It’s been just over 10 years since one of Hollywood’s most failed projects, Dragon Ball Evolution, a live-action film in the franchise that had many problems with a script and special effects that looked bad upon release. Despite these roadblocks, fans are still wondering what a viable real-life version would look like, using artificial intelligence to get the results they want to achieve.
One of the most used tools Midjourney, where they introduce reference words and images to transfer things to a real environment, the results of which can be described as acceptable, although some are not very good that come from machines without the ability to imagine. Ultimately there is an interesting mix between the three dimensions but with a human touch that can both be annoying.

For those who don’t know much about the subject, dragon ball is a manga and anime series created by Akira Toriyama. The story follows the adventures of Son Goku, a monkey-tailed boy with superhuman strength, who embarks on a quest for the Dragon Ball to fulfill his dream of becoming the strongest warrior. As the story progresses, Goku encounters friends and enemies, faces epic challenges, and participates in various martial arts tournaments.
The franchise is known for its exciting fights, charismatic characters, and Goku’s evolution from an innocent child to a powerful warrior. The series has had a lasting impact on pop culture and remains one of the most popular anime and manga sagas worldwide.

Editor’s note: The truth is I don’t think there needs to be a live action Dragon Ball right now, after all the franchises have their own lights out, and interesting things like the next video game as well as the publication of the super manga are coming.
