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

Trust me, I'm millenial and a designer.
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!
I really hope Hironobu Kageyama returns this time.
STOP DODGING HIM TOEI!!!

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'm just about done with the concept of reboots and making shows that were products of their time and impactful "new and sexy" and in line with modern tastes and sensibilities. Let stuff stay in their era and give today's kids their own shit to watch.
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 wait to see all of the Blue haired Broly fanart, trying to pass itself off as the real deal.
"Kenshi is sitting down right now drawing his mutated spaghetti monsters thinking he's the shit..."--Neptune Kai "90% of you here don't even know what you're talking about (there are a few that do). But the things you say about these releases are nonsense and just plain dumb. Like you Metalwario64"--final_flash
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).

The Dragonboxes are like a middle aged woman who still looks good through simply taking good care of her skin and body with maybe a tiny bit of makeup while the Orange Bricks are like a middle aged woman who get's 50 tons of botox, makeup and plastic surgery in order to look younger and as a result looks even worse. ~ ringworm128 Still recording Toonami broadcasts on VHS after all these years! #1 Paikuhan fan!

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.
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."

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.
