Anything with Broli in Super is going to be 100% fake.

Broly :lol: :lol:
Article with an interview and everything..
They sure try hard to make it look realistic

I would actually like to see the idea of a legendary being returning .. not broly or Saiyans but of a legendary namekian..
Form universe 6 preferably..
Any race is okay actually

I can't see Brolli ever coming back in a movie after his creator publicly talked about how much better he thought Brolli was than Beerus.

Huh??

Also lol at the idea of Broly being shoehorned into Super. I actually legit hope this happens we can have the trifecta of Evil Goku, Future Trunks, and Broly !

She's referring to Takao Koyama's thoughts on Battle of Gods.

Anyone can write an article in Blasting News, they invent theories and always write in their headlines "Confirmed" ugh... the latin american editors have an obsession with Bardock and Broly is a waste of time reading their articles that often have spelling and grammar mistakes..

You have to give credit to his fanboys. There's not other anime movie-only character that comes close to Broly's popularity. :P
A world without Dragon Ball is just boring.

It never ceases to amaze me why a brainless, overly large, muscular, screaming simpleton of a Saiyan with no real intelligence remains this popular.

If they do make a whole arc out of Hit returning, considering his similarities to Jotaro Kujo, I could dig an arc that goes full on JoJo's Bizarre Adventure with its villains.

Agreed! Maybe Hit can actually kill Goku.
Don't get your hopes up on that one guys, they aren't going anywhere.
Why Hit killing Goku makes sense and a believable start to an arc.

But death has insurance in the Dragonball world my friend, there would be nothing to worry about. It would raise tension in the show, something that's been lacking a bit with the exception of the last few episodes of the FT arc.
I believe she is not worried about their deaths, but that would mean they will be off-screen for a while
Welcome to the world of fans of all the other characters.
If they go then people might actually like other characters and the interactions they have.

Killing off characters I like won't make me like other characters more. ^^;

At the least I'd finally stop trying to catch Super live and wait til later in the day to watch it. At most I'd probably stop watching it until they returned.

Blastingnews is a non-reliable source, especially when it comes to Latin Americans editors writing about Bardock (the worst of all kind of articles in that site). Google should stop advertising that web on their news section.

Completely true, also they write "Confirmed" in their headlines when actually their are talking about mere assumptions and theories.

Only head-canon as of now, nothing more.
Really? Zeno's name also means "omnipotent" XD

Anyway, by the hype, i think that he can really do everything.
I doubt he is Omnipotent since those type of characters are always 100% perfect. His future timeline version was unaware who Goku was and what was going on.

I think that would be more relative to omniscience, but I agree that neither he's omnipotent and his name doesn't means that as well.

There are some excellent threads on his character analysis. The character is surprisingly deep in what he represents but it's typically lost of the more simple fan base who simply don't understand. In the same way the Hulk represents the inner savagery of man, Broly is a poetic representation of the cruel and powerful saiyan race personified. The irony being that a saiyan who shed his saiyan roots is the only thing capable of stopping the pure personification of the saiyan race.

I usually hate when people throw around the word "lazy", but thats basically what I feel like Broli was. I think Toei got lucky with how popular Broli was, considering he's just some testosterone fueled screamer.

As far as I know, Zen'ō (全王) means Lord/King of all. Zen'nō (全能) is the one that means omnipotent.

Jump preview for episode 69. Surprised no one has posted it yet.

Goku dying won't make me like other characters more. I already know which ones I like and why. I'd love for them to have more screen time but Goku doesn't need to die for that to happen. If you think it does go watch or read Hunter x Hunter which manages to incorporate TONS of characters and give them all enough time to be liked while advancing the plot.
Currently watching: My Hero Academia

Last watched: Akame Ga Kill, Hokuto No Ken, Hokuto No Ken 2, Hunter X Hunter
