Much on the heels of Central City, there is also the fact that the Demon Realm isn't at all represented in any of the boards. dragonball.wikia.com/wiki/Demon_RealmThe Demon Realm (魔界, Makai), also called Demon World, and sometimes the Dark Demon Realm,[1][2] is located at the very tip of the universe in the Dragon Ball series, and is not a part of the living world or Other World. It is described as a physical plane opposite of the known universe. We have seen shots of this realm from the Dabura fight as well as in some games — albeit the games aren't exactly canon. EDIT: I don't know if this matters, but considering that the demon realm is placed a 'the tip of the universe', opposing this one, I feel like it'd be very possible to use ships to reach that location. ALTERNATIVELY We could introduce this mechanic: Allow every world to access the Demon Realm through gateways or portals. The travel time is identical to whatevere ship you have (Or none, whatever you want to do). Every world goes to the same demon realm, however you may only return to the world you entered the demon realm from. This could server an an 'in-between' hub between the worlds. While this could introduce a bizarre meet up mechanic I feel like a 'pass' could be purchased to discourage using this to meet up and thread with friends instead of buying a ship. Maybe not something obscenely expensive, but around 100z — enough that you wouldn't have to worry about spending, but could accumulate into a sizable amount over time.

*Improtu transfer of thoughts on this*
Demon Realm is seen on the tip of the known universe, as the opposite of it. If you wish to transport there, I would suggest going there require you to remain on the world you are on, but travel there ends up with you going to a mirror world of the planet! For instance, if you're on Earth, it would be Makai-Earth, a world that looks more like Vegeta with its pink skies, desolate landscapes with very few cities.
I'm up for giving the Demon Realm an opening! How it's done, though, is something that needs evaluation.

I'm all for the implementation of a Demon Realm! Pieter's idea sounds interesting, too. Maybe a sub-board called Demon Realm simply, then the thread title or first post has to indicate which demon-realm version of a planet you're on. That would reduce clutter from having duplicate boards for demon realm worlds!

I'm down for this too. Saiyans trans-versing into the Demon Realm. o3o

I made a sizable edit to my post. Those who seemed interested in the idea originally please take a look, as I feel you may be pleased with the suggestion.

Oh boy, I'm all in for this! Mind if I give some ideas? Maybe with the addition of the demon realm, demons themselves can get a Unique Characteristic that allows instant travel between the mortal world and the demon world alone, much like an Ogre's "Trip to the Other Side" UC. Other species can get a rather pricey modifier to their ship to open a portal to the realm of demons with the usual 24 hour wait, or perhaps maybe some kind of cheaper instant-travel "Day Pass" can be obtained as well for those one-stop-shoppers. I'm all for the whole Makai-Worlds thing as well! It would be neato if there can be some super deep place reminiscent of Pokemon Platinum's Distortion World. Is this because I'm a sucker for Sinnoh and Platinum was my first Pokemon game? Maybe. But it'd be cool to have a board in a twisted world that defies reality where the most powerful of demons lurk.

The one issue I've got with the Demon Realm stuff is that it is sealed off in canon. There was a door that led there in the original Dragon Ball, but Goku closed that up. And the whole plotline for Xenoverse 1 and Xenoverse 2 is that Tomo is trying to bring about the revival of the Demon Realm. That's really the only issue I'd have though with the Demon Realm being a thing, is how it'd go about being unsealed and such.

I don't think we need it yet. I popped this idea once before as well and had a good bit of discussion about it before it was deemed unnecessary because we didn't have enough players traversing the boards that already exist. My own selfish reasons aside to conquer said realm - I believe the reasoning that held back my suggestion still stands. We really don't have any need to add another board (or realm for that matter) that very few players will actually traverse. See here for my own thread: wodsouls.freeforums.net/thread/3708/demon-land-sub-forum

We do not need more boards. Zerori's link has the relevant arguments.

It wouldn't necessarily have to be a new board, i don't think? Since Demon Realm worlds are supposed to be like twisted alternates to the current ones, it could just take place in those currently existing boards but be clarified with a title like "DEMON REALM" or something like that. As for traveling, I think that the day pass idea for purchase is a good one, but that it might to better to increase the price to at least something substantial like 1k or 2k zeni for maybe a month or 2 of access to the realm before it expires.

While i like the idea of a new board and i think the demon realm could be a really cool idea, i feel that the boards we already have are not used, so why add more? If all the boards were used then maybe i'd be on for this idea but i really don't see how it is practical to add more boards when half of them are barley used.

It's fine if you're from there, originally, but it's not really a place you can easily get in or out of. I don't want to see a bunch of random Saiyans going 'Hey, I've been to the Demon Realm.' and stuff. (Though I am okay with a Central Capitol subboard in the North )

Yeah, very well-rounded raasons as to the lack of integration to the Demon Realm. Glad to hear both the ones here and in Central, I agree with both of 'em.
Thank for all the feedback.
