Salagir's Twitch Reference Thread

Maybe it's the beards but their older then I thought they would be.

I'll put forward my question:

Are you associated with youtube channel 'DBM animated' and if so, how did it come about? 

- When you come up with new characters (U16 Bra, Gast, etc) what is your thought process behind them?

- About how far though the main story would you say we are?



So if you put his head and body near each other but stop them from coming into contact, have you safely locked him down? Or does he regenerate more traditionally after that?

Good to know about kakarots immortality. So I guess vegeta will have to be a bit more careful with kakarot, seeing as he's ssj2 now.

While he still has the advantage with ssj3, he can't just sit around as a ssj3 like how kakarot can be ssj2 whenever he wants.

Another question I'd like to ask Salagir, based on something I just realized while reading someone's comment in the main page

- You said that SSJ Bra is comparable to Base Vegetto, and that SSJ2 is a x10 boost. However, you also said that SSJ2 Bra is stronger than SSJ Vegetto. How is that possible? How is Bra getting x10 stronger superior to Vegetto getting x50 stronger, when they both start at the same point?

While we're on this topic, how does Adult Gotenks factor into all this? Could he also not help contain Bra as well?

I forgot to add the 2 more questions . 2 months ago,  I asked Salagir two questions on Instagram. Back then I thought that these two questions weren't very important, so I didn't made a thread for them. But since I made this, I figure I will just add them now.

Link to the video

(Salagir only showed up in the last 11 minutes (1:00:36 min))



1. U17 special Bojack vs. Cell?

Salagir: No, there won't be, I don't think it will be very interesting. But if someone got a very good idea there will be, sure. (1:07:37 min)


2. U20 Broly vs. Z-Fighters part 3?

Salagir: U20 special, the third part is finished. You're gonna see it very soon. very soon you know in Frieza's minutes you know? XD When I say 5 minutes I mean somewhere in 2021. But at last it's done. (1:08:50 min)

Hi,

I'm French, i just wanted to add some interresting things that where said in french on twitch (not reguarding Bra though).

Questions for Salagir

Special Chapters :
One is ready (44 pages). Dsp27 is finishing one (10 pages). Arcady is working on a new one.
The long one that has been made during 3-4 years will be the next special chapter (no info on the content/universe) and is said to be beautiful.

The End of DBM (SPOILERS) :

Baddack visions :
Concerning Baddack visions that have not happened yet, Salagir is not really fond anymore of what happen in those visions when we'll get to it, but he will stay true to them, we will see the exact same thing.

Does Salagir want to change/alter the script that has already been published ?
Yes, he has a full list that he will never reveal of things he wants to change, but that will not happen, he will never change already published pages from dbm.
But it concerns only minor choices, he still likes/agrees with the major plots.
he says at the beginning : "Every writter that reads his own work hates it, especially ten years later".

Power chart :
Salagir has a power chart where there is all power lvls of every character (his idea of power lvl), no bother to ask him, he will never reveal it (Asura saw it x)).

U19 Heloïtes :
Afterall, Salagir thinks they should have not created this universe (with Universe 2 also), all non-DB characters in fact. He thinks that they had enough characters to start with. Even if now he admits it's a good thing to have them around (he like the result), he still believes they could have done DBM without them.
Asura strongly disagrees about U19 because they added a third kind of power (Technology) where before it was always Ki versus Ki or Ki versus Magic in Dragon Ball.

I'K'L
It was just a joke and a reference to Yū Yū Hakusho, a manga where the same thing happens (a character registers his unborn son to a tournament).

Are there discussions or conflict about the main script ?
Yes, Ouv is the biggest opponent and Asura also gives his opinion. Salagir admitted that he changed the script following other's suggestions from time to time. Either because it was a strict error regarding Dragon Ball or DBM, either because it was a better reaction from a character, etc.
Arcady (who joined later) said that Salagir is a very good listener but it is not a democracy, Salagir will strictly follow what he thinks of DBM. Arcady gives an example about the Gast chapter: Arcady wanted to draw a very strong punch from Gast, but it looked like a dirty move and was too brutal. Salagir wants 'good" characters not to do "brutal/dirty" moves because it is also read by children, he has no problem to do "brutal" things when it is done by "evil" characters (Pan's death or Majin Son Bra).

Questions for Asura :

Whats keeps you motivated ?
Drugs! Alcohol! (laugh) Passion, when you spend all your time drawing with passion, you are most of the time motivated with some up and down ofc.

What is your ideal combat you want to draw ?
Already happened with his two favorite characters (Son Bra and King Cold), he really loved drawing this fight.
He would really love to draw a very tough fight between Pan u18 and any strong character.

What do you regret on what you have drawn ?
The Mini-cell versus U9 fight, he didn't make it enough clear that mini-cell was ofc stronger than them but got too much harassment from all U9 at the same time.

EDIT : Added/corrected some answers.

It is Arctyka who answered you, the person that does the U4 Buu novel.

I'll try to translate what Salagir says about him because it is interresting.


"Radditz is not very interresting from the start, he is the saiyan prototype : he comes, he's evil, he can punch his own brother... That's why i say saiyan are bastards/assholes, because people tell me that i only base my opinion [on saiyans] from Vegeta and that's not true. i base my opinion from Radditz, Vegeta and a little Nappa (we don't see him that much). Radditz insists on the the fact that is it normal for Saiyans to be like that. That's why saiyans are bastards/asshole (in DBM). So radditz gives us the archetype of the saiyan, violent, brutal, etc. And it is a special chapter drawer (that in the end never draw for DBM) who told me 'i'm fan of Radditz, do something with him'. I told him 'I can't, he sux'. So it is because of this suggestion that i made Radditz the brain of the group.
Because he uses his brain, he will realize that he holds a grudge against his father, saiyans don't go the shrink when they're upset at their parents. And he also cares about his brother whereas saiyans don't care about anything. He cares about his brother because every other saiyan judge Radditz by his power level. Kakarot is the first to judge him differently, because he's his brother who came to earth to rescue Kakarot when he was all alone.
That's why when Radditz says 'I can't kill my brother', it has a double meaning. Because he's immortal and because he cares about his brother."

All of that seems to me, that Salagir is writing a story, that has no clear purpose and is a mixture of pure entertainment and deliverance of own world views. But that's fine to me. I don't think, I would read a comic that is purely about real world morales. On the other hand, I like the approach on a manga, that originally didn't have any morale thinking at all and was very black and white. And over such a long time things will change and have to be sort of retconned. The quote, that every writer hates his own work after ten years, really hit close to home, since I too have written many things that I did over again and again. But I have the luxury, that I can do that as often as I want, which Salagir can't.
