Since Piccolo is not sensing evil out of Frost then I guess that's a sign that he is a good guy. We finally got a member of Freeza's race that is good. At least we are not getting a rehash of Freeza or Coola.

I won't be surprised if this happens once Super starts airing in the US.
July 9th 2018 will be remembered as the day Broly became canon.

The two characters look nothing a like. They are both yellow bears, but that's about it. He may be a homage of Winnie the Poo, but not a straight up rip off.

I feel like Magetta's design is gonna get butchered with all of the awful art in this series.

Nah, he's a super simple design, if anything he should be pretty easy to keep consistent, the only thing that will probably vary greatly is the quality of his shading.

According to Toriyama's comment in the new 30th anniversary book, he complained to Toei about the quality of Super.

If this is 100% confirmed then here's my response:
I may not be completely on board with all of modern DB's ideas, but it's nice that the original author validates the criticism I have of the shows quality!
He does care after all :thumbup:

Yes! I hope that scares them a bit. Would they say anything if he jumped ship? I hope the next arc is, at least, 90% consistent.

The translation thanks to Kei17:
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.
I'm shocked.

Keep in mind that we don't know exactly what he complained about.

I'm just worried this is going to be misconstrued into "Toriyama called Super worthless garbage that destroyed his vision!! Confirmed for non-canon!!!"

I'm not convinced this will change anything, but if the original author is complaining... c'mon Toei.
