Hopefully he's trained by someone
That could end up being the next villain.

It feels like a KIDNEYPUNCH.


In any case... Goku, I'm dissapointed. Master Roshi taught you how to tilt the earth with YOUR BARE HANDS. Tsk, tsk.
Check out Journey's End, a short story of Goku and Vegeta's final days. "Time is running out for the last two Saiyans"

If I wasn't Goku, then of course not. But we are speaking about Goku here, so I am not sure :D

He almost got Videl killed in Battle of Gods tho.

Gokû is so depressed and sleepy farming, it's like "aww/wants to hug". But then he doesn't really learn a lesson about work because Mark is a cool guy who gives him that money, so it's like hmm. But then what job could Gokû do? Construction?
Also didn't notice how old and beaten up that tractor was at first. Gokû just wants to train, couldn't he get a job at the tournament grounds? He'd at least be happier there I think, not that it matters now that the money problem is solved. ^^;

Why are people so upset if they change the movies? It's literally just a different version, it's nothing new, especially if it turns out better. How many people out there are complaining that History of Trunks was changed from the manga chapter?

And people are assuming the whole movie will be ignored based on such a minor detail of how many years he was asleep before the events of the movie? There are worse "contradictions" within the manga.

100 episodes, hmm, not bad, hope they don't rush nor take it slow.

Also raws are out, loved the first chapter and I'm continuing to love that this is pre-BoG.

After meeting with the God of Destruction Beerus, awakened from a very long sleep, and after the Resurrection of Frieza, a more mysterious character comes to disturb the peace on Earth in this new Dragon Ball series!
Year : 2015
Episodes : 100
Kind : Action/Aventure
Kind : Comedy
That sure is what it says, but it's a bit of a round number, isn't it? It sounds a little too 'perfect' for me, so I'm leaning towards it being an estimate. Still, 100 episodes! :thumbup:

Yeah, it just means they're planning for a minimum of two years. Could be 97, 98, 102 episodes..

Likewise I like the idea of just changing some animations and fight scenes and fixing some stuffs to understand it more.

AND YAY FOR 100EPS! Image

100 episodes sounds great to me, hoping for me down the track but who knows. I hope this series channels some of the tense moments from Z, I wanna relive the unpredictability and sense that anything could happen all over again.

100 sounds so impossible, like those rumor numbers, but hey, if it's true I'll take it. That's two years worth of material! O_O

That seems like a placeholder to me, as well. I'm sure they'll keep writing episodes as long as the series remains popular. Sounds like they had a hell of a time ending Dragon Ball the last time...

This shows that not all rumors are fake and hopefully they'll go beyond 100 if it's doing good.
July 9th 2018 will be remembered as the day Broly became canon.

100 episodes? Damn, looks like we got another long running shonen anime on our hands. That, and Toei obviously expect this show to be a hit. But at least we're getting a lot of new Dragon Ball material. So I'm not gonna complain, this is awesome. :)

May Dragon Ball never die. :thumbup:
