I have a feeling this was from the new opening, which I really hope it's not, cause the animation looks so good!

It looks like we're getting the "Goku & Vegeta hold back" trope again in this tournament, they're only in their regular SS forms. Red flag #1!

If femBroly is SSB level, then Broly fans are just gonna get more ammo to continuously annoy everyone in the fanbase for the rest of existence.

Female Broly is such a bizarre idea and that wolf fighting Goku looks like Machgaogamon, wonder why there's an extra misterious guy in the clown's team

Don't worry, the games can just have Fem-Broly wreck Broly to set people straight.

It's also a long tournament so they have to conserve energy.

Why Dragon Ball Consistency in something such as power levels matter!

SSB has never been shown to consume much energy in the anime. They'd keep more power by 1-shotting everyone with SSB than fighting long and hard in SS. Granted, that wouldn't do either, it's just annoying.

That would be the best troll. I'm praying for it, and I'm not even religious.

I cannot believe that the mere concept of LSSJ migrated into Super. For what it's worth, one thing I can salvage from this disaster is that we have first ever female SSJ. That is landmark moment, no matter what way you slice it. It took us over twenty years to get there, but we got there. It's an almighty shame regarding the circumstances of that moment. I just can't help but think of Broly every time I see that form. And it instantly reminds me of how much I'm apathetic towards the character. I pray this will grow on me but I don't think it will.

Like I mentioned before, Xenoverse 2 already integrated movies into canon. I'm not going to judge it until Dragon Ball shows me what they can do with this.

The GoDs look for the most part awful as well. The elephant looks alright, and the fox doesn't look too bad, but a clown and a robot? Really?
I wasn't hoping much to begin with, but I was interested to watch it, now I'm just baffled.

She looks exacly like Broly when she transforms so there's nothing special about this first female saiyan, is like Toriyama looked for an excuse to please the fans with the whole female ssj and canon Broly thing and was too lazy to do it right.

The Broly influence is obvious. But lets not fly off the handle. We know nothing about this character other than she shares features with Broly when Transformed. We don't know if this form is LSSJ. I was enjoying the reactions but I really don't want a trunk load of salt for the next week over so little info. I say wait till we get details, THEN freak out.

I guarantee you that this is not Toriyama's doing. He doesn't expand on idea that he didn't create, Bardock literally being the only substantial exception. Also, he's on record as going out of his way to not please fans back in the day, I doubt he's pulled a 180 on that principle.

It's literally Broly with a little more chest. The name of the transformation is irrelevant.
