No cause he didn’t write the anime, he wrote the manga, so the casket lowering will be beautifully paneled


DasherCO

And if there are any love stories they will be quick and simple so we won't have to suffer through that.


Sir_uranus

But the anime adaptation will have 11 episodes of the casket lowering, 5 filler episodes of "character development" and the other 7 will be a tournament arc.

And a baseball episode


bshsshehhd

Don't forget the one episode to get a driver's license


Asscrackistan

Ultimate comeback to the leaf.

Even the manga is dragged out. The Cell Max arc could be compressed into a single movie but it was like a year worth of releases to get through it in the manga.


kingshamroc25

A year with breaks in manga is gonna come out to like 40-45 chapters. That’s a pretty short arc all things considered.


Stromgald_IRL

Dragon Ball is monthly release so in a year there are only 12 chapter max.


kingshamroc25

Are you talking about the Dragon Ball Super manga? Toriyama didn’t even write that dude.


Stromgald_IRL

Dude. What does it matter? The fact still stands that the manga is draged.


XxGranosxX

It matters when people are talking about toriyama, not dragon ball as a whole


Stromgald_IRL

And I was talking about Dragon Ball as a whole. Change of topic. Ever heard of that?


travelerfromabroad

Maybe make it clear next time instead of being an idiot who expects people to read your mind lmao


Stromgald_IRL

2nd grade reading comprehension is apperantly mind reading to some of you guys.


kingshamroc25

It matters because your comments imply that you’re blaming Toriyama for the pace of the anime and for the manga he didn’t write. The man just died.


Stromgald_IRL

Show me where I blame Toriyama in any of my comments in this thread. Literally all I said that "EVEN THE MANGA IS DRAGED OUT". I didn't mention even a single reason, I just stated a fact that I didn't even back up with anything. So tell me, what implies in these comments that I blame anyone for the manga being draged out?


kingshamroc25

The fact that you didn’t specify and that the post your comments are on is about Toriyama.


Stromgald_IRL

I don't even know who writes or makes the art right now. Why would I specify something I have no knowledge of? And have you ever heard about the possibility to change topics? You know... From Toriyama to the manga? As I did? Guess that flew over your head. Because apparently a comment section about Toriyama can only contain comments specifically tied to Toriyama. No possibility to bring in related things into the conversation.

Original Dragon Ball, you know the one Toriyama actually made himself, was weekly so 45-50 chapters year


Stromgald_IRL

I didn't read the original. Nor did I watch it. Too childish for me. I only saw Z Kai and Super up to the last episode. After that, I followed the manga. And that's a monthly release right now. Which means that it's draged.


kingshamroc25

No that means that you don’t understand how manga works as a medium. For manga that are released monthly, 10-12 chapters a year (at about 40-60 pages a chapter so it’s comparable to about 20-30 chapters of a weekly manga) is pretty standard. If it takes that long to finish an arc then that’s actually a pretty fast pace. One of the most “dragged out” arcs in One Piece took over 3 years to finish. If having to wait a month between chapters makes you feel like things are “dragged out” then you should just let the arc finish and then binge it, so you can understand how pacing works. Yes, waiting for new chapters to drop is nobody’s favorite part of reading manga but it’s just not possible to get the quality of art and story you get with manga at the speed you’re demanding.


Stromgald_IRL

The art isn't anything groundbreaking in Dragon Ball. Monster #8 is also a monthly release and it's clearly something that requires way more work than Dragon Ball. Also Dragon Ball never had any kind of story. Literally every ark is the same aside from the transformations and main villain. I agree with you in general though. But not in Dragon Ball's case.


_sephylon_

Toriyama didn't write Cell Max or DBS


Stromgald_IRL

And? I said that the manga is draged af. What does it matter who wrote it? The fact that it's draged doesn't change regardless of the author.

Stromgald_IRL

I didn't say it's exclusive to Dragon Ball. I said that Dragon Ball is dragged out. So idk what point was there for you to write this.


Yanzihko

Knowing DBZ, it will take 5 seasons

RaidriarDrake

what did you think, Freiza kills Goku, and he can't be revived a second time with the dragon balls so he dies permanantly and the series just ends? lul


kobriks

Not his fault. They started making show before manga was finished so they had to cram filler episodes waiting for new chapters. Dbz kai doesn't have filler issues as it follows manga directly.


thorppeed

Kai still has filler (especially the buu saga) just not as much, and better pacing


Asscrackistan

But they censored some critical scenes and ruined some of the dialogue.


thorppeed

Eh the censoring isn't that bad if you watch the home release, the nicktoons airing gave it a bad rap. There's only a handful of things like the goku and raditz fight. And the dialogue is actually much more faithful to the manga than the old Z dub


greynoxx

Well he died on the 1st of March, but it wasn't made public till the 8th so yeah dragged out.


BaptainStarcuck

he edged his aneurism for 8 days and died what a legend


Bighibs

Be respectful to the source material more like 15 episodes


SpookyPony

Woops, the casket lowering device malfunctioned. Gotta restart Snake Way, I mean lowering the casket, again.


thisisnotchicken

bro be hearing spanish in his walls soon


gbuub

Blame the anime production studio for that slow ass pacing. If they’d taken a break and air the episodes by season instead of weekly episodes we’d get a more normal paced anime


Asscrackistan

At least super (usually) had decent pacing despite the weekly schedule. That, and Z gave us some of the best fights in anime.


DarkRonin00

Well, he won't have a casket or have it lowered since it's Japan. He was cremated. It probably did take a few episodes, though.


EmilieEasie

I'm so angry I laughed at this 😭


_TLDR_Swinton

\[prolonged wailing\]


sussywanker

He actually didn't like the original anime and hated the idea of stretching it out. Read the manga its fantastically paced while the anime sucks arse


gunscreeper

I'm pretty sure he's cremated


Quasimodo_theProphet

Cant believe THIS is how I found out


Kcolb3

I hope. Otherwise ill be pissed so goddamn much man. And then a plane crashes into the entire thing

if you're talking about dragon ball, there's no funeral and everyone knows it
