Oh, Vegeta was the one to say that, right. Even so, he does say that Oob can't enter if he has just been born, there's no "being too young" there. It's possible he just assumed Goku was talking about something recent but Goku didn't correct him, so...

If we went with the theory that Super is happening sooner than the movies timelines, would it still fit?

It can't happen sooner due to Pan, unless we retcon her age at the 28th Budokai.

It's not like Goku would correct someone, he let Chi-Chi think he was going on a space picnic.

I imagine Gokû was incredibly nervous and flustered when trying to explain things to Chi-Chi (worried she would tell him "no") and just so relieved it was over that he didn't bother to try and correct her because it would mean explaining it again.

July 9th 2018 will be remembered as the day Broly became canon.

I don't think V-Jump uses Dragon Ball every month for this calendars, but I have this one from BOG arc with the same pattern:

I know what my new wallpaper is.

Yet again, Vegeta is on Champa's side. Seeing them side by side made me realize both Vegeta and Cabba's armor look alike. At least, the upper part's color scheme is the same.

Interesting point about Vegeta. It probably doesn't mean anything but if someone let it slip that Beerus was involved with Planet Vegeta going tits up, it could make for some good drama to unfold.

Damn, Monaka looks pretty menacing while angry. Sure hope he has the chance to go berserk.

The way that they're presenting Hit through promotional images is convincing me that there's a lot to this character and that he could possibly be the main antagonist of what's to come. I fucking love speculating shit. So much fun.

Yeah, there's definitely an emphasis on Hit compared to the others. I love his design and hope he doesn't disappoint.

Hit is probably a pun for hitman. I don't think he'll be necessarily stronger than everyone, but his ploy may be to use the super dragon balls for himself or a boss. Objects of that sort of power aren't going to be wasted on some dumb food-related wish.
"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

So anxious about this weekend's episode. Please let a good chunk of it be training/fighting. Zuno was so uninteresting imo and he got an entire episode; I am so hungry for some martial arts in Super right now.

*Hopes!*

Let's just hope they won't skip the paper exam,that part has so much gag potential.

I definitely need the paper exam to happen. It was hilarious in the manga; I want to see it animated.

I think I'm just starved from last week's episode since Zuno felt like a side story that somehow got to be a full ep. The Zuno visit felt like Super's version of Z's "Bulma and the Crab".

Really great image despite the fact that they drew Frost with the wrong feet lol.
Dragon Ball /Z/GT/Super is a children's show and there's nothing wrong with that.
