Re: Official Announcement Thread & Discussion
I'm surprised no one made the obvious joke about Goten and Trunks fusing...
But anyway, at least we'll get to see a (possibly) teenaged Gotenks.

Well, I got it. Euphemism, euphemism everywhere! YAY! I was actually waiting for confirmation to put it on the "Trans/Gay/Bi Villian" thread but that thing took a sudden turn for the worst right now.

Gohan telling Goten he is missing out...

Why must he be a plagiarist (or caught plagiarizing...lol)!? He could have been the composer for Super.
Tim Duncan is dope and forever.

I'm quite fond of the original Yamamoto stole from too:

"Dragon Ball once became a thing of the past to me, but after that, I got angry about the live action movie, re-wrote an entire movie script, and now I'm complaining about the quality of the new TV anime. It seems Dragon Ball has grown on me so much that I can't leave it alone." - Akira Toriyama on Dragon Ball Super

Yeah, I love Yamamoto's Stratovarius rip-offs, too. They were awesome. You know what else I also love? Incarnate by Nick Simmons. Oh, wait a minute...fadeddreams5 wrote:I must say, I LOVE Yamamoto's Stratovarius rip-offs:

That was not a translation, just Beerus-sama commenting on Goten's line about getting to do the fusion with Trunks again.soulnova wrote:Beerus-sama wrote:No Goten, don't be happy about making fusion with Trunks again
(悟天) ワ~イ、又いっぱいトランクスくんとフュージョンするんだ!, theres more in life than just fusing with him...
Ah... ahaha... HAHAHAHAAHA xD
Please I need confirmation!!
There's no "Gohan telling Goten he is missing out".

Re: Official Announcement Thread & Discussion
Again, Saikyo Jump comes out today in Japan and they are supposed to have information on Super. Whether it's new information or not is an entirely different story. Seeing how the book is out though and nothing has been running rampant around the web yet, I'm going to guess it may all be recycled? Still, we get cute SSGSS Saiyans...

Re: Official Announcement Thread & Discussion
Oh wow. I didn't know this one was his. I always wondered why the style felt so different. It certainly made Trunks scene quite memorable.fadeddreams5 wrote: He also made (plagiarized) one of the most memorable themes in the original Japanese version:

Re: Official Announcement Thread & Discussion
I wonder if Toei even has any Super material yet? Do they really have it all figured out, or are they making this on the seat of their pants like the original Majin Buu arc. Hell, for all we know, Toriyama didn't even send in his story for Super yet; just pitched the idea and said "Gimme some time, I swear I'll give you some ideas and designs!" Before we knew it, he slipped into his old habits. Good ol' Toriyama.

Re: Official Announcement Thread & Discussion
As it is Toei, I wouldn't put it past them not to have stuff done that one would think would be done by now. >_>
Regardless, I'm still incredibly excited about Super.
Can't wait to get some more news; whenever it happens. ^^;

Re: Official Announcement Thread & Discussion
The original press release says that the story Toriyama submitted was really good. Episode #1 is probably still being animated, though. Assuming Episode #1 premiers the first week of July then it probably isn't finished yet, especially if it's going to have any good action cuts.NeoKING wrote:I wonder if Toei even has any Super material yet?

Re: Official Announcement Thread & Discussion
I'm a bit cautious because a similar, but different, logo was used prior to this story and I honestly liked that one better. So if that's the real, final logo, I'm a bit disappointed. I was really hoping for something closer to Kai's logo, but toned down a little in terms of its energy. However, this potential logo for Super feels like it's lacking too much energy...
Re: Official Announcement Thread & Discussion
I honestly don't see any logo in that link.

Re: Official Announcement Thread & Discussion
I don't see it as a logo just like I don't think that image of Goku is actually taken from 'Super'. I hope it's not the logo anyway, because it's not very creative!
Nice to have the start date confirmed anyway.

Re: Official Announcement Thread & Discussion
That can hardly be considered a "logo". Logo fonts tend to be more stylized, I think that's simply WSJ identifying the subject they were talking about on that page.

Re: Official Announcement Thread & Discussion
You are correct. It is one of the first promotional artworks we had for Boo Saga Kai. Interesting page IF that logo turns out to be final, though. July 5th? It's getting very close!!Metalwario64 wrote:It's from Kai.BlackCatScott wrote:I don't think that image of Goku is actually taken from 'Super'.
