Here is your reminder that Super Buu is indeed best Buu.
I know I am very much alone on this but I am still holding a candle for Ginyu and Zarbon.

We already got the best Buu.
I think that's what most of us expect.
Yep, and the only one that we need.

It makes sense to reveal them now.
It also makes sense to reveal the Super characters (Beerus, Hit and Black) last.
Most of Jiren's moves that weren't rapid punchs or generic beams were grapples and throws. Given his body type as well I could envision a version of Jiren that makes it into this game that is heavy on the grappling.
Tell me more oh game developer!
Anyway to be serious, my point was that the time scale fans run on isn't the same one developers do. An episode that airs this weekend was written and animated weeks/months ago and conceptualized even earlier than that. That means its possible that the dev team would have access to that info (remember the game isn't realizing until February the earliest and they haven't finished all the characters given the Game Informer info dump) and be able to utilize it. It's not a guarantee that they can or will, just that timing matches up in a way that doesn't make it impossible.

When did they reveal súper buu?

I'm definitely expecting Black and/or Beerus to be last. I could see them showing off Hit a bit earlier just to confirm that Super characters other than Goku/Vegeta are in (blah, blah, blah, Frieza install).

Idk not even Xenoverse stays completely current with the show.
And traditional fighting games take a lot more planning. The roster and what they can do has probably been decided on for a while now, in advance of even its reveal. They aren't making any changes based on last week or last month's episode of Super.

They're nowhere close to Beerus.
In a sparring match, Vegeta uses Perfect SSJBlue against Beerus. The most he gets out of it is landing a punch in his face, after which Beerus immediately one-shots him.
The SSJG Goku vs Beerus fight was also hilariously one-sided. Goku literally never even landed a punch in the manga.

And this is why I want to read the manga now, because going off the anime, it makes us think both Goku and Vegeta aren't too far off.
There's also Android 21, seeing as we don't know if she's playable or not.
What did he mean by this?

I too would take Nappa and Ginyu over any nonBeerus super characters
I only want Nappa if it's TeamFourStar Nappa
You're right. He's also the only form of Buu that's interesting as a villain

Nappa def deserves a spot. He fights uniquely and is visually distinct, big bodied. Some nice variety that wouldn't hurt the roster.

The balance of power makes alooooooooooot more sense in the manga.
Trunks never gets that ridiculous power surge that he does in the anime, and instead gets a completely different (more sensible) ability during his time as apprentice to Supreme Kai before the Black saga.
Vegeta and Goku have actually both aged a minimum of 3 years during the events of Super, due to them using the Time Chamber to train for Champa's tournament. Vegeta actually went in for an extra few months in order to develop a technique to use against Black.
Champa, Beerus, and all the other Destruction Gods all seem waaaaaaay more dangerous than in the Manga. (That Clown guy in particular seems pretty terrifying.) There's a flashback battle between Champa and Beerus that more closely resembled the manga battle between SSG Goku and Beerus.
As for how powerful/skilled Beerus actually is? The recent manga just had him get jumped by all of the gods of destruction, and he actually managed to fight them off.
Nappa definitely needs to get in, he's an interesting enough body type. I'd also like to see Recoome.

I hope he gets the Demon Gi back again, I think he has in the manga unless I'm wrong.

Well there's plus 1 for the manga. Shame that like all its other changes it will most likely be ignored.

that yogioh card tho
I think the timeline will go like this
- Ultimate Gohan, Gotenks and Kid Buu will be shown next to round up the Buu Saga
- Popular villains like Nappa, Ginyu, Broly are shown next and then Roshi will be shown because idk when else they'd show him
- Beerus, Hit and Black finish off the reveals with the "Super's titans are here!" tagline
That's 10 left. We'll be good.

Still not sure about Broly on Day 1, but your list would put us at a respectable 25 characters. I hope thats the case, but I fear that we may end up at around 21-22 characters on Day 1.
Your idea for the rollout of reveals is kinda what I expect, though I was thinking Buu Saga -> DBS characters (at Jump Fiesta) -> Android 21 (if shes playable).
I don't know where you are getting that from... I think a lot of people are very excited by the idea of Ginyu with Ginyu Force assists. He is probably one of the more popular suggestions. Zarbon has also been given a surprising amount of love.
I havent seen as much Zarbon love as you, but I doubt doubt what youve seen. That said, I can vouch for the excitement for Ginyus potential moveset if he gets in.

If they are Dutch, upright and breathing they are more racist than your favorite player
The Super manga is not bad, the artist can draw the characters well and its easy to read ... but his choreography is extremely basic and lacks a ton of the sense of impact Toriyamas art has. Unambitious is the word I would use to describe it.
Its not that good ):

These GI articles really fell off, lol.
Considering V-jump already gets all the important exclusive stuff, GI is really trying their best with the scraps they get.
I mean they did get a new build with 4 characters, 2 new stage, a new combat mechanic which they will probably get into in the future. Maybe not amazing but not bad. They also may save the best for last though it's definitely stretched out.

If Kid Buu gets in he needs to do biting
I guess I should contextualize that... for a fairly minor character, Zarbon has had a fair number of people mention that they want to see him.

It'd be funny if they added Ginyu with a Guldo assist because of how it'd make Hit redundant lol
Where does Dabura fit into this? You know, the red devil who wears a blue jumpsuit and a cape, uses a sword and spits on people to turn them to stone? Otherwise known as the ideal fighting game character? I couldn't help but notice that you neglected to say when he'll be revealed.
Any day now, I'm sure...

This has me excited. Maybe I'll start right after resurrection F with the manga and go from there.
Beerus' exhibited power in the manga is likely not canon to the anime continuity;
Goku's showcase of Ultra Instinct indeed made a few of the GoDs worried, but the top 4 seemed pretty unimpressed. In Toyotaro's GoD exhibition match, Beerus clearly managed to outspeed them through Ultra Instinct.

How does having Ginyu with Guldo make Hit redundant? Their movesets arent even the same. Are you trolling bro?
