Yes. X3
This could explain why he was freaking out in the trailer.
Oh I can't wait. Birusu and Vegeta know each other.
Meaning not only is it possible Vegeta might get to be Mr. Exposition for a bit, but he may also have an idea of just how dangerous Birusu is and what Birusu could've done to Goku (and the sorts of things Birusu could do to them).

This also probably raises the hopes for those who hope Birusu and Freeza have a history together.

Thank you so much!

Nice to see Buu will fight. Toriyama made him turn into a good guy but since then it always seemed like he was just too powerful for Toei to want to include him in anything important.

DB's kind of stuck in the upper-left-hand corner.

Currently hunting for scans of the BOG pages in hopes of seeing new screenshots.
EDIT: Could not find any. I guess I'll have to wait. ^^;

Oh man, a few of these new points have me really, really excited now. Android 18 and Buu actually getting to fight (though with the Buu point, does he fight alongside Gohan or something?) sounds like we'll finally get to see some parts for people that never really got good representation before now (at least, on the side of our heroes anyway). Vegeta knowing Bils, specifically having met him before, does seem like maybe the Freeza connection is stronger than previously thought maybe. Either way, Vegeta needs to start disclosing stuff he knows to the gang - every time something bad happens that he knew about to begin with, I wonder why he didn't forewarn anyone. :lol:

The preview screening has me excited too, because even more details are just bound to leak out from that.

Vegeta having (apparently) met Bilus does seem reminiscent of how in the JSAT special he knows all about Avo and Kado. Perhaps Toriyama likes him as the exposition guy? Seems like it might be more fitting if Piccolo were to know of Bilus, being an ex-god and all.

It is very 08' special. Vegeta doesn't tell anybody anything until he has to. XD (Like the fact that he has a younger brother.)

The only reason I can think of for why they'd give Vegeta the exposition role over Piccolo is because of the Freeza-Birusu connection.

So the new guides are going to be rehashed Daizenshuu with some information, huh? I wonder if that's good idea. Wouldn't that caused Daizenshuu to become less collector's item?

This is all awesome info, if true. Which character will be eating out of a KFC bucket? It's gotta be either Goku or Buu.

And hell yes to a complete color manga!

KFC.
*Is immediately reminded of TFS' http://sharkrobot.com/t-shirts-c-17/kfd ... -till-12-8 from the Movie 5 ep*.
It's gotta be Goku.

But then..cats eat birds too...I guess you could have both him and Birusu eating it.

The real question is.... does Colonel Sanders go Super Saiyan, or does he have the Elder Kai-unlocked abilities?

Does it really make sense for Vegeta to know the god of destruction who is 1000x more powerful than Majin Buu, I mean he was pretty damn afraid of the Ginyu Force...

It's possible he thought he was going to be asleep for more like centuries than decades.

Not sure what that has to do with anything. Why shouldn't he have been afraid of a bunch of guys stronger than him, just because he knew that somewhere out there was someone way stronger than them? I mean, we know he was well acquainted with Freeza, but was still scared of Ginyu and co.

I wonder if this will be resolved with the God of Destruction realizing having Earth around is better for him? Destruction certainly follows Goku and the gang,

It reminds me of something I've seen in comics and other places.

For instance, Ares, God of War, obviously loves war, death, and destruction, but he doesn't want to cause the "war to end all wars". Why? Because then there would be no war.

Reminds me of something Commander Zaraki says in Bleach. :lol: "Dying's no fun, you can't fight when you're dead" or some such.

Now I want a Dragon Ball villain voiced by Tachiki Fumihiko. :(
