Dragon Ball Super |OT9| Genki-Drama

Finally home so I can get some gifs of these episodes.

lol @ jiren
 
More than likely he's going to give him some of his energy to help him get back to his feet--a callback to their battle on Namek but with the roles reversed.
Ah that makes sense I had forgotten! I was worried he was going to just straight up murder Goku and we'd have to rely on Vegeta to save the day. Seems like the prince of all saiyans hasn't done shit this arc.
 
To be fair, ratings probably aren't the end all be all. I won't say they don't matter, but selling merch is honestly probably more important.
 
The wish is for the Earth Dragon Balls. He will wish himself back not knowing he can't make the same wish twice.

The deal WAS for the Earth Dragon Balls. Frieza's conditions are now far bigger. I think Frieza will secretly modify that deal with Goku off screen while we are being shown Hit and Jiren.

In hindsight, the fact that Goku wouldn't have enough time to make the Genki Dama is something he should probably consider before he starts making the Genki Dama.

I like how he starts forming it, and then goes, "This was a bad idea."

lmao, maybe he didn't expect so much energy

does goku put his own genki into the ball too?
 
Why is Op higher than dragon ball? 22 minutes of that special was full trash and rehash. These ratings are bogus when it comes to quality apparently
That's not something people knew going in. OP still did much worse than usual as well.
While the sub spanish version in Youtube has 7.3 millions views...

A 360p version with shit subs lol

I'm sure the simulcast did amazingly well and it's probably doing great in DVR ratings and digital streaming in Japan.

Just made a video going over the importance of new transformations in Dragon Ball. Had a lot of fun making it, and I've pretty much come to the conclusion that we'll be seeing a new form of Goku in every arc of Dragon Ball going forward:


Damn, the Super special only got a live rating of 3.5, guess Kamen Rider and Super Sentai's new timeslot on has fucked Super and OP's ratings up.

Woah, what happened with Kamen Rider and Super Sentai?

I didn't think the scheduling of other shows would have much of an effect on Dragon Ball and One Piece, of all shows.

this is just insanity, but people are clearly fine with low quality stuff as long as it's free.

I get tagged a lot in instagram posts that show clips from super. people like "yoooo goku has a new form!!!!" and i'm like... bruh i watched that shit live on a saturday night, do you even know the level of nerd you're dealing with here.

Starting from last week (coinciding with the One Piece special), Kamen Rider is airing at 9am (running against DB Super) and Super Sentai is airing at 9:30am (running against One Piece). Previously Rider and Sentai aired before both shows so they weren't competing directly for ratings.

That was obvious as of ROF. Originally though it was going to be every movie, to every year. Now to every arc.

It's the same target audience.

So ratings are done before the show?

It's the number of people watching the shows, not the quality
 
One Piece's special ended up doing amazingly well in DVR ratings, Super's probably did too. I doubt many people are going to just stop watching Super and OP because of Kamen Rider and Super Sentai, they'll just watch them later via DVR or a streaming service.

What was on Tv Asahi at those times before? And did Sentai do any better in the ratings I know the point of the move is that it's been in the dumpster for years.

Originally I thought the move would just kill sentai and Rider off forever but it looks like all 4 shows are affected, great.

As of the begining of the month Super Sentai and Kamen Rider air and the same time as Super and OP.

oh jeez what the hell

why would they want to directly compete with two other popular children's shows? Isn't it all Toei? not sure what anyone gains from changing the time slots, unless they were forced to?

That would be pretty awful actually.

It's happening :)

The way kaioken SSB was just a kinda useless 5 second thing thrown in there during the 1 hour special... that'll be ultra instinct next arc!

It's my understanding that it's the network (tv asashi) who make that decision.

You're giving me really bad flashbacks to GT right now...

Toei doesn't pick their timeslots, the TV stations do. TV Asashi probably wanted to take viewers from Fuji TV with the move.
I don't see Sentai or Kamen Rider on the top 10 for it's genre, so both shows probably hurt eachother.

Probably expected his best buddy to tag in while he powers up.

If the arcs continue this long I can see every single one having new transformations.

They were forced to, yeah. Their old timeslot alongside some even earlier ones were taken by a news program with a presenter Tv Asahi wanted to push.
 
It was likely x20 from the get go.

The other amazing shot is just him slamming fists into Jiren as Super Saiyan God and them staring at each other

I didn't think it was until he got back up on the stage and was like "where u goin'"

I left home again but I'll get those gifs once I get back.

Damn, TV Asashi giving no fucks, eh? brutal.



stupid kids, stop watching that kiddy power rangers crap! dragon ball is matoor! that show has blood, SWEARING and people DIE
 
So what's the real chance of Fuji TV moving One Piece and Super to another time? It was my understanding that they're currently in pretty coveted timeslots.

Kamen Rider has more of all those things than Super.
