Oh god people still complaining about Trunks and Goten being kids. Let it go people. We got them older in EOZ, what's the problem?

The animation looks pretty good and like a lot the new opening :lol:
English is not my main language. Sorry if I make a mistake.

The scene with SSJ Goku could have been from a flash back, or maybe the first episode fills the gap between the defeat of Buu and BoG, then the next episode picks up after RoF, but I'm really hoping it takes place before the movies, at least for one season so we can see more gold SSJ before they are forever blue.

I'll repeat this again, why do people assume Goku can't simply go plain old SSJ? Is he mandatorily required to draw god level powers to transform?

So calm down!
Goku was 12 at the beginning of Dragon Ball and he grew from the 21st TB to the 22nd in those 3 years, he grew a bit when he was 15; the kids haven't grown anything yet, they're exactly the same.

But Future Trunks was much taller than Goku was at age 14, as shown in the special chapter. This is literally the same person in a different timeline.

Pre-F (?) means miniscule chance of ssjg Gokû? (If this is before they master blueper saiyan?) Maybe? Possibly?

If he isn't using his God powers then it would be Yellow.

I think he was either going to train with Goten or he was showing it and his other forms to someone unknown.
July 9th 2018 will be remembered as the day Broly became canon.

This can't be before ROF, though. Gohan has his EOZ look for the first time. This has to be after ROF, but not by more than a few months since Goten and Trunks are still kids.
Gohan's civilian BOG look is this:

He has barely slighty diferent clothes in Super trailer. Videl has the same hair. Goten wears even the same outfit lol.

Really disappointed. They better have a damn good explanation as to why he's going regular ssj instead of blue. And I don't mind that it's before EOZ, but seriously, why can't they at least look older? Even Gohan was aging between the early sagas. Shouldn't Trunks look how he did in the History of Trunks Special by now?

I'm pleased with the look af the animation. I am curious who Vegeta was getting ready to fight; looked pretty intense! And Trunks looks adorable in that jacket, reminds me of his outfit from the second Broly movie. Even though it's pre-EoZ, I'm pretty hyped!

Now I'm just hoping for Bra to show up. Please please pleaaase be in Super...

This was my biggest fear, what I'd thought would happen but hoped wouldn't... Instead of moving the series forward they're rehashing the old proven-moneymaker formulas.... How old are Trunks and Goten now? 13? 14? Their antics were amusing when they were 7 and 8, at this point it's just stupid. I thought if it followed RoF, they might look older.... I'll bet Marron is still 3 too.

Bleah. So disappointed....

He's supposedly absorbed SSG and it's a part of of his base form now, but we'll see.

Goku wearing average clothes is always nice. Preview looks good.
Retan wrote:Do you guys think this was all from the first episode?
It usually is, but could be from the first two or three, who knows..

I don't understand why people assume it's before RoF, just because Goku is seen using SSJ? And? We don't even know the context.
If Beerus is awake, it can't be right after BoG.

People just LOVE to jump the gun.

Yep! Goku in his farming clothes, Trunks fighting a dinosaur. Screams first episode, starting back up again type stuff. I'm fine with that.

They should release a press statement along with this teaser to clarify stuff. It's really annoying that we are less than a month before the premiere and we still don't know anything about the series.

I never saw this coming, I would be ok with the series taking place after ROF but this is not only before EOZ, it's BEFORE Revival of F too :lol: :lol: :lol:
Who say can't become a SSJ all of sudden? And Gohan also had his EOZ look for the first time as well. Gohan never looked like that prior to ROF.
