And then Ginyu changes bodies with Frieza. Resurrection G.
"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
Could someone explain how it is possible that Ginyu is still alive or can even use his swapping technique?
Also, 52 x 30minutes... 30 minutes? Have press releases in the past given the wrong run-time? Dragon Ball Z Kai was given (69 x 26’) for the press release for Japan on Toei's European website?

Why wouldn't he be?
As for the swapping technique, I think someone revealed Tagoma's the one who swaps bodies with a frog for some reason. He might not have known the frog in question was Ginyu.

Thirty minutes is just a general "hey, this is fitted for a half hour broadcasting slot with commercials".

What are you talking about? Especially when it's something based on filler.
James Teal (Animerica 1996) wrote:When you think about it, there are a number of similarities between the Chinese-inspired Son Goku and that most American of superhero icons, Superman. Both are aliens sent to Earth shortly after birth to escape the destruction of their homeworlds; both possess super-strength, flight, super-speed, heightened senses and the ability to cast energy blasts. But the crucial difference between them lies not only in how they view the world, but in how the world views them.
Superman is, and always has been, a symbol for truth, justice, and upstanding moral fortitude–a role model and leader as much as a fighter. The more down-to-earth Goku has no illusions about being responsible for maintaining social order, or for setting some kind of moral example for the entire world. Goku is simply a martial artist who’s devoted his life toward perfecting his fighting skills and other abilities. Though never shy about risking his life to save either one person or the entire world, he just doesn’t believe that the balance of the world rests in any way on his shoulders, and he has no need to shape any part of it in his image. Goku is an idealist, and believes that there is some good in everyone, but he is unconcerned with the big picture of the world…unless it has to do with some kind of fight. Politics, society, law and order don’t have much bearing on his life, but he’s a man who knows right from wrong.

That should be more like:
"And then Tagoma changes bodies with Ginyu (captain of the Freeza Army's mightiest unit, who in the past became a frog due to his special ability and remained that way), achieving an even further power-up."
It's a long convoluted sentence, but かつて自分の特殊能力で蛙の姿になってしまい, そのまま残っていたフリーザ軍の最強部隊の隊長 is all modifying Ginyu, not Tagoma.
Also, you seem to be mistaking かつて/"previously, in the past" for かつてない/"unprecedented, never seen before". There isn't any mention of an "unseen" ability.

So I'll assume that Tagoma finds frog-in-Ginyu's-body and changes bodies with him, and gaining his 120,000 BP (maybe less, but still way more than his 20,000ish), instead of changing bodies with Ginyu-in-frog's-body, which would just turn him into a defenseless frog.

Ginyu seriously has the potential of being a recurring character. I hope he's not just reintroduced to be quickly killed...

Guys, I'm going to be straight with you. If you feel the show has gotten 'silly' ... it hasn't. You're just 'too old for this shit'. Seriously, 95% of the people in those boards do not fit the target demographic of the show, so don't expect the show to be 'everything you hoped for'. I'm referring to the people here who expect Super to be rich with dark moments, serious storytelling, meaningful characters etc etc. It won't. It's a show for kids. A show for kids being kids. Everyone in those boards has a manchild in him/her, clamoring to get out, and that's fine. But having unrealistic expectations (such as believing the show grew up alongside you) is naïve at best. Honestly, do you take seriously a story where the supposed God of Destruction halts his urges to blow up stuff in order to eat ice cream sundae? That's the show's silliness at full force, take it for what it is. The show hasn't matured one bit, so don't expect it too. Again, I'm not saying that's a bad thing. I'm saying *that* is DB and always will be.

For realsies? Well this turns out to be more promising to me right now
Anyway has anybody ever though of how stupid is Freeza in RoF? Despite the fact he went immediately to Earth after achieving his new form without get used to it, he recognizes that his Army is a bunch of weaklings, so why not a take a little more time to go around the universe recruit more powerful troops? What 1,000 ants can do against dinosaurs? Then people wouldn't just complain about things like Piccolo struggling with Shisami and etc. We could see not only the humans, but Goten, Trunks, 18 and even Boo fighting with them too

I want to see 18 and Buu get to fight so badly in reF. 18 because Freeza killed Kuririn in the original Freeza arc and that puts motivation on her part, and Buu because Buu's got fun powers.

He did this in Toriyama's script. That's where Shisami comes from.
