Ehhh, I don't think I'd like that, It's not really in line with Towa's personality and actions we see in DBO, which seem to remain intact for Xenoverse based on her small bio from the magazines. Granted, it could happen against her will or they could simply rewrite her to fit the story they want to tell in Xenoverse (which may not share some of the overall details as DBO).

The outfit is kinda similar to Towa, but it looks a but more masculine, at least in the vein of Whis. If it was Towa, I'd think she'd keep the heels. So I'm still fairly certain the silhouette character is someone entirely new though. Maybe a third party? Their boss? The grown up version of their son, Fum who is supposed to be very important in the future?

I wonder what next month's magazine will cover?

More on CAC, or is there even anything else left to cover on CAC?

Officially announcing Movie and/or GT characters?

The main villain?

Noticed that too.

Should be interesting to see how that character is used and how powerful he will be.

DB Xenoverse is not a DBZ simulator with fighting elements, it's a semi competent fighting/action game with DBZ simulation elements.

I'm not entirely sure this is the type of conversation that needs to be hidden behind spoiler tags... I'm all for avoiding massive story spoilers and such, but this is all still just rampant speculation based on information that has not really been independently verified by anyone.

Did all of the characters have the same background? If not, I bet that's the time god.

By the looks of it, it's Z, GT, Heroes-ish and Online so there's a lot of variety it's not just another bloody DB that has only Z characters.

Back to the Cell issue and possibly Freeza. I wanted to watch some Cell footage as player chara and noticed following in this video:
Japan Expo DBX: Cell vs Goku
If you look at the character potrait, it's showing Perfect Cell. Goku and Vegeta kept their base form potrait, even if they are transformed. Perfect Cell on the other hand is an already transformed chara and if we assume, that the chara potrait is actually showing your base form, this means that Cell's form are each different slots. Also the name on Cell is saying Cell (Kanzentai) (ok, I'm guessing the Kanzentai part). So I have pretty strong evidence, that Cell's form are splitted as seperate characters. Why bother to name Cell this way?

This worries me. Dimps was never one about separate characters being mere transformations. Maybe they'll pull a Budokai 2 and only have Perfect Cell?

Strangely enough, this time around I don't really mind not getting 2nd and 3rd form Frieza. Won't complain if they end up in the game, but I won't lose sleep over their absence either.

I'm sorry but who the hell is Demigra? Is it supposed to be that silhouetted person?

By the way were all these new characters like Tora, Mira and the Kai of Time designed by Toriyama?
