I don't know how likely comedic reactions from him would be. (I thought Gokû's reaction to himself in ssjg in BOG was cute because of how he kept checking his arms, repeatedly, at the start. X3 ) Though I am always up for fun Vegeta reaction faces.
I don't know why, but the only way I can picture Vegeta's first SsjG transformation reaction is him checking out his behind first before anything else.

Is it possible that Bog has another arc?, where we could see Champa and ???.Since we are getting new ending from episode 13 and It looks like movie retelling will end at episode 13 too.

We probably we will get something between BOG and ROF. At least, I hope so. If they are doing a retteling, at least show everything (Goku/ Vegeta go training with Whis)Sodhi wrote:Is it possible that Bog has another arc?, where we could see Champa and ???.Since we are getting new ending from episode 13 and It looks like movie retelling will end at episode 13 too.
We still didn't get this Champa/Whis Waifu scenes. They can't be too far:

Re: Official Announcement Thread & Discussion
Can anyone confirm what the exact wording is when Goku says even Vegetto couldn't beat Beerus? I know he doesn't specify a form or anything, but is it more like "if we fused we'd still stand absolutely no chance", or is it more along the lines of "if we fused it'd still be really difficult" (implying a much smaller gap)? If anyone knows what the exact phrasing is, anyway.

Minute: 20
Context: after Goku regains consciousness following his fight with Beerus
Goku: “This ain’t good. The only way to get stronger would be to merge with Vegeta…and even then, I don’t think I could win.”
Significance: Pretty much the same line originally appeared in the extended edition of BoG. The word for “merge” here is 合体/gattai, which in Japanese is used to refer to both Potara fusion and the Fusion dance. Though in Japanese the proper name for the Metamorean dance-style Fusion is simply the English word "Fusion" (フュージョン/Fuujon), this is treated as a proper noun and the process itself is referred to with Japanese words for fusing/merging such as 融合/yuugou and 合体/gattai. Goku even introduces the Fusion dance as a 合体技/gattai-waza, "merging technique", when the concept makes its debut in chapter 469. On the other hand, the process of fusing with the Potara is always described as 合体/gattai, and not with the English word "Fusion" or the Japanese 融合/yuugou.

Thanks very much! (I suppose it makes sense that they wouldn't use the word "Fusion"; this current/new canon seems to have no interest in having Gogeta exist. At least not so far.)

Ahh so that Champa figure isn't due out until March makes sense. Guess that means it is likely we won't see him in "F" arc aswell.

To me it feels like they are setting it up now, and it could take place between BoG and RoF.Chuquita wrote:The way things are falling, I can see Uni 6 not starting till January. I hope they can keep interest up until then.

There's a slight chance they may update it in the 24/26 areaFortuneSSJ wrote:-About the the new ending-
Funniest thing about changing the ending is that the opening is what sucks.
The ending is awesome. The opening is bad and they will keep it until the end. They will probably just change some clips like they did with Kai.

Oh did he? I guess I missed that interview. I just assumed it was going to happen soon because of Champa appearing in the manga already, and Toriyama usually doesn't do much foreshadowing.Captain Space wrote:That he did.garfield15 wrote:Didn't Toriyama say that U6 arc came after BoG and RoF arcsUpFromTheSkies wrote: To me it feels like they are setting it up now, and it could take place between BoG and RoF.

Yeah, it's kind of weird how early Toyotaro is foreshadowing Champa and girl-Whis given how unlikely it is that they're gonna appear in the anime version for a good while.UpFromTheSkies wrote: Oh did he?

Re: Official Announcement Thread & Discussion
It's a way to keep fans interested and expectant of the new material. In the anime trailer they showed Champa and she who won't be named; yet they haven't appeared so far.Captain Space wrote:Yeah, it's kind of weird how early Toyotaro is foreshadowing Champa and girl-Whis given how unlikely it is that they're gonna appear in the anime version for a good while.UpFromTheSkies wrote: Oh did he?

I've had a theory about this and its going to sound weird for us but would make sense maybe for Japan.Captain Space wrote:Yeah, it's kind of weird how early Toyotaro is foreshadowing Champa and girl-Whis given how unlikely it is that they're gonna appear in the anime version for a good while.UpFromTheSkies wrote: Oh did he?

What if the stuff in the manga with Champa and FemWhis is supposed to be happening at the same time as the anime? Like this stuff with them is happening in the other medium and Japanese kids will have read it already so that when BoG arc ends and we first see Champa on animation, the audience will be familiar with him and they don't have to spend much time introducing him "again"
This sounds needlessly complicated, and it is, but think about how Jaco was just in a short manga that happened to be a DB prequel and then ended up in RoF, talking about things that only happened in that manga, it would be something like that again

I guess its more like Toyotaro playing the cards right to make it interesting. Super is a monthly manga with a weekly chapter size.garfield15 wrote:

The pacing has to be good and show new content to keep fans interesting. Let the anime flesh out things better.
Casual fans don't read manga.
People that are reading the manga already watched BOG, so they gave free pass to Toyotaro do his own thing. And he's doing the right thing to use Champa/Whis Waifu already.
Manga/Anime are not happening at the "same time". Important things that are revealed in the manga will be revelead in the anime too, just later.
You don't have to watch both to understand what's happening.

Re: Official Announcement Thread & Discussion
This series is a filler anyway, as it is created by Toei, while being based on BoG and RoF. It is kind of like what DB/Z is to Dragon Ball manga, only sliding in GT's route, considering there was no manga, written by Toriyama, as a base for either Super or BoG/RoF.Noah wrote:Well, If Toriyama ignores Bra existence as Super advances in timeline with Pan at age of 3 or something, than this series will be filler indeed
Or Pan is Bra.fadeddreams5 wrote:Maybe Bra is adopted and just happens to look like Bulma. =D

Vegeta could even train her and she could actually like to be in battles different of her GT counterpart.
GT's versions of teen Pan and Bra are the only ones we'll get, and they will always be the best, as neither Toei or Toriyama does give a single damn about them right now.fadeddreams5 wrote:Pan has more potential for being the daughter of Gohan and having the fighting spirit of Goku.

I maintain that Bra should be unassumingly strong, but not a fighter either. I'd be happy with her having a support role like Bulma, only a less sassy persona. Something like Winry from FMA. Goodness I despise her GT personality... so much.
They can. It is Toei. The first opening of Saint Seiya Omega was Pegasus Fantasy right again. And the opening of Saint Seiya: Soul of Gold is Soldier Dream.Chuquita wrote:
I actually really like the current ending song, but having a new one each arc is nice. I hope the imagery to go with it is something fresh. They can't nostalgia forever, especially since this is "new" material, unlike Kai.

Also this. Super so far is fully a project of Toei, much like Dragon Ball/Z anime was, only with having no Toriyama's manga as base, so inclining towards GT.Lord Beerus wrote:Well, the retelling of BOG and ROF are 100% Toei.

Perhaps this is said before, but is Gregory canon or not? He appears in the anime (super) not BOG or manga.
Re: Official Announcement Thread & Discussion
There is no "canon". He was designed by Toriyama himself and appears in the Z anime, Kai, the 2008 JSAT special (along with its manga counterpart) and Super. Take that as you will.Pannaliciour wrote:Perhaps this is said before, but is Gregory canon or not? He appears in the anime (super) not BOG or manga.
