Episode 26 the 12th, 27 the 18th and 28 the 21st. The timing goes back to normal on the 18th of January.

Wait so the next 3 episode don't have a week of wait between them?
No, this was because of New Year.

But didn't he/she type the 27 was available on the 18th and then 28 on the 21rst? I know the new years made a week without new a episode, but what they typed makes it seam like there's like 3 episodes 3 episodes in like 10 days.
Any post before 8/7/2016 isn't mine. This account was a gift from someone who thought the account was already banned. Saved me the trouble of making a new one haha XD

I love DB/DBZ/DBGT/DBZK/DBS (If I didn't why would I be here? XD)

A bit of dip from the previous rating. But nothing out of the ordinary. Did Sazae-san not air that week?

With all the cheesy gag scenes its apparently riddled with, I'm not at all surprised that fans are critiquing it negatively.

Its not because of the gag scenes. Its because its a retelling of something that people already saw recently.

A world without Dragon Ball is just boring.

Well gag scenes in general don't seem to blend too well with DBZ; especially when an entire episode or two is saturated with it.

Regardless, I wonder who's brilliant idea it was to drag out a fight that had already been choreographed nicely (Beerus vs Goku)?

Because it's Christmas and people are doing other things than watching TV.

I'm kinda surprised an episode that had such bad animation and art style not to mention mediocre fight choreography had the best ratings so far also this episode had a lot of unnecessary gag scenes

I'm not very enlightened when it comes to reading ratings, so are we doing good, bad, or in the middle? lol (The series as a whole I mean)

Congratulations on being the first to point out one little irrelevant typo.

You're welcome but it wasn't a typo I pointed out, it was the annoying preconception that "DBZ" is a separate part of the story (and it also made your sentence not make sense but you don't seem to care about that).

It never came even close to leave the top 10 and the ratings are steady. So, i'd say great.

But isn't it so that people don't celebrate Christmas in Japan? Or at least most don't?

They do, it just has a different meaning. But tv is definitely affected, by breaks and low ratings.

Sazae didn't air that week because Maruko-chan was a 1-hour special. Kindaichi was a special too, so no Conan.
Speaking of which, it's a good sign that Kindaichi had a long special and it still wasn't enough to beat a regular DBS episode.

Is it that entertaining to nitpick a completely trivial matter that has absolutely nothing to do with the topic? What doesn't make sense is, you taking the discussion in a different direction when in no shape or form was I trying to indicate or imply that DBZ was a seperate part of the story.
