Besides, the anime is what the vast majority of people will be exposed to, not the manga. How many casual Dragon Ball fans know about Moro, Merus, and basically this arc at all?

Re: "Dragon Ball Super" Series Official Announcement & Discussion Thread
It's definitely hitting 5, I just can't see Toei moving on with a full series while they have the likes of one piece, digimon, and dragon quest on-going. That's a good thing, as I want the show to be of the highest quality possible, so the longer they take and the less they're working on when it returns the better.
Re: "Dragon Ball Super" Series Official Announcement & Discussion Thread
According to ANN:Matches Malone wrote: ↑Tue Oct 20, 2020 10:07 amI also think this is likely, but there's still a chance they cut out the anime entirely and focus on movies instead. If they can bring in even half the numbers DS is currently doing, wouldn't it make more sense financially to release a movie every 2 years instead of every 3-4 ? Broly's budget was around $8.5 million, which is more or less the budget of a 50 episode show, but the work is less and the profits are more.
A typical show can cost as little as US$125,000 per episode. On occasion a very well-off production can go north of US$300,000 per episode, but that's pretty rare. Budgets for an anime are never made public, but that's the general level things are at.
So that gives us a range of about $6 million for an average 50 episode anime to over $15 million for a high budget production. That might be over a few years since the highest budget anime seem to be seasonal with long breaks between them.
I'm not sure how much revenue DBS generated since it would mostly come from licensing while movies would have that plus box office revenue. It's possible that continue with movies might be cheaper for them and less work overall while earning more. They did say it depends on Toriyama so I think what matters most is what he's comfortable with.

Also how much longer can Nozawa keep doing Goku's voice now that she's 83? If they wait a few more years she'll be pushing 90. Imagine doing Goku's screams at her age? This is not even taking into consideration she may not be healthy enough to voice act in a few more years even if she lives to 100.

She may also just want to retire and enjoy the rest of her life with her loved ones. I think Goku getting recast will be a lot sooner than later.precita wrote: ↑Wed Oct 21, 2020 1:45 pm Also how much longer can Nozawa keep doing Goku's voice now that she's 83?

Wouldn't she already had done that? She's also said something along the lines that she breathes and lives Goku.Matches Malone wrote: ↑Wed Oct 21, 2020 1:52 pmShe may also just want to retire and enjoy the rest of her life with her loved ones.

Re: "Dragon Ball Super" Series Official Announcement & Discussion Thread
She's gone on record saying she can keep acting till 100, or even 128. While I'm sure it wasn't said in total stony-faced seriousness, I think it basically shows her intention to keep doing it as long as she's physically able to. If she has a choice in the matter, she'll keep doing it.Matches Malone wrote: ↑Thu Oct 22, 2020 12:43 amYou make 2 good points, which is why I don't think she's going anywhere now, but what about 5 years from now ? or even a bit earlier ?

Re: "Dragon Ball Super" Series Official Announcement & Discussion Thread
Yeah you've got to give Nozawa respect for being so committed to the role. Taking on Super was a lot at her age, but she still knocked it out of the park. I'd be grateful if she continued and we get even more great performances but I wouldn't expect it of her or any voice actor if it was better for their health to retire. Nozawa is still seemingly very healthy and energetic for her age though.
Do you have any info about international non-English broadcasts about the Dragon Ball anime or manga translations/editions? Please message me. Researching for a future book with Dragon Ball scholar Derek Padula
Re: "Dragon Ball Super" Series Official Announcement & Discussion Thread
Good morning everyone. We have news with future Toei productions and I would like to comment on them.
Sailor Moon Eternal movies 1 and 2.
The 2 Sailor Moon movies in co-production by Toei Animation and Studio Deen have revealed, trailer, date and more information about the movies:
https://www.animenewsnetwork.com/news/2 ... er/.165272
The 2 films will be released in January and February 2021.
On the other hand, the premiere date of the new season of World Trigger has already been revealed.
https://www.animenewsnetwork.com/daily- ... -9/.165515
On January 9, the new season of World Trigger will premiere on TV Asahi. The director of this new season of the series is the director of Dragon Ball Super Future Trunks saga.
How many episodes can the new season of World Trigger have? The previous season ended in episode 73 of the anime which was equivalent to episode 119 of the manga so the new season began in episode 120 of the manga.
Currently due to the health of the creator, the manga currently has 202 episodes and is published monthly.
That is, they have approximately 85 episodes to adapt and the previous season I adapted in 73 anime episodes 119 manga episodes. That means that this new season should not last more than 1 year.
Greetings!

Okay but like, i really love World Trigger and i hope they do it... goodly...
World Trigger is also monthly now so it will get caught up a lot quicker than the original run.

World Trigger explains where the Koizumis have been.
But yeah, Super isn't happening for a long while now.

Re: "Dragon Ball Super" Series Official Announcement & Discussion Thread
Resources seem to be very stretched thin right now considering how the quality of the Digimon anime has gone down the crapper recently. I think it's safe to say holding off on another Super anime was the best call.
Spoiler:
Re: "Dragon Ball Super" Series Official Announcement & Discussion Thread
So I guess the future of Dragonball is movies only now, which admittedly, isn't a bad thing.
I guess the Moro arc will never get an anime adaption then. It's probably impossible to condense it to a single 1 hour 40 minute movie too, so I can't see it getting a movie treatment either. I guess people who don't like the arc can just ignore it then if it stays manga exclusive.
On the other hand it's kinda sad, and makes you realize Super was just a one-off run from 2015-2018....only about 3 1/2 years of episodes.

Re: "Dragon Ball Super" Series Official Announcement & Discussion Thread
Can't do a movie if all your action animators are working on every other series.
The Moro arc would be easy to adapt into 100 minutes. Just remove a ton of shit and make the story tighter.

That's not surprising considering how much $$$ Broly made, as it might make more sense financially to cut the anime out entirely in favor of putting out more movies.precita wrote: ↑Sat Oct 24, 2020 11:47 pm So I guess the future of Dragonball is movies only now, which admittedly, isn't a bad thing.

It'd be impossible if they were to adapt it as is, but if they wanted it animated they'd find a way to cut it down to fit a 100 minute time window.
I don't think Super will remain as a one off show, however it's clear we'll be waiting a lot longer for its return (or sequel) than we thought. DB is currently in a similar position to GTA, where it doesn't need new installments to make $$$. That obviously won't last forever, but it'll last longer than it would for another franchise.
Re: "Dragon Ball Super" Series Official Announcement & Discussion Thread
I think that in general it is pointless to expect, and hope for something which MAY happen, and just focus on other stuff that is actually available.
Or do something different, but still related to DB, such as start drawing characters, or something like that...

Re: "Dragon Ball Super" Series Official Announcement & Discussion Thread
I definitely agree that, at this point at least, it is pointless, as a potential return is all but confirmed to not happen until years from now, if even then.
Once they're done adapting that they'll just move on to something else not DB related, as they've been doing since 2018. DB's return to TV is nothing short of years away, if even that, it may not return at all.Nanatsu88 wrote: ↑Sat Oct 24, 2020 7:34 pmThe new season of World Trigger will premiere on TV Asahi.

Re: "Dragon Ball Super" Series Official Announcement & Discussion Thread
But how can they do a new movie without adapting Moro arc? Considering that Moro's arc begins right after Goku returns from Planet Vampa too...
