"Dragon Ball Super" Series Official Announcement & Discussion Thread

Who the heck is Goku Xeno? for us not in the know.

[DranzerX13]

There's been times where NeyType didn't have any DB Super titles or summaries but Animage did.
It was back in March 2016 I think. Anyways, I ordered Animage, and it'll be at my place on Saturday. If nothing is scanned in by then, I'll scan mine in.

It's probably the Goku that joins the Time Patrol, considering how he wear black, and Time Patrol Goten is called Xeno Goten.

Kusao confirms that Nozawa is indeed voicing Goku Black. Nice to have a legit source for that.

Not surprise since Toei makes her play everyone even remotely related to Goku except for Raditz. At least the choice makes sense in this case since Black Goku is basically Goku except evil, as far as we know.

*Cheers again!* Very good to hear! I'm excited to find out how he sounds compared to regular Gokû and especially compared to Tullece.

[Grimlock]

So good to hear that Turles is now officialy canon, even the voice was kept.

So.......anyone going to translate this? I have Google Translate and OBVIOUSLY that doesn't work, so...

However, I did catch one little tidbit if you'd like to hear it. Basically, the tidbit is that even Kusao has no idea what Future Mai's "massive role" in the Black saga is going to be.

[Araki]

Now i'm pretty sure Newtype didn't have episode info. Super has been leaking earlier than One Piece, even this last batch of episodes (42-46) did. One would think with Trunks' arc people would jump on it faster.

[Chuquita]

Has NewType ever not had episode summaries/titles for a Toei show before? Has this ever happened to One Piece?

[sailorspazz]

Wow, nice long interview. Don't have much time to look through now since I'm still at work, so hope to look at it more in depth later. Though as was mentioned, the main "news" is that we have the first confirmation that Nozawa plays Black (in his words, "of course"). And he totally fanboys over how awesomely evil she sounds when doing the role.

Other fun tidbits are his reaction to hearing about the Future Trunks arc ("........huh?!") and his reaction to the future going to shit once more ("Not again!").

She voices way too many characters.
I'll never be able to take Goku Black seriously.

SO excited!
I'm so curious to hear him. I'm picturing him sounding wilder than Turles.

Many thanks!

[Sonicjamareiz]

I hope the episodes don't get leaked.

[Xeztin]

Dragon Ball's always the first leak, I think it's safe to say NewType doesn't have it. Perhaps anyone doesn't, this arc is getting it's own trailer and it's cool new score (At least in the Trailer). They might want to keep it under wraps.

[LightBing]

I think it's smart not spoiling it. They've build up a nice hype, certainly a higher number than usual will tune in. Maybe this translates into more money due to higher pricing publicity time, predicable because of the higher than normal audience.

Close, but not exactly: he says that, though they're comrades who fight together, it's still not clear why they're together. Elsewhere in the interview he makes it clear that he's not been filled in on the long-term story and has to take it episode by episode, so apparently Mai's history with Trunks isn't explained in episode 47.

He also says episode 47 won't make Trunks smile, and apparently it's jam-packed with stuff, with something major happening at the very end. He says Goku Black is super-evil and scary.

Well, someone on the 2chan thread says they bought both Newtype and Animage, but neither had any info on Super. Guess that's that then.

Also, supposedly Super's coming to Taiwan, though the commercial they link to seems a bit sketchy.

Oh WOW.
How unprecedented is that?
