In order to not get yourself upset, don't expect a huge announcement... It was the same way last year, they'd announce something big, and it turned out to be "Goku's Day". It's cool indeed, don't get me wrong, but it's just national.

Hopefully we'll get a full description for the next arc and maybe a poster with a Toriyama comment on it.
Hoping for it to be a poster.After all, we got one for Champa Arc before the series started.

Dragonball Super just needs to have decent animation and it'd be a pretty good anime. Such a pity that the most popular anime in the world is being animated so shitty.

If the poster is like the one we got last year then we should be able to work how who will be relevant.

It had Champa holding earth with a big Goku, Vegeta and Piccolo in the middle. Goku in the centre with Vegeta a bit behind and Piccolo behind them. Everyone else was small on the poster and it represented the arc.

My guess is the announcement of a new opening song and animation along with the name of the band performing it.

XV got announced during this time in 2014 so maybe it'll be a new game.
July 9th 2018 will be remembered as the day Broly became canon.

It has to do with "developments in Super".

Yes, but now I'm going against what I just said in the previous post, all I want to be announced now is the sequel to Dragon Ball Xenoverse. And I'm hoping for that a lot.

I think the announcement will just be more tidbits provided by Toriyama to vaguely describe what will happen in the future of Super.

I miss that F and Champa arc dougi so much and it's only been gone a week. @_@

Neat to see Chi-Chi's the one in the "This week in--" segment. GoChi's one of my canon ships that I haven't done much of anything with since Super started because there haven't been many positive moments for them. It's King Ryû writing so I have some confidence.

Unless someone else is around to translate it beforehand, I'll take a crack at it as soon as I'm able to.

Still no mention of Gohan ? Poor guy, it seems he wouldn't be that involved in the episode. :|

He's mentioned by Chi Chi to arrive at the party later, but I think the party ends off screen, and probably has nothing to do with the next episode. Seems like he was purposely written out of this episode. Perhaps for a set up, or not wanting to write for him. Could be the former, wouldn't be surprised if it was the latter.

Gohan is either going to play a major role in the next arc or he's going to be off screen for the rest of the show.

He might become Hull Cogan, See Em Punk, and Krispen Wah. Cohan? Who's that? We'll wonder if he exists or ever existed? I'm pretty sure Goku is actually Pan's father anyways. :lol:

Thanks for the heads up, DB-Z.com just posted it so I thought it was new.

They probably just reminded everyone that today is Goku Day, and used the same pic that they used last year.

Glancing at it, it just looks like a "It's Gokû day, here's why, thank you for continued support!" kind of thing; but I could be wrong.

I thought every day was Goku day? When isn't it Goku day?
