If they bring it back after the movie, re branded as a new series instead of Super.

The suggestions I've seen so far are: Dragon Ball Ultra, Dragon Ball Infinity, Dragon Ball Generations

Dragon Ball Ultra seems like the logical continuation... which means Toei probably won't use it! I'm gonna guess something weird like... Dragon Ball Zuper. You know, just to f- with out feeble attempts at abbreviations.

Isn't Super (cho) and Ultra already similar in Japanese? 'Cuz Google always translates DBS as DB Ultra.

I will be honest, Dragon Ball Super has always sounded a little cheesy to me. Adding super to anything sounds a little cheesy to me. So if there will be a new series, I hope they'll pick something that sounds a little better.

Dragon Ball AF
the only series i could accept right now except for original DB reboot/remake.
Anything about gods, time travels or multiverses is trash to me. I don't want to see it anymore.

I can see why someone would feel that way, but Dragon Ball Super as a title is no worse than The Amazing Spiderman.

As we seem to be in the era of a word following the brand (Kai, Super) rather than letters (Z, GT) I'd imagine the next series (if its not Super episode 132 onward) will follow the same pattern.

I personally like Dragon Ball Infinity, but Dragon Ball Beyond would be interesting and symbolic if we go paat EoZ and see Goku passing the torch.

For similar purposes I'd also suggest Dragon Ball Legacy.
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 :thumbup:

Dragon Ball G5 or E5 standing for Generation/Edition 5 (there was DB, DBZ, GT, Super, and this would be 5). I imagine it would be read as such like "ジー。ファイブ" or "イー。ファイーブ." It's just a stupid idea derived from an idea I once had as a kid.

Dragon Ball was always a kid series and fans should stop being in denial.

They might call it something like Dragon Ball Gold or Dragon Ball Plus (given we've had DB Minus) or even Dragon Ball X (which would be way cheesier than Super)

Dragon Ball Final? If they want people to really tune in then yes, but if they aren't gonna set it past the actual end of the manga then it's not worth using that title.

If it's just more of the same in regards to Super (stuff that takes place before the actual end of the manga), then I'unno - just let it still be Dragon Ball Super, complete with letting it pick up with where the first part leaves off in episode numbering rather than starting at an episode 1 again. If they feel they must, give it some kind of subtitle like how Kai has 'The Final Chapters', but for all intents and purposes, just leave it as Super.

If it's actually finally moving beyond the End of Z though? Something like 'Dragon Ball: Next Generation' could work, though if they wanted something less wordy, maybe just 'Dragon Ball Next'.
