We keep getting shown new characters but they need to tell us the format so then we can have an idea of what to expect from team Universe 7.

I wonder if she's just there to give 18 her designated female fight.
I'm fully expecting Toei to make Broly canon the same way they made Tarble, through casual mention.

Upon seeing her transform into the LSSJ Goku remarks that he's unimpressed as he fought and defeated the LSSJ of his own universe (queue movie 8 clips). BOOM Broly is officially canon. Hahahahaha

Those two have the biggest fanbase, they wanted to generate hype and broly already did that alone.. no use showing others fight

Tarble was mentionned in the movie, not in the anime or the mangas of Super.

But they did it need to show them, even with krillin we did not see who is was fighting. I just hope they did not show other member of team Universe 7 to keep it a surprise.

Them scenes could be from the new opening. The new opening will should us a lot about this arc so it needs to hurry up.

Though I'm not sure that's even possible since people try to delude themselves into believing that Broly is weaker than a Cell jr and that he fought weaker Z-fighters than their timeline placement would suggest.
Even LegendarySSj7 thought that way, and he was anything but stupid. It's possible to go both ways on this, really. There isn't enough evidence this isn't the case.

2017/01/22 - the day Super did something that not even Heroes did - giving LSSJ to someone else.
Never forget.

Remember, it's a double-edged sword. They could react as if she's something completely new, ergo, Movie 8 never happened.

You have Super Saiyan 4 already even if it is not in Super.

Super Saiyan White would just be another colour so what is so special about that.

Half the battle has already been won just by making LSSJ canon. Movie 8 being canon would just be the sweet salty icing on the cake.

We already know the members of u7 team. So little point in showing all of them. Plus they had to keep the trailer short.

Tho on top of that, there is a human female GoD. The one that looks like Cleopatra and the Legolas lookalike Angel.

Now imagine all those fighters. 100+ new characters. And ye fem broly, i just want to see the reaction of her opponent/s when she transforms.

Oh speaking of canon, if they make Movie 8 canon, that means that galaxy busting feat is also canon hehe. Buu saga characters get some upgrades.

Theres nothing wrong with wanting to see the form again, its been years.

"could" we dont know if it will be a simple recolor again or something that changes his appearance like how SSJG did with his body getting slimmer and tan with the pupils in the eyes and new aura, all I know is Toriyama planned to use it so I want to see it, simple recolor or not. Besides, white is a lot better than blue.

Nah. It's gotta be Mark Hamill. Pull all kinds of strings to make that happen FUNimation. And while you're at it, get Arleen Sorkin to voice his Angel. :P
