Karoly Dragon Ball Fusions

The fusion of Goku and Broly from dragon ball fusions. I have not actually played dragon ball fusions but I liked the idea of drawing more fusions soooo...

kefla is literally the anti-broly despite literally being one of the strongest characters in all of dbs geeks on forums will doubt her abilities at length and insist that base vegito could beat her. were any of you there when kale by herself was so strong that jiren considered her a threat he needed to take care of and goku couldn't do shit to her berserk form as ssb? just kale, no potara fusion, just kale by herself

That moment when you're writing with a Broly RPer who has many LSSJ icons, then you look at your meager folder of NINE.

playing xenoverse 2, i kinda wish they varied and deepened the customization options for the races. like, there wasn’t a lot of customization options available, and i wish they added options for like, if your saiyans had tails or not, fangs, and muscle / body options.

you can get a tail decoration but it’s from the TP medal shop, and not a primary customization option for your race.

Sorry about that LOL, when I google ‘Lssj Broly’ there are like so many different versions of the same character and I do not know enough about these buff dbz bitches to tell who’s who in the zoo U_U

i feel like “buff” whis looking like that but still having his twinky ass legs emphasizes my point on how comedic the proportions of the lssj sprites are

Conversations

This is kinda more of a one off post, but I wanted to do somethin' like writing up a couple scenarios and what kind of dialogue I'd imagine happening in them. Nothing too major, just a spur of the moment kind of thought process.

Scenario 1 - "Roles"

(Dialogue between Tempo and Amara about their dynamic. Tempo is a character belonging to @inkyblott)

Tempo: "Hey, so I was wondering... What exactly would you say our dynamic is?"

Amara: "Dynamic?"

Tempo: "Yeah like what're our roles. Our positions. You know, functions?"

Amara: "As far as I'm aware, we're best friends."

Tempo: "Okay but like aside from that."

Amara: "We're best friends."

Tempo: "I was thinking like I'm always the goofy one and you're the big scary looking straight-woman that keeps me grounded. You kinda got this big stick up your butt."

Amara: (sounding a cross between incredulous and offended) "Tempo, we're best friends. Take it or leave it."

Tempo: (realizing her mistake) "Okay, no worries! No worries!"

Scenario 2 - "A Horrible Idea"

(The following dialogue is between two gods, one of them having a very peculiar idea)

God 2: "Okay so all I'm saying is that we gather up every single one of those legendary super saiyans, put 'em in the same area and have 'em battle it out to see which one is deserving of the title."

God 1: "Do you know how terrible that idea is?"

God 2: "Don't you mean how Awesome that idea is? Just think about it. It'll be like one big green battle royale! The last one standing is the real legend!"

God 1: "You Do realize that there are a lot of universes and thus a lot of them right?"

God 2: "Yeah?"

God 1: "You also do realize that each one is capable of destroying a planet at minimum, yes?"

God 2: "Sounds pretty fun yeah."

God 1: "Think about what would happen if you pit... oh i don't know, one hundred of them against each other in a battle royale."

God 2: "...I see the problem."

(They did not see the problem and still wanted to go through with it.)

Doodled a friend's redesign of LSSJ Kale since it itched my brain good.

You do so right by z Broly, you understand his potential. Your au with him and Trunks is a delight

Glad we all appreciate my blatant misrepresentation of the character 😌 im partly joking but man fr, 12 year old me would hate that instead of him bein a badass edgy monster, I draw him as.. *checks notes* .. an immature loser with bad coping mechanisms uwu

Ok but in true ask tradition! :U im hijacking this ask to talk about a dumb theory thats been rolling around in my head for like 2 years now: android 16 and broly similarities:

Ok so. If you aren't aware. The android arc of dragon ball was originally going to focus on the androids 19 & 20 and trunks even names them specifically

But Toriyamas former editor, Kazuhiko Torishima, didn't like them as the main antagonists and so Toriyama changed it to focus on 17 & 18 as the bad guys and introduced 16 as a sort of mystery

Now. This gets almost completely dropped once that same former editor ALSO doesn't like these androids and cell becomes the main villian for the arc (yeah yeah, the bomb thing is technically *there*, but its so inconsequential most people forget its even a thing :T )

So. Idk exactly when movie 8 went into production, but we know Brolys LSSJ form was inspired by trunks SSJ grade3 form that appears several chapters after cell has been introduced and the androids have become power-up fodder, so im gonna argue its safe to say the decision to move away from their story had been made

(side tangent that I find absolutely hilarious btw- despite gokus commentary in the HTC, SSJ grade 3 was the strongest form of ssj we saw at this point, so its pretty appropriate to use it as the basis of the strongest scariest ssj form.... rrriiiiiiiiggght up until toriyama introduced SSJ2 on Feb 2, 1993- near exactly 1 month before the first Broly movie hit theaters. Completely undermined what, up til then, looked like a trend in stronger form = bigger and beefier right as the big beefy strongest guy ever movie came out 🤣 absolutely love it!)

So anyways. The movies overall also tend to have varying degrees of similarities with recent arcs in the show and Toriyama, while not overly involved, would give the studio designs and story notes. And. Idk. Yall can tell me im reaching if ya want, but: A guy who's made into a weapon by his father who's on a quest for revenge and has this conflicting view of his son as both someone he feels he failed to protect, someone he cares about, but also as a tool for that revenge, and someone who's destructive power hes become deeply afraid of.. now where have we seen somethin like that 🤔 may be an extra reach but I also think its neat that despite their different face shape, Toriyamas gave em the same expression

Lol they're also both just ridiculously tall bastards. Like for no gd reason. And yeah, to me atleast, it explains why hating goku specifically gets shoehorned into brolys backstory (listen I can absolutely do the mental gymnastics to make it make sense! I'm fine with it! Its fine! I actually like it! ... but it IS a dumb shoehorned plot point! Both things can be true D:< ) look just lookit these tall ass shits

Anyway. My last note is just this statement from Toriyama about 16 and Gero. The way gero is presented is really in line with how I see Paragus as this tragic failure of a father- honestly caring about his kid, but letting grief and revenge drive him into conflicting corners where he wants revenge FOR the life denied his son, but also actively shaping his son into such a terrifying weapon that ultimately hed rather his kid just never be conscious cause thats the 'only way to keep them safe'

“Dr. Gero’s son who died young a long time ago served as the visual model for Android 16. He was a high-ranking soldier for the Red Ribbon Army but was shot down by the enemy. Dr. Gero reserved special feelings for 16 as “his son,” and although he equipped 16 with immense power and a frightening destructive device, he didn’t want to see him be defeated on the battlefield and thus programmed him to have a gentle personality. 16 was consequently considered a failed creation.” The smaller caption below Toriyama’s quote reads: “Was the reason Dr. Gero didn’t want to activate 16 perhaps because of his parental love to not see him destroyed?”
