I don't think most of us with realistic expectations were expecting anything more than a logo, and a maybe some hero character splash art, before the end of the month anyway. Most bets were on June for anything significant, while willing to be surprised if they did anything unexpected.

Either this project was a very recent idea and they don't actually have much to reveal yet, or they have a specific marketing strategy for where and when they plan to reveal new info.

Since Super is most likely going to premiere July 5th, I'll be shocked if we don't have new info revealed during the first week of June, with promos airing during the June 7th Kai.

Terrible person double posting.

Official Twitter's teasing us with the storyboard for the ED, but not actually showing anything. I wonder how far along in production it is.

That is a tease! >~<
Well, good to know they're working on it at least. I am happy that we get an ED. One Piece hasn't had one for years.

Re: character designer

What does everyone think? Will we get somebody new, or will it just be more Yamamuro?
If it does somehow end up being someone new, what type of style do you think they'll go for?

Man, I can't handle that kind of teasing. Just give us a logo already! :(

It has to be Yamamuro, no one else can do it after so long (well, of course they could, but it would be strange). One Piece has recently changed it's ending - but before that, it hadn't for some time.

The only thing that matters is getting EOZ Goten, everything else design-wise is secondary :cry:

I do like EoZ Goten's design. EoZ Pan's too.

If this ŕeally does pick up where Kai leaves off I'm sure you'll get him.

Probably not far given there is no drawing on the page shown. Then again it could just be a cover page.

Sorry but, What is ED? :?


Kei, I see the onomatopoeia but can't see Goku at the end. :crazy:

"ED" refers to an "ending" while "OP" refers to an "opening".

It would be funny if it's actually adult Goku turned back into a child by a wish.

Here's a slightly clearer example of Goku. It's almost definitely him:

Ain't getting my hopes up yet, Toriyama can't be trusted with Goten designs, the human perfection in animated form in EOZ was followed just few months later with the GT Goten abomination :problem:

Probably nothing. One of the Kai endings has a still picture of young/child goku in it, so...

I made this myself, but Ajay's one explains it better. It's obviously Kid Goku.
