Cell is mainly popular in the West, not Japan. That's why Cell doesn't seem to get much coverage and merchandise in things like Dragonball Heroes. Toei and Bandai doesn't seem to care much about what oversees DB fans like, so I doubt they wold bring back Cell.

Cooler on the other hand has a high chance of coming to canon. He's already getting much spotlight in DB Heroes and he always had big Japanese fanbase.

They did say the dragon ball room takes into account the international market so the potential is there, even if it's not as high as someone popular in Japan.

I'm glad the manga is ending soon, so we can direct our attention to this movie until the second trailer release.

What are you talking about? The manga is going to adapt the Broly movie and very likely will continue the story
I called it that Gogeta, Bardock, and something Broly related would be in the movie before it was even announced that it was a Broly movie. 8)

If there was anything it would've leaked a few days ago with everything else. I'm not surprised as there are still 3 months worth of V-Jump they can use so it makes sense to spread things out and line them up with the movie's release date. We'll for sure get something next month.

They just published some Broly designs we had already seen. Nothing new in it, unfortunately. They still hold back Golden Freeza’s full design, God Vegeta’s, Vegeta in his Buu arc clothes, front shots of Blue Goku and God Goku and Bulma full designs for some reason.

Bold new direction yet can't be arsed to use a song from Super but fall back on Cha-La yet again.

I don't think Cha-La's going to be the theme, though. In Herms' tweet, Anyumu Yahaba says that it's an instrumental from Sumitomo just with the chorus. I'm guessing it's music for the title of the film, similar to how Battle of Gods and Resurrection 'F's titles had Cha-La playing in the background just with the chorus.

My point stands: it's a Super film, make music for it and leave Z shit behind. But that's a moot point since Broly is the focus this time around so any real attempt at a new direction was dead a long time ago. Fuck, might as well fire Sumitomo and just recycle Kikuchi for extra pandering points.

And before someone throws the ever stupid "you haven't seen the film yet!" argument, if your movie is bringing back a raging moron from the past, says it's doing something different with him then spends the entire big reveal trailer showing him acting like the exact same raging moron of the past, your message has less credibility than EAs.

I'm fully aware of how low people's standards are for Dragon Ball.

My guess:

September: The rest of the DB cast that are in the film.
October: More details on the god forms and Golden Freeza.
November: The big reveal of the mystery characters, with designs and screenshots from the film.
December: Since the film would have already opened at this point probably more designs or just talking about spoilers.

Leaks aside SSGSS Goku didn't get formally revealed until basically a week before the film but that was in Weekly Jump I don't think we've had a big reveal since then in that magazine? But since the Ichiban Kuji is scheduled for beginning of December means they're not gonna cut the big reveal close this time unfortunately. With still no news about the film in the UK I am not sure it's worth me avoiding stuff for the movie, hopefully Toei Europe pull their finger out soon...

Wouldn't it make more sense to save the mystery characters for December after the movie opens ? I assume spoiling everything will cost them some people not rushing out to see it which will hurt its box office numbers.

Judging by the way I've seen lots of anime movies blatantly spoil events I think it's fair to say Japan doesn't care about this stuff the way we do.

I'm always up for new music, so the possibility of just more Cha-La is disappointing. It'd be one less music track for me to buy. Also doesn't help that I've never been that big on the song in the first place.

I'll hope it's only for the soundtrack and not the actual opening theme.

Logically one would assume so, but unfortunately the Ichiban Kuji that contains the two new "super secret" characters is scheduled for early December... which means they will have to be formally revealed before hand. Bandai Spirits have revealed their full December Ichiban Kuji schedule and Dragon Ball is one of the first to be released, likely 8th December since 1st I feel is too early.

Japan loves spoiling crap, look at mastered UI couldn't help themselves but to ruin it just before March in Feb's Vjump so that is why I think they'll do the same for this movie and ruin the big secret characters in November's Vjump.

Spoiling it in November I'm fine with. It's not like weekly series where I can watch it from home. You gotta go to a theater for this.

Look at it like this. If they reveal Gogeta Blue, that will just make people HAVE to pre-order their tickets.

But i think ur wrong on the December thing. Does ANYBODY remember JUMP FESTA!!? You know, the event where the biggest Dragon Ball news is revealed most of the time?

I fully expect either an announcement of DBS coming back, a trailer advertising the next arc in the manga (as I'm sure it will continue after adapting the Broly movie), or whatever else is up next for the DB series as a whole. And the V-Jump scan will probably cover stuff about that

I forgot about it. It would be the prefect place to announce the anime's return as the movie will just be coming out so they'll keep people on the hype train.
