How can you expect any DB fan to calm down after this announcement? :lol:

This is one of, if not, the best news a Dragon Ball fan could have ever hoped for.

What if... Dragon Ball Super starts with flashbacks, just like Movie 14? :P I already can see a lot of rage since its very beginning, as I saw many complaining about that. The same way people also complained about flashbacks in Dragon Ball Kai in its debut.

For opening, I stated a wish on Boom Boom Satellites facebook, that I would love them make a Dragon Ball related song.
Because this is one of the few japanese music bands that is not shit and Ending for Gundam Unicorn and opening for Ninja Slayer were absolutely awesome.

EDIT: that was before I ever knew about Dragon Ball Super till today. But my other hopes are for nostalgia hardcore stuff like Kageyama.
But nah, we will get some J-Pop shit as usually.

Just found out about this from the Facebook news feed of all things.

This is what I had in mind as a dream result of the new movies, and it's come true! Never have I wanted to post that ruddy annoying "It's Happening!!" gif with the old guy. Plus, July!? So soon! Double Hooray!
Er.... No.

Goku didn't die in GT. The show sucked him off so much, it was impossible to keep him in the world of the living, so he ascended beyond mortality.

I always side eye the people who say "Now my kids/today's kids can experience what I did as a child!" Nigga, who gives a fuck about your childhood? You're an adult now and it was at least 15 years ago. Let the kids have their own experience instead of picking at a corpse.

I can't believe in just 1 day there's 34 pages, I just had a look and I think it took Resurrection F 8 days to get to this number. The hype is real!

Also, lol at how "Enemies stronger than Freeza and Boo" are supposed to excite us. Enemies have been stronger than Free ... Boo since 1996.

A) We start directly after Buu arc, ignoring the two movies.

B) We start right after Fukkatsu no F

C) We start right after the end of the manga

As Gokû is involved ((*^^*)♡) it could be any of them.

Mentioning Beerus or Uub would've helped.
Mentioning Freeza makes me think B.

IT'S GONNA BE BROLY 'CUZ HIS POWER IS MAXIMUM! :lol: (As an aside, the Broly hate seems to have become overblown in the past couple of years in my eyes)

I can't wait to see all of the Blue haired Broly fanart, trying to pass itself off as the real deal. :P

There is confusion over when "Super" is going to start. Perhaps it begins shortly after Buu's defeat, as Toriyama Sensei wants to tell a Story of what happened between Buu and the events in BoG.
Then at a later point, that story will finish, then "Super" will reconvene post "F". I'm happy either way, but seeing Goku SS3 and Vegeta stuck at 2 will seem odd, but I doubt anyone will complain too much.

Or, if it does begin straight after "F", then it means we get more Beerus, Whis and Jaco!! (I love these characters).

I predict it'll be after RoF. I hope so at least.

It's already been stated to start after RoF. At least that's the way I interpreted this: http://corp.toei-anim.co.jp/english/pre ... ducti.html

The press release says
"Following the recent events of the hit feature film, Dragon Ball Z: Resurrection ‘F’, Dragon Ball Super will debut in Japan in July 2015."

So it's either just post F, or post EoZ.

I'm hoping that the reason we're getting a new series now is because Toriyama wants to explore the 12 universes, and in movie form it would probably feel rushed.

I am a massive Dragonball fan, i have been since i first watched DBZ back in the year 2000. But i can't make up my mind if this is great news, or bad.
