Well Pan didn't get super saiyan in the heroes games though though I wonder about the avatars like Beat and Note will be in it.
Only Adapt Prison Planet arc so no Beat and Note.

Naturally the avatars are in game, in the UM2 promo you see Beat. But the question is, is the anime adapting the video game or the manga? So at the moment we can't be sure.

Actually I got to say how surprised I am that Pan never got a Super Saiyan form in the Heroes games. I figured that would be pretty viral marketing.

Goten never got Ssj2 or 3 despite Gt Trunks getting them. I guess they're not very popular in Japan.

And Super is not a story... How? What, because a character inspired by Broly in appearance exists?
When Super apparently shoves Goku down our throats:

Super is a story thanks to Toriyama, but despite that, it has merchandise elements to it like the constant recolored Ssj forms, alternate saiyans and Freeza, Broly wannabe, all the call backs to the original, etc.

They also introduce champa plus universe is considered the most popular out of the universe probably because it was the first universe introduced the second being universe 10 and later other universes like what do you want to explore? Universe 11 or 2?

I knew Future Trunks got those power ups, I didn't know GT Trunks got one too. Although really Surprised Goten hasn't gotten much either.

That still doesn't mean it's not telling nor not having a story.
Dragon Ball was always a kid series and fans should stop being in denial.

It's funny that a lot of the popular youtubers including Geekdom, Mastar, and ForneverWorld are saying that there will be two arcs- Universe Survival arc and Prison Planet arc, but that was a mistranslation by YonkouProductions. The translation by Herms98 says that there is only one arc - Prison Planet. The word, "Universe" was referring to "Universe Mission". The first two Universe missions so far in SDBH are the Prison Planet arc. You can tell the whole arc without Beat or any of the characters from Demon Realm. The only new character is Fu and the unknown saiyan in the straitjacket. The latter who is the most interesting since we don't know if it's a character we know that has been revived or a new saiyan. In either case, Fu is definitely experimenting with collecting Time Rift energies like he did in Xenoverse 2 and feeding it into this saiyan.

Did you even read my comment ? I clearly said Super is a story.

my theory is that pan doesn't get super saiyan in the game until she doesn't get in the anime/manga.. maybe a toriyama request.

There's an official website for this PR anime, though there's nothing on it yet.

Damn time this happened. Though I wanted them to adapt Dark Demon Realm first D:

This will probably be monthly? I wouldn't mind if DDRM was a 10 minutes, 10 episodes thing, if it were weekly, but having the anime come out concurrently with the manga and game means it won't be weekly.

It would be awesome if someone could translate all that is written in the website.

Some pages on Facebook are saying that it is clearly written "first episode" right below the date, which would mean that they are planning on release more episodes, like a legit anime, not some one-shot OVA, like Tarble's one.
