Re: Official Announcement Thread & Discussion
My theory:
In episode 47, Trunks says " that bastard CAN SENSE MY KI NOW ", and in the flashback, we got to see him with his old, purple hair, so... what if he managed to attain god ki ( ssjblue) and he's training some new stadium, trying to control it even in a semi - normal state, similarly to post - ROSAT Goku and Gohan ? Remember, only Gods can sense god / blue ki, and that Kaio in the opening could mean something related to this
OR
Somehow, and for some reason, he got God Ki permanently
This could explain lots of plot holes ( by far ):
he doesn't trasform cause he knows he's weaker than Goku Black, who is SSJ Blue Goku / Vegeta tier ( we know he'll crush those two from synopsis, and this could explain how ) plus, the animators didn't want to spoil us yet
Yup, there's still a plothole : why Trunks stay trasformed even when knocked out in the NEP preview?
So I get back to my SSJ Blue / God permanent ki
So...
IMHO, that Kaioshin got divided by someone / something, giving Black to life, like the Kid Buu - Fat Buu / evil - good split
Later, Black manages to reunite with that Kaio, becoming an even more powerful enemy ( Goku Black SSJ White? Like the one in the fanart posted before )
I also think Mai is alive, cause we get to see, in ep. 48's preview, kid Trunks staring at someone with long, black hair, strongly resembling Future Mai

Those aren't plotholes, though.
One summary mentioned Super Saiyajin power didn't beat Black so that's probably what Trunks still has. He just didn't transform because he didn't transform.

Interesting that Beerus comes back with them. Wonder why he does. Thanks for the translation!

Actually, Pilaf is teaching Trunks to study. Probably a ploy to get the dragonballs.sailorspazz wrote:Trunks was helping Pilaf study (huh? is he a tutor now or something?)
Re: Official Announcement Thread & Discussion
Are these actual scenes from episode 48? I see Goku and Vegeta using their RoF gi and battle armor, respectively. It seems like they can't decide what to wear.Sodhi wrote:Its out nowChuquita wrote:Anyone know if the Weekly Jump episode mini-summary/teaser for ep 48 is out yet?.

Re: Official Announcement Thread & Discussion

Re: Official Announcement Thread & Discussion
These episode previews always use stock footage from old episodes, so we shouldn't rely on them. You can even see Bulma has her old haircut from BoG.Konig wrote:Are these actual scenes from episode 48? I see Goku and Vegeta using their RoF gi and battle armor, respectively.

I wish they'd change into their F arc outfits. ( T u T )

Re: Official Announcement Thread & Discussion
Oh, you're right. Only now I noticed Bulma's hair. Thanks for pointing that out. It's a shame, though, as I think their RoF outfits look way better than their BoG ones when they turn into SSB.LuckyCat wrote:These episode previews always use stock footage from old episodes, so we shouldn't rely on them.

Where were Beerus & Whis when the Pan was with the Pilaf Gang a few episodes ago? Non-canon episode!Xeztin wrote:I think the EoZ is kind of already out the window, I just can't see a tourney without Whis and Beerus being in the food stands.fadeddreams5 wrote:If Future Trunks' hair goes unexplained, I'm guessing they do have plans to go to EoZ, and want the other Trunks to appear different.
With that being said, literally all they needed to do to distinguish them without being inconsistent was use Future Trunks' post-RoSAT design...which is how he should look like in the first place.

But the crucial difference between them lies not only in how they view the world, but in how the world views them.
Superman is, and always has been, a symbol for truth, justice, and upstanding moral fortitude–a role model and leader as much as a fighter. The more down-to-earth Goku has no illusions about being responsible for maintaining social order, or for setting some kind of moral example for the entire world. Goku is simply a martial artist who’s devoted his life toward perfecting his fighting skills and other abilities. Though never shy about risking his life to save either one person or the entire world, he just doesn’t believe that the balance of the world rests in any way on his shoulders, and he has no need to shape any part of it in his image. Goku is an idealist, and believes that there is some good in everyone, but he is unconcerned with the big picture of the world…unless it has to do with some kind of fight. Politics, society, law and order don’t have much bearing on his life, but he’s a man who knows right from wrong.
Re: Official Announcement Thread & Discussion
Considering that Black is also voiced by Nozawa and we had previews of the next episode narrated by Goku, Gohan and Goten before, we could have one with Black, why not? 
"Hey, It's Black... So it looks like that pitiful Saiyan has escaped, whatever, I have more business to do, I'll deal with this later. If you don't want to die, then don't miss next episode of Dragon Ball Super"
Amusing.

So, are their old outfits considered to be their causal wear and their RoF outfits their combat wear?

They don't have their FnF outfits in the opening anymore, so it's most likely that they've been abandoned.ryou766 wrote:So, are their old outfits considered to be their causal wear and their RoF outfits their combat wear?

I was basing this off the scan.

Re: Official Announcement Thread & Discussion
I wish they would just switch to their EoZ outfits, those look great.
By the way I prefer thier FnF outfits to the old ones, they look a lot better when they turn Super Saiyan Blue.

I think Goku's outfit during EoZ was only worn specifically for the 28th Tenkaichi Budokaiemperior wrote:I wish they would just switch to their EoZ outfits, those look great.

The main antagonist of this arc won't be Black, since he'll be trapped in Trunks' timeline. The main antagonist will be the Galactic Patrol! They'll all launch an attack on Earth to arrest Trunks and Bulma.

I'm hoping they train before Blacks arrival and switch back to their ROF outfits.
