The Mysterious Spiral Arena

Post by Lujin_16 » Mon Feb 06, 2017 1:08 pm

The new Opening was really focused on it at the beginning with the title Dragonball Super and at the end..

Something to care about otherwise you will be killed maybe ????

What do you think???

It kinda reminded me of the Bojack Tournament Arena where Trunks and Tien were fighting...

I like it personally, I've always been more fond of more unique and customized arenas over the boring flat ones that are the norm. They insure more interesting fights.

I have no solid theory as to what the deal is with this arena, but I'm quite sure it's going to be very purposeful and quite unique. The rules are also still a mystery. One thing I've thought is that the arena is a pocket dimension place beyond the even horizon of a black hole (kind of like the tesseract in Interstellar) somewhere in the space between the macrocosms. That might explain the darkness. In any case, I love that aethetic, its in major contrast to the Nameless Planet arena from the Universe 6 Tournament.

I'd like to know that too. I'd also like it if the arena could change shape. It looked like it was moving in the opening when Goku was fighting the Mutant Jaco.

True, it looks like some kind of racetrack, which means the fight will be more focused on movement or time limit.
