Very cool
Incredible, I just watched this episode of DB about a month or so ago and I got a weird feeling when Goku did that. Now I know why.To save people the click
Check out this project that is being worked on. Rescoring Buu-Kai with music from the arcs before it.

You owe it to yourself to see the difference the music makes.

fuckin' called it, man
Nah it's really good. There are jokes and references thrown out constantly and they all hit, for me at least. Do not be fooled by the ending that gets posted all the time, the whole thing is amazing.

I'll give you credit for addressing this at least.
Pretty much where I stand.
A real damn shame he's gone. The entire series is worse off for his sacking. Tch.
The rescoring efforts are nice, but the fact that we'll never hear him compose a new track for the series just puts me down in the dumps.
To be fair most of the tracks were plagiarized

If he had composed an original OST in the first place, he wouldn't have been fired.
I'm more upset how they handled his replacement score and the composer who did the Battle of Z anime cut-scenes/Episode of Bardock was dropped.
Speaking of Super Attacks in Dragon Ball FighterZ.
Buu needs one where Satan tries to step in and gets hurt, leading to:
EDIT: I posted this in the wrong thread but I guess it's ok.
Lol I'm imagining it like Sub Zero's ice clone that freezes you if you hit it.
Hit the Satan bait and get OHKO'd.

Only a few tracks (at least in the Kai soundtrack) could be called "plagiarized", and even then there's room for argument on what qualifies as that versus an homage or whatnot. Copying a horn section but changing everything else, for example, isn't really straight plagiarism (in fact, it's something composers do all the bloody time).
Personally, I think the whole thing is overblown, but Toei will do as Toei does. Better safe than sorry, hm?
But how am I going to know it's a callback without a reworked flashback?
He had a looooong history of this, and a lot of his music goes a lot further than copying a horn section.
I have nostalgia for him because of his game soundtracks - that's the real Dragonball sound as far as I'm concerned - but he absolutely should have had the result he did. And he probably should have had it much earlier, when the problem was originally known.
I'm well aware of the things he did with the video game soundtracks.
No point telling me, though, because I really don't care. I just don't like Sumitomo's work anywhere nearly as much. At the very least, someone with a style closer to Yamamoto's would've been great. As it is, there's only a scant handful of tracks in Super (and a few from his Buu Kai run) that I actually give a damn about, and the rest is pretty much forgettable tripe as far as I'm concerned. That being said, I suppose that's better than my complete lack of attachment to Kikuchi's work, who I really can't bear to listen to for more than a few minutes at a time before I tune out. (Sorry, old-timers.)
The tracks of this new arc have all been insane. The quality has quadrupled.

Sick
I can agree with that, I suppose, Kikuchi rarely did anything for me either. I only really liked Piccolo's theme. But the fact that I like Yamamoto when he actually tries makes it seem more shameful to me that he stopped. He didn't need to be a hack.
Super's OST is okay, doesn't really feel like anything to me. Kind of all over the place. I just don't like the piano bits because that's where it feels liked another anime has skinned Dragonball and is wearing its hide as a form of camouflage.

The one bad thing about Dragon Ball FighterZ getting so much attention is the hot takes from people who don't even watch Super about how bad the show is.
It doesn't help that the dub is where it is...
Clearly, you have to not play FighterZ and then just do hot takes against it so that the universe is in balance.

But the game looks so good...
That's the least hot take I've ever seen. Obviously you're not cut out to be the hero, you're on jobber duty now.

I don't think so, I think most will stick around through the F arc because they know new stuff is coming. Super also makes a lot of noise online with cool stuff, so I think a lot of people with stick it out.
I only started watching Super when people started seeing avatars of Goku Black (Super Saiyan Rose Goku Black) because I was waiting until the series progressed enough that I could marathon it. That was the point where I couldn't resist anymore. Maybe other people might have a similar experience?
I miss those old Realplayer ones.

Vegeta Adam's Song, Piccolo vs 17 Powderburn, Frieza Papa Roach Cut My Life, Future Trunks It's My Life Bon Jovi
lol
This is bringing back memories of Pojo, angelfire, and power level calculators.
Future Trunks arc is when simulcasts started showing, so that's when I started watching Super.

I'd guess most people watch it for the episodic cases in the first place, not really the main story.
So Screwattack pitted Android 18 in a Death Battle with Captain Marvel.
18 vs Marvel
18 vs Marvel
Android 18 rightfully won.
Maybe an unpopular opinion, but I think Goku should have won the fights they did of him against Superman.
Superman (and The Flash) will always win any of these fictional fights simply because of the fucking bonkers stuff that they've done in the comics.

Pretty much, though that's what happens when you have 70+ years of comic history behind you.
I used to think that Goku could beat Superman easily, but then I started watching Comicsexplained. And we can assume Superboy Prime isn't as powerful as Superman Prime One Million.

Holy fuck, those feels.

The funny thing is that it's technically not always the same superman but they treat it as a composite Superman taking all their feats. Like Pre-crisis Superman has met Post-Crisis. Pre-Flashpoint Supes took over after New 52 Supes died (though they fused now or some shit). Basically they can cherry pick a bunch of alternate supermen to work with because canonically the multiverse exists in DC, while there is only 1 Goku to follow.
dunno superman but at least the Flash would be easily defeated by any guy with a sword and some way of predicting what Flash would do
say, Zoro
thank Identity Crisis where a normal guy stabbed the Flash

We should be getting the Jump preview for next week's episode real soon.
In about 6 hours or so.

Haven't we gotten it a bit earlier in the day than that a few times?
Well sure, and a normal guy can defeat Superman too when bad writing is involved!
I don't watch any of those death battles, but I'm not gonna pass up the chance to justify the Flash being super over powered!
Only after a break.

Shockingly bad "research".
So I have a question for the Canadian fans here. I was looking up old versions of websites for the fun of it, and in one of the saved snapshots of one of our children's TV providers, I found this string of text:
From a quick check, this seemed to happen either around or before February 1998, and the episode they stop on is the Bubbles training episode. The odd number and stopping point give me pause that this ever happened, though. Do any of the Canadian fans remember watching Z on Teletoon?

"Gero, founder and lead scientist of the Red Ribbon Army."
Nope.
"They're actually cyborgs."
Also nope.
"It's also possible for her to absorb her enemy's energy."
Not it isn't.
I'm guessing they used Dragon Ball Wiki for their research.

What are 17 and 18 then though? I know Gero is a cyborg more or less, 16 and 19 are fully mechanical androids, but 17 and 18 are ambiguous as far as I know. I know the general conscious now is that they're genetically modified, but is this confirmed?

17 and 18's enhancements are biological, yes this is confirmed, right from the mouth of Toriyama.

Gero is a bit of semantics, he was A founder and was "effectively in control" per AT.
