Dragon Ball FighterZ - Characters, Specials, and Stages Discussion

Well right now it seems all Super representation is based on the Frieza movie. All the characters alive at that point all seem to be having their designs pulled from there as well. (Can't wait for my green sweatsuit Gohan)

But it isn't? Blue Goku and Vegeta are based around the Universe 6 and Goku Black arcs.

Anyway I wasn't trying to police anybody I was just giving my reasoning why I don't think we'll get reps from the manga. The manga just doesn't seem to get the exposure the anime does.
 
Well yeah they're using their SSJ models as a base, which use their Battle of the Gods designs
Except for the fact they have moves which they've never done before Super. Look, this argument has been made before and got debunked the day they showed gameplay for SSB Goku and SSB Vegeta.

Super is fair game.

Super is fair game.

I'm not making the argument. Responding to the dude who said he thinks super representation will be from the anime over the manga with "yeah, it all has been so far". Most of the game pulls from RoF
 
I see you are all people of culture. Good picks. I'll say it; Green Tracksuit Gohan and scrawny Nerd messy hair Gohan from Super are his best Adult designs outside of Future Gohan.

I would also love Future Gohan, but Arale is my most wanted character for sure.

Green Tracksuit Gohan is my favorite because he isn't trying to look like Goku or Piccolo. He just looks like himself which is a bad ass nerd, lol.

He means that it is likely that they won't use the manga as a reference for their moveset. Like SSB Vegeta for example, he had a manga exclusive attack they could've used, but they didn't.

Or with Black, he's arguing that they'll focus on his moveset in the anime, rather than anything he does in the manga.

Nah...
 
I would love green tracksuit Gohan, but we'll most likely get the boring orange gi. If he did get the green tracksuit this better be his intro.

I really hope not since we have like 3-4 characters wearing that GI.

I like green track suit and glasses because it gives Gohan his own visual identity, vs dressing him up in either Goku's clothes or Piccolo's clothes, or something inbetween like the purple GI he wore during Buu saga

I'm more talking about the future in terms of moves and such. Heck ResF was skipped in the manga version.

I'm mainly referring to how moves and forms that so far been unique to the Super manga haven't been referenced to my knowledge outside the manga.

Like I haven't seen Goku
using Hakai anywhere else.

Also put me on team green tracksuit.

I wish they had kept this design or something close to it. Gohan being another guy with orange clothes is boring, but that's what we'll get. Destined to always live in the shadow of Goku or Piccolo.
 
Also Gohan looks absolutely terrible with that Cell Saga Yamcha hair cut. Give my man his bangs back instead or give him that haircut bc it reminds me of his Cell Saga cut. I agree that it makes Gohan seem way more like his own character and the nerdy personality sets him apart from the other Z-Fighters. Sucks that they don't really know what to do with Gohan it seems.
 
Oh yeah let him keep the glasses on in SSJ if he gets in the game like that.

Part of it is I think a lot of fans want Gohan to be as boring as possible. I remember seeing a lot of complaints about Gohan not being a more serious fighter in response to his showing in RoF, when that's sort of who he is. Even at the height of his power in Cell saga he was someone who hated fighting.

Pretty much this, yeah. Even the End of Z cemented that he stopped training and was a scholar. That was always what I liked about his character, dude never liked fighting but always rose to the occasion when he was needed. I know we'll be getting the orange Gi, but it would be really nice if we got one of his more original outfits, like the green tracksuit. Pipe dream, though.
 
Saiyaman w/ no Head-coverings and cape will always be my favorite version of Gohan.

The green and black always made for a solid outfit, in my opinion.
 
I bet you kale and caulifla are handled better in the manga than the anime.

The exhibition with beerus fighting the other gods is already better than what the anime did

Kale and Caulifla don't exist yet lol. But every other character (and their powers) have been handled with a bit more sense in the manga. So i'm really looking forward to Caulifa and Kale.

Pretty much this lol.

I mean what do people prefer?

This?

Or this?

Zamasu's moveset in the manga just makes more sense. Sayian strength mixed with the abilities of a Kai.

Furthermore, since Zamasu and Black basically had the same personalities in the Manga, his fused form is essentially exactly what he was aiming for -- One mind without conflict (his), a Sayian body, Kai/God powers, and immortality, with the ability to jump through timelines. His form was literally undefeatable without Zeno stepping in to hit the delete key.

Why does he need to have a halo and bird aura? What is this, Bleach? Where did it even come from lol

Because Zamasu is a complete drama queen with a literal god conplex. He openly admits his villainous monologues are entirely for himself. Of course his attacks would be just as flashy.

Zamasu in the manga was just a completely different character then. He wasn't a drama queen in the slightest, in fact he was the exact opposite.

Gohan fans always do this to themselves, this is what happen when you started watching DB with DBZ. He'll never be more than what he is, a C Tier Fighter and that's ok.
It's not his show.

LOL

When even Goku picks Piccolo over Gohan, then you know it's over...

This game absolutely has to have Mystic Gohan though.

That's definitely a Bleach ass power.
 
Is there some kind of technical limitation that prevents them to make more than one costume per character? Like, i guess there would be too much stuff to tweak (like lightning etc) to make everything look good, right?

Because they would make so much money just by costantly putting out new skins every month. I mean, almost every single character in the roster has like a dozen of historic, iconic and beloved outfits...

We know, that's why he sucks lol

Sounds like even less reason to read the manga. Anime Zamasu and Black are super entertaining.

Yup.

I like the Piccolo look more, but this is cool too, and more importantly, it isn't the ugly tracksuit.

To each his own i guess. Manga Zamasu was basically Light Yagami : DBZ version.

I never really took the Anime Zamasu seriously, even less so when they run up on Black and he's just magically this complete powerhouse of a villain with strange mannerisms for no adequately explained reason.

But most importantly to this specific discussion...his fused/zombie arm/merging with the universe (?????) forms were really, really stupid. I feel like his Manga incarnation would make a far better fighting game character, from appearance to moveset variety.

Yeah, they basically ahve to manually shade every frame of animation, so it would be a ton of work. Only 1 character in the entire Guilty Gear Xrd REV2 roster has a playable alternate costume.

A new costume for this game is almost as much effort as creating a new character, lots of drawing and animation involved, it's possible but the team is fairly small and all the details that go into each character is very time consuming.

Well like you said, to each their own.
 
Man, Gohan is only 17 in the Buu arc. That ain't no adult. He's in high school.

Anyway, I like the purple gi costume also.

Edit: Meh, I guess counting the year he spent in the Room of Spirit and Time he's 18. So maybe I am an idiot.

This is why I like manga Zamasu's fighting style better. His stuff in the anime is so gimmicky and clunky while his manga techniques can much more naturally compliment DBZ fighting and it's more fun to watch because of it.

That big thing appears in the anime and it just kinda slows down the fight and they try to punch through it, has a beam struggle with it and meh.

Edit: Not "it", but him while he has it up as he just kinda used it as a turret. Anyway it was flashy and unique but didn't make for that fun of an encounter imo.

Nah man.

Infinite Zamasu in the anime was unbeatable without Zeno. In the manga they could have sealed all of them away easily.
 
So, you guys think that they'll do the DBS characters as the final reveals or do you think it'll be Android 21 being playable?
