The Future of Dragon Ball

I was going to play Mega Man X5 tonight, but it's acting kind of buggy and I'm not in a mood to try to troubleshoot my copy of Legacy Collection 2, so I'll write about Dragon Ball instead. Specifically, what happens next?

Let me make this clear up front: I don't actually know the answer to this. I'm not an "insider" claiming to have "leaked" information. All I want to do is discuss the possibilities, and the culture of speculation that seems to persist in the fandom.

I tend to call this "modern" era of the Dragon Ball franchise a "renaissance", because very little official material came out between 1998 and 2012, and then after Battle of Gods ushered in this new wave of Dragon Ball movies, TV episodes, web series, and comics. I've been covering this all year in the #2023dbapocryphaliveblog, in case you're new to this blog, and while much of it hasn't been very good, there were a lot of bright spots. Battle of Gods, Broly, and Super Hero were classics, the Tournament of Power basically saved and otherwise lackluster Dragon Ball Super anime, and the Granolah Saga in the DBS manga is a fun read with a great cliffhanger.

However, things have slowed down a lot this year. The Granolah Saga ended and the manga began a long, long adaptation of the Super Hero film. There was some hype about a new Tenkaichi Budokai video game, but there's been no word on when it'll come out what we can expect to see. I get the sense that the fans are champing at the bit for some big announcement, like a new movie or anime series, but it hasn't happened.

Maybe I'm just old-fashioned, but back in my day you just had to wait and see, and accept the possibility that you may never get what you were hoping for. The vibe I get from DBTwitter is that people think they can somehow manifest a new animation through sheer force of will. News will spread of some Toei panel and fans will cling to the hope that there must be some big Dragon Ball announcement, and it must be nothing less than a teaser trailer for Xenoverse 3, a DBZ remake, and release dates for the next five movies. Then the panel will come and go, and it just ends up being a fluff PR thing where a spokesperson says "Dragon Ball is very fun and Goku is cool." and that's it. And all the fans get upset until the next panel, where they put their clown makeup on all over again.

"No, this can't be happening. Dragon Ball 2uper is real..."

When I was still new to the fandom, I always wondered how Dragon Ball AF could be such a potent fantasy for so long. But now I've lived through the Dragon Ball Super era, and seen fans chasing similar dreams. People have been waiting for Xenoverse 3 for over six years. They've been expecting "Dragon Ball Super II" ever since Dragon Ball Super I ended five years ago. And I'd say it's a pipe dream, except fans held out hope for Tenkaichi 4 since 2010, and it looks like we're actually going to get that one? You never can tell with this franchise. My kneejerk reaction to Dragon Ball Magic is to dismiss it as fake, but I can't be completely sure.

The weird thing is that 2uper, Magic, and XV3 have been hyped up during a boom period for the franchise. Dragon Ball Super had a 131 episode run, followed by two feature films. It's still going, but people want 2uper to animate the Moro Saga. People want a new web anime, but there's already a web anime. Super Dragon Ball Heroes has been running since 2018 and it's still going. Xenoverse 2 is still releasing DLC packs. I recognize that some of this content isn't what everyone wanted, but it's weird how fans are demanding new projects before the old ones have run their course. At least when AF became a legend, there weren't any official works to compete for its attention.

It occurs to me that maybe this is just part of the fan culture, and every so often fans will collectively agree on some imaginary premise and Goncharov their own series. Maybe that's what AF was then, and what Magic is today. They're not hoaxes, but rather some sort of mutually-agreed-upon daydream. I'm not sure I get it, but it is what it is.

Anyway, my position has always been that Dragon Ball has ended before and can end again, so there's no reason to assume that there will be some new anime or movie or video game to look forward to. I watched Super Hero fully believing that this could be the last one, even though the box office numbers suggest that a sequel is probably inevitable. But nothing is guaranteed. Dragon Ball GT started strong in the ratings, only to get canceled about a year later.

And yet, there seems to be some kind of guarantee, because of this guy:

I think there are a lot of fans who believe that Dragon Ball Super has a lot of loose ends to tidy up, and the series can't end until Goku and Vegeta surpass Jiren, Beerus, Whis, and Orange Piccolo. And maybe this is true, but I'm not so sure. But Black Frieza isn't just a loose end. This seems like a pretty big honkin' deal, and it would be pretty weak if they wrapped things up without some kind of reckoning here. Frieza's the main villain of Dragon Ball Super now, and in his most recent appearance he revealed he can defeat Goku and Vegeta with frightening ease. And yet, he spared them. Why?

So that seems like the obvious direction going into 2024. This is why fans are so burned out on the manga this year, because they know a Black Frieza arc is coming, but they have to wait for Toyotaro to retell Super Hero before we can even find out when it's happening.

My guess is that Toei/Shueisha decides to tease this out even longer. We get to chapter 100 of the manga and it starts some bullshit arc about Goten and Trunks playing superhero park rangers on 17's island. Or... that dumb android from the Moro Saga comes back and they jerk around with that guy for 18 chapters. They'll get to Black Frieza eventually, but I suspect that they're holding off until they can set up a Black Frieza movie. Then the manga can just adapt that movie and everything gets paid off around the same time.

Either way, I'm a little skeptical about it just being Goku and Vegeta training to beat Black Frieza. I keep coming back to how he let them live at the end of the Granolah arc. Ostensibly, he just wanted to frighten them, and make it clear that he no longer sees them as a threat. But maybe there's more to it than that. Maybe Frieza needs them alive for some reason. Like he plans to use them to achieve some goal, or he needs their help to stop some even greater menace that we haven't seen yet.

Maybe that's what Frieza was talking about at the end of the Broly movie when he said he wanted "one other". I kind of thought he meant to use Broly as an ally against Goku and Vegeta, but maybe he's planning a campaign against some other guy, and he sees Broly as a potential resource. And maybe that's why he spared Goku and Vegeta on Planet Cereal. If he kills them, he might not be able to find Broly when the time comes. Or maybe he just needs all three Saiyans, so he has to pull his punches.

Or maybe I'm overthinking this, and it just turns out that Black Frieza ends with a manga arc where Goku turns "Ultra Instinct (Defined) (Remastered)" and wins a paint-by-numbers battle. Or Roshi beats Black Frieza, because that sounds like something Toyotaro would do.

So what would happen after Black Frieza? See, that's where I wonder about the future of the franchise, because so much work has gone into mining past arcs. The first DBS movie was about bringing back Broly, Bardock, and Gogeta. The second movie brought back the Red Ribbon Army, the androids, and Cell. Frieza will almost certainly get another turn, and then what? What's left?

I mean, let's break this down by the major antagonists we've had so far.

Pilaf Saga. The Pilaf gang are still living in Bulma's house, apparently, so that comic relief bit from Battle of Gods shows no signs of ending.

Red Ribbon Army. DBS Super Hero brought them back and opened some interesting doors for future Red Ribbon stories. It's hard to imagine the Army making another comeback since Cell Max destroyed their secret base and all their top leaders were killed. But the Red Pharmaceutical Company still exists and someone must have taken over after Magenta's death.

Tien Shinhan. Tien never left, and while I'd be down for a Tien-centric saga, it seems pretty unlikely after all these years. At best, he gets a prominent role in a story featuring some more important player.

King Piccolo/Piccolo Junior. Piccolo never left either, and now he's got his own movie in Super Hero.

Saiyans Saga. Vegeta never left, and DBS: Broly pretty much covered the idea of "here are some new Saiyans we didn't know about before."

Frieza Saga. Resurrection F, Tournament of Power, DBS: Broly, this upcoming Black Frieza thing, I think this has been covered.

Androids/Cell Saga. 17 and 18 never left, and the idea of more androids and a new Cell was already covered in Super Hero.

Majin Buu. It's been 27 years and no one seems to want to do anything with this guy. Maybe 2025 is the year when Akira Toriyama finally does some big Buu story to justify keeping him around this whole time.

Zamasu. I mean, the dude got erased, so it'd be pretty bullshit to bring him back. Then again, it was pretty bullshit of Toriyama to create this idea in the first place, so I can't rule it out. "Whoops, more Zamasu" might be the storyline that would force me to quit the Dragon Ball fandom for good.

Tournament of Power. I mean, they could do another Tournament of Power for funsies, but it probably wouldn't live up to the spectacle or the novelty of the original. More likely, I could see some adventures featuring prominent characters from the event, like Jiren, Hit, the U6 Saiyans, etc.

Moro. I did not enjoy the Moro arc much at all, so it kind of bums me out when people suggest that Toei should do an anime adaptation of it. To me, that would be just as big a waste of time as the DBS manga doing the Super Hero adaptation that's going on right now, but it would be even worse because Moro kind of sucks. In the same vein, doing stories that follow up on the Moro arc would be difficult because you'd have to refer back to the Moro arc, which only appeared in the manga, which not everyone read. So it's this difficult spot where you'd have to animate the Moro arc first, just to do a new arc about Merus and Jaco or whatever. It's probably not worth it.

Other Z Movies and GT: The success of DBS: Broly sort of opens the door for similar reboots of guys like Cooler, Turles, Janemba, Baby, etc. But honestly, this seems pretty far-fetched to me. Broly was a much, much bigger star than any of those other characters, so what worked for Broly isn't necessarily a road map for a guy like Bojack or Omega Shenron.

Looking over all of this, I kind of wonder what's left to do. Maybe something with Majin Buu, or the big shots from the Tournament of Power, and after that, I think they'll have used up all the viable nostalgia. After that, Dragon Ball will probably have to come up with something brand new, which is kind of a dicey proposition, because they've been hit-or-miss with that. Granolah and Tournament of Power were good, Moro and Zamasu were bad, so when I hear they're doing something all-new, I get kind of nervous.

But in the end, I don't know what will happen, which brings us back around to where I started. We'll just have to see what shakes out.

[sevrai]

Sparking Zero looks equal parts cheap and gorgeous and it's my most-anticipated game right now aside from the next Monhun. As much as I wanted a XV3 to flesh out the character creation and polish the grindy gameplay I'm also ready for a Tenkaichi throwback that lets me play as Beerus.

Is it gonna live up to BT3 mechanically? Probably not! Am I going to invest hundreds of hours cranking shitty metal music and coming up with private fanfics like I did with Raging Blast 1 and 2 back on PS3? You bet your ass I am.

On DB Daima

IDK how I'm gonna feel about this... ??? I'll remain positive.

But on the other hand; A lot of folks forget that Dragon Ball is a shounen anime so it's good refreshener to remind people that DB isn't as edgy as some they want it to be IMO.

Though, I do fear that fandom people are gonna be weird & fetishize this. :( Though not being on X really helps/prevent me from seeing the crazy amount of l.olicon/s.hotacon...

. . . On Xenoverse 2

Hooo boy... I care so little about it lately. Like I LOVE Fu and I genuinely ENJOYED playing it. I think they should move on to XV3 or make a new continuation or move on to a DBO spinoff.

The graphics are so UGLY and outdated. Sorry. I can't even play it without mods so I'm like really indifferent on DBXV2.

I want a new game with CaC that is just... not so outddated with graphics (and weird sexism... Maybe I want my women to be fucking GIGANTIC and buff or fat... or maybe I want my men to be smol and skinny and not muscular... really lame and outdated. But that's just IMO.)

Flightline: 61 - Tiltrotors

Early Experiments.

Almost before the first flight of a heavier-than-aircraft, research has looked into combining the vertical takeoff and landing abilities of a helicopter with the long range and high speed of an airplane. One of the concepts identified was the tiltrotor, in which the the propellers, either connected with shaft to the engines or mounted as a unit in nacelles, are able to be tilted through 90°, allowing them to function as helicopter blades for vertical flight and as propellers for horizontal. Brothers Henri and Armand Dufaux began work in 1902, with a patent being awarded in 1904. George Lehberger patented the first recognizably modern tiltrotor in May of 1930, though it was never built. Prior to WW2, the Weserflug company designed their P.1003/1, which would have been a hybrid of tiltrotor and tiltwing designs. A Daimler-Benz DB600 piston engine was to be mounted in the fuselage, and linkages would transfer power to the wingtip-mounted propellers. the wings were split approximately half-way along the span, and they would tilt along with the nacelles holding the propellers. The P.1003 was never built, though it did establish some concepts for future tiltrotors and tiltwings.

Concurrently, Heinrich Focke designed the Focke-Achgelis Fa.269 went in a different direction, with the rotors facing downwards for VTOL and swiveling backwards 80° for horizontal flight. Focke carried out extensive wind tunnel tests, along with bench tests of the gearboxes and pivoting mechanisms, but the design did not advance beyond a full-scale wooden mockup before Allied bombing ended work.

Post-war: Trancendental Aircraft.

After WW2, two former employees of Kellet Aircraft formed Transcendental Aircraft Company to work on a tiltrotor design of their own. The Model 1-G was powered by a Lycoming O-290-A flat-four engine which drove two 3-bladed rotors, controlled by a cyclic and collective. Despite heavy damage caused by the rotor blades shattering on a test rig in 1951, funding from the USAF allowed Transcendental to complete the Model 1-G in 1954, and the plane took its first tethered flight on 15 June, with an untethered flight occurring on 6 July. Flight testing continued until a control failure led to a crash on 20 July 1955, injuring the pilot but destroying the 1-G. The tiltrotor completed 23 hours of flight time, and although it did not completely transition from vertical to horizontal flight, tilt angles of up to 75° were explored, with up to 90% of the plane’s lift being provided by the wings, making it the first functional tiltrotor.

The success of the Model 1-G allowed Transcendental to refine the design into the Model 2, which flew in 1956. The Model 2 was powered by a Lycoming O-435-23 six-cylinder, and the enclosed cockpit could accommodate two. USAF funding dried up however, with the government becoming more interested in the Bell XV-3. The Model 2 was abandoned, and Transcendental was sold to Republic.

Bell XV-3

The result of a joint program between the USAF and US Army, the Bell XV-3 was the first successful tiltrotor design, and the ultimate ancestor of the V-22 Osprey. Powered by a Pratt & Whitney R-985-AN-1 Wasp Junior piston engine in the fuselage, the XV-3 was fitted with two 3-bladed props during initial testing, but the second example flew with two-bladed props. The first XV-3 was damaged beyond repair during a test flight in 1956 when extreme vibrations caused the pilot to black out. After extensively redesigning and reinforcing the second XV-3 (serial number 54-148), the type restarted test flights in 1958, though vibrations and instability continued to plague the design. As a result of wind tunnel testing, the rotor diameter was reduced and the wing structure was stiffened again. Tests resumed once more, and the XV-3 achieved a full transition from vertical to horizontal flight on 18 December 1958.

Flights continued until 1962, after which the XV-3 was subjected to a series of wind tunnel tests with the aim of eliminating a dangerous condition known as pylon whirl, which had led to severe vibration and instabilities throughout the program. These tests ended in April of 1966, when both rotors failed, damaging both the XV-3 and the 40x80 wind tunnel at NASA Ames. The damaged XV-3 was found at AMARG in 1984, and under the leadership of former Bell XV-3 engineer Claude Leibensberger the tiltrotor was partially repaired and placed in storage. In 2005 Bell employees began a two year restoration of 54-148, after which it was transferred to the USAF Museum in Dayton, where it has been on display in the R&D Gallery since 2011.

Bell XV-15

In 1972, NASA awarded a contract to Bell Helicopter for what would become the XV-15. The XV-15 was designed to simplify the conversion process and improve performance, and as such it was powered by two Textron Lycoming LTC1K-4K turboshafts in nacelles mounted at the ends of the wings. This eliminated the complex gearing and shafts linking the propellers to the engine as seen in earlier types, though a cross-linking shaft was included in case of an engine failure. The XV-15 also took advantage of improvements in avionics and materials, further improving the transition from vertical to horizontal flight. Flight testing of the XV-15s commenced in 1977, with one being displayed at the 1981 Paris Air Show.

N702NA was later damaged beyond repair on 20 August 1992 when a bolt slipped out of the collective control system on one pylon, causing that rotor to go to full pitch. The aircraft rolled uncontrollably and impacted upside-down, injuring both crew. The XV-15 was deemed uneconomical to repair, but the cockpit was salvaged and used as a simulator. The second XV-15, N703NA, was used in NASA test flights until 2003, after which it was placed on display at the Smithsonian National Air & Space Museum’s Steven F. Udvar-Hazy Center at Washington Dulles International Airport. The data generated by the XV-15 program led to the Bell/Boeing V-22 and Bell/Augusta BA609.

As much as I'm enjoying replaying DBXV2, I think it's time they just do XV3 already. There's only so much DLC you can add to a game my man

Here's what I'd want

1. Stop rehashing Z, we know the entire god damn plot of Z by now. You know what has hardly ever been touched? OG DB. For that matter, the Black Star DB saga in GT. The Other World Tournament arc in Z isn't even touched and its one of the better fillers. Hirudigarn, Bojack, Legacy of Goku, the DB retelling movies, man there's Super Dragon Ball Heroes with more interesting shit than anything Super has put out. For that matter, a true Tournament of Power arc with all or most of the contestants. Hell, why not an ORIGINAL plot that doesn't rely so much on rehashing? Fu decided to help Dr Gero and Dr Wheelo send Cell and Frieza back before Goku met Bulma. Raditz and Nappa decide to join the Z fighters, the Ginyu Force JOINS THE TIME PATROL, idk man something new. Like, is the SKoT the only SKoT or are there other SKoTs for other Universes?

That would make an interesting and fresh plot point. Having to help correct histories in OTHER universes with new stories for each.

2. More and enhanced transformations. I wanna embrace my ultimate dad bod by becoming Super Sayain 4. I want there to be a Super Sayain equivalent for Namekians without turning them giant. Majins get a better Super than just Kid Buu. And also better hair transformations.

3. Better customizations that has more body types for everyone and better fits. I want male Majins to be able to be like Super Buu, roided out Saiyans that are like 8 feet tall like Broly or Kale, shrimpy lads like Cabba, sliders for body parts, etc. Also better fits on clothes with adjustments maybe? And extra stuff like Code Vein to add abs resize. Plus letting us mix and match under and overcoats or capes, recolor everything to our liking, etc

4. More Characters that are overlooked. Yajirobi cut off Vegeta's tail, not Krillen. Why do we have Kefla but not Caulifla or Kale? The GT aliens during the BS arc, the Tuffle Androids from SDBH, Roshi, Chiaotzu, the wolf guys from Super, there's a ton to tap into without rehashing forms and shit

5. Fighting styles. I want to use swords like Trunks and Tapion, let me.

6. No more TP bullshit, just put everything in the in game store and let me buy things in game without using real money and without an internet connection, updated now and then obviously

7. Way more customization for Mentors. Why can I recolor Vegeta's armor but not his skin suit? Is it literally his skin? I can recolor Goku's gi almost entirely. Also, I'd like at least their other outfits as options rather than just 1 I can recolor or 1 special one. I would like to mix and match too or just replace their equipment, but that might be asking much.

8. More races. Beast people are a thing throughout the entire series. Kais, androids, off worlders, DB Fusions actually did this pretty good with a catch all race. Also, custom transformations for it would be nice.

9. Better lighting. Seriously my eyes hurt looking at the character creator screen and things get so saturated

10. Better audio mixing. People who have played the game need no explanation

11. This will never happen, but I want small crossovers, even if it's just costumes. Dragon QUEST would actually do very well since Toriyama did its art as well, and the two art styles would mesh very well. Plus Chrono Trigger, which I feel would mesh with the Time Patrol plot very, very well.

12. Please. Please stop. Letting. Goku. Hog. The. Glory. At least with XV 1 we could beat the final boss before he showed up. In XV3, I want it to be you and the other two time patrollers that came before you. That's it. No Goku. Maybe Vegeta for a change, or Trunks, but no Goku.

I don't look to see it happening any time soon given XV2 is still being milked dry, but a lot of my quieter interests have been getting news recently so uh. You know. Manifesting it.
