Dragon Blog Super #16: What If Vegeta Went Ultra First?

Hello, Ticketholders and Redditors!

This week's AniMonday Filler is another comment feature from the MasakoX subReddit: a reply to a post from GokuKing922 titled, "What If Vegeta got Ultra Ego Instead?", which he admits doesn't do the concept justice. Here it is:
The idea is that instead of Ultra Instinct from Goku, Vegeta unlocks Ultra Ego during the Tournament of Power. How would it go?
And here is my off-the-cuff response:
Use the manga continuity where Goku used hakai on Zamasu, and Vegeta starts his training with Beerus early (food bribe!) because he's still chasing Goku. Beerus has more of a connection to hakai than UI, so he'd agree on the basis of the food and hakai being easier to teach because he's lazy. Goku would struggle with UI because Whis is more detached as a teacher (even more so since Goku figured out hakai before UI), and so Goku's training would suffer, causing him to work towards Blue Evolution instead. Everything else would progress the same, just with Vegeta's Ego boost getting him through fights with Kefla and Jiren (the latter getting him disqualified when he uses a Final Hakai Explosion that kills Jiren). Goku desperately uses Kaio-ken Evolution to muscle his way through Toppo's hakai (if Freiza can handle hakai energy and Goku's Kaio-ken Blue can overpower time, this can work, too). Android 16 still survives the chaos and wins, wishing back the erased Universes and saving all reality. The Broly Movie is basically the same, just with Vegeta not willing to use UE after he lost control against Jiren, instead of Goku going "oops! I forgot cuz writin'." The Moro Arc resumes the status quo with Goku training with Merus, and Vegeta training on Yardrat (but for different reasons this time). Maybe instead of Granolah, the Saiyans go to U6 Sadala for more Vegeta development? The rest is yours!

I look forward to seeing what GokuKing922 does with this (and what TheMultiBrony21 does with the Future Androids turning good from last week's post), but if you'd like to see me continue this idea and elaborate on some of the details in a future post, let me know in the comments down below, like this post, subscribe to my blog, and follow me on Tumblr, Reddit, and Facebook for the latest news on my content.
Tomorrow, Ticket Stubs makes a return for Independence Day with an old review that might kick off some social media fireworks, and later this week, a comic book with no title gets a Retrospective review, TBT 2023's selections are Dead In the Water, and stuff turning into robots is Just the Ticket. So Stay Tuned, and

Illustrious,
Owl.

Stay Tuned #55: Goosebumps (Disney+ Season One)

Image
Article by Sean Wilkinson, a.k.a. the Ticketmaster I'm confused, Ticketholders. And disappointed in the lack of originality in visual media over the past few years. On top of the Fear Street trilogy and the TV series I'm reviewing today, I've also been watching the first season of Yellowjackets on Netflix because Paramount+ (like a broken floor scrubber) has a lot of buffering issues. All three are either set in or flash back to the 90s, and include a lot of the same songs and relationship dynamics (troubled same-sex couple, love triangle, toxic relationship, etc.). So the plot points and characters start to bleed together (heh; horror puns...) after awhile. But that doesn't make them bad products on their own merits. By my own actions, my merits (viewer analytics) have diminished significantly this month, so please remember to  Become A Ticketholder  if you haven't already, comment your thoughts on the Goosebumps reboot at the bottom of this post, help out my

Zenescope - Omnibusted #26: Grimm Fairy Tales TPB Volume 10

Image
Article by Sean Wilkinson, a.k.a. the Omnibuster I know that this is the third of these I've done in a row, but I have an established pattern to adhere to, so let's get Omnibusted ...again! As suggested by  Volume Nine , the Grimm Fairy Tales  issues contained in the Volume Ten Trade Paperback will continue to follow the journey of Sela and her companions through Myst. According to the  Zenescope Entertainment Wiki Chronological Reading Order , Volume Ten is also the last before Zenescope's first two big event series ( Myths & Legends  and  The Dream Eater Saga ). And Volume Ten marks the first time since  GFT #49  that an issue (or in this case, an entire Volume of issues) has gone untitled on the credits page. Speaking of The Dream Eater Saga , the zero issue of that series was featured as the short story for Volume Ten, as opposed to past Volumes having original short stories (or in one case so far, a Swimsuit Special) that added lore to the series. But because I wou

Dragon Blog Daima #23: Chatty

Article by Sean Wilkinson, a.k.a. the Animeister My plan to record footage of me playing the new Vampire Survivors ' Ode to Castlevania DLC didn't pan out the way I wanted (because the update is massive -  or as MasakoX once pronounced it, which feels like a more appropriate expression, "ma- hoo -sive" - and I don't have the time, desire, or phone memory to devote to entire days of recording). But I'm still enjoying the experience of unlocking the new characters (there's a guy with a grenade launcher! A whip that explodes!), discovering the new quality of life changes (there's a map zoom now!), and exploring the environment (Dracula's castle! Hidden forest clearings! Giant bosses! Metroid vania -style progression unlocks! Platforming in a horde survival roguelike‽). And I don't think I'm even halfway done yet! So if you love playing Castlevania (or watching people on the internet play Castlevania ), give Vampire Survivors and the Ode t
