Eh, i think people who get so nervous over a logo wil end up dissatisfied no matter what Super does. There will always be a reason to pick it apart.

Re: Official Announcement Thread & Discussion

The story will probably be planned out but it's pretty obvious based on staff arrangements on their other series that production on the series only began during Spring 2015. We have no definite way of knowing when exactly it started. Chioka, for instance, might have storyboarded for an One Piece ep...

A golf tournament preempts Go!Pri on June 21st, but said Kai (which airs right after Go!Pri) is still supposed to air that day.

Re: Official Announcement Thread & Discussion

I just checked the May schedule for Naruto Shippuuden . It included the episode title and staff for Episode #415 (04 June 2015), so there is definitely a chance for the first week of July to be covered in this issue. I think Newtype usually brings advanced information from the following month of ru...

Re: Official Announcement Thread & Discussion

I'm worried my days of having happy, hummable Dragon Ball themes are long gone. I think that's a problem with anime soundtracks these days. Most aren't memorable, and the few which stand out are usually the ones that try something different or stylish. I'm on the fence about Sumitomo. His work in B...

Re: Official Announcement Thread & Discussion

This is an original story being made from scratch. Unless this ends up being a HUGE hit, I doubt we'll see more than 60/70 episodes. It won't go over 26. If it is a gigantic hit, they'll just make another season in 1 year. That's not how Sunday morning anime works. If there is any set amount of epi...

Yeah, anime industry doesn't work like that and Dragon Ball is not special. It kinda is. But yea, I doubt Toei is planning for anything more than 26 episodes or so from the get-go. They may decide to do more (not as in a second season, but just continuing to push forth episodes) depending on views ...

What do you think of his thoughts on Goku&Vegeta ? http://www.reddit.com/r/dbz/comments/378z9x/update_sean_schemmels_theory_on_dragonball_super/ That would go against Goku's character. http://i.imgur.com/uPih8Ud.jpg Yeah, Goku would never "take over as a god". But then again, Sean Sch...

If it took place after RoF, I'd imagine they would say that it follows the aftermath of their battle with Golden Freeza. But like I said, it could just be poorly worded and mean nothing at all. Eh, i don't think they would ever refer to Freeza as "Golden Freeza" in a press release, the sa...

Nah, i doubt Freeza is gonna do more than a cameo or show up in a recap at the beginning.

You think the plot will be too kid friendly because is going to be on sunday mornings? Do we have any other example of series at that time-slot? Kai was supposed to be there, right?

Re: Official Announcement Thread & Discussion

It's a big deal in that they're hoping to make a lot of money off a piece of crap quickly put together in two or three months. Otherwise, this isn't something they're planning on actually being a well-made (or even a well-scheduled) work of art. I don't know how you can talk with so much certainty ...

Re: Choose the 3 main characters of Dragon Ball Super

I'd like to see Goku, Goten and Trunks headlining the show, especially teenage or even slightly older versions of the kids.
Leave Vegeta making occasional but important appearances. I think he works better this way.

Re: Official Announcement Thread & Discussion

If Dragon Ball Super was that big a deal for the production committee there probably would have been more time placed into the series before announcing it for a season when they'll already be supremely busy working on a half dozen other series. Or, you know, they could've been waiting for after FnF...

Re: Resurrection F Box Office - ¥3.28 billion ($29.2 million

I wonder what being further away from the goal means for future DBZ movies. Even smaller budgets? Yeah, FnF is beating by more than three times the most successful Pretty Cure movie (Precure is huge and its movies never reached 1 billion) and it's showing to be Toei's biggest anime movie not named ...
