Ah, I get you. I'll probably watch the entire series dubbed with my brother. And I'll do my best to not say "OH HEY GUESS WHAT PICCOLO LOSES TO FROST oops." :D

Anyone think we'll get summaries this time?

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.

The next few episodes. They usually get released around the beginning of each month. Last month we didn't get any.

For upcoming episodes. Typically some of the anime magazines will have listings of titles, staff, and summaries for the upcoming month's episodes. But we haven't seen anything that detailed so far for the Trunks arc, just the shortened TV listing titles. It's possible they really are trying to keep this arc as surprising as possible by not releasing much information ahead of time.

It's possible that Funimation could be waiting for the later blu-rays to be release, so that it will have better looking animation when they air it on TV.

Any idea when the next soundtrack CDs will get released? I'm really digging the Goku Black arc tracks and I'd love to get my hands on clean versions of them not ripped from episodes.
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.

I'm the same boat that we won't get any summaries for 50-53. (unless we already did?)

We got one for 50 earlier than usual via the Weekly Jump leaks and the Toei website's preview stuff or whatever, but nothing like what we usually get from Newtype or newspapers for multiple episodes at once.
Direct translations of the Korean DB Online timeline and guidebook.
My personal "canon" and BP list. (Coming Soon)

Dragon Ball was always a kid series and fans should stop being in denial.

Is it on a weekly basis or monthly? I thought it was every week?

Approximately weekly by the way things are going. Chapter 3's release should confirm a time frame.

Will likely be weekly until they catch up, and then they'll just simulpub as normal.

Still can't read it, seriously, this is the Internet era, let me read what I want regardless of where I am!

No announcement yet, but it's probably happening soon. Maybe they're waiting for more new tracks to debut.

Bro, they can't, because they don't have the license to release it in countries outside the US.
Shueisha could sue, but would likely give them a slap on their wrists for not sticking to their contract.

I assumed so, it's just odd that in the Internet age we still have region restrictions on what you can or can't watch. Like how I can't watch AMC videos even on YT because I committed the crime of not being in the US :P
