation, but lacked the overwhelmingness and brutality that Vegito showed in the manga. Anime also tend to 'hide' blood a lot more than the manga | ||

The premature ending because of too much power is okay, but being a time limit in the first place is not. The fusion could end anyway without a time limit. Vegito seemed confident in the manga that he was so much ahead of Zamas that he could desintegrate him through his immortality. Vegito was pretty brutal. The anime fight had nice animation, but lacked the overwhelmingness and brutality that Vegito showed in the manga. Anime also tend to 'hide' blood a lot more than the manga Make Dragonball Bloody Again! | ||

U11 only Jiren eliminated people (low single digits of people though). Universe 7 did like 75% of the eliminations on the other Universes and to make things even better, Roshi, Tien, Gohan, 17 and 18 all pretty much eliminated themselves. They gave the other universes nothing. | ||
