So Ajay has posted some character designs from the Black arc. This has brought it to my attention:

The character design of Future Trunks literally was made two frickin' weeks after the arc's debut. Talkin' about messed up production...

Wait.. two weeks after or before ? Also, how do you know this ?

I made a bet with Alee9977 that Vegeta won't be beaten quickly by an opponent. If I lose, I switch my avatar to Vegeta getting beat by hit. If I win, he switches it to Vegeta holding Black by his hair. This will last a month.

Goku Black's design was done may 17th, 3 weeks BEFORE the arc's debut.

The dates are next to 'Last Updated', so it's not indicative of anything to do with when it was first finished. There are designs from Battle of Gods that were 'last updated' in 2015, yet display absolutely no differences from ones marked back in 2013.

Might just be an auto-generated thing based on some arbitrary changes to the file. Don't read too much into it.

How did they decide to draw him before the designs came out then ?

One thing I've noticed about the new arc is that the designs are mostly Toyotaro. The most Toriyama ish design is for the yellow rat. So Toyotaro is slowly starting to take over, at least in character designs.
Feel free to correct me if I say something wrong.

It is hard to believe the design itself was made two weeks after the arc's start, we got really good shots of Trunks in the first episode.

Maybe it was because of the high number of new characters in this arc, I'm pretty sure we will even see characters made only by Yamamuro

It was actually Animage, but they already missed a supervisor on episode 79 and with Shimanuki being the only listed supervisor for 81 it's entirely possible they missed someone there too.

Yeah, there's zero chance they started the arc without character designs. The June 18th date was likely just the last time Yamamuro touched up the art or added a new face to it.
Anyways, Yamamuro's Trunks expressions are surprisingly solid, still off on some of them though.


I hope the image we get of episode 81 in the next 24 hours or so is very clearly a specific artist like Karasawa.

What image?
When someone tells you, "Don't present your opinion as fact," what they're actually saying is, "Don't present your opinion with any conviction. Because I don't like your opinion, and I want to be able to dismiss it as easily as possible." Don't fall for it.

Talking about the bad schedule, the Gods still helped us with 3/4 weeks off during FT Trunks arc run to help the production. Bless them. :lol:

Though I believe they helped the production of the mid-Black arc, I don't think they particularly mattered in the long run sadly.

Without those weeks off I doubt episode 66 would have turned out as good as it did and all the off bits of the latter portion of the arc probably would have looked worse.
Every week off helps.
