(L) Dragon Ball Super

For me it's probably because of how an entire episode can go by and it still feels like barely anything happened.

Just like the old days.

There's a 3D version of ep. 12 floating around...

DBZ anime's pacing was bad even for the old days' standard back then. You'd think that after all these years the writing & directing will improve even just a liiiitle bit (especially since this is anime-original material), but noooooo......... You can't expect good things from Toei, let alone great . This is why I'm pretty much a DB-manga-only fan and only watch the TV series for amusement. And seeing DBZ and now DBS TV series so far, I couldn't be happier with my status.

Why the pacing can't be like the old DB series or DBZ movies? If they really want to extend the story, please add some plot/side-story/anything that is worthy to fill the time, not just watching drawn-out scenes of two dudes screaming their lungs out powering up and then delivering lame-ass-looking punches. It's funny how this "punches that can end the universe" has no tension or impact to me at all compared to, say, boxing punches thrown in Hajime no Ippo. That's an obvious sign of a reeeeaaaly bad execution on DBS part.

And this week's DragonballSuper... Well, we spent most of the episode on Goku and Beerus trying to push that ki ball against each other. Then in the end, we get Goku's God form fizzling out... But of COURSE that's just the start of the brawl.

Looks like we're getting the whole of next episode of Goku as SSJ matching Beerus. Oi.

I see DBZ's pacing is back in full swing. Do we REALLY need to have another episode on Goku-as-SSJ battling Beerus, but this time equally and not a curbstomp?

[Stark700]

Hmm........

This felt a bit repetitive but I must say, Beerus and Goku seems to be really enjoying fighting in space.

wow dragon ball and his SUPER SLOWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW WWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW pace, omg if beerus x goku was like that i'm afraid of freeza and the champa, how will be??? 99999999 episodes for each??? lol, i love good fights but omg this is just torture specially when we somehow already know how things gonna end.

[ninjastarforcex]

aaah good ol' snail-paced dragon ball z

[chaos_animagic]

well, looks like my question from earlier can be true.

Since he's back to regular Saiyan, BUT kept God's power (fused inside him)...

This means he can technically go Super Saiyan 2 WITH God's power... than SSJ3... super OP.

This happened in the movie too -- Goku's God form fizzles out but he doesn't notice it, and he continues matching Beerus despite not knowing this, implying that he had internalized the God energy enough that the drop in power wasn't noticeable.

Here though, Beerus actually had to point it out to him. This is significant. Goku KNOWS he doesn't have God energy anymore in Super, but here he still decides to fight on anyway.

Anyone else curious to what happened 900 years ago to make Beerus happy?

DBS 15 preview: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oNldwDNOUmA

Spoiler:

I am dreaming or Mr Satan is a saiyan?

EDIT: Aw i got excited for nothing, forget about that. He's saving the earth again

[Peanutbutter]

That's it for the BoG arc, I guess.

Filler next? From the preview, oh boy.

P.S: Was there a change to Kaio's VA? Seems like it.
P.P.S: Just googled it. There was a change. I'm late to the news apparently.

[GDB]

Oh boy, so next we get Mr Satan making a movie/reproduction of Goku vs Beerus but with him as the hero.

Interesting though if they do make Vegeta unlock SSJG by himself. That'd be a huge moment.

Seeing how Super was at its most enjoyable in its first two "filler" episodes and then the fun-factor plummeted once the plot started, I'd say this is a good thing.

That said, episode 14... Holy shit I actually enjoyed that. A lot. That was honestly a pretty fantastic closer to the arc, even if the arc itself was like, GT-level boring.

[ninjastarforcex]

watching this after fukkatsu no f

[Wandering Soul]

The BoG segments is over and it at least ended on a high note. The filler episodes were fun so I don't mind going back to them for a while.

Though why was Videl glaring at Mr Satan like she was expecting him to be able to do something?

[Stark700]

Lol, I find a lot of Beerus' reactions to be quite amusing for this arc. Wasn't much into the story though. I'm hoping the next arc will retain some of the humor as that PV looks silly already with Mr. Satan.
