Media The Dragon Ball Thread

I wasn't aware that we had a dragon ball thread, but I saw it on the front page. i'm of course a long time fan, and have been reading it in japanese lately, on the cell arc now. I actually bought jp physicals the first time i went to japan in 2011, so it feels like finally making good on an old promise to myself

here's a trunks for the thread.

On the topic of Trunks drawings, the third Interval Special illustration dropped a few days ago and it features a very dripped out Present Trunks with Saiyaman X2 Goten:

Seemingly apropos of nothing a new Daima trailer dropped. The official website has some accompanying new art:

Mira-lookin' dude is named Glorio, the new demon king(?)'s called Gomah and the hooded figure is currently dubbed "The Masked Majin" although it's doubtful that is their real name.

Also, they're definitely hiding something with Gohan, right? He's literally the only major Z Fighter we have seen absolutely no sign of
 

This ending fills me with this vaguely forlorn, melancholic sensation and I'm not entirely sure why. Something to do with the aesthetics and vibe being so far detached from what Dragon Ball has been for so long? I don't think so, no other early OG DB media makes me feel like this.
 
I'm Reading Dragon Ball for the first time and noticing all the influence it had on other mangas.
For example there's a scene in One Piece where Luffy hits his opponent and then angrily tells him to get up. I wondered why he did that because it seemed a bit unusual for him, but now I realize this is because the scene is highly inspired by the Goku vs Piccolo fight, where Goku says the same thing to Piccolo.
