Who needs fusion. Introducing the newest JM card, Beerus:GT. Though the original would have been more than enough.

To be fair the only other SSJ4 I really want to see is Gohan, Vegetto would be interesting and cool but I don't think he's necessary though neither is Gohan but he's the one I'd pick above everyone else.

So, Cardass is still active alongside Heroes which is like different game??? And still gets updates??? I thought that Heroes is the same Cardass, only updated version like they did with Cardass games before, only that it has different name now.

There are a couple more pages beyond these, but nothing really of interest. New CAA being introduced though. "Sparking Merger" or something, I don't know how it will be translated.

Also, see,s we might be getting acknowledgement of 23rd Budokai Piccolo and Goku? Kinda hard to tell, but we at least can tell Piccolo will be getting his giant form, even if it isn't in that early art style.

Fantastic showing, I'm quite surprised that Heroes hasn't run out of characters yet and at this point I'm slightly disappointed that we haven't seen Farmer w/Shotgun yet.

Wow, they really are going all out with the movie 2 stuff if they're even including the Saibamen variant things.

They are nowhere near to running out of characters, there are still entire arcs that can be covered.

As for Biomen, not really surprised, they've been including pretty much every single henchmen apart from a few exclusions, like Yakon. Seriously, what's the deal with that?

Not only Goku looks exactly the same as he does in DBZ, he is also not a teen, since he is 19 years old, an adult.

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.

Um... nineTEEN is still a teen.

Plus, the age of adulthood in Japan is 20.

Isn't 18 the age that someone is considered an adult in US as well?

I guess it's OK then calling him an adult... but still, he looks the same. The only changes that he went through are because of Toriyama's style changing.

Depends on where in the U.S. Most states declare you an adult at 18, but a few of them do so at 19, and Mississippi and Puerto Rico do at 21.

Being a teen and being an adult are not mutually exclusive, when the age of majority is under 20.

I see... well, I'm used to knowing that to be an adult you must be above 18, like it is in Greece.

Anyway, back to Dragon Ball Heroes now!

The first story arc takes place in September, according to guide books. Eight months later, when the Tenka'ichi Budoukai is, places us in the next year. This would make Gokuu thirteen or damned near it. Six more years makes Gokuu nearly nineteen, if not.

Well 23rd World Tournament Goku would just be the Z Goku but with a different Gi, Round eyes and a different Moveset.

Working things that simply causes problems though, as the Dragon Balls wouldn't have been recharged after those 8 months.

Also, if you count Jaco into the mix, things get a bit messier. Dragon Ball starts in AGE 749, Jaco takes place 10 years before that, and Goku is ~3 when he's shipped off from Vegeta prior to that in DB-. This means he'd be ~20 at the 23rd Budokai and a year older than we originally thought he was throughout the rest of the story. xD

I've always thought he was 18 and remember him just being a little slimmer and looking like a teen but maybe it's just me

Naw youre not alone. To me Goku had less muscle mass and he still had a young look to his face.
