New Message from Toriyama,

A story in the universe next door? Gigantic "Super Dragon Balls"? The past two movies made into "arcs"?!?!

Get HYPE!

Yeah, that doesn't sound cool.

And it seems this more or less confirms that the two latest movies are non canon now. We'll that was faster than I thought.
 
Pan needs to be a fighter by the end and I want to see her go Super Saiyan.

So BOG and ROF are no longer canon and this series will cover the same events

Or BOG AND ROF are part of the series BUT will be a part of bigger arcs?


Im confused
 
Will we see a female Super Saiyan?

Will we see anyone but Goku and Vegeta save the day?

Will Goku ever be strong enough to beat Superman?

Answers to these questions and more in the next series of Dragon Ball!
Oh shit never thought of that before.

Goku would crush superman.
 
If Goku and his friends/family travel to another universe, does that mean they'll be following the theory that they'll come across different versions of themselves there, or that this universe has completely different beings living there? I'm going to guess it's the latter.
 
It just occurs to me that Broly second form looks a lot like SSGSS!

180


Plot twist: Broly is the first/true Super Sayian God!

Is it possible for me to order this being in the US? they have some hot shit there my lawd
 
There's a direct translation over at Kanzenshuu.

Story part of it:
“Dragon Ball Super” is a complete continuation of the Majin Buu story arc. It’s got a bit of post-battle aftermath, continues with the “Battle of Gods” arc where the God of Destruction Beerus appears and the “Revival of ‘F'” arc where Freeza comes back to life, and then, I’ve written a strange new story where they finally depart even this universe. They’re fighting against their neighbors, Universe 6! They’ll yell at me if I give away too many spoilers, so I’ll keep the rest a secret, but they’re chasing after giant super Dragon Balls; I think things will unfold in a bright and simple way, that will be really fun and exciting!
 
The best thing about Super retelling the story from the movies is that we will get to see in detail the adventures of the Pilaf gang. Man, they became one of my favorite things of the new Dragon Ball stuff, and hopefully, they will expand the creepy relationship between
Mai and Trunks
and make it something official.

I'm pretty excited about this, can't wait.

I just watched Battle of the Gods the other day and I still can't believe they did that. I say go for it!
 
So, Revival of F and Battle of Gods will be a part of this new series, but divided in episodes

Then, new universe with new characters,!
 
there's gonna be no filler, right?

the prospect of a carefully planned series devoid of garbage is rustling my jimmies.
 
Not sure why they felt the need to retell the story of the movies that were just released, but I'll see where they go with it. Hopefully they don't spend too much time on it.
 
The less Goku the better. I'm curious, but I'm going to wait till the series is further to see if they even bother to develop any of the other characters at all before I bother.

The last time we had the most Goku we had the original anime series Dragonball. The GOAT show.

We need more Bulma, Yajirobe, and Goku.
 
dragon balls can already bring back the dead, bring back planets, give someone eternal life.... and summon panties. I wonder why they will need to go after giant dragon balls in other universes.

it will really depend on how well planned out the whole series is. this is ideally something he has been thinking about for years and has fairly far along, but it wouldn't be impossible to get filler like arcs if he is struggling to get the next arc to a condition he is happy with.

also despite not being a manga adaption it's still completely possible there will be long stalls and lots of screaming and what not, as standing around talking is a lot cheaper than fast paced fighting.

multiple reasons for this most likely.
first off they will clearly show where the movies fit by doing this.
second they can stall to finalize the stuff that comes out after the movies more.
third, they could reuse animation from the movies to get episodes done with less work, resulting in giving them more time for future episodes or just pocketing the savings.
forth, it would give them a chance to expand the movies. battle of the gods has plenty of times where extra scenes would be great.
fifth, they can sell the movies again to the dragon ball fans just in episodic form this time instead of a movie :P

also it's not like retreading the movies will hurt ratings much, db kai was one of the top 10 rated animated shows in japan its entire run aside from a random week here or there where some specials bumped it from the list.
 
I wonder if the other universes will see a bunch of alternate versions of characters. (Gohan who kept training, Goku who didn't bump his head, Vegeta who stayed a villain, etc.) or if they'll be entire different from the universe we know with all new characters.
 
Hypeeeeee

Focus more on Gohan and Vegeta please. No more Goku as the main hero.

you guys are going to have to accept that the best you will get with gohan is a quick train and power up.

in fact if we move to other universes I wouldn't be surprised if gohan is written out of the show. He isn't his father, he cares about his wife and kid instead of a promising place to fight and would likely stay home to be with his wife and protect the earth while his father is away instead of running off without his wife and deserting his kid.

and well goku isn't going anywhere, he is the most popular character by far.

I think what I would prefer is that as we get farther away from our universe they get less and less alike.

thus I am assuming our universe is universe 7 (with 7 dragon balls) and they talk about universe 6. Thus universe 6 and 8 are a lot alike with alternate versions of the characters (such as fat versions or gender swapped gods :P) but each universe gets more and more unique as you get away from 7 thus universe 5 and 9 would have some of the characters in different forms but have completely new characters in other cases (for example maybe in 9 nappa became more powerful than vegeta and killed off vegeta and nappa has his own unique crew)

it would of course depend on how universes work in this series.
 
i'm so pumped for this, but i'm probably gonna go dark from now to funimation's complete dub boxset. 2019 here we come.
 
multiple universes means we may see a goku who didn't bump his head as a babby, or some shit

Yeah, curious to know if the multiple universes are just alternative versions of the same characters or different people just living in another time/space. I would like it to be the latter.

Also, I really liked Resurrection F, but I hope this time Frieza
is a real threat, kills some people and Vegeta finally gets his revenge against him. While I like the whole DBZ story, the most emotional moments came from the Frieza arc, because of how vile he was and how one-sided the battle was before Guku turned Super Saiyan.
 
Pan doesn't exist yet? Oh lord.

It's been on sale at ami-ami for months. They ship to the US.
 
I get what they were going for with Champa being the slightly fatter version of Beerus because of being from an alternate universe, but as a fan, it's boring to see because I like to see different and creative character designs. Champa is just lazy character creation.
 
I hope there's an arc where Mr. Satan accidentally gets sent to another universe, and when they find him it turns out that it's a universe so weak that he's genuinely the strongest person there.

Better yet, a universe where Gohan and Videl's baby is a boy, has the power of a saiyan but looks just like Mr. Satan.
 
i GET THat Toriyama wants to go for simpler designs, but a female Whis and fatter Beerus is just plain lazy lol.

Seriously I hope that isn't the case where the other universes are just filled with alternate version characters

Though it would be funny if we saw GT as another universe, SSJ4 Goku vs Super Saiyan God Goku
