I know that Toriyama's style become more angular after awhile. Apparently, he would become bored of drawing one way and would try another. The change between the roundness of DragonBall and early DBZ and the angular lines of later DBZ is a prime example of such.

Toriyama didn't draw the frames in the anime. Those were all done by animators. In fact, you can see rather jarring changes between episodes in style if you pay attention.

Anyone read Dragon Ball Multiverse? I have been reading it since 2008 and I think the new special is alright. It's a let down compare to the last two that we had but I wish they had Kakarot growing up and how he destroy all life on Earth. I tend to enjoy all of the specials expect for the Bojack one.

I like multiverse but I don't like Vegito choosing Bulma over Chi-Chi and saying Goku and the others have reached an age limit with their power and that they can't bet Frieza in their base forms.

Other than that it's nice. Broly should have used LSSJ3 against Vegito however and it would have been cool to get an Xicor universe so he could fight Vegito.

Man I just got back from this one Dragonball Board and I believe some of the guys over there are confused with their power levels.

Oh, not this shit.

The entire point of Toriyama putting power levels in Dragon Ball in the first place was to show that they're stupid, and you can't put a number to something almost entirely spiritual like chi and expect to actually use it well.

Power Level debates are a complete waste of time. I remember on the MFG forums that people would fight over fan made numbers.

Evidence?

Oh, yes. I'm back to challenge you.

In more ways than just sexually.

I was hoping for an interview.

Of course, power levels are squat after 9001.

That's a bit too arrogant don't ya think? Surely a forum full of DBZ fans know more about DBZ than people here, like we know more about Godzilla than they do.

Try a bit harder next time ;)

They were saying FP SSJ3 Goku is stronger than SSJ Vegito because Kid Buu is stronger than Buuhan.

Oh, well that is backwards.

I thought you meant literal power levels.

Why are you making it sound like just because were not on a DBZ board we have less knowledge of DBZ.

So Kai is indeed getting a Boo saga. I'm actually very excited for this.

I hope this version of the Buu saga will clear up the Goku vs Gotenks debate.
