With the launch of the April 2014 issue of V-Jump providing the first official confirmation of Dragon Ball Kai‘s continuation into the Majin Boo story arc, the official Japanese website has also been updated! As of right now it is simply a splash page, with the previous iteration still available.
Dragon Ball Kai, the “refreshed” version of the Dragon Ball Z TV series originally created for its 20th anniversary in 2009, officially kicks off into a new era 06 April 2014 in Japan on Fuji TV at 9:00 a.m. It will be reclaiming its spot in the “Dream 9” block — taking it back from Toriko — alongside One Piece.

I wish this happened in North American television. “Yeah, the ratings were terrible, but the ratings for the show we replaced them with were even worse, so we’re bringing the first show back.”
SERÁ QUE TEREMOS DRAGON BALL Z KAI SAGA MAJIN BOO NO BRASIL ???? ❓ ❓ ❓ ❓ ❓ ❓ ❓ ❓ ❓
Não está confirmada ainda. Falar em Inglês sobre este site, por favor.
haha
@Lance Freeman,
Kai actually had decent ratings; it just completely failed to convince people to buy anything. Merch sales dropped during its run.

Well now I do! Hooray for new (?) things! Site looks great 🙂
Hopefully this boosts the franchise, rather than…the alternative.
@Lance Freeman,
I’m pretty sure the show was ranked in the top ten typically in regards to ratings in its time block.
The problem was that it’s all about merchandising in Japan, and the stuff wasn’t selling.
There sure were a lot of pink characters in Buu saga.
