2.0 is supposed to be announced later this month and then broadcasted the next, right?
No.

Super is 99% gonna air this July and 70% chance it will be officially announced by the end of this month.
I called it that Gogeta, Bardock, and something Broly related would be in the movie before it was even announced that it was a Broly movie. 8)

According to Ajay it’s been right before but it’s also gotten a lot wrong

It's no secret that Toei has no shame with blatantly lying regarding the status of Dragon Ball Super, but worth adding this at a data point.

Here's Norihiro Hayashida (producer for Dragon Ball Super: Broly) at the 2019 International Beijing Film Festival being asked about a potential Dragon Ball Super continuation:

Translation (courtesy, again, of GovetaXV):
"Nothing is fixed now, Toei hasn't came up with anything yet, not anything about arrangements or when will it start.
We are looking forward to it as eagerly as everyone else. There is nothing that we can answer about it right now."

Shouldn't we have gotten an announcement by now? It is supposed to air in less than 3 months and yet still no mention of it.

The rumored announcement date is supposed to be the end of April.
July 9th 2018 will be remembered as the day Broly became canon.

All I heard that it was in April, not necessarily a particular time.

There were also talks about December, January, and now possibly May. It seems like people are throwing random dates around to see what sticks.

The translation makes it unclear. From the looks of this text, he either knows that the anime is back but doesn't know a date or doesn't know anything about 2.0 but is 100% sure it's coming back.

I'm 98% sure Geekdom or Ajay said something about Super happening late April. I know it isn't even the 20th yet but I hope (if they did say it) they don't go back on it at the last minute.

Ajay's sources should come in to play. If there really isn't anything in April now would be the perfect time to double check with them about the announcement. It Saves us the disappointment.

They’ve only been saying that they THINK it will be announced late April around the DBZ 30th anniversary. Never anything about it being info from their sources. Its just an educated guess. So if its wrong, people shouldn’t blame them. Heck, Geekdom’s specifically been saying late April AND May the latest.

It will probably be announced when we least expect it. Z's 30th anniversary is on Friday so maybe then ?

Least expected would be more like three days after.

Lol, you say least expect it and then list the day where most of the db fandom is expecting it. Not trying to come off as a prick btw. Just found that kinda funny.

Tbh, the best bet is too expect the announcement anywhere between late April and mid May.

MAYBE until May 21st for V-Jump but i personally think thats a little too late.

I guess I should've separated those 2 more. :lol:

What I mean is that it would make sense to announce the return of Z's sequel on it's 30th anniversary but knowing Toei it will probably be on some random day through a simple press release.

So, we're coming up on the 26th - what's everyone's final bets? Both @YonkouProd and @dbs20191 on Twitter, who have been seen as reliable so far, seem to be hinting at an April 26th announcement. Are we all expecting it or will the 26th be another dud?

It makes sense to announce it on a big event such as the 26th...but knowing Toei, I won't be surprised if they just announce it on a random day.
