"Dragon Ball Super" Series Official Announcement & Discussion Thread

[DBS916]

The plot of this episode seems to be pretty fun [spoiler]Goku working as a body guard [/spoiler]

I wonder if Vegeta will go with his wife to this event, I doubt it

Imagine Vegeta wearing a suit and tie to the event if he did go with Bulma.

Nice interview:

Haven't seen it on this forum, this looks like Akira Toriyama's character design for Black Super Saiyan Rose, do you know what's written on it?

What's the source for that picture?

I have no idea, a guy on reddit sent me it but still hasn't told me where he found it. He also did a color change on the SSJ hair and made them classic yellow, I could have trolled many people if I posted that one

[Avery]

So the ahoge was actually a part of Toriyama's design. Nice.

Well he gave Trunks one or two as well.

More information about the Arale episode: http://www.animenewsnetwork.com/news/20 ... er/.109070

The episode will center on an event called the "World Invention Award," which honors the best innovations in the world. The greatest scientists, including Bulma, gather for the ceremony. Goku is working part-time as a security guard in the event, and Satan is presenting the award. The award goes to Senbei Norimaki of Penguin Town. As Norimaki is presenting his invention, Dr. Mashirito attacks. Frustrated that he was not invited to the ceremony, he interrupts the proceedings, and for some reason Arale and Gatchan are at his side.

Super is so perfect in slice of life episodes. This episode will be just another one to add in that list. 100% hyped!

Lol i can't wait

I bet that he will refuse to go, but it will be fun if Bulma pushes him to go with her

Gokû gets a new job as a bodyguard? Nice. I hope he enjoys it more than he did his gardening job. (I guess since it's winter it'd be too cold to garden anyway).

I can't wait to see this! Now, if only that upcoming episode focused on Hit (attempting to?) assassinating Goku could be confirmed to be a full story arc rather than a filler one-off, I'll say that DBS has officially sent my hype through the roof.

"Goku vs Arale" is the one after this week's "Reviving Kaio" episode, right? I'm gonna love that one.

The recent talk about Black's concept art made me curious about something: what other concept art has Toriyama drawn for Super/the recent movies?

[Araki]

I can see our Future Trunks and Mai deciding to stay away from their duplicates to not interfiere with their lives.

That was my impression too. I mean, Bulma even gave them food and other stuff they may need. I think they were intending to live a low profile life there.

[Anime Kitten]

I think they were intending to live a low profile life there.

I'm not sure I can agree with this, because there would be no point to going back if they can't even live with their friends. With how saddened they were (especially Mai), there would be no way they'd avoid making themselves known. They'd have been better off staying in the present if that were the case.

[Sandubadear]

What happened to Goku's work in the field? Was the harvest so small that he had to get more money with another job?

I love that chapter from Dr Slump where Senbei, Arale, and some other people from his town went to the big city and became fascinated with it because they're country bumpkins. I want this to happen in this episode as well.

We've gotten SSGSS Goku, SSGSS Vegeta and Golden Freeza (Think we also got Tagoma and Sorbet not sure). Now Goku Black. All the U6 team and Monaka, I think Beerus and Whis too not too sure if we got SSG Goku from him or not.

(Oh and obviously Jaco from the Manga).

I think we also got Toriyama's drawing of Zamasu and Future Mai.

I think we got art for everybody in Battle of Gods and Resurrection 'F', including Tagoma, Sorbet, and even Shisami. Not sure 'bout SS God.

Toriyama designed SSJGod for BoG, all the new outfits and Beerus and Whis. Goku and Vegeta's F outfits, Golden Freeza, Sorbet, Tagoma and Gohan. Champa, Vados and the Universe 6 contestants. Future Trunks (both outfits), Mai (both outfits), Black and Zamasu. Minaka, Gowasu and Merged Zamasu may have been designed by him as well but I'm not sure.

With how saddened they were (especially Mai), there would be no way they'd avoid making themselves known. They'd have been better off staying in the present if that were the case.

Mai and her companions only came together because of Black, so the alternate Mai probably never even met most of those people. Even if "our" Mai happens to come across some of them, it's not like that's gonna affect the life of the other Mai, and she'll have to build a new and entirely different relationship with her old friends that never gathered in that timeline. I mean, it's not like there's a resistance there just waiting for her. Maybe the fact she'll know they're still alive and well there is enough, while hoping to see some of them again.

[nite_jay]

I'm pretty sure AT designed almost everyone in the movies and all of the new characters in Super. Correct me if I'm wrong, though.

[Baggie_Saiyan]

I'm under the impression that he's designed pretty much everything I thought FreddleFrooby was just asking about what's been released to us. From this arc I think Zamasu and his merged (waiting to see how it looks in the actual Manga, Toyo may have just used a beta design for the poster) form along with Mai are still unreleased to us, pretty sure the other released designs were just from Mr. Yamamuro.
