Is Dragon Ball Online still canon?

No, but elements of it were implemented in Dragon Ball Xenoverse like Time Patrol Trunks, Mira, Towa, etc.

However, the events in it are so far out, spanning more than a hundred years, that you can consider it canon if you wanted. Do whatever the hell you want. It's just that it won't fit under the Super canon.

Is Xenoverse worth playing?
 
Wish we saw frieza train episode 20.
Trunks who never stops training, eventually reached SS2. Only for Babidi to come and using his minions (different from the ones we knew) to start causing havoc on the planet. Trunks defeats them all with minimal strife only to release Buu. Not being able to overcome Buu trained until he reached his most powerful form yet, SS3!

Trunks get his timeline's 16 as his buddy. Bumla through upgrades makes him stronger. Etc etc
Trunks was nearly SS2 he just had to find out how to not get really buff. Buu would never get revived in Trunks timeline since he isnt an idiot and would be able to defeat Dabura.
Doesnt mean he has to be a bitch. He was meant to be a scholar in ki and training.

exactly. He could be lil' Whis.
 
Most of the backstory additions in DB Online seemed like they were specifically written to set up the MMO aspect of the game: Buu spawning a wife and an entire race of Buus, Nameks being conveniently all displaced to Earth, the humans having Saiyan blood thanks to crossbreeding with the Z Fighters' descendants, the Z Fighters having had a large impact on society even though they always prefered anonymity in the manga/anime, etc. These events just seem strange if taken out of the game's context.
 
They're going through RoF quickly? That's kinda a shame. I liked the movie but i think it would actually benefit from being extended.

I'm relieved. Some of the expansion of BoG was worthwhile, but a lot of it was making me lose interest until the last few. They could expand on RoF without making it *too* long.

And all the cool crap is right around the corner from RoF anyways, so I'm excited to be done with it.
 
Besides, based on the manga spoilers for Super,
it does seem like they're sticking with the End of Z. Goten and Trunks won't be going to the Universe 6 tournament, but Buu will be there, which lines up with them being weaker than Buu in the end of Z.

Goten and Trunks would be weaker than Buu anyway. They're SSJ1 level, Buu went toe to toe with (and was stronger than) SSJ2 Vegeta.
 
Is Dragon Ball Online still canon?

At this point, I don't think so. People considered it canon because Toriyama had some creative involvement, but it was never exactly clear how much he contributed. I've been able to find some information about a couple of specific details - like how he was the one that came up with the different Namek types, with physical changes,like different head crests, rather than antennas, and also facial markings. However, considering how many of those setting elements clearly were designed with the whole MMO aspect in mind, it's very possible that even the Toriyama created elements won't be used by him in the actual new stories. For example, if we see the Nameks again, I don't think we'll see some of them with those new design templates from DBOnline/Xenoverse.

Goten and Trunks would be weaker than Buu anyway. They're SSJ1 level, Buu went toe to toe with (and was stronger than) SSJ2 Vegeta.

Yes, they were weaker in the Buu Saga itself, and the End of Z established that they were still weaker by that point. But I referenced that because it means that, if Super is sticking with the End of Z, Goten and Trunks can never become stronger than Buu, unless Super goes past the Z epilogue. Super manga spoilers,
If they were going to participate in the Universe 6 tournament, it's very likely they'd get some kind of power up that would contradict their status in the End of Z, but with Buu going and those two not participating, it lines up with their status there.
 
Goten and trunks went toe to toe with super buu??

Not separately.

Gotcha.
 
lol at Frieza "Zarbon and Dodoria would never say such a thing,It would be too boring if i kill you now you will pass all your life crawling instead!"

Well technically Goten and Trunks could get stronger than Buu and Buu could get a powerup later on to surpass them again, but I don't expect it.
 
Laughed so hard at Jaco's drawing.
Something that disappoints me is that we totally missed Frieza's training and it seems like, apart from Goku and Vegeta showing initial bursts of Blue SS power, we won't actually see them reaching that form for the first time due to the time skip. Hopefully I'll be proven wrong, but I'm not keeping my hopes up.
 
"Even the five of us together can't defeat an army of 1,000 Freeza warriors" - Gohan


YES YOU FUCKING CAN GODDAMNIT ARHGHGHALGJKLK

The time skip is over, next episode is the grand army battle.

Im surprised at how much is exactly the same while they change certain things that are kinda important to how it will play out (Ginyu and Tagoma? i could not believe it)

Is Super the real edition of these events?
 
"Even the five of us together can't defeat an army of 1,000 Freeza warriors" - Gohan

The actual line is closer to "Even if there are 1000 of them, we five won't lose!"

Although in the Super version of the story they apparently will have problems with the elite of Freeza's army, since they also did Freeza's training regiment and got big boosts from it according to the spoilers.
 
Anyone else really bothered by the fact that everyone's so skinny now? Freeza looked practically no different from that Chilled guy or whatever from that shitty Bardock movie.

Okay, that makes it slightly less retarded then.
 
And piccolo. He has a chance at becoming useful again. But yeah Gohan leaving the show would be no huge loss at this point along with a few others.

Maybe in your opinion - and that's fine - but Dragon Ball has so many other characters that many fans, including myself, would like to see in the spotlight in a similar fashion to what we saw during the first 3/4s of Z. Piccolo getting some love after so long is a step in the right direction, but it shouldn't end with him.

I will never give up hope!! Im holding on to the fact toriyama is hiding the fact the god ritual was performed on gohan,goten amd trunks!! Believe!! And somehow some way Ssb gotenks will happen!!.

I really don't see any of the humans getting a significant power boost at all. I'll be immensely surprised if they do.

One thing I wanna see is Mr Satan learning to manipulate his Ki energy funnily enough.

The story in Dragon Ball Heroes is so ridiculous but I think I like it lol.
 
Might as well tell people to give up on everyone not Goku and Vegeta with that attitude.

The only improvement Toriyama will give Gohan would be to have him change from a getting a liberal arts degree to a STEM degree from Tokyo U.

There's your power up.

Gotta cling onto this fight since Oda has neglected Sanji for like 3 years now
 
Haven't read this thread much lately as I'm trying to avoid manga spoilers. Excited to get to the main Frieza fight and, more importantly, beyond.
 
"No wonder Beerus Sama personally chose them"

Ah good, I was hoping they'd go in the direction of Beerus being more of a long term calculator than just a seat of the pants whimsical god.
 
Pretty cool episode. As usual Beerus is entertaining. Love that character. And it was cool to see the Z fighters heading to a fight together again. Especially nice to see Krillin bald. Surprised by the lack of Yamcha though. I mean... He's even weaker than Master Roshi?
