I hope we get a databook/guidebook for Super like we did for GT. Just something to fill in the gaps like what Super Saiyan Rage really is, how God ki works and the amount detail there is Toriyama's plot outline.

I think we will whenever there's a timeskip. If it's after the current arc then it'll cover BOG up to now.
I'd like to see interviews, unused ideas and designs & why things are different between the anime and manga. I'd also like to see Toriyama's scripts for these arcs.
July 9th 2018 will be remembered as the day Broly became canon.

Are you talking about the Perfect Files?
Yes, I am. I wouldn't mind a tidbit book like that in the future. Just to clear things up.

Good luck explaining Trunks' strength to anyone who writes it.
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.

Spoiler:
Absolute Zamasu(my name for their fusion) wins. He fulfils his utopia and dwells in his loneliness(x amount of time for this to happen). He starts to doubt of his achievements, Goku's body influences him to seek out challenges but there's nothing. Perfection becomes a curse. Absolute Zamasu starts to dread his existence and presents himself to the Omni-King, detailing on his actions.
Using his powers the Omni-King restores everything to the moment before Goku and Vegeta perish, humanity's last barrier. Zamasu concedes. He ask for forgiveness(mainly to Goku, Gowasu and Trunks) and understands that his justice isn't justice at all. He asks for judgement and the Omni-King delivers.
Trunks is forced never to travel in time ever again, all the time-machines are destroyed.
If we do Tenshinhan will be mentioned to be decendant of Aliens like he was in the Daizenshuu. And in this day and age it wont be hidden from American audiences.

I know that. But I'd like to know a bit more detail. Like what makes Future Trunks SSJR transformation such a special case where he can jump from SSJ2 tier to nearly SSJB tier.

I want to know the reason his regular SS is Blue tier in 57 then randomly drops in everything afterward.

I just hand wave that as Future Trunks, in the heat of the moment, being able to temporarily tap into some of his SSJR power, and then he later gained full access of all of the SSJR power later by pulling a Vegeta and just brute forcing his way into a mutated SSJ form that led to his strength spiking exponentially.

That's a 20 minute long heat of the moment, sure took awhile. Conveniently kicked it when Black's Kamehameha should've vaporized him too

It was about 10 minutes, to be fair. That still counts as "temporary".
