If Super does end on 133 it'll just be followed up by a new DB series the very next week.
They could also put the series on a hiatus for some week then restarting with the pre-eoz last arc - moments

But I agree, no way it's close to its end, and as you said, also if Super ends, Dragon Ball obviously will proceed another series

They revived Dragon Ball once, now it's immortal and will probably last forever

Now that you guys mentioned Caulifla, I tought something: what if they put super in pause, then they make many special dedicated to other universes?
I could open a good champagne bottle if this happens, sooner or later

I wont be surprised because Toei wants to pander to the female audience hard.

Saint Seiya was also a series known for being "gory" and "manly" and now they will release Saint Seiya Sainta Sho, with Shoko as the Main character(of course that series will have Seiya in it ).

DBS could do the same, Caulifla as the MC but also involving Goku in the series.

There is no way Dragon ball Super is ending after this tournament as why not just include all 12? It is too successful for it to stop.

Did you miss the part where we said they would just follow it up with a sequel series immediately after?

You have no basis for this though. Besides, it is not gonna end at #133.

Nobody is saying that it will end on 133, I'm just saying that if it did it'd just be followed by a sequel right away anyways because Dragon Ball is making WAY too much money to stop right now.

The Super brand is strong, like really strong, for years they have been looking for another brand name, why risk that all away on a sequel series? Z to GT comes to mind...

Some random black kid that Goku used as an excuse to abandon his family again.

The Dragon Ball brand as a whole is strong, going with a sequel wouldn't hurt things. GT was GT, it wasn't from Toriyama and it didn't resonate with people.
One reason to go with a new name would be to signify a change in the show, for example going past the end of Z.
It'd probably be more like the transition from DB to Z than anything.

The mohawk kid that got Goku back on his wakuwaku shit if we go by what Piccolo said that its been a long time since he saw Goku that happy.

Give me lots of other universes stories, they have potential for making an infinite number of them and make tons of money too

Universe 6 stories
A power rangers like U11 show
A...mmh, dunno, something funny about u4 maybe ( unlikely imo but who knows)
Nothing for the robot one, u3
A sailor moon style spin-off for U2 magical team

And more

They are keeping the Shingo Araki art, which is great, thats a nice hook for the old fans of SS, thats a clear indication they want to appeal to old fans too(unlike DBS who wnats to appeal to mostly kids).

Anyways, having a female as MC in DB(Caulifla) shouldnt be bad. It didnt kill the Star Wars franchise when Rey became the main protagonist, the Wonder Woman movie turned out a big hit for the DC Universe.
