I'm seeing SS4 Gogeta in that. Though just barely...
I'm re-watching Dragon Ball GT in full on my blog. Check it out if you're interested in my thoughts on the series as I watch through it!

It's a shame these theme songs never seem to get official releases. Tanimoto's work has been getting better and better over the years so it'd be nice to give him some more love.

Including new stuff for the game/combat system called "Hero Scouter" and "God Jade"...whatever that is.
God, huh? With Masked Bardock I was kinda hoping for a more Online focused chapter for the game. I guess the God route really does make more sense given all the new gods. Still one day I hope to see Robo-Commander Red and Naraka.

It could be a little bit of everything. The supposed new God Freeza, More Beerus and Whis, the Time Kaioshin...and what if they finally reveal the Makaio(shin) and if Towa is one? I'm surely getting too hopeful, but it would all tie together nicely.

Also, sadly, it seems Victory Mission is digital only now as part of a Jump app service AND it's going on hiatus for a while. Really hope it gets collected into volumes, otherwise we won't be able to follow along with the story since Julian stopped doing summaries for it (not that I blame him).

This song sounds amazing.
This posted this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JjKiv15NmrA trying to find the video without the watermarks

Along with a short (horribly quality) video of jm8 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F3ZnlGki76U

You don't really need to look for anything. It's the same announcement trailer we had after the Broli livestream, except with the new mission title and a Masked Bardock and Trunks: Xeno image tacked on. That's why I didn't bother posting anything other than the title image.

It's fine. Just trying to save you from wasting some time. For people who haven't seen it, that version is good enough. It's not all that special anyway. :D

The JM8 trailer on the other hand is pretty nice, though I'm sad it's apparently so short (if that's the full version). Most of the regular animations lately have been ~60 seconds, with the first of the new sets being ~120 seconds.

Nah, it's way to short to be the full version, the fusion dance was missing anyway. I believe the guy recorded it accidentally skipped a part while recording it or cut off part of it.

I wouldn't be so certain, they also had to animate the Discross commercial and now have Revival of F on their plate. I wouldn't be surprised if they made it shorter to accommodate this.

If it's not the full video, they had to of put a cut version out on the floor. It's easy to see that there are no awkward jumps in the recording where anything was missed. It's a nice solid transition for the animation, camera movement and audio all the way through.

With a title like God Mission, they very well could go God Mode to save themselves the hassle of having to design such a conundrum.

Right give God Mode to the avatars that since the beginning was design to have TAILS. I would agree with you had the saiyan avatars NOT have TAILS.

What do the tails really matter? The original Super Saiyan God had one.

It's not like they were given tails specifically so they could gain SS4 later either. They were just there to cement the characters as Saiyans and not Earthlings back when the game was first released. Heroes' popularity is what has allowed the game to continue for so long, otherwise it very likely would have been canceled after a year, maybe two, and replaced with another similar game (like Dragon Battlers before it), and the tails would still remain nothing but a decoration.

Could they get SS4? Sure. I'm not saying they can't. I'm just saying the tails are probably not the deciding factor.

Yes but think on this. What SS state is more of a challenge to make for an designer SSG or SS4? The answer should help you understand. Plus the avatars are always supposedly less powerful than the originals characters(like Vegeta and Goku and such). If they give SSG to anyone it would be Vegeta first then Gohan, Future Trunks, GT Trunks and Goten, etc.. That is why I am VERY VERY VEERRRYY sure that Super Saiyan 4 is the form the saiyan avatars can transform into. Plus SS4 is a form that can be reach ALONE unlike SSG.

Not meant for you but yes exactly. Super Saiyan 4 avatars were in the making since the avatars got those tails. Plus do you know how MUCH an artist will get paid to create an ORIGINAL design for a Super Saiyan 4 Female. A lot I will have you know.

I'm just going to stop the conversation here. None of that is really how the industry works and is contrary to what we know about how games like these have been produced. No point in continuing.

Well when March comes around then you can be the first to apologize to me when the saiyan avatars go SS4 then.
