Jump Festa Dragonball Report
Jump Festa has begun and we have a few goodies for everyone. They first presented a costume display showing Goku’s gi and Bulma’s outfit. Along with that, they showed off the motorcycle Bulma uses in the film. Watch the video via this link to the Jump Festa site.
A few others Dragonball related aspects include a few contests (like a chance to win an autographed poster from Justin Chatwin and Emmy Rossum).
Also, talk about the following Dragonball Evolution ad has inspired rumor that Akira Toriyama (Dragonball manga novel author) is also an executive producer for the live action film along with Tim Van Rellim. Please note that this is only rumor, but if true then hopefully we will truly see more of Dragonball’s ‘magic’ within Dragonball Evolution.
Stay tuned for further updates coming from this event.
UPDATE
(23:20 EST) Dragon Ball Stage started. If he does it like the Luffy/Goku Talk, he’ll take meticulous notes and get them down on the board himself in the near future it seems. I haven’t heard a word of specifics about the last one.
Greg: “Bulma’s Bike is here evidently. This looks bad; they pulled out Akiba Idols to promote Nozawa. What were they thinking?”
(23:33 EST) Greg: “So far I am severely unimpressed. We’re listening to airheads talk about some very basic stuff.”
“Finally some interesting information coming out. Nozawa thinks Cell is the most frightening villian.”
(23:51 EST) Greg: “First game pictures look like DBZ Sparking but with real textures. Bulma seems to be a fighter this time around. They’re also giving out door prizes; Movie Tickets, etc. One guest won a role in the dub of the movie.” (Live Action Movie?)
(00:05 EST) Greg:”Toriyama left a message to the cast and crew of the movie: He felt surprised when he saw everything but after meeting the cast and crew, he felt they were splendid. He hopes that it will become a new Dragon Ball to be enjoyed and confirms that he is very much looking forward to it.”

Well it’s encouraging to know that Toriyama sama “felt they were splendid.” So many have dissed the cast for one reason or another, at least the creator of the story appreciates their effort.

I agree. I’m also glad to hear him say he hopes it will become a new Dragon Ball for people to enjoy.

It sound like Greg had some issues. He was upset at people for finding the banter between actors funny.(Which it is supposed to be.)
Greg was tainted by over the top negativism.
The voice actress for Goku even went on to confirm that Roshi’s perviness makes it in… and he bashes on it unceremoniously.
I will wait for a better report. A more accurate report. He wasnt even there for the DB area on top of that.
on to the good news…
1. Sounds like the Dragon Ball: Evolution game for the PSP is looking good so far!
Realistic Tenkaichi like character designs.
2. New Dragon Ball DS game is on the way! RPG style from the looks of it.
3. Roshi’s got his ecchi back!]
4. Akira Toriyama has given DB: Evolution a Thumbs Up!
