Translator Present at Paris Manga

Shoot, this is hard. Okay, let's see...

1. How did you come up with the ways Buu helped the fighters? (Frieza's mind-power, Kakarot's tail, etc.) I especially want to learn about how you came up with the new abilities of fusion, like the new dance.

2. What are some of your favorite fights in DBM? And he'd probably say "Vegito vs. Broly" or something, which is so obvious that I want to know what are his favorites other than that.

3. Some characters of DBM are very original, even if they've been based off of someone else. How did you come up with the Heliorites, and what their abilities were (energy blade, gravity, carbonite)? Also, what led you to pick Raichi? He's one of my favorite DBM characters, but he's very different from his Plan to Eradicate the Saiyans version, in personality and powers. What led you to pick him and put him in the tournament, and how did you come up with his tweaked abilities?

4. Are there any hints you might want to give us about what we can expect in the 4th round?

5. Most DBZ doujinishi usually go for very intimidating looking-main villains, with lots of hair/spikes/ridiculous power levels. Although we know there's a big monster in XXI's room, so far all we've seen of XXI himself is a frail old wizard. Why did you decide to have a bad guy so different from every other fanfic?

6. I second what Android 13 said: Toei has recently come up with a lot of ideas similar to Multiverse: a tournament between universes, and a villain that, in many ways, is like Bra:
(sorry for posting this again, everyone.)
What are your thoughts about this?

7. How did you decide what happens in each alternate universe, like how in U13 Kakarot and Raditz fought at Helior?

8. Just how far ahead have you written the story, and in what amount of detail? Has all the dialogue for every chapter been written out already, and it's just waiting for Asura to illustrate it? Or do you have a general plan/outline for each fight, but the specifics get filled in as the chapter draws closer?

Of course, the question I most want to ask him is "What have your thoughts been over the past few months as the entire comment section rages about the Bra vs. Cold fight, especially when you know how it's going to end?" but I don't think he'd appreciate that.

Edit so I don't take up all the posting space. Lol. Also my questions will be in quotations as I have side notes not meant to be part of the question for Salagir or Asura.

For Salagir

1. "If you could have included another universe, what would have been your next choice and what was its reason for divergence?"

2. "There are other match-ups some fans would like to see, such as U9 Krillin Vs U13 Kakarot. If you were to grant their wish, would such fights be in the form of a mini-comic or is there a possibility of another Multiverse Tournament? (if so, we would all be in your debt!)"

And no, I'm not favoring U13 Kakarot vs anyone matches, it's just the first contrast I could think of.

For Asura so he doesn't get left out

1. "What went in your mind hearing you had to draw Cold's 6th form and how much time/hardships did you have to spend on it compared to the normal characters and their fights?"

But if this question was already answered somewhere in the comment section (that I can't find -_-) then there's no need to ask Asura again.





Second edit:
caihlem
I don't know if this will be an incredible idea or one that backfires. Can I/you copy your first post onto the comment section so that people who don't have a forum account but have a legitimate question could ask one?

Alright! I'll try. I hoppe all questions are allowed.

1. I have great interest in Zen Buu from U4 and how did he manage to get from barely above Buuhan level, to being even stronger than Vegetto SSJ2. A few answers were given on his special but... Will we ever see more specials on him and his adventures on space? I hope we do!

2. Will every universe timeline be finished in specials, even after main DBM history is over? Histories like those of U9, U13 and especially U3 will take a lot of specials to completely cover. Can we hope to see them in their full version someday, even if it's on 2025? We already know Ouv plans to finish the entire U13, but what about the rest?

3. What about Cell? I'm pretty sure lots of people are expecting to see more of his story, as his original special was quite lackluster and mostly corrected a few continuity errors during the saga, rather than telling Cell's after history.

Here is my list of questions.

For Salagir:

1. When will the U16 novelization be continued? I know you stopped it to help keep some secrets from being exposed too early, but I think now will be a perfect time to continue it with everything that has happened so far.

2. When will the official DBM novel continue again? I cannot wait to read King Cold vs Bardock or Vegeta vs Raichi in novel form, since me and many others love those fights to death.

3. Are their any plans to make any more U3 specials that continues Bardock's story, Raichi's revenge, and King Piccolo's reign on Earth? King Piccolo's will definitely be awesome to read to see how he defeated Earth warriors, wishes for eternal youth, and absorbing Kami!

4. Will there be any more specials dealing with U4 Buu and U17 Cell after they defeated the Z-Fighters and ventured throughout Space to become even stronger.

5. How many pages to you envision there will be until DBM officially ends?

6. Is it possible that you can link back up with Gogeta Jr and have him make us a cool special or even a official chapter, just like the good old days? XD

7. Are there any plans for a potential "DBM 2", or perhaps endorsing a group of dedicated fanfic writers to create a official followup once the original DBM ends?

8. Will Bojack's entire history be revealed in specials such as him being defeated by the kai's and locked inside of a star, his childhood, etc?

9. Will Picardi do anymore Gast Specials in the future? I love his Star Wars-like drawings incorporated into DBM!

10. If you could restart DBM, what would you change?

11. How hard was it initially to get DBM started during it's beginning stages (finding artists, creating the website, dedicating your time, etc)?

12. When will we get a Universe 11 Special?

13. Why didn't you have Majin Vegeta or a potential Majin Piccolo incorporated into Universe 11 during the tournament? Such characters would have been amazing to diverge the fates of our favorite badasses even more?

14. When will the final Broly specials be released since I find them long overdue now? Plus will they be drawn by Albertocubatas like the first two?

For Asura:

1. What got you into DBM and becoming the official drawer once Gogeta Jr left?

2. What inspired you to draw to become the amazing artist you are today?

3. What is your favorite and least favorite character to draw in DBM.

4. Do you plan to draw Bra naked just like Queen Hanasia in the novels lol? XD

5. How long does it take to draw one page and sending it to Salagir for him to upload?

6. What is the hardest thing for you to draw in DBM?

1. What is your favorite fight for each round?

2. The tournament setting means some fights just won't happen. Did you have any dream fights in particular that won't be made due to the brackets?

3. Would you have felt the need to make this comic if dragon ball super came instead of GT

And that's all I got

Funnily enough I just found out the Salagir account is legit Salagir and if you look at his like 3 posts he does detail some thing regarding specials and stuff. Just an fyi.

I know just pointing it out to somewhat trim the fat on some questions being asked is all lol

... And cut 😁

I've got everyone's questions, minus one double (favorite match outside Vegito v Broly). Will try get Salagir to answers some of these on video.
Genghis, I got yours too

Hey guys, finally back from Paris.

So, the interview is in the can. Salagir actually accepted to answer in English, which is not his native language, which was cool of hi. I just need to retrieve it and brush it up here and there. We'll probably post it on the DBM Youtube account, but as soon as it's ready I'll link it here.
