The TV Anime Series Dragon Ball Super: Beerus will be broadcast on Fuji TV in the fall of 2026

[Dragon Ball Ireland]

Probably a safe bet all of the Super TV anime will be retold. Only content I'd question whether or not they will be redone is the Broly and Super Hero movies. The former would push the Galactic Patrol arc into 2028 for sure, but the latter could at least be retold later since its set after Granolah.

[IntangibleFancy]

Ajay says that they're doing the next two arcs, too

I did?

Thanks for the correction, I think my insomniac brain made shit up.

I thought he did too. But it turns out I was thinking of Venixys and DBSHype and DBShype sourced Geekdom for his info on the amount of episodes the remasters are getting.

I mean, the Moro & Granola arcs take place before Super Hero, so that one would have to wait. To also say this, we don't know exactly when the Moro arc would air exactly, how much of a break, if any, each redone arc will get in between each other, how many episodes each will be, etc. Depending on how they schedule everything, it could still come out in 2027. I doubt they would've said 2027 if they didn't mean it.
As for Broly, it's kinda 50/50 on if they will. I'm leaning towards "will" considering that they have more shit to adapt from Toriyama's original script for the movie that they never animated, so that arc more than any other would be more worth it to retell in the show. And, Super Hero would be worth it to reanimate in actual 2D animation & add the stuff from the manga.

Any chance Vegetto doesn't appear in Future Trunks saga? He wasn't in Toriyama's napkin notes and they want to "stick to Toriyama's vision", so... No Vegetto this time around?

He was in Toriyama's notes, but only after the idea was suggested to him by Toyotaro. A character/concept that's appeared in both the manga and anime will undoubtedly be kept; the question is: how many manga exclusive concepts will make the jump to the anime ? Also, what about anime exclusive concepts that are popular and used widely in games and merchandise like Blue Kaioken ? Personally speaking, I think this new version of the anime will be closer to Toriyama's vision, not follow it exclusively.

[Nanatsu88]

From what they've said, the Frieza saga is already finished and now they're working on the Champa saga. If that's true, it's normal to think they'll continue doing the same with the Black saga and maybe the Tournament of Power.
If Beerus debuts in October and lasts six episodes, it's normal to think that Frieza would follow and there would be another six or seven episodes covering October to December.

Considering that Galactic Patrol won't premiere until the end of 2027 (October?), it's reasonable to assume that during the first nine months of the year, they will air at least DB Super Champa and DB Super Black.

These two sagas should have more episodes, since Champa has 14 and could easily be adapted to 10 episodes.
The Black saga has 21 episodes and could easily be reduced to 15 episodes.

Between the two sagas, they could be adapted into 25 episodes.

The Tournament of Power saga would still be missing, but it would be impossible to adapt it before the premiere of Galactic Patrol because that saga has 55 episodes and would not be finished until 2028.

With this, the worst sagas of Super would be readapted before the premiere of the new saga.

In short, it makes sense to do all the sagas in a row, and considering that there are eight months to go before the premiere, it is likely that they will have even finished production of the Black saga by the time Beerus begins airing.

[The Dark Knight]

The Tournament of Power saga would be impossible to adapt before the premiere of Galactic Patrol because that saga has 55 episodes and would not be finished until 2028.

It is worth noting that Moro is targeted for late 2027 (October like you said) at the earliest, so an early 2028 debut is not only possible, but likely considering it hasn't even entered production yet. As for the tournament, I think it'll be cut down to somewhere in the 20s and focus near exclusively on U6 and 611.

[Xeogran]

As for the tournament, I think it'll be cut down to somewhere in the 20s and focus near exclusively on U6 and U11.

And U11 has only one character worth a damn if they cut off GoD Toppo and High-Speed Dyspo. I wouldn't want that because it's still supposed to be a multiversal tournament. Making the other U's even weaker/irrelevant will just ruin the ToP IMO. In the original Super they still had some good showings, i.e: Anilaza, Maji-Kayo, Ganos, Obuni

[Grimlock]

the question is: how many manga exclusive concepts will make the jump to the anime ?

Off the top of my head, I'm only looking forward to that Beerus and Champa fight, that only Dragon Ball Heroes animated. That would be cool to see it. I don't remember if the retellings added anything else interesting.

[Scsigs]

Any chance Vegetto doesn't appear in Future Trunks saga? He wasn't in Toriyama's napkin notes and they want to "stick to Toriyama's vision", so... No Vegetto this time around?

Um...he appeared in both the anime & manga after Toyotaro suggested it. Chances are they're gonna keep it, especially since it was the best fight in that arc.

[PhantomSaiyan]

It would be especially stupid to remove him from the arc after he placed that high in the popularity poll.
Toei isn't stupid, just because they want to stick closer to Toriyama this time, it doesn't mean they will remove a fan favorite character (they literally love giving is fanservice) that appeared in both versions of the story. 0% chance of that happening.

[Koitsukai]

Vegito Blue is not going anywhere. I wouldn't remove Vegito, but I would change his placement. The anime did a good job using him as the strength needed to hurt the fusion so that Trunks could finish the job, and they even had Vegito struggle for once instead of the usual drill of fusions being so OP that they just dance around the enemy.

But if they are following the manga, I'd rather have him fight the army of Zamasus in the end instead of that brief and boring fight vs. a helpless yet immortal Zamasu the manga offered. The story could skip him and everything would remain pretty much the same, the sense of dread is already there, having him appear mid-fight reduces the last-resort effect they were going for.
Not to mention Goku had CSSB up his sleeve but chose to try fusion first.

[The Dark Knight]

This is NOT following the manga; it's going to be the same anime we got back in 2015, but it'll just look better and be more polished. They will seemingly make small changes here and there where possible to get it closer to the manga, but there's no way to make those big changes that are present in the manga without going outside the scope of this project.

There's no way to prove that. Considering how much the Moro arc relies on stuff from the manga, they'll have to add SOME stuff from it to make it more consistent. Either that, or change stuff in that arc.

Also, if the majority of the work is touching up the animation & cutting out the fluff, there's no real reason why they CAN'T animate a whole bunch of new scenes here & there to match up more with the manga. They're animating new shots anyways to bring the recut of the BOG arc already & that one didn't even require them to bring anything in line with the manga since the manga severely truncated everything into 4 rushed chapters. And I'm expecting them to animate Champa & Vados' cameo at the end of it like the manga had to introduce them early. I don't expect them to go nuts like changing the way Zamasu's defeated to sync up with the manga (mainly because the manga's version of events sucks & doesn't make any sense), but some scenes here & there that they believe are in keeping with Toriyama's vision of stuff from the manga. You forget that that's the mission statement of this project.

What a lot of fans believe is that this is going to be a 1:1 adaption of the manga, which it clearly isn't. I do agree with you that certain things from the manga will carry over, but it'll have to be within reason (budget, time, effort, etc...). There are aspects of the manga that can easily fit within the framework of the anime that they're using as a base, but a lot of what fans want would require a remake from the ground up. An example of something that can be changed is having Black use Ssj1 when he stabs Vegeta, as that would only require a simple hair color change. An example of something that would fall under a remake-type scene would be his fight with Vegeta from the manga when they both used their Ssj1 (or 2) forms. With all that said, there is the possibility that the scope of this project could increase to where such a scene becomes a reality, but as of now, based on what we were told, that's not within the scope of this project.

I don't think anyone believes it'll be a 1:1 adaptation of the manga. They were pretty clear that it's a recut of the anime with redone animation & some new cuts spliced in.I also wouldn't expect them to cut what a lot of people actually liked from the original version of the anime. What it's more looking like is keeping the stuff they don't need to change because it's telling the stories of the arcs, keeping what they originally had that people liked & they're proud of, & adding or replacing other shit with stuff from the manga. And I think most people know that.

I'd actually like stuff like Goku Black using base Super Saiyan before going Rose because that's actually interesting. I hope they don't change the ending of that arc because I actually like Trunks being the one to defeat Fused Zamasu rather than a dumb reference to the end of the second Cooler movie. If they adapt & expand on the flashbacks of Trunks training with Supreme Kai & Kibito to include maybe learning the Spirit Bomb from King Kai, then they can actually explain how he's able to use the Spirit Sword & that would just take some new animation adapting those scenes, which would only take up a small part of an episode. I've always thought that most of Super would be much better if it was a hybrid between the anime & manga's versions of events, taking the best of both & mashing them together in ways that make sense.

[Scsigs]

So, in checking to see if the Super anime actually says how Vegeta got SS God, I watched a few of the episodes that take place between the first & second arcs &, Jesus, this recut can't happen fast enough. Goku is WAY out of character in these episodes (Vegeta is too, but to a lesser extent) as is Chichi.
So, specifically, I watched episodes 15 & 16 & they deal with Goku acting like a bratty child as he wants to train rather than work the fields. I really don't understand what the writers were thinking with this. Goku in the manga & Z always acted more mature about these kinds of things. Him continually bugging Whis to be done with his lunch with Bulma & running from Chichi to catch up to Whis to go with him back to Beerus' planet is a far cry from how Goku would normally handle these things.
Chichi in the manga was also not really caring much if Goku trains, she just didn't want it focused on Gohan since she wanted him to focus on his education & by the time Goten was around, she became way more lax with the training. Even though, yes, she wanted Goku to have an actual job, I don't think she'd be as overbearing as she is in these episodes. Not helped is that she immediately snaps back to normal right after Goku leaves with Whis.
As for Vegeta, I'd say him wanting to get stronger so he can finally surpass Goku's power is out of character, but we all know it is because the monologue he has about Goku being number 1 during the fight with Kid Buu had him admitting Goku's better than him & this is a regression that was started by Toriyama since the Kanzenban rerelease of the manga. It would've been better if they played it more as a friendly rivalry with him wanting to keep in step with Goku & improve his own skills rather than just surpass him to satiate his own ego.
You can tell that they were REALLY stretching the original episodes to fill the episode counts for the arcs at times, as well as didn't exactly understand how to write the characters consistently. It doesn't help that after Goku gets to Beerus' planet that they start writing him & Vegeta more like how you'd expect, minus Vegeta's character regression.

In terms of them cutting down these episodes, they could easily just cut out the majority of the stuff that happens in them & rewrite how Vegeta & Goku start training with Whis with some newly animated scenes & cover it in just 1 episode. Cut down on most of the dumb comedy that makes the characters look like jackasses & keep it more serious. Obviously you can keep the tone light-hearted, but also more self-serious. Then end it on the Freeza Force flying through space to Earth to use the Dragon Balls to revive him after they're both gone.

Also, ew, the animation is just really wonky in places. I think I've only seen these episodes all of once years ago when the dub was airing on Toonami & didn't remember how bad it was outside of the moments people usually bring up. Some characters (Goku, Bulma, Chichi, etc) go off model way too much, event for shots where they're mostly static for multiple frames, even if their mouths are the only things moving. They also clearly didn't have time to add the highlights & shading at times, leaving them looking really flat, especially when other characters in shot have them. I'm really surprised they didn't have another team go through these shots to clean them up & only took care of the more talked about shots from other episodes.

So, in checking to see if the Super anime actually says how Vegeta got SS God, I watched a few of the episodes that take place between the first & second arcs &, Jesus, this recut can't happen fast enough.

Yeah, unlike most fans whining about this recut, I think Super desperately needs a "Kai" version. I sound like a broken record at this point, but Super is literally the last long-running continuation (Daima wasn't long enough) of Dragon Ball with Akira Toriyama involved with concepts and characters. For all intents and purposes, it is now the FINAL long-running sequel (or midquel) of Dragon Ball by Toriyama we're ever going to get. As a kid, I always wanted Dragon Ball to come back some day and now I realize, Super is THAT (even if it's not set after EoZ like my kid self wanted). As such, it deserves a remake/remaster that puts it more in line with DRAGON BALL and DRAGON BALL Z (especially leading into the Galactic Patrol and beyond arcs).

On that point, I want certain things redone better. And even though, this remake will cut down on things, I think some things need to be longer. For example, Vegetto. As far as I know, Vegetto wasn't in the original Toriyama notes for the Future Trunks arc, but Toei/Toyotaro added him in. Which is great. If Zamasu is a Kaioshin, why not bring Vegetto back to fight him considering a Kaioshin gave Goku and Vegeta the Potara earrings in the first place? But the fight was WAY TOO SHORT in the anime. I think in the remake, it needs to last a full episode or two. Maybe, I'm wrong in saying that, but if we got crap like Copy Vegeta and other pointless filler, why not make Vegetto represented better in Super? I mean, Gogeta was brought back too in Super: Broly and it was AMAZING. But Vegetto was sort of "blink and you'll miss it". I think this remake needs to really make Vegetto stand out this time, especially since this is most likely the one time he'll ever appear in Super (and maybe ever again in Dragon Ball).

Other than that, obviously cut out all the filler like the Arale episode, baseball episode, etc. It's fun for OG Super, but definitely not needed in the remake. And fans will hate me for this, but I think the remake should cover EVERYTHING Super has done, including the movies. Just for consistency and to unify Super for new fans. That means: Battle of Gods, Resurrection F, Universe 6, Future Trunks, Tournament of Power, Broly, Galactic Patrol, Granolah, Super Hero prequel, Super Hero, and eventually Black Freeza should ALL be covered in this remake, in my opinion. I know some people will be against that, but it's more so new fans will have a way to experience EVERYTHING SUPER without being confused by the movies, manga, and anime all having different continuities. And a 2D version of Super Hero would probably go a long way in getting Japan more behind that specific arc (if I recall, they didn't like that it was 3D).

You should really do some research to make sure your information's right. Toyotaro indeed suggested Vegetto be added to the Future Trunks arc, but there's no proof that he wasn't in Toriyama's outline when it was given to Toyotaro or Toei to use. I assume Toyotaro made the suggestion when looking over Toriyama's outline before he finalized it, so Toriyama added him in & sent the final outline to Toyotaro & Toei.
As for Vegetto not having better representation, he still falls victim to what Fusion did in the Buu Arc; that being that while it's good for a little while, it's not what's gonna get the W at the end of the day, despite Fused Zamasu using the same shit to get an edge on them. They also crossed it with Super Saiyan 4's energy burning causing Gogeta's fusion time to shit the bed on top of the dumb retcon about the potara being permanent only if 1 of the people is a Kai & an hour for everyone else. They really should've given Vegetto more time to beat down Zamasu & make it an actually decently long fight so that didn't happen too quickly. It's so dumb.

That first sentence is harsh considering I literally said "as far as I know". And based on the info you provided about Toyotaro suggesting Vegetto be added, I wasn't too far off. Also, to be fair, Super is literally ten years old now so it's easy to forget some things. And I'm a fan, not a reporter.

Also, I just realized as far as the dub goes, they need to get rid of Magetta being voiced by a "text to speech". It worked back in 2017, but now, it reeks of AI slop. This time around, Magetta needs an actual dub voice actor.
