I think everyday bullshit about dragonball is posted,but barely does it garner attention, like this for example. It was obviously made by some troll who hates GT (like those kids on youtube who go to GT videos and say it sucks and is non canon,it's not true..nore do the need to go to videos of GT if it's so bad-_-)

So... they're gonna summon Shenron through the Internet...? :lol:
Now, seriously, I still think Uisu is the real bad guy and has tricked Birusu. Wouldn't surprise me if Birusu and Goku teamed up in the end against Uisu.

I also think there's more to Uisu's character/motivations than they've let on.
Hoping we get something juicy from VJump on Thursday.

Twitter is loving those KFC colonel cosplays, if you search there for Goku in kanji most of what you get are those KFC statues.

Everyone on Twitter seems to love the Moji Maker as well. :P

EDIT: So Shoko Nakagawa posted something on her blog about the movie. I think it's about her seeing it, but I'm not sure:

Yep: she saw it. She says she's not going to spoil it, and that it has to be seen in theaters, but as you can tell by the sheer number of exclamation marks, she's pretty overwhelmed by all of it.

That excitement is contagious; I wanna see the movie even more now. X3
All those exclamation points.

While I'm really anxious for spoilers, I do appreciate that she's mentioned not wanting to be the one to give any of them away. (I'm sure other sources will eventually do so once the early-previews on the 12th and 16th happen).

Well, I wonder if this is a late posting on her part in regard to seeing the film a few weeks ago when Toriyama did or if she's seen a more complete cut now? Although, I find it hard to believe she's that genuinely excited. Damned Japanese Idol system and their mind games...

Now that I've seen this promo for the OP "Mast Pen" http://youtu.be/EJN7fa4FKH0 I kind of want an ad like it for those pen-point balls BOG is promoting as gifts.
The Mast Pen ad is so absurdly, gloriously, over the top. X3 I can't tell if it's being serious or parodying something.


Also, really hoping for even at least a tiny bit of new plot info (or new screenshots) in this month's VJump. I feel so starved for plot-updates. @_@

Both are aliens sent to Earth shortly after birth to escape the destruction of their homeworlds; both possess super-strength, flight, super-speed, heightened senses and the ability to cast energy blasts. But the crucial difference between them lies not only in how they view the world, but in how the world views them.

Superman is, and always has been, a symbol for truth, justice, and upstanding moral fortitude–a role model and leader as much as a fighter. The more down-to-earth Goku has no illusions about being responsible for maintaining social order, or for setting some kind of moral example for the entire world. Goku is simply a martial artist who’s devoted his life toward perfecting his fighting skills and other abilities. Though never shy about risking his life to save either one person or the entire world, he just doesn’t believe that the balance of the world rests in any way on his shoulders, and he has no need to shape any part of it in his image. Goku is an idealist, and believes that there is some good in everyone, but he is unconcerned with the big picture of the world…unless it has to do with some kind of fight. Politics, society, law and order don’t have much bearing on his life, but he’s a man who knows right from wrong.

That is so... I don't even know what to say, it made me laugh. :P I'd hope it's parodying something, but i'm not sure. :lol: "THIS IS A PEN!"

Yeah, everyone in Japan is excited.... You can't want that somebody will say about the movie, that's not released yet: ''Hmm, it sucked'' or ''should've been better''.
There is lot of exclamation marks, but that doesn't mean, it won't be mediocre.

According to the leaked info in the upcoming issue of V-Jump, a form even beyond SSJ3 named "Super Saiyajin God" appears and it is the other God in the title (God and God).

http://blog.goo.ne.jp/suzukugoku/e/1157 ... 82e029e5dc

This may sound like a lame rumor, but a lot of people who's got their copies earlier have already referred to this info on their blogs and Twitter, so I'm almost convinced that this is true.

That name sounds like something found in bad fanfiction but I can't help but be excited.

M-movie only power-up!! *_*
A movie-only power-up might come true after all?

If so, that's got to be what the 8th WCF mystery figure is.

*Hopes Kakamirrotto looks as cool as she imagines it could be, that is if he's the one who gets the power-up. My bets are on Goku or Gogeta getting it.*

:o This sounds awesome!

Now I really want to see the face of Vegeta after seeing Super Saiyan God Goku, while he is still a Super Saiyan 2. :lol:

Super Saiyan God? Perhaps this is how Gohan's Super Saiyan form on top of his "ultimate" state now called?
