"Dragon Ball Super" Series Official Announcement & Discussion Thread

[Baggie_Saiyan]

Is there any proof that this will be another mini arc? I think this upcoming arc could be the rumor Toriyama announcement that will happen in December. If Hit kills Goku around December 18, it could air when Toriyama makes his official announcement.

No mention of 'arc' anywhere. No typical Toriyama comments. Re used art work. Plus apparently the Jump Festa where the next Toriyama arc will be revealed takes place the weekend this Hit episode airs. So right now it's looking highly likely that it is another Toei original arc or a self contained episode of sorts.

I think Vegeta, Gohan, Piccolo and Cabba will go to Universe 6 to stop Hit and find out who killed Goku. Maybe make it a bigger risk if Hit use a special attack that won't allow the Namek Dragon Balls to wish him back. Only the Super Dragon Balls can somehow to make it more interesting.

Please, I want these three so badly. Especially Goku's children. Kid Trunks had a lot going for him in the Black arc, give Goten and Gohan some love now.

[ChronoTwigger]

It's sound to me like a series of unrelated but hopefully fun one shots.

[MCDaveG]

Everything sounds awesome, but the execution will be shit, as always.
Potafeu arc sounded fun as well with the alien designs, fingers crossed for some Goten and Trunks action and they were even more useless than how useless they normally are...

OK if Crunchyroll says the new arc starts at december 18 than it must be true

Kid trunks still hasn't had enough love imo. He still hadn't had a decent fight for example

Why do people assume Yamcha will be playing baseball? There's no confirmation he'll be there.

The announcement and the shot of Yamcha playing baseball, maybe.

Nice try

Hit looks a bit like Cell.

So Gohan has to beat him

Stop mate....... me reading this is making me miss how Gohan should have been treated and how his treatment was poured into fcking Trunks.....
Man this is really making me miss Gohan....

Just let it go. Gohan is finished. They do not give two shits about him. It was a miracle they even gave a shit about Trunks. Maybe testing the waters with Trunks means they'll let more older characters shine, but do not at all even try to get your hopes up for that. The sooner it's let go, the sooner the pain stops.

We can only hope, especially if they're aiming for popular characters to sell more video game stuff and figures. See Vegito, Trunks etc.

unlike the anime where its mostly Zamasu with a new hairstyle.

I can't understand how some people keep saying that "it's Zamasu with Black's hair" when that's clearly just wrong. I mean, this is Zamasu:



and this is Merged Zamasu:



The Goku features are blatant, like the nose and even the shape of the head, very different from Zamasu's. The bangs are actually made longer, too.
The Toyotaro's version is hard to judge from that bad scan alone, as it looks more like a weird Goku with pointy ears for now. But i understand that some people will praise Toyotaro even if the next chapter is 40 pages of Goku taking a dump.

This is like arguing that Base Gohan and Mystic Gohan look drastically different. Merged Zamasu looks exactly the same as regular Zamasu, only with different hair. Even the clothes, sans color and belt, is the same.

I just saw Toyotaro's version. Looks promising. And no, I don't just accept anything by him. His manga just flat out shits on the anime, besides the pacing.

[DHM211]

I really believe that some people are only saying "merged Zamasu is just Zamasu with Goku Blacks hair" is either because merged Zamasu happened to get Zamasu's skin color, or they're just not paying attention to the facial details.

[spoiler][/spoiler]

This is taken from right before Goku Black and Zamasu fused, and right after they fused.

If you pay attention to detail, you'll notice the bottom half of his face is Goku Blacks. The mouth shape(smile), nose shape and chin do not look like Zamasu's.
Merged Zamasu's ears are also much smaller then Zamasu's. They're about the same size as Goku Black's, however,they're pointy, like Zamasu's.
I don't think it need to be pointed out, but Merged Zamasu also inherited(for the most part) Goku Blacks hair.

[TheMikado]

The actual faces are literally almost exactly the same. Even the dimples and the shapes of them. Almost any difference could easily be attributed to either the angle or lighting. This is not a convincing screenshot at all. Even the bottom of the face with the single dimple on the right side of he mouth and trianglur chin shading is exactly like Zamasu NOT Goku. Seriously I'm not seeing what you're seeing.

Yeah, they look the same. He has a point about the ears though.

[Beerus-sama]

November 27: Come here Shenron!! Whose dream will come true?
December 4: Goku vs Arale! The earth comes to an end due to their battle?
December 11: Challenge from Champa Let’s fight in baseball!
December 18: Goku dies! Assassination order that must be performed.

Here too, according to YounkouProductions.

A baseball episode with the Cats of Destruction?
YES YES YES!!!
We are going to see Yamucha's baseball moves
Gohan also needs to be there since he played baseball in high school.
Are we going to see U6 team again?

I just hope Beerus and Shampa get to play, if not then this won't be that much fun... I want to see the kitties play pleeeeeaaasee

Maybe because I'm a designer, but I can clearly see the difference in the face. It's subtle, but Merged Zamasu has mostly Black's facial features.

Would you be able to draw it up for us maybe? I've seen many designer who will be able to do a mark up and do comparison shots so hopefully you can help us see what you're seeing. In all measurable qualities of the actual facial features (mouth nose eyes) it seems to overwhelmingly favor Zamasu.

[kinisking]

I think the manga version with the anime's hair is the perfect merged Zamasu

[Beerus-sama]

I can also see it, its mostly the nose and the chin shape, with the shadows he has below the mouth and eyes...
But still, if you look it as a whole, he looks more like Zamasu with Goku's hair

Also, if you see the next episode drawings and other official artwork, he looks much more like Zamasu's face.
