"Dragon Ball Super" Series Official Announcement & Discussion Thread

[TheMikado]

Because most fans, no matter how much they complain, mostly care about saiyans.


why do you think the first thing people wanted was more saiyans from U6.

People generally want new things and only mention Saiyans as it is obvious. This surely has to be the end of Kale and Caulifla now after Goku recovers.

Maybe but it depends what state goku is at that point no way goku will have the strength to go ssjb at best ssj

So since senzu beans aren’t allowed how is Goku going to recover that much stamina that quickly? Even in the buu arc Vegeta had to stall for time just so Goku could rest and I’m not sure how much time has passed in the tournament so far.

[Chuquita]

Wow. This is the arc that never ends.
It goes on and on my friends.

But seriously, into November? Sheesh!

On the bright side, looking forward to Hit the most since I'm neutral on the Uni 6 saiyan trio.

[SansrivaaL]

They want us to be on edge since our big dog's stamina is down to the point that he cant even transform, and the funny thing is Goku will probably own Cauli and Kale despite it

[Yedis]

Episodes 112-114 feel like padding. Like if I wasn't able to catch them, then I wouldn't be missing anything significant

31 minutes left before the special so until episode 113 it should be around in the 20s

Pretty interesting stuff. Don't need to extrapolate further on far off episode names.

Also, my sides reach orbit every time this place turns into a tar pit whenever Kale/Caulifla get any major roles.

I figured as much when Toshi said he was doing 115. If the arc was gong to end in a few episodes, the Pokemon guy would be doing them since he seems to be the closer.

[Saikyo no Senshi]

This shit just won't end. The composition of this arc is absolutely terrible. Looking forward to Takahashi's episode though and my gal Kale. Hope, its more shy Kale and less Broli Kale.

[HeroR]

I am quite interested about 115 since the summery and the title don't seem to match.

I can't help but find this ironic coming from a Naruto fan who watched the anime.

Episode 115 doesnt have a title nor summary

Sorry, meant 114.

[BlueBasilisk]

Hmmm, going just by the scant information we have available here, it seems that Jiren is either eliminated or beaten into retreat some time between 111 and 112. I can't see Goku mucking around with Universe 3 and the girls for two episodes if Jiren's still kicking around. Hit or Goku might tag team him again or Hit makes a sacrifice play for a double KO.

114 sounds like either Kale or Caulifla is going to get a new transformation thanks to being pressured by Goku. If that's the case we might see either SS3 Caulifla like Goku predicted would happen last time, or maybe LSS3 Kale. I'd love that even though I know it'll open up a salt factory.

Toshio said he wrote 112 and 115. 112 appears to be Cabba-focused and Kale and Caulifla don't seem to come into focus until 113, so I'd wager that 115 is the Kale/Caulifla episode he's so pleased with.

This is true. 3 or 4 Tomioka episodes in a row usually does mean the end of the arc. I didn't pick up on Toshio signaling it probably wasn't the end at the time.

I low key worry about why this arc is dragging. Are they just trying out a yearly arc format ala Precure? Is Toriyama getting bored again so they're stalling for time?
I'd think a more plot heavy arc would be more worthy of getting an entire year of episodes; not a tournament. Did they bite off more than they could chew?

At least I won't feel bad if I miss it live after daylight savings time swaps in early November.

My guess is that Hit and Jiren are still fighting during these episodes.

Most of the dragging, Imo, happened in the recruitment episodes. The tournament for the most part isn't really dragged given the scale. Also, this arc is bringing in elements from all the previous, including Resurrection 'F' that people wrote off as 'filler'. Overall, this arc seems like a turning point for Super much like how the Namek/Freeza Saga was turning point back in its day.

Yeah, don't read into anything with these. For example they made a massive point about Goku and Caulifla and SSGSS but in reality of the episode it was nothing but passing dialogue. Or how they talking about Goku's heart throbbing as he turns SSG, in reality of the episode he was just excited.

3 lines is never gonna fully summarise a 20 min episode. Like how people thought Vegeta was gonna KO'd cuz he wasn't mentioned in a bunch of summaries/titles a few months ago. Or more recently people thinking Goku will get KO'd because of the partial half title "Hit vs Jiren".

They are not going to fight through all these episodes. Once a fight like this starts they will focus on it.

People also thought Vegeta was going to get KOed because of that whole ending thing. Just wait, we're probably gonna be in for a whole new wave of that this weekend once the new ending comes out. Oy.

But that's why I said Jiren might be forced to retreat or he backs off if he isn't eliminated. They made a big deal about him moving into action for three episodes, but then he seemingly (key word here) drops out of focus.I figure we'll get some idea what happens one way or the other with the WSJ 112 next week. And if not, 111 is only a couple days after.

[TheOne]

I swear if Kale gets another transformation after her Berserk mode... Kinda tired of seeing Cabba get stepped on. Hopefully he has a nice showing in 112.

Also, increase his stamina as he fights? I'm curious how that works. I'm fully aware that Caulifla is nowhere near on Gokus level, but the fact that he's fighting and trying to recover at the same time is odd without there being a break. We will see what happens though.

Also, why are people complaining about the arc going into November? Especially when the same people were complaining about the Trunks arc being rushed. Get over yourselves.

Yeah I think he might just be off doing something else. Maybe he knocked out Hit and Goku and decided to find other fighters after that, so they change the focus. Surely Jiren might encounter Frieza at some point.
