Because like AF it's terrible/uninspired fan nonsense few people want adapted into an anime?


Please don't compare DBM with AF
I understand its "fanmade" and therefore it's all the same to you but once you explore the depth of both waters, you will see how beautiful Multiverse really is
I suggest you give it a shot man!

I wonder if Akira Toriyama will still remain as a consultant if not being heavily involved in expanding the Dragon Ball universe.

More Dragon Ball is always good. They just have to make sure that the ideas are not being reused over and over again.

There's a Gintama parody waiting to be realized out of this idea.

If only Toei would dedicate a department, too, instead of doing forty projects at once and making Super look chintzy in the art department so often because they're working on so many other things.

Ironically, both Dragon Ball Z Abridged and Dragon Ball Multiverse were created around 2008 and are the only fanmade series with a talent to entertain us fans and a strong passion and desire to finish what they started.
 
Both have made references of each other, insinuating they are fans of the other
Such as episode 42 when Gohan references the Multiverse Theory and in History of Trunks when Bulma says "annnd Multiverse Theory it is... shit" while Trunks departs in his Time Machine
or even Super Android 13 when Trunks states that besides Multiverse Theory, the Android didn't exist in the future
And lastly when Cell eerily explains the basic 4 Parallel Universes created by their time traveling shenanigans, saiyan "Here's the thing kiddo, Multiverse Theory's a bitch" in recent Episode 53

And DBM, with Raditz and Yamcha Trolling and Gokus over exaggerated stupidity and even in a Panel when Gohan says "I am an Adult"

Both go deep in the source material, even from Toriyama's other projects like Chrono Trigger
Dragon Ball Z is Abridged is currently on Episode 55
Dragon Ball Multiverse is on Chapter 54
Both are Masterpieces, serving Justice to the Original Smile

The Multiverse Theory is basically the idea that there are an infinite amount of Parallel Universes like the one Future Trunks came from
There's a Universe where Goku never hit his head and killed everyone on Earth
Or a Universe where Vegetto never defused
A Universe where Cell won or Buu or even Frieza and they all participate together in this Multiversal Tournament

Edited the double post. Please just edit your own posts rather than creating a new one. -Galap

Probably tried to get the game via a lottery draw but couldn't do to the RNG being a bitch Razz

Snark aside though Xenoverse wasn't really all that good.

Creating your character is fun and i love Xenoverse's whole story, but I still train on Budokai Tenkaichi 3 and Tenkaichi Tag Team on a daily basis because that fighting style was best for DBZ
(Also Xenoverse is 4 letters short of Multiverse)
Wtf
Life likes to tease me
Super looks fanmade
Multiverse actually is :/
BRING BACK TENKAICHI!!!
MAKE MULTIVERSE INTO A SERIES!!!
FUND TEAM FOUR STAR!!!

......Budokai 3 and DragonBall Origins 2 aren't good games Crying or Very sad?


And how long as it been since Budokai 3?
Budokai 3, Tenkaichi 2&3, Goku's Legacy 2, Buu's Fury and who knows one or two more that I'm forgetting are great games, but after Tenkaichi 3 they haven't been really that good.

Xenoverse is better than the most recent DB games, but not as good as the old ones.

Dragon Ball has it's own vast universe, there's room for so many projects that have nothing to do with Goku. It's like Star Wars.

Except DB has nowhere near the amount plot holes "Star Wars" had with the Expanded Universe.
