Japanese Animation TV Ranking, April 11-17

The Dragon Ball Super: Broly film aired on Fuji TV on Saturday, April 16 at 9:00 p.m. and it earned a 5.6% rating, performing exactly Dragon Ball Super average rating.

So how much is that in viewership ?

Not sure on the exact numbers but the audience share of 5.6% is good for a movie thats been available to watch by other means(DVD,streaming.etc) for years now and is rebroadcasting in a late slot. For comparison SpyxFamily which has been a hyped anime adaptation had a 2.7% audience share in the same weekend also in a late time slot.

Alright, Thanks for explaining this to me

Really... no, Dragon ball GT was technically canon until it was eventually made clear that it wasn't anymore..

No, GT was never by any means in any moment, meant to be canon, if you say it was, it was a general consensus of the fandom, but it's inclusion in the chronology was never been put in the top of official mouths, producer Kōzō Morishita already stated of it being a original story not made by Toriyama, separate from the manga, a side-story, and that during it's production.

I want to ask something that can may be pretty dumb or out of time to ask, it's pretty related to the movie and also isn't.
Is there any of chance of Granola and Moro not getting a Animated adaptation? Like, Super Hero is released,, then later, the anime returns, but it skips Granola and Moro and it actually starts from a completelly new arc setting after the Super Hero movie, is that possible?
I've made a theory 1 year ago, that the chronology of Dragon Ball Super and the series onwards, would take the multi-media route, Resurrection 'F' doesn't have a manga counterpart in it's entirety, but okay, we got the anime adaptation, but starting from Super Broly, the things started to "change", no manga adaptation of a even single scene of the film, just that small summary between the Top and Moro, and no anime adaptation till this point, Moro arc started almost 4 years ago, and there are absolutely 0 clues of it and Granola getting animated adaptations, and Super Hero as well, nothing is leading to a manga counter-part of the movie, so my thoughts were, after the ToP/End of Super anime, if fans would like to still follow up the canon of the series, then they would need obligatory to consume 3 types of media, manga, anime and movie, so this would be the case: Anime (Super anime) > Movie (Super Broly) > Manga (Moro and Granola) > Movie again (Super Hero) > and so it goes.
Multi-media isn't something rare to see nowadays, Marvel's MCU chronology is following this route since 2020 after the end of Phase 3, there are the movies and the streaming series, both canon.
Is that possible? Or everything I've said is totally meaningless bs and the adaptation of these arcs is actually unavoidable? Not that I wouldn't like them being adapted, I'm just want to kill my doubt, Forgive me if this is not the right thread to ask something like that

The Moro and Granolah arcs don’t seem to be much of a priority for the people at Toei or Bandai at the moment. At this point, I’d be surprised if they received anime adaptations. Of course, I’d be surprised if the anime comes back at all. It’s been four years now, and there hasn’t been a single drop of legitimate news about it.

I think you are talking about a continuity being made up of works distributed in different media, is that right? If so, that's a pretty common thing from more than a decade ago (as far as my knowledge goes), at the very least.

We even see games included in a continuity made up of a TV series and/or comic books, we have a few examples out there (and Dragon Ball may be one of them). So yes, that's perfectly possible. If that's what you're asking about.

I don't know if it's their intention to follow on this path, movies doing their own thing, then the anime and manga having to "make do", sometimes by retelling the movie, sometimes continuing the series without the other one or two media... But I can't see them using the movies for their own thing, and then having the anime and manga telling their own stories... I think at some point they will try to set things the way they were back then (not before headaches are properly established, that is!).

That’s not how canon works…
Thats like saying Rogue One or Fantastic Beasts aren’t canon.

Them being side stories to the main story just means “this also happened” not this didn’t happen.

Nice design actually. Makes sense.

Honestly, from a business standopoint, it doesn't seem to make any sense to not adapt Moro and Granolah. TOEI would have at their disposal two full /completed story arcs never seen before in animation format, both outlined by the original creator (it's unclear if Moro had a proper outline but we know about it having direct imput from Toriyama anyway), with new characters and transformations which is just free merchandise for them. Uchida also said he was expecting a cool VA for Moro once the anime adapts the arc. The only thing holding it seems to be the fact that the TV series has not returned yet for some reason

I mean, I guess it COULD happen, but I don't think it makes any sense and it's not the same as skipping the movies since movies already got a proper adaptation in a better format and usually just get a new adaption in the anime format to create a sense of continuity

No, it's just a fan art.

I don't know the exact number but I remember reading that Demon Slayer season 2 premiered with a 9.2% rating and watched by 4.7 million households. A 5.6% rating would probably be a little more than half of that.

The fan did a great job though. It looks official.

We can either expect some new bio warrior like Cell coming out of the tank, or it will be like the hatred generating machine in the gaiden that created Hatchihyaku in that it generates energy and boosts Gamma androids with it.

Damn, I will get spoilered anyway as the movie will get to me with one year delay as usual. But at least, looking forward to visuals.
Looks like Legends on phones is gearing up towards the movie with promoting Trunks and Androids from TV Special, so I bet that at least Gamma and updated characters will get released eventually and wonder, how will the cross promo look in other games...
Dokkan as well, although I don't play this one.
Might be the rumored Kakarot DLC linked to this somehow? But the rumors says different

Spoiler:

Bardock TV Special

FighterZ is probably done at this point and there is already like the max full roster (and we already had revived RR of sorts in story mode anyway ).
Xenoverse 2 is a sure bet that it will get something from costumes to maybe one new character and maybe, PQs linked to the movie theme, as it now encompasses the whole Super series as well, from Beerus to Broly.

I hope either its done with dlc or they are working on a sequel it would be crazy not to follow up on that especially since Bandai has a history with DB of doing sequels sometimes even a trilogy if a game sells well.

[Kataphrut]

It seems like Gammas don’t have English voices in Legends. I guess it’ll be a while before we hear any news about the movie dub.

It’s a far cry from back when DBS was airing and every new character had their English debut in Xenoverse 2. Some like the U6 and FT characters were cast like a year out from their appearance on the show. Hit even had a completely different voice actor.

[Super Saiyan Swagger]

It kinda blows my mind that they released Gamma 1 and 2 as mute characters for the English dub version of Legends.

I know right? When Broly was coming out they had English trailers release in tandem with Japanese ones. None of that for Super Hero.
