CBR Saga CBR Saga

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.

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!
