The "Society Survival arc" is a story that takes place when the country bumpkin Son Goku miraculously decides to find a job during a universal economic depression, said to happen once in every 100 years. The main visual has been released, in which Goku, Vegeeta and Kuririn appear as the new employees of the "DB Commercial Affairs".
Thank you very much XDDDD

I don't know how to properly call all these company ranks so there might be errors:

Goku, Vegeeta and Kuririn are the newcomers. Vegeeta is Goku's rival.
Gohan is the section chief, in charge of training the newcomers.
Piccolo is the head of the personnel department.
Kamesennin is the chief clerk.
Boo works in the PR department.
Tenshinhan works in the client liaison department.
The Grand Priest is the company president.
Zen'ou is the chairman.
#17 and #18 work for the Gero Corporation, the company that wants to/will take over DB Commercial Affairs.

Thought it was more like a company they have business relations with? (http://jisho.org/word/%E5%8F%96%E3%82%8 ... D%E5%85%88)

The other roles are the same as what I got, though.

Boo in public relations...that alone is a PR nightmare waiting to happen :lol: So many people would be turned into candy!

Society survival arc is like literally what we do everyday as members of society which makes it all the more funnier haha. Before Super ends I want a SoL arc like this happening!

This is the greatest concept for a story in all of history. This must be made into an mini-arc of Super. :clap:

And those fucking suits. :lol:

The 'Depression' part got me thinking about 'Of Mice an' Men', even though it's probably a reference to a completely different depression...

An economic depression refers a long-term state of recession in economic activity. Steinbeck's Of Mice and Men takes place during the Great (economic) Depression of the United States in the 30s following the market crash of 1929. It's the same kind of depression.

I just realised something, Super is pretty close to hitting that 100 episode milestone! If the arc is wrapped up by then I wonder if we will get a special episode of some sort.

I would like that very much. They could just make a double episode, replace One Piece for one week. The arc wouldn't really need to be done. Of course I fear any extra work could damage the quality of the main product.

It's about time we get some extra's. The show has more than one and half years and all we got was a bit of extra animation, in the FnF movie aired on TV.
