You can get the full version of the new character art here. This is a great new design for the character, much better than his usual short hair.

I made a bet with Alee9977 that Vegeta won't be beaten quickly by an opponent. If I lose, I switch my avatar to Vegeta getting beat by hit. If I win, he switches it to Vegeta holding Black by his hair. This will last a month.

Toriyama has drawn Trunks' hair blue quite a few times. I guess kinda like how the gis are different colors sometimes in certain colored artwork

Anyways there better be some development for present Trunks. I'd be really bugged that they'd bring back the Trunks from the future, and do nothing with the present one. He and Goten are already wastes of space as is, and desperately need growth in more ways than one.
Why Dragon Ball Consistency in something such as power levels matter!

Wait... So is purple hair trunks an anime only thing? Was he supposed to have blue hair the whole time?

No, it just switches between the two colors when it comes to renders. That's all.
Dragon Ball /Z/GT/Super is a children's show and there's nothing wrong with that.

If I remember correctly Trunks hair color in both the anime and manga is purple, not blue.
Dragon Ball was always a kid series and fans should stop being in denial.

I'm insanely hyped. If he's coming then they'res a threat. If they'res a threat then they'res tension and gohan. Future trunks was also a great character imo. Kind of sad that he never got a break in the end though..

Fantastic news! I hope the story gets a little more serious now. Trunks is going to see Gohan and be like "Gohan.... what happened???"

Dang, I don't even like Trunks that much but for some reason I'm crazy hyped up for this. Could the ascot he's wearing be a nod to his GT counterpart?

My inner fanboy is extremely happy, but I really hope his return actually means something. Wish that his design was without the scarf, but I like the hair. Definitely looks like his clothes are battle damaged. Hopefully Future Trunks brings interesting conflict back.

Not the Time Patrol version? Uh, not interested then. Buu saga in his timeline was cool in Shin Budokai but, eh... What else can he add to the lore if not as a Time Patroller?

Is it odd I want them to adapt the videogame story into canon?
