The Brolli movie seemed like it was aimed more for U.S. audiences anyway with its heavy focus on "Here's Brolli vs Gogeta; remember the nostalgic Budoukai 3 opening? Here it is, only better animated!" and the giant Gokû balloon at the Thanksgiving Day Parade.

Wasn't Brolli taken less seriously in the fandom in Japan? I thought he was more a joke character to them than a serious one like he is in the U.S.


If they do go the movie route instead I'd like to hope it'll be less rehashing of stuff we've already seen though. Feels story-wise creatively bereft, even if the visuals are beautiful.
That is a misconception about Broly and Japanese fans, he has an established fan base over there hence why they made that Broly ride a few years ago and even from this new movie despite FP Broly's poor showing 8 months on that form is still ridiculously popular in Japan and has lead to a shit tonne of unprecedented merch re-releases as result. It is kinda crazy to think the only reason he has that form was because Shintani was feeling nostalgic!

This. Any marketing will be taken care of by social media/YouTube hype.
Even the biggest events need some form of marketing.It's DB so although a lot of people will know about it, they're still going to want to have 2-3 months to get the word out to even more people.
Most of the leg work is already done. DBS is still marketed as if it is airing in Japan (you seriously cannot escape it, the two DBS logo's, the Japanese text and even English text DBS branding is literally everywhere) overseas many still airing or in the midst of releasing U.S arc.

It is honestly nuts ever since DBS ended DB's sales just keep increasing, if they actually bothered to market DBS when it was on the air properly who knows how much more DB would be making!

Hopefully the show is announced as soon as possible. It’s quite disheartening to see One Piece having a soft reboot with Wano AND Stampede coming up soon while Dragon Ball is getting nothing at all. It feels like they are mistreating the franchise. Even MHA has a new show coming back in October AND a Movie already announced with Horikoshi being involved with it again.
I wished Toriyama cared like Oda and Horikoshi. He’s not even on serialization anymore yet does much less work than those two.
What soft reboot for One Piece?

And Toriyama would do less work since he retired from the franchise for 20 years and only came back because he didn’t want something like DBE to happen again.

I should have been more specific: One Piece’s soft reboot is a visual one. They changed series director, character designer and there has also been a change of colours I think. It looks very fresh and different to how it was before, sort of like how Broly had a similar art style change (although in Broly’s case it was a much more drastic one).

Toriyama retired but nowadays he’s back on working on the continuation of his manga so I hope he will be taking his role more seriously in the future because it seems like he’s done the bare minimum so far. With Broly’s movie they said a few times that he was much more involved and even corrected some of Shintani’s stuff so maybe he’s finally decided to become more serious about Super.

I wished he could at least write more detailed outlines and I hope he’s been getting way beyond schedule with his stories so that Toei can have a better idea of what will happen in the future and won’t be creating inconsistencies.

It would be interesting to see some scriptwriter from Toei write out a movie from beginning to end with Toriyama reading the script, doing some changes here and there/adding stuff, then approve it and also provide some designs.
I don’t think that should be too much work, and Toei could market it as a canon movie like MHA ones.

He’s more supervising the manga than making it. It’s even an open question if the latest manga story is even Toriyama’s. That and Toriyama can’t correct an ongoing anime like he can a movie or a monthly manga. Even then, he corrected stuff in the anime like Jiren’s personality.

Toriyama isn’t a detail person. He wasn’t even when he personally wrote his own stuff. He writes on the fly and seems happy giving story bits and allowing Toei and Toyo fill in the blanks.

That’s basically what he did with Battle of Gods. Except he rewrote the entire movie.

I'm not sure when Toei started production for it but Stampede was announced December of last year. Wouldn't these sources know who was working on Stampede at that point and that they wouldn't be able to work on Dragonball or did Toei start production for Super's return and then delay it? I don't know how it works behind the scenes but I just assume there would be more planning.

The only definitive prediction I've seen is from Baggie Saiyan about the upcoming merchandise releases. I've seen some speculation of Kitaro changing timeslots but I don't know there's any hint of that or if something like that ever happened before. Besides those I think it's easier to wait and see what happens after the manga's Moro saga. If it's another manga-exclusive saga or it goes on a hiatus, the anime may not be returning for a while or they're working on a movie instead for the next storyline written by Toriyama.
Yesterday Jan 2020's DBS Restuden (main DBS line) Volume 6 got revealed & it's more filler as they aren't even gonna be new figures since they're gonna re-use moulds from the previous volumes.

Not looking good at all.

One Piece's new arc merchandising is starting in October, 3months after it has started, so if DBS returns October absolutely no reason for them to be stalling in Jan... :think:

I still think that the statements from various VAs from foreign language dubs that they would be simuldubbing 2uper in October is an oddly specific thing for them to be misinformed about. And I see no reason for them to lie.

You're plopping someone into the middle of a book starting at chapter 195 out of 519 for absolutely no good goddamn reason, with very minimal opportunity to look back at much needed context and character/story growth.

I'm almost ready to give up. The youtubers couldn't come through (again) and every month more and more evidence points against Super returning this year. All we have left is SDCC.

I'm pretty sure they were on to something as Toei were marketing it to foreign markets and some voice actors said it was a thing. I think something changed that resulted in everything being delayed.

You mean that whole Simuldub thing? That theory has been tossed around since March, right?


Isn't a Simuldub a dub that airs its show close to the day it airs in Japan? In that case it's Adult Swim and Funimation's fault.

If it gets announced soon (as in the next 2-3 weeks) for October, then we'll know that maybe they were holding off until Toonami and other foreign networks aired the TOP.

I have a theory that I was going to bring up after comic con if it wasn't announced there but I'll just put it out there now, and hope I'm wrong. Maybe 2uper has been cancelled. The reason DB came back in the first place (back in 2009 with Kai) was to help promote their card games and move merchandise. With Broly proving that a movie can be a massive success and Heores' anime promotion being (seemingly) popular, maybe they've decided that a movie every 3-4 years and a promotional anime is all that's needed for the franchise. Video games and merchandise are the companies' #1 priority, so much so that MUI was announced and shown for the games before it was shown in the anime. Why waste the time and money on a weekly anime when you can have 10 minute short episodes every 2 weeks that do just as good of a job ?

I mean...I suppose it's possible. But, and correct me if I'm wrong about this, the foreign markets do make up a large part of DB's revenue, yes? And it's not as though the Heroes anime is being released internationally. So if that's their strategy...it's a pretty bad one.

Although Heroes isn't in foreign countries, other popular games and merchandise are, and as far as I know they're all selling very well. Between that and Heroes in Japan, they may have decided that what they're doing is enough.

Don't forget that the manga is still going strong. Whether you enjoy it or not, it continues to tell the Dragon Ball Super story every month, and it generates quite a bit of money in sales (the volumes are top sellers every time). It is absolutely a possibility that the anime has been dropped in favour of a manga accompanied with movies, since every bit of that can directly generate profit. However, we'll see if that's what their strategy is as time goes on.

I really hope this isn't the case but if by this time next year there's nothing announced then chances are it has been dropped.
