"Dragon Ball Super" Series Official Announcement & Discussion Thread

アニメ超連動！「宇宙サバイバル集結編」登場！！

仲間を求めて地獄へ！！

Roughly translates to: "Following the anime, introduction of the "Universe Survival Gathering of Warriors Arc!!

Going to hell in search of allies!!"

To be fair, having just checked, that "arc" also seems to include, among other things, recruiting Bojack.

So I'm taking it with a massive grain of salt that it means anything for Freeza coming back (despite the fact that I absolutely want that to happen).

There is, unfortunately, a big whiff of bullshit to how unusually forthcoming and specific that episode title is. Were it something like "地獄へ," without naming Freeza, I'd be more likely to buy it.

It's not recruiting Bojack. It says 立ちはだかる強敵に挑め！！
Which means "challenge strong enemies that stand in your way."

So that still indicates that there is some sort of end goal for going to hell in the first place.

Well, that's what I get for not reading.

I want to believe.

Yeah, they need to put in stages that are not necessarily going to be included in the anime itself just to have more content in the mission. It was also leaked that Janemba would make in appearance in this mission via the V-jump scans. But the main idea behind the mission of going to hell in search of allie(s) is specifically stated to be following the anime so I would be pretty shocked if that did not happen in some way in the show.

I also just wanted to make it clear that there is no evidence/indication that previous characters will be reintroduced into the show. I am simply saying that in the next mission of DBH, the cast is going to hell in search of an unspecified amount of allies for the tournament of power and that this mission will follow the story of the show.

[Grimlock]

Huh, I'm pretty sure the "following the anime" is in the sense of Heroes doing what the anime is doing, recruiting members. Heroes will probably have its own "Universe Survival" saga and Goku will gather members, just like in the anime. It doesn't have to do with anything in the anime, much less what Heroes may present will appear or will have some kind of "effect" in the anime.

Also, why's the chat about Heroes in Dragon Ball Super thread?

Heroes has never done that in the past, but it's completely possible I guess.

People were talking about a certain character reappearing in the anime and I thought this information with respect to DBH could possibly support that idea.

I bet this random shot of a flexing chest from the NEP

Is a Universe 10 fighter.

Looks like the Universe 10 god

I would like for this to be signifying F return, it's not like if he dosen't return I lose anything, who thought he will in the first place
I will still hold up until full confirmation though

[kidhero1000]

People seriously think we're gonna get the Re-Re-Return of F?

I want to believe, but it's too good. Far too good for it to be Freeza's return.

[buutenks]

Bring back Freeza, bring back Freeza. And give him now a 6th form that is blue(pecking order and all). Lol

[Ki Breaker]

I hope freeza comes back for the sole reason he will not be settling down and having a mind so weak which can't digest destruction thoughts, like most of out cast, basically he will have the balls to get shit done..

[Gorou]

I ask me how many times they have to bring back that bulb with lipstick (that, from RoF, have nothing to share with the original character written by toriyama) before get boring all viewers

Only time will tell, it's probably around a 1000 times more before I personally get slightly bored of him

[Legion]

The mission comes out on the 11th. http://www.carddass.com/dbh/sdbh/news/35.php

The news about the whole Goku going to Hell thing was posted in V-jump, which I don't have a link for right now but there is a picture of it somewhere in the DBH thread.

I don't see it there.

Yes please

[Majin Jator]

Remember those leaks where Goku and Vegeta died in the future, and Trunks recruited the U6 warriors for some reason?. I think this is the same. I might be biased, though, because I think it's a terrible idea bout in- and out- universe.

Well thats the thing with ideas, not everyone's going to like them. You cannot please everyone.

IF they did do this or not, well Super has officially done a better job setting up this tournament then then the U6 one. Its got most of the cast and got some hype going (despite power scaling issues) and got us talking about the other universe fighters more this time around. A last minute change to the roaster would be icing on the cake.

IF they did do this well it makes for an interesting situation. Goku has been catching a lot of heat in this arc and his actions do not paint him in an entirely good light despite him giving all the universes a chance to survive.

On the one hand having F around Goku dose allow his better qualities to shine through since everyone looks better when standing next to an evil overlord who has mass genocide listed in his Hobbies. Also might show that he's willing to do anything to save the universe.

However Goku showing up with such a person put him in a bad light to. Apart from maybe #17, none else is going to be happy about having F there. It will cause a LOT of friction. Plus it makes Goku look very unscrupulous that he would bring such a person as part of his team. Its going to put him in everyone's bad books again very quickly, especially U11's, if they find out just who F is.

I think this is not a coincidence - it's highly likely that the anonymous 2ch user who posted that episode title took advantage of this Heroes information to give it credibility, that's how they work. Then he adds a new title to the list of previously known ones and a lot of people will buy it, real or not.

That said, as much as i doubt this has any trace of truth - i didn't see Newtype titles for any other show yet - i seem to remember many, many people wanted Freeza for the Champa tournament and thought he would be a logical choice, lol. So there's obviously a big crowd for that.

[namekiansaiyan]

All 10 have finally been recruited and only 3 said yes straight away and they are Goku, Piccolo and Roshi. These 3 deserve to do well now. It seems like the majority are finding fighting less important. Tien was the biggest surprise though.
