Ahh! Goku's reaction to Vegeta's hidden power and Vegeta dancing begrudgingly. I'm stuck away atm but I'll respond in more detail when home!

Considering this is being theatrically released... Not for a long time, if at all.
Wait, do you mean just iTunes or any release in general? Because I have to think that a release of some sort somewhere down the line is practically inevitable.

Does he mean he was going to do it soon enough? Or that he suprised they were able too?

Ok, that strip was HILARIOUS with Vegeta getting angry and then Goku going "Go, Vegeta!" while he gets pummeled :lol:

Was it hinted or stated anywhere that Freeza was Birusu's evil agent?

Welp, for anyone looking for an update, I went ahead and registered an account (very easy and straightforward), but the site doesn't seem to accept credit cards issued outside Japan. And none of the other payment methods seem to be an option for anyone outside Japan.

Which, to be honest, is exactly what I expected. But hey, it never hurts to try.

I didn't try the other retailer that the official site mentioned, but I would imagine I'd get the same result.

People, for crying out loud, stop quoting these big-ass images.

There's nothing explicit, just Beers asking Whis if Planet Vegeta was destroyed by Feeeza while he was asleep. This might mean Beers had charged Freeza with the task of destroying Planet Vegeta, but maybe not. Beers doesn't like Freeza (who he considers both evil and haughty) and was going to destroy him before learning Goku had already done the job, so if Freeza was Beers' agent then they probably didn't have the best working relationship.

He even talks more professional. When he fights Goku on King Kai's globe, he says something like "Shall we begin?" instead of his usual more casual way of speaking.

Oh, so it's confirmed that Beers was going to destroy Freeza?

I never theorized that Freeza was Beer's agent or anything.. my theory was that Beers just decided to take a break because he knew with Freeza around, plenty enough worlds would get destroyed to meet his quota without him lifting a finger.

Maybe it's just a "inside baseball" thing. Birusu just wanted to know what was going on in the destroying industry.

Wow.. Birusu tapping Goku on the neck with that chop shows how strong he really is. I can understand Akira making the statement how he is the strongest character in all of Z now. He would probably outclass Super Vegetto. :crazy:

There's also the statement by Toriyama saying that when Beers finds it bothersome, he lets "someone else act as an agent of destruction":

I finally got the clip to load for me.

The SS3 Goku fight not having background music was an AWESOME decision. I'm not even kidding. Complete silence aside from the sound effects, and it was so perfect.

But that doesn't mean he explicitely appoints them as such. He could just see somebody else destroying and think, "Oh, somebody's doing it for me, nap time."

Yes, that's why I said "also" in response to "There's nothing explicit".
