And we were all thinking "Surpass SSG" meant SSGSS :|. This is so disappointing, next episode would be the perfect place to stop the fight.

Not all.

Saiyan beyond God could also mean the surpassing of Super Saiyan God's actual level. And, to me, that is where we are going now.

Herms, the image says something about episodes 14, 15 and 16, too (apparently). Is there anything worth noting?

Just their episode titles, which have already been translated. 14: "Conclusion! The Battle of Gods!!", 15: "Satan, Cause a Miracle!", 16: "Vegeta Becomes a Pupil!!"
Kanzenshuu: Is that place still around?

Looks like it'll end in episode 14, then.

Not sure how they'd be able to extend the fight any longer, but at least I hope they include Goku's pride conversation now.

Super God-jin Beerus confirmed.

Kind of surprising that the Beerus vs Gokuu fight is being stretched out even more, all the way to episode 14 (though maybe it could end early in that episode and the rest could be the aftermath). Was looking forward to seeing new content within the next couple weeks, but guess we'll just have to be patient a while longer.

The titles for 15 and 16 do promise something new, at least, even if they might be filler. Especially looking forward to the Vegeta becoming a Pupil episode. If it involves him demanding to train under Whis with Gokuu, I could see it bringing much needed hilarity :D

At the very least is seems like we're getting a bridge arc of some sort. My guess is these first two cours will be considered an 'era' unto themselves, sort of like how the Saiyan and Namek arcs are an era and the Universe Six arc will begin a new 'era' or be its own standalone era, like the Artificial Humans arc was.

Could they have mixed it up? Certainly seems to be the case..

I think we're getting a prelude arc to RoF like the first three episodes

I can't wait for episode 16! X3

Gokû jokingly calling him "Vegeta-senpai."; Whis teaching them in a classroom; Vegeta taking instruction from anybody for the first time.

I'm still hoping Whis makes them room together in a college dorm-like situation.

By making more food jokes, more Pilaf scenes, and cutting to characters talking about Goku and Beerus fighting for 10 minutes.

Nah he'll be a green recolour of Beerus called Super Beerus Super. It will be the most ground breaking original design since SSGSS.

Well after reading the translated titles, it looks like BoG saga might continue for one more episode. And waiting for that Vegeta episode :v

If the next Vegeta episode is anything like episode 2 or 6, it'll be worth the wait for me. Especially since he'll have Gokû to bounce off of this time. With Bulma he can just Piccolo-out ("Hn.", "Hmph.") but he really wakes up when it comes to "Kakarrotto".

I'm thinking that "Surpass Super Saiyan God!" is referring to Saiyan Beyond God, it matches the name, and that's basically what Goku was by the end of BoG (his base post-SSJG was SBG, and his SSJ was like a proto-SSGSS).

Hmm, maybe they'll even replace him going regular SSJ in the 'Hero' scene with him going SSGSS since it now exists as a concept but didn't when BoG came out?

Oh, and Beerus' "transformation" or whatever, that's probably a further power-up, like to 70% or whatever.

I'm a bit surprised that the BOG arc is gonna last little longer than I thought it would originally end.

Eww, another BOG episode :?
At least they could explain why Pilaf Gang are younger, instead of always going back to bulma airship scenes. Champa/Whis Waifu finally appear would be great too.
I just hope that the battle with Freeza this time don't take 20+ episodes.

How will episode 12 end?! With Beerus saying he will start fight seriously again?!

This is likely. It would be stupid to bring the blue form already. Two different forms one after another is not a good idea. But stupidest things already happened before...

Given the title, and the examples of previous episodes and their titles, #12 will end with the Kaioshin wanting to call off the battle while Goku and Beerus continue to punch each other in the face. The ED may very well start playing straight from an terrified look on Elder Kaioshin's face.

Eh, given that one of those two forms is basically just the other one but less unstable, it's much more likely than with any other combination of forms (not to mention two similar forms in rapid succession has happened before, SSJ grades 2 and 3)...quite possibly won't happen though, it might just be golden SSJ with divine ki and then SSGSS comes later as a way of doing that more reliably.
