There is apparently another Dragon Ball panel later but this was the main one so not getting my hopes up anything else will be announced.


It really was a whole lot of nothing!

What a worthless panel. Just like everything else nowadays. Oh how i miss 2013 when Battle of Gods was in the works.. way more information! They didn’t even show any movie CLIPS this time before the movie came out.

It truly is dissapointment after dissapointment.

Good. Sounds like he's tired of it as well.

For gosh's sake, let the man rest from DB. He was supposed to have moved on from this franchise over 20 years ago.

It's not wrong to say the general demographic and audience of Dragon Ball is primarily adolescent boys, but I do sort of take issue with implying that only they can inherently possess the state of mind that allows them to enjoy the series for what it is. Besides the fact that it's not inherent at all to males or children to enjoy high-flying action and likable characters, there are plenty of reasons to watch or like the series besides what it's marketed and designed around.

Though honestly, with this wording it may just be Toriyama being self-deprecatory of himself and the series. He's certainly no stranger to making fun of Dragon Ball OR saying sexist things.

Also lol@ "le american sjws". You are completely out of touch. If you're so amazingly fragile that you need to identify a somewhat sexist statement immediately with insulting the people simply pointing it out, before it even happens, you need to get a life.

Probably he does not understand old woman neither ( just like me ), age doesn’t matter
Half a joke half true , I love them :D
Anyways , doing an announcement of the anime series coming back now is not a clever move with the movie just airing .. they can do it in a month with the same expected April begging...

that's great. Some people do see problems with them, so hey, we just can't all agree on everything.

I took that comment from Toriyama as a little joke and I find it funny if someone will get triggered by it.

Or maybe— just a wild-ass thought here— Super is not coming back in 2019.

That there's a Dragon Ball series that has a chance of returning to air is a privilege that was not afforded to fans even five years ago. And now we're back to the "New Dragon Ball Series 20XX?!" phase that we were in before Super was (quite suddenly) announced, except this time everyone is absolutely sure we're getting a continuation.
It's entirely possible that the only thing we'll get are new movies every 2 years and more of the manga.

It's still possible we'll get a continuation of Super or a new series, but this whole spiel that "it's coming back in April; Kitaro will only have 51 episode; secret insiders confirmed this" doesn't dredge up a lot of optimism. Actually, for AnimeAjay and Geekdom101, I actually have one thing to say: be careful with these things. Toei is a strange company who seems averse to the concept of making money at times, and they're willing to stomp on fan projects and hosting high-level tournaments for games if it means it threatens their ability to immediately profit.
They might see things like spoilers as threats to their bottom line, even though it just builds hype. As a result of spoiling the Broly movie, I wouldn't be surprised if Toei's idea of recourse was to find the leakers and then threaten their livelihoods if they didn't seed them with false information about "Super's triumphant return" just to sow distrust and teach YouTubers a lesson.

If it were another company, this would just be a silly conspiracy theory. But Toei's crazy enough to try something like that.

Lol nah it was a fuck a tons manga, movies promotiona, and a little DBSH, that about it... but there was a message from Toryiama himself said "let meet again on my next work" and other wall of text.

Sounds like the Jump Festa panel was a huge waste of time. Nothing interesting concerning Super was announced.

Man, if that comment shows that he is out of touch with young women, then so must I be. Very rarely will you meet a girl that likes these type of shows for the same reason a boy normally does.
"Dragon Ball once became a thing of the past to me, but after that, I got angry about the live action movie, re-wrote an entire movie script, and now I'm complaining about the quality of the new TV anime. It seems Dragon Ball has grown on me so much that I can't leave it alone." - Akira Toriyama on Dragon Ball Super

Debatable, but wow do I not want to go into that debate.

But yeah, as far as the comment is concerned, it's fairly harmless. Someone already said in a different thread that Dragon Ball actually has one of the smaller female fandoms compared the other modern shonen titles (percentage wise), so this is what they may have been referring to.

Anyway, I'm also disappointed we got no announcement for a new series, but as it's been already stated, we weren't actually promised anything. What makes this difficult though is that right now we have nothing to look forward to. When Super ended we had the movie. The manga is all this fandom has right now and it's not available for everyone, not to mention that it's not everyone's cup of tea.
