Mhm. I think someone at least tries, but whether it's Toriyama or Toei is hard to say. Like Battle of Gods (the movie) has a callback to Yo! Son Goku and uses the anime's take on King Vegeta, but on the other hand it leaves out Gregory who was in Yo! Son Goku. That's why I asked in another post if we weren't making a lot of assumptions in declaring what he would or wouldn't write or allow to be in the story. I think what it's going to come down to here is whether or not he's writing out the entire script/screenplay directly. He's credited as "Original Author, Script, & Character Design" on the movie's website. He also has that credit on Resurrection F, but he says "It’s really embarrassing to have this called a “screenplay”" because it dictated some dialogue and the general direction of the story but it wasn't so much a script because it left a lot up to Toei's staff. I haven't read that in ages but I seem to recall him admitting he just indicated where fights would happen and dumped that work on the anime staff.Marlowe89 wrote:I just don't think continuity matters as much to the parties overseeing the franchise as it does to the fans; the whole idea of branching Super off into two differently-told mediums in the first place would already call their dedication to such a concept into question, I think. As far as Toriyama seems to be concerned, he's working with two different groups independently constructing their own unique spin on his story, but it's still his story at its core. It wouldn't be surprising to me in the least if the movie doesn't acknowledge the existence of those forms, so I think that people should at least brace themselves for that possibility. Same goes for the opposite scenario, too.
In the April 29th interview with Akio Iyoku it sounded like they were going to keep the arrangement they've had up til now and that everyone worked together to make the movie happen, but it doesn't really answer that question.We can make guesses based on precedent, but ultimately we just don't know what's going to happen in that regard until they tell us (or IF they tell us), and I don't think there's any good reason for fans to be at each others' throats over this kind of speculation.
[/spoiler] or the UI/Jiren auras by hand, but it's not very practical. Toei completely re-did the aura effects for the forms we've seen and they could have easily dialed things back and used a much more simple effect, but instead they made one that's more detailed and complex than the previous two SSB auras without being as visually oppressive because CG makes it so much easier to do that.
