Wait so there will be a movie, a novel, a more than likely the Super manga will do an adaptation of this movie? Damn!
But I swear to god if Toei even tries to turn this movie into an arc when Super TV series come back I'm going to go crazy!

Toriyama confirmed the manga will do this Broly story & will be different.

Since the retellings of BoG/"F" were Toriyama's idea more than likely will be the case for this movie if or when DBS returns on the air.

This seems like a bad idea. Dragon ball is all about the visuals.

Wait, it not a Light Novel? I guess it will give more detail on the backstory

Guess that didn't apply to Gundam when Tomino started it off as a novel which would become the big anime franchise it turned into.

We don't need this, the canon is confused and messed up as it is.

Toriyama's movie script was long enough to make a 3-hour long movie. Toei had to shortened it to 100 minutes. The novel might be the closest thing we get to see from Toriyama's original script.

Novelizing DBZ almost sounds like an oxymoron. Laughing

Everyone joke all you want. I for one relish the chance to see what this will look like as a serious attempt.

I've seen some Fanfic that was good to read. And honestly that's just prove that Dragon Ball start to feel as big as Star Wars.

Are you saying Dragon Ball is going to fail just like Star Wars did? I mean you don't have to say that because it already did. As in its fans, ofc.
