If we have Panzy playable, anyone can be playable at this moment, including the tournament grounds monk.

Since we got Panzy and Cheelai, we might as well get Roshi's Turtle, too. Nothing is off limits anymore.

Rildo, Ledgic, Ruudo and Mutchi Mutchy cannot be left out, eventually they must be included.

I think her Ultimate could be Vegeta showing up to do "MY BULMA!!!" from Battle of Gods - bonus points if depending on the Bulma you pick it's a different Vegeta. Like Saiyan Saga Bulma has Vegeta Scouter show up because why not :lol:

Though her Ultimate could also change the person who's saving Bulma depending on the era, Yamcha for OG Dragon Ball

GT Bulma could have a special ultimate with Baby Vegeta, Future Bulma has Future Trunks

I disapprove of the Panzy slander. Her and Cheelai are certainly more important than some random mooks.

If there's another major update like this, which there absolutely won't be for some time, it'll probably be released in conjunction with the Moro arc. Those are the characters we're likely to see next.

Anyone interested in Team BT4's Tenkaichi 4 mod ? Here's a new trailer for beta 14:

Rildo seems like such an obvious choice. He has a cool look, multiple forms, unique powers. Hope we get to seem in a non-Heroes game soon.

Hey, if they were willing to give VIDEL an Ultimate where Gohan bails her out of trouble (Granted, it's in the Budokai games. I forgot if such a thing exists in the Sparking! games) AND Bulla has such an attack in Legends with Vegeta (GT)? Bulma could totally make use of such an attack.

I have 15 missions left to finish mission 100; I really hope they update it with more missions considering the number of characters that'll be added in the NEO update.

I hope for something similar, however, I doubt they'll add more missions (unlike XV2), but they might tweak some missions by adding the new characters. Or perhaps, they'll just assume we'll play the same missions using the new characters, I believe this is the most likely scenario.

I'm down to my final 5 missions. :D I honestly didn't think I'd get passed 70-75 missions due to the increase in difficulty the further I got, but I somehow managed. The team I've been using the most is Ssj4 Gogeta, Super Perfect Cell, Kid Buu, and 5th form Cooler.

I still can’t believe Mighty Mask is in this game. Is “he” going to have a Super Saiyan form?

Didn't they go Super Saiyan as Mighty Mask, was that anime only? Or was that in the manga too

They did it in the manga too. That’s why I’m wondering if they’ll include that for the game.

Personally, I wouldn’t have bothered with Mighty Mask. That’s easily the most out of left field choice on this roster thus far. I would’ve even taken Bio-Broly over that.

I think their Ssj form as Mighty Mask will be part of an attack, likely their ultimate, rather than it being its own character.

Wait, maybe I got stuck in cave somewhere, but Mighty Mask is coming to Sparking Zero???
If yes, I wonder if he will have a ton of funny quotes between Trunks and Goten like in anime.

It's hard to take Gotenks seriously as an adult, but TBF he's awesome as character made for kids. I loved him as a kid, before he got overthroned by OMG serious shit Vegetto, but found him insanely funny and cool when ten years old (he mocks adults, he does whatever he wants, even middle fingers everyone... yeah.). While Mighty Mask wouldn't be on my wishlist, having more Trunks and Goten in what they do best and extending the fun beyond Gotenks is instant yes!

It is difficult to not see in some future more versions of G&T, I mean if we are getting Mighty Mask, then we must get, eventually, their SH/EoZ versions and GT Goten.

But we are not getting Mighty Mask, what did I miss here? :lol:
There are no sources to back it up, or are there?

It was announced officially, with images and a trailer. Just check the NEO trailer and even the game's website.
This is from the official website.

I'm surprised we always get Android 8, who IIRC was a pacifist character, instead of the more aggressive RR boss, Metallitron. He even comes back in GT.
