Kinda makes you wonder if "you need to air this shit early in the night at least partially" was part of Toei's stipulation or something

How many episodes until future trunks, i hope I wont have to wait for a year for his arc dubbed 
I cannot stand grandma Goku. Haven't been able to for over twenty years.

I guess not.
Seems like a weird way to do this. You'd think they'd want to stretch out how much DBZ they have access to by airing this stuff one at a time.
Alright.

Geekdom 101 who is a insider of Funimation said in November that Buu Saga Kai should be announced in December.
So we'll just have to wait and see if that actually happens.

The Future Trunks arc starts on episode 47, you're gonna have a big wait.
Oh, Buu Kai is confirmed now
"The Final Chapters" LOL
So it sounds like we're getting an hour of Dragonball every week.

Will we finally learn what the soul king is?
It's going to be weird when Super references events from the Buu Saga as it airs.
Sorry, but you'll need to read the book to get that info.

No one brings the ratings like Dragon Ball does.
In any case, it's good that Super is airing, but it's going to be hard for me to get past the retellings again.

New composer. Same as Super I believe.

About time.

Yup, Super even reuses a fair few tracks from Buu Kai.
Buu Kai cast listing
Colleen Clinkenbeard Android 18, like in the earlier Kai episodes (different than Super, which brings back Meredith McCoy)
I think the rest is as expected?

Maybe Kai will get some (not many) to realise Buu arc is better in a lot of ways lol
The music itself isn't better but, simply from the fact it was actually composed for the series, it's a lot better.

Trunks has the wrong actor listed, they list Eric Vale when that's just adult Trunks.
Laura Baily should be Trunks in Buu Kai, however she is not in Super.
That list has a lot of Cell arc characters in it, for whatever reason. And yeah, Kid Trunks isn't listed.

So let's talk about something here for a moment.
The 11:30 and 12:00 slots are pretty much locked until March 2018. Samurai Jack is expected to arrive sometime in March of 2017.
Now, this brings up the question: WHERE will it air?
The only likely option is expanding the block to 11:00 for Jack.

Even I managed to get used to Grandma Goku.
12:30 and move everything back.
I can see that happening. I don't see them pushing Dragon Ball back or putting Jack in a late slot.

is dbs good
Like, really, for people who's nostalgia for DBZ is there, but not really strong, for people who have watched various other fighting shonens since DBZ and have become rather bored with DBZ's transformations and beam attacks and fast punch and kick loops.
Does it stand up to "modern standards"? Is it good compared to everything else on the market, besides being connected to a nostalgic/historically important property?
Has Dragon Ball evolved since last it was being made?

My best answer;
Your mileage may vary.
People's opinions on the series range from it being shit to it being a great show, so you'll just have to see how you feel about the show. It is a very different show than Z though with a fairly large emphasis on humor.

So two Dragon Ball series at the same time? I knew it was a possibility but I didn't expect that to be the case going forward. Going to be somewhat jarring hearing Kid Trunks and Android 18's voices changing between shows.
Yes.
Have you seen the recent movies? That's the type of tone Super goes for. It's extremely goofy and a lot less serious than DBZ was, and feels closer to Dragon Ball than DBZ in that regard (though it still has the insane escalating power levels of DBZ and it has its serious moments from time to time)
I personally really loved the more goofy tone that Battle of Gods brought back. It does hold up more than DBZ does IMO.
