I've always loved Gogeta and Vegito or whatever their names are. I can't remember if it was a trait of both but one for sure was incredibly cocky, and it was probably the only instance when it was justified. Gogeta/ Vegito when they showed up were always way ahead of the opposition in front of them, in that Janemba film the fucker was destroyed with no worries at all. GT whilst not cannon continued that trend, the fusion could have finished Omega Shenron in about 5 seconds but of course Goku had to be the centre of attention so that never happened.

Then again Super would not do any justice to the fusion so I hope that's left alone. I think the writers would nerf the shit out of Gogeta/Vegito if they were in this anime, if not the fusion would be capable of bringing down Beerus or at the very least giving him something to seriously worry about.

Vegito the Chocolate Warrior is pretty god tier

So far there's nothing to indicate Frost is "benevolent" only that he isn't flat out evil like Freeza.

For all, we know he could be like Beerus and be neutral in a good mood yet kill you in a second if you piss him off.

 

[Enter the Dragon Punch]

Spoiler

You know... I'm entirely expecting Tarble to be reintroduced and added to the cast during the inevitable search for the Super Dragon Balls (after all, he IS canon). I know he disliked fighting, but... I could see him having a change of heart. Maybe Cabba is his universe 7 equivalent? Small, not much muscle mass, similar hair style, both wear a variation of Saiyan armour.

No goten And gohan avatar in there just for the lawls?! You disappointed me kagari

But Goten suc.....ohhhh

Spoiler

We don't know if Frost is benevolent or malevolent, and the whole thing about Hit being Universe 6's greatest hero came from nowhere, literally the only thing that has been said officially about him is his description from V-Jump "Hit: With his cool outfit, which looks like he's wearing a long coat, there's no doubt he's a warrior!! There's a dangerous feel to the name "Hit"..."

 

[Icyflamez96]

Spoiler

Maybe all the even numbered universes are the "good" ones and the odd ones are the evil versions.

The final boss of Super will be from universe 13, no doubt.

I was disappointed with the movie at first because I really wanted to see Gogeta. He appeared on screen for 40 seconds tops. On rewatch it's actually a pretty fun movie, I feel the ending is still anticlimatic.

this poster is bitchin and so is the theme song

Gogeta's strikes to Janemba's head sound like fucking THUNDER.

Best ending of all times. And DAT MUSIC.

Not a fan of Gohan not exploding

 

[Anth0ny]

Yeah recolored super saiyan 4 is SO MUCH better than recolored super saiyan...

/s

I DONT FUCKING NEED FUTURE TRUNKS JUST GIVE ME THIS AT LEAST. TOEI PLS.

I wouldn't mind if Trunks hits puberty in Super and his mother tells him the tale of Future Trunks, makes him Future Trunks' outfit, and inspires him to stop being comic relief and instead a bad ass mother fucker. With a sword.

Not a fan of Gohan not exploding

Back when Gohan was a real mutha fuckin g.

It's okay. He'll be back soon.

 

[Badpsychometry]

So is this a new timeline or something? I haven't seen Dragon ball since the buu saga in 2003 I think?

Best introduction in the series too, easy. Wish current Trunks was half as cool as Future Trunks.

 

[Hidden One]

It's a quick and dirty edit, but I can't be the only one that thinks that SSJ4 would look better if it was something more like this.

This just makes a lot more sense and the colors aren't over the top.

I've always thought the fur should be golden. Black hair, gold fur.

 

[Anth0ny]

So is this a new timeline or something? I haven't seen Dragon ball since the buu saga in 2003 I think?

It takes place between the end of the buu saga but before the end of Z with uub. Not a new timeline, completely canon with the original show.

 

[NeonZ]

So is this a new timeline or something? I haven't seen Dragon ball since the buu saga in 2003 I think?

It's a continuation that takes place after the Buu Saga, but before the 2 epilogue episodes. It's a new timeline in the sense that it does things that are completely incompatible with GT, but it's meant to be Z's official continuation.

 

[FadedRevolution]

Fusion Reborn had some weird ass powers. I don't even know what the hell the stardust breaker was.

Pretty sure its called the attack was called Soul Punisher.

 

[Chaotic-Strike]

Pretty sure its called the attack was called Soul Punisher.

Budokai 3 it was called Soul Punisher while the later Tenkaichi games called it Stardust Breaker.

I don't even think it has an official name.

Tons of those video game attacks are totally made up. Pretty sure Raditz never had named attacks... Until the budokai games made them up.

 

[Aaron Strife]

It seemed like such a weird, pointless addition. He doesn't die in the RoF movie.

They probably added it to give Gohan extra motivation to train again after Piccolo had to save his ass.

Yeah that's true and it was always hilarious when Funimation tried to make it official in their Saiyan Saga Redub.

 

[Ultra Numb]

Yeah, the motivations are clear now.

Goku trains to get stronger

Vegeta trains because he doesn't want "that clown" as he would say to leave him in the dust

Gohan trains as a need to protect those he loves, realising that Goku and Vegeta won't always be around.

 

[SolVanderlyn]

Toriyama tends to reuse faces but he covers that up by varying the eye shapes, the hairstyles, and the body language. You can usually tell which character is which even if they are meant to be far away.

Case in point:

If these two designs were in the show at the same time, I couldn't even tell who was fighting. Even SSJ4 avoided this issue.

Future Trunks' hair as a Super Saiyan looks so unique. I wonder why Kid Trunks' looks different.

 

[Represent.]

all these movie gifs.. the animation is so dope.
i appreciate them so much more now ;(

I'm already loving Vados.

I'm already loving Vados.

Same voice actor as Robin over in One Piece. Definitely helps.

 

[foxuzamaki]

What's this about new gohan

 

[Kagari]

The quality in the new episode is pretty good. Loving the rivalry between Beerus and Champa.

Edit: Well that went by faster than expected. Not much "new" that wasn't in the manga version of Whis explaining the multiple universes and Champa suggesting a tournament. Vegeta and Goku are training wearing heavy suits... still no indication of what's going on on Earth yet. Next episode should involve the selection of participants while Bulma gets selected to search for the super DBs.

 

[slightconfuse]

Gohan getting a push??? I do t believe it

 

[Chaotic-Strike]

Apparently Beerus and Champa stopped fighting since it would cause both of their universes to get destroyed according to Herms.

It's true.

Also, Universe 6's Earth looks a mess.

Well I didn't quite care for this episode at all, since this was pretty much a 1:1 of the manga chapter, safe for the action part of the manga that they simply wrote out.

Preview gave 0 hype.

Still excited as a whole !

Nothing spectacular visually, but it looked fairly decent, nothing too bad nothing too good. If quality stays around that, it's absolutely fine !

DBS is top tweet in japan at the moment. I guess their promotion worked out.

it was inevitable. people wanted NEW content, not retreaded movies

 

[Kagari]

Quality was fine for the most part. Content was to be expected following the manga... next episodes should deviate somewhat since

Spoiler

Beerus will be looking for Monaka in episode 30.

 

[Anth0ny]

I think the manga chapter coming out before the anime airs is doing nothing but killing hype for the show.

I know that's how it is in Japan for every anime adaptation of a manga but I'm not used to it damn it >_<

 

[DiipuSurotu]

To make up for it, that scene was also one of the most badass scenes in the entire DBZ run. Everything about Gogeta is cool.

Btw did you know that the French dub for his sole line of dialogue was effin' awesome? It basically goes like this:

"You don't know me. I'm neither Son Goku nor Vegeta. But I don't need a name to eliminate you."

Gogeta, people.

When I saw the film in France at the time, everyone in the cinema shouted "Gogeta LOL" after that line.

You could just ignore the manga. Remember the show will still be expanding on it since the manga is more of a promotion/outline for things to come.

I completely agree with that.

But it is, indeed, how japan runs things :/ ....

The manga has been so exceptionally exciting, it's an absolute shame because it would have redeemed the entirety of Super to have those big bombs saved up for the anime.

Now it's just "heh boring stuff since we read it until we get to the action... I guess..." and then the action looks bad I bet. hahaha

The worst part is that they don't use the anime to expand the story bits. Just like they didn't expand Freeza's training, they don't expand the cool bits from the manga that you expect an anime to fill up with cool backstory and stuff. Here it's just literally the same. Which is a good story, but disappointing from an adaptation point of view.

 

[Anteater]

last chapter in the manga has the most world building than dragon ball ever had in the last 2 decades

it's okay
