Wow these of f**king dreadful. Why. Why has this promo artist come back and why are they literally doing EVERYHTING now? Who. Who at Toei/Shueisha/Whomever is signing this shit off? It is embarrassing to see this garbage used to promote the show around Japan. I can understand them not caring and letting them do the international BD cover art for like FUNi etc, but to have this person as your main promo art guy to promote the show in your own Japan...yikes.

I wonder if he has two similar forms or if the promo artist just messed up his proportions.

Come on Arhced we all know the likely answer here...

Also I wouldn't read too much into these yet, remember the Black arc had a calendar image of naked Goku doing his bomb of spiritualism pose.
Uhhh that's an overreaction if I ever saw one... What's so wrong with these calendar photos?
Cuz maybe they look bad? What the hell is that Goku vs Jiren? That doesn't even look like Jiren!! To compare this is decent promo art:

This is how calendar art should be and this is the guy they should be using to promote DBS:

Just look at how amazing the Z promo art was back in the day and we're stuck with mostly garbage for DBS. Sigh.

So can we expect another trailer very soon? Or some new information about Goku's new form? You'd think that they would try to hype it up for us now right?

To be fair, this particular art style has been around even before DBS. I've noticed the bobblehead proportions years ago, and the tendency to make Vegeta and Piccolo look a little like gremlins too.

Also yes, old school DBZ promo art was really nice. Got a bit monotone with the sea of blond spikes later on, but at least the poses and proportions looked cool.

I wonder if we'll get some minor changes with the OP again this coming special (since the new season autumn line up starts this oct), like say removing the ones that got kicked out, adding some scenes and possibly adding Goku's limit breaker form (damn I love that title so much, hope they do call it that instead of something stupid again, but knowing Super there definitely will be a super in the title)

If Jiren is not the main final battle then they might chsnge it after that but it is probably the ending you should be anslysing a bit.

For example maybe look out how the Namekians and Bugs are presented in the new ending if they are in it.

The New form will probably be Super Saiyan something.

I share the same sentiment. And dude, that pictures you posted look awesome! The bottom one with all the Gokus looks so good, that artist should be doing all the DVD covers, posters etc...

Jiren V Goku is the climax main battle, the trailer said it. Fights after that may just be simple fights with overwheling advantage of enemies or participants taking advantage of tired players playin it like how Frost took out Krillin.

A namekian not named Piccolo doesnt interest me enough to analyze their exposure in the ED, but the bugs yeah they caught my interest.

Sadly yeah....

They said it was a turning point on the way to the climax of the tournament.

I dislike characters but still take interest in what they could do.

No, it literally said their fight is the climax battle, I already showed you the trailer that said it from way back.

I am talking about the comment from one of the producers not a trailet.

The climax for Toei probably means anything from Jiren to the final battle of the tournament.

They put him there next to Ribrianne, Jiren, Caulifla, Keru, and those GoDs, so we now can start assuming that warrior will be important in this arc?
Knowing Toriyama I wouldn't doubt this little guy ends up being the stronger being in the Tournament Of Power.

Having a so cool fighter as the strongest being in the ToP would be goat
That would be cool, but I feel like he will not have any kind of transformation.

Holy.... if this is legit, it would be the first time one of my predictions would be correct. Hurray for me!

Also: Neat! Guess they're the ones fighting the bugs. I'm guessing a fusion is going to happen with them too.

Intersting, but it might be fake, we have had fake images around the net before, so lets wait and see if it can be confirmed.
