No, Yamamuro? This sounds almost too good to believe. Consider me really hyped for the movie! :D

Comment from Toriyama about the movie, taken from the official site: https://imgur.com/a/Q6nOe
I kind of wonder if this might feature Sadala if it's talking about Frieza and the Saiyans. We never really did find out how he met them and he was a big factor in their development and one of the key differences between the two Universes.

Nah. We know that Toriyama is designing characters for the movie, which wouldn't be necessary for an abridged retelling of Goku's history.

Hopefully they don't ruin Freeza and the Saiyan lore. Again.

Considering Toriyama's track record for filling in lore stuff, all I can say is sweet virgin Mary we're fucked!
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.

Yamoshi was an alias Bardock used after he jumps through time again.

So I suppose this means the story won't cover Yamoshi that heavily, or at all, if Freeza is mentioned first and foremost. Also, could this hint at Freeza sticking around?

I'm hyped.... Wowza.... :D

Also confirmed to be after ToP? Interesting.

Knew it would use DBS moniker. It's toooo strong a brand name right now.

Where on the poster does it give this info?
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)

Being written by Toriyama makes canon by default until he isn't the head writer anymore. If it isn't written by Toriyama, it isn't canon.
Also don't remember Toriyama or Toei making this statement. Canon is subjective, some may consider only the original manga and others Super, I prefer to consider both until some of them declare what is part of DB main continuity officially.

The design is good, but his face and hands looks too cartoony for my taste.

That would be a terrible choice, I hope they don't do that.

Agreed. Man, I hated Minus and I almost sure there will be references to it.

It's probably Google Translating being a turd. It says Shintani in this tweet that Funimation posted

This is the credits image pulling directly from the official website:

And in case y'all missed it, we re-translated the entire Toriyama comment because the official English version glosses over some stuff.

The promo art look fantastic, I'm looking forward watching this.
    A side note, will toyotaro draw the promo manga or will it be someone else. I want someone new this time because I don't want Toyotaro rushing the Top for this.
