  • Since Dragon Balls' inception, the world itself and lore have grown far and wide. Super Saiyan, which was once revered as the transformation of legend, has now been transformed into a godly power awakened by prophecy, aka Super Saiyan God, Blue, etc. Villains are no longer those who are just trying to conquer the planet and have morphed into foes who rival the Gods of Destructions themselves. One thing that hasn’t changed, however, is the core and heart of this iconic anime -- the Dragon Balls.

    Since the beginning, the Dragon Balls have been at the core of every dispute or what saves everyone from the destruction wreaked in battle. At first, we only had Earth’s Dragon Balls who was headed by Shenron. When those were no longer enough to bring back the likes of Tien, Yamcha, Piccolo, and Chiaotzu, the gang traveled to Namek where we were introduced to the Namekian Dragon balls and Porunga. Since then, the dragon balls and their eternal dragon have only scaled up and we now have the planetary-sized Super Dragon Balls.

    Each set of Dragon Balls have their own unique set of rules about how the dragon is to be summoned, what can and can’t be wished for, and what happens to the dragon balls after the wish is made. If I were to ask you what these rules were, could you tell me? If not then you’re actually in the right place because that’s exactly what we’re talking about in today's CBR video!

  • It is well-known that Dragon Ball creator Akira Toriyama sometimes gets lost in his own universe, changing rules as he seems fit, for the sake of advancing the narrative. One thing that seems trivial at first but is actually full of surprises is the franchise’s hero Son Goku’s actual age.

    Many times we see him comment on other people looking older than he does while they should not be that far ahead in terms of age. At some point Bulma asks Vegeta why Saiyans seem to keep their youthful looks. While genes are a big part of the answer, this is not all.

    There are various elements in the Dragon Ball series which can affect the character’s ages. Take for instant death. If one dies for an x amount of time, and they are brought back later, it can be said that their calendar age is what it is supposed to be in a linear fashion. But the fact that they were immaterial before being brought back by the Dragon Balls means that their physical appearance was in a way on pause.

    This creates a split or a rift between Goku’s ages. Yes, ages plural. Depending on the saga, most of the time he has a physical or biological age, and a calendar age.

    In this video, I will review the Dragon Ball timeline spotting moments that have fluctuated both Goku’s ages, making the question “how old is Goku?” a bit more complex than what it seems.

    Now, press play and take some notes ‘cause we will be exploring Goku’s whole lifetime from Age 737 to Age 780.

    03:51 Age 24 to 30
    06:24 Ageo 30 to kinda 37
    08:27 Age 41 to 43, but no really

  • Phase 5 of the MCU is going to be the craziest yet! Although we haven’t seen any of Phase 4 yet (the wait is unbearable!), we’re already looking ahead and piecing together what we know about the projects in development to speculate on the big events that are sure to shock us in Phase 5.

    In this episode of CBR Saga, we’ll be getting a little wild as we discuss some bold Phase 5 predications that could totally happen! We know the Fantastic Four are on their way and will probably be teased in Phase 4, but could Phase 5 see Mr. Fantastic not only lead his own family but also step up as the new leader of the Avengers? It’s a possibility! And since Spider-Man is going to be caught up in some crazy multiverse shenanigans, and since Vampires are going to be a huge part of the Sony-Verse, could we see the web-head team up with none other than The Daywalker himself, Blade? How awesome would a Blade and Spider-Man team-up be? And on the space side of things, are the Guardians of the Galaxy careening toward tragedy? Will the team even stay together? And could Captain Marvel eventually team up with Nova and form the Space Avengers? Wow! Talk about a jam-packed episode!!

    So go ahead and check out the latest CBR Saga detailing all the things that could potentially happen in Phase 5. Once you’re done, drop us a comment telling us what you want to see happen in the MCU’s future as well as other topics you want us to discuss next!

  • We have to talk about Steve Rogers’ MCU story and what he did with those Gems! He started off as just a kid from Brooklyn who didn’t know how to stay down, and eventually grew into one of Earth’s Mightiest Heroes. Then at the end of the film, The Super Soldier embarked on a dangerous mission: return all the gems the Avengers had taken from the timeline and put them back exactly how he found them so as not to destroy reality. That’s just as big of an undertaking as stopping Thanos don’t you think? We know he accomplished his goal, as evidenced by Old Man Cap, but we robbed a chance to ever see how exactly this unfolded. Because let’s be honest, a lot of this seemed impossible for one guy to do!

    Because yes, he could return things like the Mind Stone and the Reality Stone, but not in the way they originally came. How will that affect things in those timelines? Would Cap stick around to help since he’s sorta responsible for the mess? And how exactly did he plan to return the Power Stone and the Soul Stone? It’s not like he would have a handy dandy spaceship right? Well, there might have been a clever workaround for this and it probably involves the Space stone!

    So check out today’s video all about the untold, unseen adventure about The First Avenger returning all the gems to their proper timelines. After you’re done, be sure to hit that big like and subscribe button for more awesome CBR content like this. And hey, I’ve heard if you leave a comment, then Disney+ might make this adventure into an animated series! Ok, that’s not necessarily true, but we can dream, right?

  • One million years ago when the great cosmic beings of the Universe, the Celestials, decided to play a little game with the genetics of the human race, they created one of the most powerful species to ever exist. These immortals have been around nearly forever, living up to the large expectations their name gives to them. They have watched events unfold, intervened when necessary, and always worked to satisfy their creators. They’ve created societies and powerful capitals that drive progression on the planet Earth. While they were created to be nearly perfect, their history is certainly riddled with conflict and destruction.

    This ancient race has been around for so long, they have served as the inspiration for many Greek and Roman mythologies, as well as religions formed in ancient civilizations that worshipped various of these Beings. They don’t always get along with each other, but when their powers combine they become one of the strongest forces in the galaxy. Death means nothing to them, as nearly all of these immortals have proven their immortality in the form of their regeneration from the great beyond.

    What events in the MCU do you think they have already had a hand in? And what do you think has caused them to finally come out of hiding? Tune in to CBR to find out what the future of the MCU could look like with the introduction of this new group of heroes. Make sure to comment and hit that like button or else one will be destroyed...and then you know inevitably come back to life. But trust me it’s definitely an inconvenience.

  • Lion turtles have made very brief appearances throughout the Avatar: The Last Airbender and The Legend of Korra, but that doesn’t mean they weren’t important. In fact, they are the ones responsible for the creation of the first Avatar, and by extension to their own future demise. Legends have it that lion turtles have gone extinct being hunted by humans, but as shown in Avatar, these rumors were not completely true. In one episode, Aang found a moving island at sea which turned out to be no other than the supposedly last living lion turtle. This mythic creature was Aang’s answer to end Fire Lord Ozai’s evil reign by using energy bending.

    In The Legend of Korra, it is explained how the first Avatar Wan collected the four elements (fire, air, water, earth) from four different lion turtles, before merging with the light spirit Raava and creating the first-ever Avatar. While he collected only those four elements which eventually engendered four distinct nations, the arrival of new bending techniques makes one wonder if there weren’t other elemental lion turtles out there. After all, the show is heavily inspired by East-Asian culture, it is possible that two other pure elements might have been skipped. In Chinese philosophy, the waxing or the five elements, include metal and wood as pure elements. What if there were wood and metal lion turtles out there?

    In today’s video, I will explain how the last known lion turtle that Aang encountered was traveling the world to lay eggs in every continent in order to revive and maintain its legacy. I will discuss how pure elemental and sub-elemental lion turtles would be changing the face of the Avatar universe after The Legend of Korra.

    Without further ado, hop on your sky bison and join in the journey. Yip yip!

  • The Hulk’s story is not over yet in the MCU! He may be Professor Hulk now, but there are still so many questions regarding what happened with Bruce Banner and the Hulk persona when they merged together to create their new identity. But is Hulk’s rage still lurking somewhere underneath all those sweater vests and nerdy glasses? And could we be setting up a more villainous turn for the character in Phase 4 and Phase 5?

    Well, today’s episode of CBR Saga is all about the Incredible Hulk’s future in the MCU. Join us as we discuss what the MCU has in store for the not so jolly green giant. Could this new, calm identity actually lead to worse things in the future? Is it about time that World War Hulk got a proper adaptation in the MCU? Could the newly formed Illuminati, consisting of heroes like Doctor Strange, Black Panther, and even Thor do something so horrendous that it forces the angry Hulk persona to break free and take over? There’s a lot to talk about today so we better get into it!

    So join us as we talk all about Hulk’s future and why we think he could be the next Big Bad of the MCU. That’s right! Step aside Galactus! Hulk is coming for that title! So check out the video and when you’re done, be sure to leave a comment telling us if you want to see Hulk as a bad guy and how the MCU should utilize the character going forward.

  • The ranks are looking a little low over at the Avengers compound. Of the original six, The Starkster and Natasha have made the big sacrifice. Steve Rogers took a late retirement, The Son of Odin has gone back to space to find his new purpose and Hawkeye keeps trying to retire. Even those who were added to the ranks, later on, are having a rough time of it. Vision has managed to do what took Loki an entire saga to do, die three times. Meanwhile, his girlfriend has unlocked her final form and it’s the kind of power where ‘good’ and ‘evil’ become kind of obscured terms...unless you’re on the business end where it feels pretty bad. It’s not all bad, though. Ant-Man & the Wasp are still active, Sam got promoted to Captain. The fact remains, though, that there aren’t a lot of Avengers to call on should an Avengers level threat arise. Especially if that threat is a former Avenger. Don’t despair, though, there’s hope and some are already in the MCU and some are on their way. It turns out that the kids are alright and they’re going to be here to save us all. As Phase IV builds out we’re getting to see a few new faces to go with some of the old faces. While characters like She-Hulk and the Moon Knight are exciting, it’s these young pups that have been lurking in the fringes that are likely to be the Avengers that end phase IV, and most of the Young Avengers story is either in place or coming. Who would you like to see added to the team? Let us know in the comments and be sure to like and subscribe for the latest videos in your inbox.

  • The MCU may be on a break in 2020, but the next decade is likely going to have more Marvel than you can possibly imagine! The Disney+ Marvel shows are going full speed ahead while the movies are ramping up, ready to premiere on the big screen once it is officially safe to go back to the movie theatres! So what is the future of the MCU looking like? I’ve got it all figured out!

    For starters, we know all about some of the big projects the MCU already has in the works. The Eternals, Shang-Chi, Blade, The Fantastic Four, She-Hulk, and more are already in development. These projects are the clearest sight of the future of the shared Marvel universe as all of these will likely have multiple sequels by the time 2030 rolls around.

    Not only that but The X-Men are certainly on their way as well. Deadpool 3 has already been announced and could be set as the jumping on point for the entire Mutant-superhero team. This could lead to several spin-offs including an inevitable Wolverine franchise, X-Force and more. Then all of this would build up to the inevitable crossover!

    As far as the next generation of Avengers, it seems like that is a safe bet as well. Marvel is introducing a ton of new characters that points to a Young Avengers project coming in our future!

    So let’s leap into the future as we explore what the next decade of the MCU will be!

  • Be honest with me. If Rhodey disappeared from the MCU forever, would you really notice? He’s been a character who has been around since the very beginning and yet he’s never really gotten his chance to shine and take center stage. Well, that could change now that Tony Stark is no longer in the picture. The world needs a new Iron Man and it might be time for Rhodey to step up and take his place.

    But just how exactly will that work? Well, that’s what today’s CBR Saga is all about! We’ll discuss in-depth how Rhodey can pull a similar move to US Agent in Falcon and the Winter Soldier and basically be the government’s new version of Iron Man. But is that too much of a rehash of what we’ve seen before? Could something happen that has Rhodey turn against the government and be his own independent hero? It’s possible! We’ll also talk about how Rhodey could be Iron Heart’s mentor in the MCU which would make perfect sense given that Riri Williams needs a mentor like Iron Man to show her the ropes. If that’s the case, then she can even factor into the upcoming Armor Wars TV show as well. All in all, the future's looking bright for one of the most underdeveloped characters in the MCU right now!

    So go ahead and check out our Rhodey discussion and let us know in the comments whether you think he could be the next Iron Man. While you’re there, be sure to hit that big like and subscribe button for more awesome MCU content like this. Thanks for watching CBR Saga! Let’s get started.

  • Despite it being a huge moment in MCU history, the after-effects of the Blip have barely been highlighted. The direst consequences we’ve seen are students having to retake classes and midterms after getting dusted halfway through the school year. However, in Episode Four of Wandavision, we learned the true effects of the blip as a hospital that was already at capacity faced chaos as the vanished returned. If this took place in one hospital, think about what took place worldwide and across the universe as people randomly returned to the exact places they vanished? There would be an insane amount of casualties all across the universe and that isn’t even the worst of it.

    After the universe got dusted the first time, everything essentially fell apart. As we saw in Avengers: Endgame, the world was barely managing to provide for those who survived, and now out of nowhere three and a half million people suddenly appear? What effects did this have? In today's CBR video we are going to discuss the lasting effects of the Blip in regards to housing, resources, and much more. How will the Vanished and those who survived to survive in this new world? We will also discuss Thanos’ ideology and ask was he justified in his reasoning to snap away half of life? By the end of this video, we will know if The Avengers are the hero of this story, or truly the villains? If you're ready CBR fans, this video starts right now! Thank you for watching!

  • The future of the marvel cinematic universe looks bright with new characters and old characters, new formats, and old formats. While it’s been a long wait, the first entries in Phase IV of the Marvel Cinematic Universe have started to come in and they promise an epic follow-up to the epic Infinity Saga. Wanda and Vision have dealt with grief and loss and in the process unlocked some reality-bending powers as the Scarlet Witch. Sam Wilson has taken the mantle of Captain America and now the green magician is facing consequences for some of his actions. The Prince of Lies that left 2012 when he shouldn’t have has found himself in the hands of the TVA and hidden in the orientation by Miss Minutes is a clue to what might be in store for the Marvel Cinematic Universe going forward. Like the Marvel Ultimate universe created a few too many timelines for Marvel Comics, the divide between Marvel Studios and Marvel Entertainment, and the merger between Fox and Disney bringing in the Fantastic Four and Mutants, the Marvel Universe now has its own too many realities problem. Could it be that Miss Minutes' story about the different multiverses going to war is a portent of things to come? In the comics, the solution to that problem was 2015’s Marvel Comic that saw universe 616 come in conflict with the Ultimates 1610 with only one reality left standing in the end. Do you think this will be the epic conclusion of the new saga? Let us know below and be sure to like and subscribe for more CBR videos straight to your inbox.
