Well, Iwasaki composed Dragon Soul, so maybe we have an idea of what to expect.
The first opening was pretty much about starting the journey again in my opinion, hopefully this has a more up to date message.
Indeed, i don't dislike Chozetsu, but it has a "let's meet up with our old friends again" vibe that was becoming out of place.

Yeah, even if it was the last arc as some people were afraid, Toei changing an opening is a sign they want to keep the series going for a good while still. Probably another full year.
Ops, DbzLover beat me to it.

Hahaha, my parents will be disappointed with these news, they love Chōzetsu☆Dynamic! :lol:

A new opening will definitely be a nice change of pace. Now I'm praying there's at least a small time skip that the new opening could fit to. (Kind of like the Buu Saga.)

It won't be shorter than 150 episodes and even that seems low when you look at how good the franchise is doing.
July 9th 2018 will be remembered as the day Broly became canon.

Start of next arc, because the date listed is the same as the first episode of the new arc.

You are right, also the producer says that DBS is entering in its new chapter, not final or anything so we shouldn't worry for that.
Everything is great so far, there is time for preproduction, the animation for these filler episodes is being very conservative and doesn't use a lot of staff, and we are even having a new OP and a little teaser for the next arc. I don't expect a lot for the story but I do for the animation, hope Toei isn't screwing this.

Guys stop saying this is the final arc over and over. Super is not going to end before at least 150 or so episodes.

Gosh, I hope is the same singer! I loved Dragon Soul, it was one of the best modern DB openings to the date!

Unfortunately, no. The singer for Dragon Soul was Takayoshi Tanimoto, not Kiyoshi Hikawa.

Exactly what I meant, mate, as I put "bold" in "Dragon Soul" in my previous quote :)

EDIT: Now I saw that will not be the same singer, sad :(

I'm glad to see that there's a new Opening on the horizon. I was hoping the song would be by Kageyama or JAM Project in full, but I can make do so long as Hikawa turns in good work. I hope the animation and directing are better than what Yamamuro turned in for the first Opening, too.

The PV has been posted on Twitter.

PVs?

Appears mostly manga based. Toyotaro's a busy man.

The other Hakaishins are also Cats like Beerus and Shampa :lol: (Atleast for what I could see in that teaser :P )
Not surprised :lol:

I guess by getting ahead of the anime Toyotaro meant he meant he was going to do chapters ahead of where he is now.

Nope, only two have cat ears poking out of their head gear and those are Beerus and Champa.

Looks like the other GoD are cats, unless Beerus is trying some weird new clothes...
When Super apparently shoves Goku down our throats:

From Toyotarou's manga preview on Jump Festa, we know this:

- Both Zen0ous are a thing.
- Every God of Destruction and Kaioushin will appear.
- Each tem has 10 people.
- Whoever loses, gets his Universe destroyed.

He did say he was surpassing the anime. It's also nice to see they didn't force the anime staff to whip out the PV and hurt their schedule.

It seems we will see all of the Gods! That's pretty cool. Are they all Cats?
