7 things the Future Trunks arc has done right so far

Post by Lujin_16 » Tue Jul 26, 2016 12:50 pm

1.Vegeta has changed and cares more for Future Trunks..

2.This arc is really mysterious and exciting we still don't know who Black Goku is..

3.This arc is slow paced and i like that...I know some don't like it and expecting to see action in every episode but i'm not like that..

4.I love the Soundtrack for this arc it is dark and emotional.

5.Cell's Time machine :clap:

6.The Future Trunks and Gohan moment.

7.We go to see Universe 10.

I know more things will come later like Vegeta trains Future Trunks and the C-18 & Future Trunks moment :o

1. I don't care about that
2. Too mysterious as they have told us nothing at all yet about him.
3. Way too slow with too much filler
4. Yes
5. Yes
6. The whole Trunks and Gohan interaction on episode 52 is the funniest bit of the arc so far as
7. We need to actually explore and not just see 1 random person who the cast could meet anywhere. There has to actually be something special about going to the Universe 10 and not just to see a random Kai to make this a good point.

Mirai Trunks arc has done only 1 thing right as far as i am concerned and that is Black Gokuu. The character is interesting, Nozawa is doing a fantastic job playing him and the writers in every episode so far have surprisingly handled him well.

1. Agreed, though I wish Vegeta had gone with them to meet Zamasu.
2. Agreed.
3. I like the slow pace, but I wasn't that big a fan of the middle exposition episodes. I liked the early and later exposition episodes though. I was wishing for more character moments. Feel like I'm gonna get it in later eps now that the main writing team is back.
4. 5. & 6. Agreed.
7. Agreed. I hope we learn some new and interesting stuff about Uni 10.

1: That change already came over him during the Cell arc, I think, but you do have a point in that Vegeta's changed into caring a lot for his family.
2: For now, things are definitely mysterious, and yeah, I agree that it's a good thing. Goku Black's secrets might be revealed kinda soon, but we'll see.
3: Absolutely. While the Pilaf gang gags are unnecessary and only really serve to stall, we're not rushing anymore, and that's really nice to see.
4: The music's definitely improved. My only complaint is adding the Yoka Yoka Dance ending to an arc like this.
5: Continuity is always good. Hopefully they'll show that Bulma's able to redirect the time machine to Future Trunks' timeline instead of Cell's timeline.
6: Looking forward to the Future Trunks and 18 episode coming up this week, too. It's nice to see character interaction! I just wish Future Trunks could meet Bulla. She'd probably blow his mind.
7: I really hope that we're going to visit many universes before we get to the omniverse tournament. Not necessarily all twelve, but a good portion. Going to meet Zamasu is a good start.

1. We've seen this change for quite a while now, so it really doesn't... count?

2. Agreed, even with all the hints pointing at Zamasu it seems there's still a lot we don't know.

3. Agreed, it's been moving at a nice pace, hopefully we'll see it last longer than 12-14 episodes.

4 and 5. Agreed.

6. It might've not been what most people wanted, but it happened.

7. Even if it's for just a couple episodes. Hopefully we see more from the rest.

Can I give seven things that I believe the arc has done well or is it just a response?

- Expanding Future Trunks' character
- Having a good central antagonist
- Keeping Beerus and Whis largely out the plot
- Having a consistently good BGM
- Creating a sense of mystery and mystique
- Permanently killing off an important character
- Satisfying shipping fans

"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." - Akira Toriyama on Dragon Ball Super

You can do both if you want
1. Making Black an interesting villain

2. Showing Vegeta's concern for his family with his anger over Black's actions

3. Integrating Future Trunks into the current time period

4. Bringing Super Saiyan 2 back

5. Providing some genuine mystery

6. Giving Baby Pan a few moments of comedy

7. Entertaining me each week

Honestly, my only major complaint with this arc so far is the screen time that Pilaf Gang are having.
They are everywhere, they are not funny, and sometimes all they can do is ruin the mood like here.

The only one that makes sense is Mai given the future counterpart.

The Pilaf Gang have overstayed their welcome. In DBZ they weren't even in it, and I liked it that way. I don't mind seeing them every now and then in Super but their screentime leaves me scratching my head.

I mean I understand they want a more comedic story but Pilaf and his crownies just aren't funny at all.

Huh? They've done jack shit in Future Trunks arc. Hell, the only thing thing of any significance I can remember either of them providing in the plot so far is exposition from Whis about the butterfly effect. And of course Beerus threatening to destroy Future Trunks' time machine, which would have been pointless, as they had a second one to spare.

And take Goku to Universe 10 so they can meet Zamasu, a guy that seems to have the same ki than Black, in order to find out his identity.
They aren't largely out the plot.

1. Beerus straw
2. Black soundtrack
3. Explaining stuff
4. Future backgrounds
5. Slow pacing
6. Zamasu feel interesting and serious
7. Black is, so far, the best antagonist in Dragon Ball (complex, faulty, in progress) since Pikkoro Daimaoo.

1 - I believe it was mainly an attempt at humor
2 - if you really NEED it spelled out, they don't believe Beerus/Whis have been largely excluded
3 - relax, geez....
