It's just Toriyama's F art.
It's Toyotaro's actually.

Really? I assumed it was Toriyama since it had the small muscles and Toyotaro draws Goku with larger muscles. Either way it's art that was made for F.

The fact they're using "F" at all is encouraging.

Fingers crossed. I'd love to see more of Tien, Krillin and Roshi fighting like they did in "F".

I'm up for continuing where F leaves off. More Gokû and Vegeta interactions like those in F are super welcome.

Then we all know where Dragon Ball Super will lead... Really, come on... We already have three events happening in the gap of ten years, no need to make a series in that time period as well. Continue where the original series ended, I want to see more of Uub and in the proper way, of course.

Even if the series takes place immediately after Revival of "F", that doesn't mean there won't be a time skip later. I'd rather spend some time with the main cast before jumping into Uub's appearance and post-Z material.

And if it's the same perfect combo: Toyble art + Tori script, I have all the reasons to get hyped. 8)
The ROF manga was certainly Toyble's best work and if he can provide that same sort of level for Dragon Ball Super, I will be very pleased.

Just as long as Toyble does the artwork and does not handle the story himself, it's all good by me, he mimics Toriyama's style perfectly.

I agree. You can tell he poured everything he had into making a nice looking product.

Those three events weren't enough? And what about the Bulma's sentence saying she didn't see Kakarot for five years?

Battle of Gods and Resurrection F felt like 2/3 of a new arc. They could jump to the end of the series with Uub to continue it, but that feels like too long of a gap in-universe. Though, that blue dogi does call to me...

What about it? Do we really care about that line anymore? The continuity of that 10 year gap is already broken by us being told it was a period of peace...except bad things still keep happening.

Ugh no more Goku and Vegeta interactions being the center, they're so tiresome and predictable. Let them interact with others instead. I'd much rather see more Goku and Chi Chi and Vegeta and Bulma. Goku and his sons. Vegeta and his children. I just want to see them play off other people than the same boring crap I already expect. Them playing off Whis and Beerus sometimes is a good start.

Nothing important. Kai is starting soon, and Super begins in July.

The fact that they're encouraging fans to watch the end of kai gives me a tiny glimmer of hope that Super may come after EOZ... But I still think it is more likely to come after F. Which I'm still ok with.

If it comes after F then my interest will dip massively.
