The 1st is airing on July 1st so is this going to be a twice a month episode show ?
July 9th 2018 will be remembered as the day Broly became canon.

I don't know, maybe they will make that gap between the first two episodes and then make it shorter? Who knows.

It seems the commercial/trailer is due to be released on June 21st.

That's when V-Jump releases so we'll probably get everything there (and hopefully actual news for the movie).

No, its being aired on a screen at a place on July 1st
I called it that Gogeta, Bardock, and something Broly related would be in the movie before it was even announced that it was a Broly movie. 8)

The special screening said they'll add more episodes so these look to be done? I'm guessing it'll be 4 episodes released every 2 weeks to the public.

What do you mean? The entire premise is that the Prison PLanet is full of fighters from alternate timelines
Precisely my point.

Will this be addressed, or just accepted and move along? You gotta remember that the general audience doesn't know this information, or anything about how Heroes works

Furthermore, I wonder if this will be on CrunchyRoll / AnimeLab / etc., or if we'll be subjected to fansubs

If each episode covers one Universe mission, that means that e

Episode 1 plot points are:

1. Trunks visits present to train on Beerus’s planet
2. Mai making food
3. Trunks vanishes
4. Fuu comes and explains where Trunks is
5. Goku, Vegeta, and Mai go to Prison Planet
6. Meet up with Xeno Goku
7. Blueku vs Xeno 4ku
8. Xeno Goku explains whats going on
9. Cooler and Trunks meet (cliffhanger)

Episode 2 plot points are:

1. Cooler and Trunks meet
2. Cooler and Trunks briefly spar and then break out of prison as a team
3. Goku, Vegeta, and Mai meet up with Bojack’s gang
4. Goku, Vegeta, and Mai fight the gang and then kick Full Power Bojack’s ass as Fu watches
5. Evil saiyan incoming
6. Goku gets turned into Evil Berserk Goku
7. Trunks and Cooler arrive
8. Vegeta Blue, Mai, Golden Cooler, and Trunks vs Evil saiyan and Evil Berserk Goku
9. Goku snaps out of it and the Evil saiyan retreats

This is if the anime goes after the game. And with this much stuff in just one episode, each episode would have to be about 24 minutes. Of course, they could go the route of the manga where the key story points stay the same but some stuff is different or is cut out to save for time or something.

But we do know that episode one starts with Trunks visiting the present and ends with Xeno Goku explaining whats going on to the present Goku, Vegeta, and Mai.

While each Universe Mission comes out Bi-monthly (i think) that would mean that after episode 2, we would get an episode every other month.

This is only if each episode covers only one Universe Mission.

A reminder, Toriyama's most harshest editor loved Resurrection 'F'. So again, this idea that some mystical editor will fixed any flaws you see within Dragon Ball is extremely naive. And it's funny that people keep bringing up Minus which was just a bonus chapter and not even a full-fledge story.

Goku barely took a backseat in the Buu saga, at best he took a leisurely stroll round back while everyone else cried for him to come back.

When you say aired it is for something on air - on tv.

Wait...what? They actually pulled the trigger on legit evil Goku? They wouldn't even allow it in Xenoverse, but they finally allowed this to happen?

I wouldn't really count this as an evil Goku, otherwise we already had that back in Dragon Ball when he turns Great Ape

Maybe in a flashback or opening to explain the Time Patrol, but in this arc she's trapped elsewhere and not involved.

That'd be like not counting the Demigra mind control stuff, which effected everyone but Goku. There was a reason but even still. This is a legit Goku, corrupted to be evil. I wouldn't count the Great Ape as it's more primal than that. But I guess this may be the same. Gonna have to see how it plays out I guess.

Why? You can know what's going on beforehand, just go to Heroes thread. Unlike Oozaru form, Goku remains with the ability to talk normally, so he is still pretty much aware even while he keeps himself close to Evil Saiyan's Ki.

I don't know how much thread diving I'd have to do to see it all. But if he talks normally then yeah sounds like this counts as legit evil Goku, which was hearsay in Xenoverse.

I wonder what feels more closer to AF, Heroes or Super? The old fan fic ideas end up becoming a real thing in both of them to be honest.

Definitely Heroes. Random stuff comes out from nowhere and seems so much like AF.
