This kind of fight is nothing new to dragon ball. Goku vs Botamo is very familiar to goku vs buyon. In both goku used his mind and the opponent takes no damage because of their body.

Wow, a nice, big episode summary box after the last couple ones looked smaller than normal for some reason. Of course, with the manga chapter already covering this part, not much new in there except that Botamo can send attacks to "another dimension" (and I can never look at that term and not think of the early censorship of DBZ :P)

...it looks like someone involved with making this summary was confused about Universe 6 and 7, though. The text in the upper right lists Gokuu and co. as being members of the Universe 6 team :P

Unique ability. And It seems he also doesn't get tired until he takes some damage.
I love it.
A world without Dragon Ball is just boring.

So Dragon Ball Heroes posted a trailer which had SSGSS Goku fighting against Frost.

I suppose this implies Goku may actually turn full SSGSS against Frost. And regular SSJ against Botamo.

He is also fighting 1st form Frost. Don't look that deep into it.

I'm not looking to deep into it. I'm just saying it's a possibility. That's why i said MAY.
Also the manga hasn't always been very consistent in regards to the anime.

I was watching a Hajime No Ippo clip and you know what I want in the first big or the biggest epic moment of this arc? A vocal insert song. Nothing sends chills up my spine like when a badass vocal track kicks in at an epic moment.
Looking at Battle of Gods this shit still gives me chills. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TZ-JCZLCjm0

That scene is out of this world. That Shida cut is my favourite fight scene of any DB Movie.
I also have a soft spot for an awesome vocal insert song.

Before I watched DB in the japanese, I had no idea there was gems like this.
Here in our dub, we just got the instrumental. So when I reached this part, it's when I realized I couldn't go back.

I'm going to guess and say you heard Weight of my Pride playing when Takamura was fighting Eagle.

Ippo vs Sawamura, don't know what the song is called, but it cuts out right before he punches him in the face.

So, according to this article, Sumitomo's a Dragon Ball fan? I'm very surprised...

The article even quotes our own translation and you don't link THAT...?! I'm devastated :(.

Yes, it came out. Don't know what else to say about it. We got the track listing a while back. It is what it is.

Just that it's the 30th anniversary of the Dragon Ball anime, and it looks like Yahoo! Japan will be skinned with DB stuff during searches or something like that.

It's celebrating the 30th anniversary of the date Dragon Ball began airing. If you make a search for "dragon ball" using Yahoo on your smart phone after 11:00am, the search results will be displayed in a special design. Presumably this will only work with the Japanese version of the app, but maybe someone will post some screencaps after this starts.

26 February 1986 - 26 February 2016. Dragon Ball anime officially hits the 30th mark.

-Edit-
I was 1 second late. :P

The picture has goku vegeta and piccolo so maybe its hinting at piccolo having a bigger role( even though it is cut from an old poster).
