"Dragon Ball Super" Series Official Announcement & Discussion Thread

[JulieYBM]

We might get news within the week. Newtype magazine will be releasing early around then. Newtype typically has episode titles and staff listings for the next month of airings. With any luck the first week of July will be covered, too, so we should learn the first episode director and the episode's writer, episode director, storyboard artist, animation supervisor and art director (backgrounds).

[Chuquita]

I didn't even think about NewType covering this. Thank you for the info.

[JulieYBM]

I just checked the May schedule for Naruto Shippuuden. It included the episode title and staff for Episode #415 (04 June 2015), so there is definitely a chance for the first week of July to be covered in this issue.

I have been a bit slow with Super news but it is nice to have it confirmed to be after BoG and "F" and that Norihito Sumitomo is returning!

[soulnova]

I have all my fingers crossed for the next issue of NewType.

You know, at this point I would even settle for background teasers of the first episode. xD

[Doctor.]

I'm gonna have exams this month. The amount of precious study time I'll lose every time something new is announced will be huge, I can tell. But damn it, I'm excited!

Sumitomo returning is the best news so far!. Come on, Toriyama Sensei, have the Super story take place shortly after "F", and I'll be even more excited.
If it is after Uub, then that's how it is, I'd prefer the former, but I'm happy either way.

Tomorrow is the best day, Tuesday. I don't expect anything major untill middle June though.

While surfing the web, I came across this:



I know this is not legit, but hypothetically speaking, if that was the logo for the show, how would you feel?

That logo has been leaked since day one. Don't know if its legit.

[Cetra]

Why would something called Dragon Ball Zetto be real? Super is technically during Z, yes, But until now I have never officially heard of it as Z Super.

[Chuquita]

I also don't expect anything tomorrow, but I would be more than happy to be wrong about that.
Even the logo would be nice.

[DBZ_Lee]

I don't think we had anything this past Tuesday. It seems as though "Newtype" is our best chance before V-Jump.

[TheDevilsCorpse]

Saikyo Jump releases on the 4th I think. The site mentions something about information on Super, but it could just be recycled info about it existing. So there is a chance for something new, but don't set yourself up for disappointment thinking that there WILL be something new.

Actually Super is after Z. But yeah this logo is fake and was made by someone who can't read the Japanese characters that are on it.

Super is not after Z when it is before vol. 42 ends. Z ends with vol. 42.

Please give us your source which states that Super is before vol. 42. Thanks

Guys, we don't know when it's set yet, it's all speculation based on ambiguous phrasing at this point.

[TheDevilsCorpse]

Likewise, can you providing one that says it's after?

Pretty much every hint thus far has been "after Buu" or mentions of Buu, Beerus and Freeza. None of which means "after Uub". Can it take place after the 28th Budokai? Sure, but nothing has said that thus far. Which, in short, means we don't have anything beyond speculation for the time being.

[Basaku]

Plot-twist - it's actually taking place after reconfirmed-for-canon GT

[DBZ_Lee]

Seriously, I really hope that Toei/Shueisha come out and just confirm when the Series will take place. This is dominating the discussions, and everyone needs to be able to talk about other, more exciting things

[Chuquita]

While I don't care about canon, I'm still curious as to if Super will quietly replace GT by taking place during the same time period, and at the same time, making it obvious that they couldn't coexist.
