It says Tagoma switches bodies with Ginyu and becomes even more powerful.

Tagoma, exchanging bodies with Ginyu, and powering up.

In other words: super-powerful frog-Tagoma.

I suppose crazier things have happened, but I'm remaining skeptical until I see something official.

What. I don't get it, isn't Ginyu dead? Even if he was still a frog he died when Buu blew up the Earth.

what the hell? frog Ginyu should be dead by now but its possible Ginyu's body is still alive (though it is a frog) so it's possible Tagoma goes and takes Ginyu's body for getting stronger. It's unlikely though, what would the point be? Show Ginyu kicking Gohan's ass for the sake of ridiculizing Gohan's character even more?

Their keeping him around so Freeza can throw him out into space to die.

I would prefer they keep him around, one of the things I felt FnF was missing (but could not be helped because of time) was a few one on one fights between the heroes and a new group of elite fighters that Freeza had brought. They kind of have it with Shisami vs Piccolo but that was a bit too quick for my liking. While in a movie it would kill the pacing, the series you could have it.

Maybe the anime is going to bring the Ginyu Force back to life along with Freeza? Its the only explanation.

Not really all we would need is the explanation that Shisami and some other soldiers trained, got stronger and can now give are guys a run for their money.

Even so all the main characters are so much stronger that they could take them all out in a heartbeat.

We used to say the same thing about Freeza and look how that turned out. Plus Shisami is proof that if some of Freeza's men actually tried they could be more then chumps. Beside I don't wont them to curbstomp the heroes just give them a good fight.

This is precisely why I said it seemed like a hoax and that it's best to assume it's fake unless any better evidence shows up.

-Still thinking about Champa/Vados voice actors-

Maybe Beerus/Champa and Whis/Vados will have the same voice actors since they are siblings...
Didn't think about this one until now. :P

Nooooo... that would be sad, and bad for Vados :?

I'm also interested in their voices, I just hope they fit the character :3

It depends.
Same voice actors doesn't mean same voices. Unless the voive actor is bad and can't do different voices.
We will know soon. But the more i think about it, the more seems likely.

If there's another Goku in Universe 6, doesn't matter if he's fat/female/evil, Nozawa will be the chosen one.

Vados is pretty sexy judging by the preview. Just my two cents

I know that, but its my personal opinion since I want to hear different voice actors :P
I have no doubt that Yamadera Koichi would do an excellent job if he was the one given the role of Shampa... Vados though is a woman and it would be weird if she was voiced by a man :?

Just like Bardock, Goku, Turles, Gohan and Goten are voiced by a woman?! :P

I haven't watched much anime to tell, but... are there any cases where men voice female characters that aren't meant for laughs? if there are, what are some examples?... :eh:

Maybe you people don't know but a Woman sound much better as a man than a man as a women. Trust me I have a lot of life experience.

Women voicing male characters is common place, especially boys or boyish characters like Goku, Naruto, Luffy, Shinji, Edward Elric, etc.
But men voicing women..i can't remember when it wasn't used just for gags or joke characters. And the way Masakazu Morita voices Whis is probably the most feminine he can do already.

Is it the same as the one in the main page or is this different?. Looks similar to me but could have different dialogue

Also missing is Zarbon and Dodoria... It could be an all out war for Freeza to get the Earth's DB to wish for immortality.
