So from the supposed plot reveal from the man Toriyama himself:
“Dragon Ball Super” is a complete continuation of the Majin Boo story arc. It’s got a bit of post-battle aftermath, continues with the “Battle of Gods” arc where the God of Destruction Beerus appears and the “Revival of ‘F'” arc where Freeza comes back to life, and then, I’ve written a strange new story where they finally depart from this universe. They’re fighting against their neighbors, Universe 6! They’ll yell at me if I give away too many spoilers, so I’ll keep the rest a secret, but they’re chasing after giant Super Dragon Balls; I think things will unfold in a bright and simple way, that will be really fun and exciting!
I am pretty sure that never happened, unless nameless planet was in U6? Disappointed after reading that synopsis again with the actual arc we got. On the flipside the Black arc is going much better than I thought so I guess it is balanced.

I'm pretty sure the nameless planet Planet with Nothing was between Universe 7 & 6 somewhere. (Er, Dragon Ball Wiki(a). :?)

He didn't say they would go to Universe 6, he said they would be fighting against them.

No he did not, but he said they leaved this universe:

Yes, and they did. The Nameless Planet was in neutral space.

Now they are going to universe 10 so they are finally leaving this universe.
I'm wondering if they are going to use the super dragon balls on this arc or another one, maybe a future villain will destroy the entire universe and they will need the SDB to wish the universe back or something.
Also, are there any dragon balls on the other 10 universes? or something like them?

I really hope there aren't any more sets of Super Dragon Balls. While it is the easy way out creativity-wise, I hope they do not have the other five twin universes be that similar to Universes 6 and 7. They should have their own lore, their own magical artefacts, their own gods and demons, their own species and so on.

^ Spoken as it is. We need more creativity sometimes (although "recolors" don't bug me, I actually like them).

Well, Zamasu isn't really different from the kaioshins of the 6th and 7th universe, but I hope the god of destruction and his master to be completely different from Bills and Wiss.

I'd think each twin Universe has a set of wishing objects, since the Super Dragon Balls were created by a God character.

I wonder why can't we have the same singers for opening/endings in Super as Heroes, damn... They're just too good.

Are we too old to enjoy new Dragon Ball movies/series?

Perhaps there are different items that grant wishes? Like a genie or something... Hm, they might also have their own version of Super Shenlong and share it with it's twin universe. I also don't think we will stay in Universe 10 long enough to really learn anything about humanity. It's going to be more of a hey, green kai, are you Black? Nope. Okay then let's head back to U7 and go after Black.

If I am correct, Heroes' composer is the one who provided the opening for Dragon Ball Kai - Buu saga, a good song, by the way. It would be cool to see him once again for Dragon Ball Super.

I'm not sure who did the music for the Heroes theme, but the vocalist is Tanimoto for that, Dragon Soul, and Yeah! Break! Care! Break!, and maybe some more? I know the same composer did the music for the latter two.

The guy who sings the Heroes songs and Dragon Soul has an annoying voice and I hope he won't sing any Dragon Ball Super songs.

Same here; what about Momoiro Clover Z, though? I'd like to see them collaborate, even. :D

I'd be ok with seeing (hearing?) them again. They did the opening for the last three or four episodes of Sailor Moon Crystal Season 3 so I know they're still with Toei.

Flow I haven't seen anywhere lately, but I could just not be looking in the right places.
