The article also reveals that the story’s main plot was developed in the autumn of 2015, with a final screenplay completed in February 2016, indicating that production has been ongoing for the past four months.

This makes me really happy. It's always good to hear that things had been planned for some time now.

This is implying that the Future Trunks arc has been planned since 2015? So it seems that they really used the Retellings to buy some time.

Can't believe the summaries aren't out yet. Was really expecting it to be today. Oh, well.

Maybe they aren't published this time to avoid spoilers?

I dont think so, Japan doesn't really care about that as much as we do.

[Sodhi]

The newtype magazine contains titles, summaries and episode staff. No one is leaking it for some reason(Dragon ball).

[Chuquita]

I think it's just that none of the fans have gotten a hold of a copy. Honestly I'm floored that even Sailor Moon Crystal had its leak happen already.

There has to be a reason why but surely they have to be put tomorrow.

That can't be possible there must be crossover fans that like more than one show.

Only dragon ball is left. Leaks for precure, one piece and sailor moon's already came out yesterday.

I'm one of those crossover fans. I follow all four. (Though to be fair I follow One Piece's manga a lot more than I do its anime; and I haven't been paying as close attention to Precure this year because it's just not as interesting as last year's Precure series imo. Crystal I'm partly watching because that's where they sent some of their better Precure staff members and partly watching because it's Sailor Moon.) They definitely exist.

It's more how many people follow multiple series and track down copies of NewType in advance (or live in areas where they can do that).

It's getting close to 7am in Japan...I wonder if NewType sells at convenience stores (in which case it could theoretically be put on shelves and sold very early in the morning), or if it's only in bookstores (in which case it might not be available until 9 or 10.) This wait feels so intense since we've been expecting leaks "any time now" for the last 3 days! The other leaks have spoiled us to the point where waiting for the actual release date seems unbearable

Didn't they come out like may 2nd last month? The wait this time has been much longer, especially considering how exciting this arc is.

Maybe Black Goku's doing all these because he's pissed about loosing his earing.

I was wondering something... Don't you guys think that 'cute girl' Mai is out of character? I mean, young Mai in early DB was introduced as a mysterious looking woman with cunning tactics. She being portrayed as a cute girl doesn't suit well for me.

For a third of an episode, then she's what you'd expect from Pilaf's minion.

[Chuquita]

I can't fully fault them for changing her eye-color, since Toriyama inks it in fully black in the manga (or at least he did on the chapter title I saw on the main Kanzenshuu site). I presume adult Future Mai has no makeup because who's thinking about makeup in a post-apocalyptic world? Even if it's something you like to use, you're focusing more on survival.

[TheDevilsCorpse]

For starters, we've seen her in what? Basically three scenes? That's not really enough to tell what she's like at all times. Even if she does act like a cute girl around other people besides Trunks, there's nothing wrong with her reevaluating her life. She's not that character we knew from the main timeline anymore, and I don't really know why you'd want her to be exactly like her previous self either. She's lived through hell on Earth twice now, and that should have a dramatic effect.

Cardboard is more interesting than she is now.
