DBS sometimes feels like a big plothole.
They made the wish before Piccolo died to the androids. This is also true in the main timeline since Pilaf didn't know that Shenron could grant two additional wishes in Resurrection 'F', so he wished for youth before Shenron was upgraded by Denda.

Goku barely took a backseat in the Buu saga, at best he took a leisurely stroll round back while everyone else cried for him to come back.

Hmm... Good point. Teens look weird in DBS. Thanks for explanation.

That's what it looks like. The specials will take up both Super and One Piece's normal time slots. The One Piece one will be on the 1st from 9-10 and the Super one on the 8th from 9-10.

I made a bet with Alee9977 that Vegeta won't be beaten quickly by an opponent. If I lose, I switch my avatar to Vegeta getting beat by hit. If I win, he switches it to Vegeta holding Black by his hair. This will last a month.

It's hard enough to land that on a big visible target, and you wanna use that gun out of everything in their arsenal to snipe..

That's an in between frame.
Seriously, there was on bad part and one iffy part and the rest was fine, and yet people are saying the NEP looks horrible and think the episode will be the worst animated episode in months. I seriously don't get it.

I think because the best the animation gets is usually "Pretty Good" so when people see bad frames with no context they make early assumptions.

Gohan and Piccolo are going to be made to look bad and need the help of Vegeta and Goku when they shouldn't. Tien will appaer for 30 seconds to find the sniper and that will be it.

Piccolo and Gohan in the PV looked like Saitama and Genos.

As for Tien goes, its the perfect timing for him to use Dodonpa.

Maybe they will start one punching enemies now like they should have already.

What would the Dodonpa do so well?

I don't know how someone can sign this off, like it just looks offensively bad. This crap promo artist was gone a while but he is back with a vengeance! I am just shivering imagining the thought of him/her doing promo art for Goku's new form...

Dodonpa would work to snipe people.

Given how the episode have been mostly handled

Part 1: Gohan and Piccolo vs the U2 fighters.

Part 2: Tien, Goku and Vegeta help them.

I don't want to entertain this rumor from 2Chan in any capacity, so I'll just say this... I can't wait to see Goku's new form.

That rumour isn't getting any love form me, introducing the form right before two specials killing the flow would be a very odd way for it to happen..
