"Dragon Ball Super" Series Official Announcement & Discussion Thread

[Mnich]

OMG OMG OMG OMG!!! I can't believe it! Is this really happening?

[Noah]

OMG!

Will Toriyama finally bring us the actual canon after EoZ

WE CAN IGNORE GT FOR GOOD?

NO MORE UNIVERSE GRAND TOUR AND ALL THAT PAST BULLSH**? F*CK! Even though I liked SSJ4 concept, just YES! YES!

But... They might take stories from the last movies (BoG, RoF) so no more blonde... Just lame SSJG and SSJGSSJ... Yeah, not hyped that much

[pappy]

Oh my goodness and a plethora of swear words, Chioka Kimitoshi is the series director. Best series director confirmed.

Can you fill us in on some of the stuff he or she has done? Any highlights?

[UpFromTheSkies]

Here's hoping Jaco is in the serious in some way.

If he is he better get some actual introduction. The way it's done in ROF sounds awful.

He does need a better introduction, maybe they could give him his own manga and vcomic... oh wait...

Dragon Ball AF fanarts and fake rumors finally vindicated after all these years

That's not how proper storytelling works. Not to mention how widely UNAVAILABLE Jaco manga is and why most people have no clue who is he

[Sshadow5001]

Ok so I've been hearing rumours that they're making another series or weeks now off different people and I didn't believe a word of it. If I didn't read it on Kanzenshuu then it probably isn't true... Then this pops up.

Was there a leak or something weeks back that I didn't know about?

But Dragon Ball is a Japanese property and Jaco is widely available in Japan.

No, there's been rumors popping up of a new series since 1997. There are, however, a few people who I think knew about this, but they wouldn't have told anyone.

[SSJ God Gogeta]

So I wake up to find that my inbox has exploded with news of a new DB anime.
Huh.
Cool.

Can't wait for more details on this.

It's also widely available in the US. If you're a big Dragon Ball fan, and follow Jump comics, you're aware of Jaco.

It was just in some voice chats while playing Xenoverse. I told em that it's very unlikely but I bet there gonna be like "See I ****in told you man" which will be annoying for a while.

Holy hell!!!!!

[Nex Carnifex]

don't get your hopes up, it's animated by neo Toei, you know the ones that ruined One Piece.

Japanese property made with world-wide distribution in mind where aquiring Jaco manga legally is a joke. That's beside the point anyway, wthin the movie he should've been properly introduced even if everyone in the world recieved manga copy

[Bardo117]

HOnestly how can yall consider this canon and not GT lol

[Noah]

HOnestly how can yall consider this canon and not GT lol

What you mean?

[Zephyr]

This is something to wake up to, alright.

Really hoping they capitalize on the Makaioshin, DBO backstory bits, or the 12 Universes thing.

Also poor TFS. They'll never finish the series now.

[Eire]

Oh, so it explain this biological phenomen that appeared on my palm overnight.

We will have new DB series... and I will have a cactus on my hand

Does anyone know how to remove cacti? It's not bad, blooming and all, but it stings when I try to eat.

[EXBadguy]

Or GT remake?

PLEEEASE let it be that!

Why do people want GT remade so badly? Why can't have new and original stuff for once. Sometimes I feel like DBZ fans like the same old thing and hate on anything that is new. The series gets boring if they always rehash and do the same things over again.

Lemme rephrase, I wish this was a "retcon version" of GT. A series where the new generations steps up, have either Uub or Pan becomes the main character, Syn Shenron becomes the main antagonist of the whole thing, have his and the other shadow dragon's existence be a more reasonable, assigning Dr Gero and the other dragons to do his bidding, and have Syn's character be more fleshed out than just an evil character. Also, I want the shadow dragons to use human bodies as vessels.

Oh, I don't want another remake, hell no!

[bleed0range]

I saw this on Facebook and immediately thought it was some fake post as usual, I was ready to reply to point that out... but then I saw that it was REAL.

OH.

MY.

KAME!!!


Seriously? A for real-real actual new Dragon Ball ANIME!!??!?! With a story from AKIRA TORIYAMA. The impossible has happened. Pigs are flying. Hell has frozen over (and Freeza must be very cold). I did a little jump and a skip at this news. I cannot believe it! This is a great time to be a Dragon Ball fan!!
