I by default just came to the latest page and all I saw was this post and I nearly lost my shit and quickly hopped back to the previous page. :p Makin me think something had finally actually been officially said. Ah well, at least its just some more of the same generalized good stuff. I suppose its of course better than nothing.

Oh yeah also whats with people saying stuff about them not getting to this point until like 2017? I thought that they were on track to be finished with Cell by like Halloween.

Sorry it turned out that way, man, it wasn't my intention :p

Guess who favorited my tweet about it?
I guess I was right, Buu Kai is coming soon

Finally, the wait is over.

I did the same. But at least it is possible Sean has recorded more Kai. Perhaps FUNi can show it on their re-branded "Toku" channel, or on their streaming service, failing that, it's Toonami in November.

They liked it but no real confirmation. Well, that's somewhat reassuring but I feel like FUNi could stand to give an official word sooner rather than later.

This really proves nothing. For all we know, he accidentally liked it. Until we hear it straight from the horse's mouth, we shouldn't jump to such conclusions.

[Lord Beerus]

Welp, looks like I jumped the gun on this one... again.

[ShaneisMC]

Not necessarily. Believe me I'm as fed up with this nonsense as anyone else but I genuinely kinda feel like in the "relatively" near future we will probably finally get what we want. Key word in that last sentence though.

[DBZ_Lee]

I've already given up on getting any announcement until the end of the summer. If Toonami starts airing in November, then they'll likely want it announced not too long before.

[mecha3000]

A lot more posts here than usual. Kinda cool even though there's still no new announcement. Look at the bright side, guys. We've waiting so long that we shouldn't have to wait too much longer, right?

[ShaneisMC]

Thats why I said relatively speaking. We've already literally been waiting for years at this point. Judging by some of the recent comments and general outlook on scheduling of things I see no reason why we won't begin to receive it at least in some fashion or another within the year. Is it annoying? Extraordinarily. But a few more months of waiting isn't "that" bad considering how long its already been.

[Baggie_Saiyan]

Broken image. anyone care to explain what it was?

It was a tweet from a fan asking whether it is the Buu saga of Kai and Sean Schemmel liked the tweet.

[ShaneisMC]

He actually liked two of them if that makes anyone feel better. It wasnt just an "accident" or anything he liked the first one. He also isnt one I believe to just like whatever people throw at him. He specifically liked those two responses to his tweet about recording.

[Baggie_Saiyan]

Hmmm. If FUNi did call him back to do all the screaming at once as speculated then it makes sense why we haven't gotten it yet. Think May will be soon but if this anything to go on then June hopefully we'll see it pop up.

So yeah, I couldn't help posting this even though it's basically Chris Sabat confirming what we already know (At least he optimistically knowledgeable about it). https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Wi6N2wsDo6U#t=56m06s Still, this is the first time I can recall a fan actually bringing up a meaningful question though instead of DOH, SAY OVER 9000! and DO BLONDY BOY VOICE! It's also the first time I recall hearing a fan bring up the Buu Saga of Kai. Also, I have no freakin' idea why it's so hard for him to talk about Kai's Buu Saga when Justin Cook literally said this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K6Udydd ... .be&t=1358 Maybe Cook messed up discussing it too early? Maybe he just can't discuss it because they aren't ready to announce it? Maybe I'm just wasting my time devoting myself to additional speculation? I'll go with that last sentence. Well, at least Shin Chan was brought up (I was watching a few episodes before I came across the first linked video).

It's almost as though FUNimation is trying to emulate the 7 year timeskip between the Cell and Buu arcs in real life

I am almost positive that is literally the first good question I have ever heard from a Q&A panel ever. I'm actually kinda mind blown that someone with a brain capable of asking a sensible question was able and or allowed to get ahold of the mic.

It's coming, there's no doubt about that. My problem is that we've known that it's been coming for so long that it's awesome getting news regarding it but irritating when it's just the "It's happening" kind of news. The new movies are an obvious reason for why production has been going by so slowly but now with those done and the rights to Super currently not being in FUNi's hands, I'm damn sure that we're getting it this year AT LEAST.
