Hoping that those chilling OSTs that were in the preview and teaser trailer are going to be in the actual arc.

I always find myself returning to the teaser trailer just for the music.

Yeah, I really hope the music in the NEP for the Future Trunks arc is actually on the official soundtrack because it sounded freakin awesome.

Plot Twist: Goku Black is actually Goten from the future.
"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

That might just be the only way I could begin to give even a fraction of a Kardashian's ass about that character lol.
When someone tells you, "Don't present your opinion as fact," what they're actually saying is, "Don't present your opinion with any conviction. Because I don't like your opinion, and I want to be able to dismiss it as easily as possible." Don't fall for it.

Vegeta's description of the Goku figure is pretty intimate. What's the deal with no Vegeta figure though?

It's a trailer, and if Toei felt like going back to purple they could've re-coloured the hair this morning before sending the final files for airing
His hair was blue in the last episode though.
It'd be weird if they suddenly changed it back to purple unless they plan on fixing the last episode on the Blu-ray version.

Okay, I did not think about that possibility, now I want to see it happen just to see the Goten fanbase implode. :P

Implode ? that would be the best thing they could do with him.

It would be like Jason going from a hated robin to the fan favorite red hood.
July 9th 2018 will be remembered as the day Broly became canon.

Well, if I can exist on the same plane of oblivion as people who think the Avengers is a master piece of cinema, then Goten having a fanbase shouldn't surprise me :P

That's pretty much what i've been thinking, I mean i've never seen Goku with sleeves where as Goten always has them.

Goten is actually quite popular for a flat character. He has nowhere near the same hate that Jason did when fans got sick of him and wanted him to get killed off.

Wow....even Gohan got a figure. It's the younger more popular one, but still. I think that hurt Vegeta the most. Gohan of all people got something and he didn't.
Why Dragon Ball Consistency in something such as power levels matter!

*Puts on his massive nerd glasses*

Actually, there's a strong possibility just one guy who disliked Jason cheated the system they setup to get Jason killed instead of it being this massive movement.

I'm really looking forward to tonight's episode. I can see this Arc lasting for about 20 episodes, seeing as though Toriyama-Sensei has not long finished writing it, and had been doing so since last Autumn. I'm still not entirely sold on an "Evil Goku" but I suppose as long as it is entertaining, then that's all that matters.
I assume the office guys who pitched the idea were probably thinking of a way they can sell yet another incarnation of Goku for merchandise such as DBH.
