Where has the talk about Arale and retconning the EoZ coming from?
Arale comes from Mayumi Tanaka's blog and Mami Koyama's website. The retcon is just a guess because the rough script for episode 1 of Super mentioned it occured several months after the Boo arc.

I wonder if we'll get a Zen'oshin?

I hope so. Kinda can't take this guy seriously enough to be the highest rank above all 12 universes. He's just the king of all, so I'm hoping there will be an actual god that's even higher than him, and stronger.

You can't be serious.

It would not be a shock really as I can see it being the place where Zeno lives.

I can't tell if you're just theorising or if you've fallen victim to terrible speed subs.

There is no universe 13. That was a mistranslation by a group translating from Japanese to Dutch to English.

I am making a theory just because of Zeno and anything seems possible now.

I wouldn't be surprised if there's a secret 13th universe that no one knows about.
July 9th 2018 will be remembered as the day Broly became canon.

Every time I look at him, I find him so silly looking. He looks like a fan creation than a real character if you ask me.
So? I don't remember anyone in this forum praising Super 13 design or other GT awful ones, like Mutchy Mutchy's Whip, Luud and others. Geez. is like we have to accept every fugly design just because Toriyama made it.

I don't know who these people are. Most people agree Super 13 was a bad movie and link his look to Vegeta with that dew, which is also bad. People also hate how Gohan, Vegeta, and to a lesser extent Goten all share a similar dew in GT as well. Don't know where this praise for GT designs is as it mostly gets contempt or people no longer really care about GT in general. The only design people generally seem to like more than hate is SSJ4. That's the only constant that comes back. Most of the 13 movie villains outside of Broly are also forgotten too since he gets so much publicity. I'm just seeing made up excuses at this point.
Why Dragon Ball Consistency in something such as power levels matter!

Anybody ever notice Super 13 and Broly have the exact same design, only one has Vegeta's hair and the other has USSJ Future Trunks' hair? They're recolors. lol.
"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

Ok, so if GT's designs are as heavily censured as you say*, then does Toriyama really get an automatic pass for whatever he does when Toriyama is the one who designed a fair number of them?

*Maybe my bias is in play here somehow, but I've actually seen GT's aesthetic (if nothing else) praised many times over 'round these parts.

-Super Dragon Balls wish-

What wish do you guys think they will ask to Zarama?
To revive Frost?! He's unconscious for some time now. :lol:
A world without Dragon Ball is just boring.

Either the wrong person will make the wish or Zarama will misunderstand who makes it and grant him something completely different.

I hope Beerus wish for a universe of despair and suffering, too much for Bulma distaste :)

Maybe Zen'ou shows up because he needs that wish? Beerus couldn't oppose him. Then we would see its possible repercussions next arc.

and i hope this episode will clear up once and for all if that dragon is actually Zarama.

New guy's design is pretty shit-tier.

IDK why every other modern AT design is "big, round head and small featureless body."
