Almost definitely. You can't help having high standards though but I've thoroughly enjoyed most of the filler to date.

I'm sure I'll find SOMETHING to get out of this episode if only Krillin fan service.

Seems like Krillin won't be powering up here, it's all about scared Krillin to not scared Krillin..

I definitely want ANIMAL Gods! This new GoD's design is boring, uncool, and creepy in a bad way. Lol
What i want to see is a Snake, a Crocodile, a Panther, a Dinosaur, a Dragon, an egyptian jackalhead, you name it. Not some weird Norse fat, small old man with a beard. Oh and why didn't anyone complain about that new Angels design? It's even worse than this GoD. And it's basically a Vados rip, but then with a different hairstyle.

It's a Whis rip, and since they revealed Whis and Vados to be Angels I didn't expect the other Angels to be drastically different than them.

There are still 9 Hakaishins and Angels to be revealed so maybe some of those will be more of your liking.

Calm down...You will forget about the design if you see them in the Anime just like Champa,Zeno etc no one is complaining about them anymore..
There is a possiblity that we will see some gods like a Snake,Crocodile etc let's just wait and see

No it's not a Whis rip. It's a Vados rip. (Same clothes, same color) and that face and hairstyle looked goddamn awful.

But i too, expected them all of them to be Angels. So i'm not surprised by that.

I'm guessing the illusions are just made by Kuririn from the ''paradise grass'', and once he'll overcome his fear, they'll disappear.

It's probably a headpiece similar to Horus. Just my guess though.

So is "paradise grass" basically Goku getting high on drugs? And that's why he sees illusions.

I made a bet with Alee9977 that Vegeta won't be beaten quickly by an opponent. If I lose, I switch my avatar to Vegeta getting beat by hit. If I win, he switches it to Vegeta holding Black by his hair. This will last a month.

I will hold out hope for Gokû Black because in fiction just as characters can be written out, there's always a way to write them back in too.

Toei could always do what they do with One Piece. TV Specials where they make a resumed remake of some arcs.
Right now it's not the best time, because there's no point for Super production to suffer because of his but later, yeah sure.

They could even use Toyotaro's manga as reference to make them more different from the anime version. Just like they were 100% faithful to the manga with ROF Special.

Unlike GT arcs, Super arcs are outlined by Toriyama himself and they won't go anywhere.

A world without Dragon Ball is just boring.

Toyo's manga would make a fantastic storyboard for a movie. I'm going to hold out hope for that. That reminds me, Ajay mentioned making a Super Cut of the FT arc a while back, not sure what the status of that is.

They're not as scared to tie in filler to the main story with super so you never know.

Super's barely had an filler episodes, and certainly not of the volume we're getting right now.
Also these next two episodes as well as the first episode of the next arc are written by the guy who wrote most of the Future Trunks arc and he hasn't written any filler previously, so maybe they're treated differently.
