Luke Groundwalker wrote:Ok? So when does that suggest the footage we see takes place after Revival of F? It's completely possible the first episode or two to act as a recap to what's been going on between the movies and how it ties into Super. Which makes a lot of sense cause a lot of new eyes will be the product and renewed interest will create new fans as well.
Now that you've mentioned, it is possible all the footage shown belong to different periods.
We'll just have to wait and see, hard to predict much based on this.

Oof, I really don't like the sound of the theme song. X_x But, it looks a lot better than I expected!

Herms was right, the Internet did "implode" on seeing this trailer! Just not for the reasons he believed.

P.S. I like the theme.
I like what I heard for the theme of DBS, too.

I wouldn't rule out Toei doing that. They've done it in the past:

Well, Beerus and Whis are in Dragon Ball Super. So this show is already an automatic thumbs up, from me. :D

Or Vegeta didn't want the one they had to get the spotlight again so he takes care of things like he said he would at the end of BOG.

Was there any doubt they wouldn't be? xD
"Dragon Ball once became a thing of the past to me, but after that, I got angry about the live action movie, re-wrote an entire movie script, and now I'm complaining about the quality of the new TV anime. It seems Dragon Ball has grown on me so much that I can't leave it alone." - Akira Toriyama on Dragon Ball Super

If the first few episodes are recap-ish of 2008 special/BOG/ROF or just filling few gaps and then we move forward, would the key visual on Monday reflect that? As in the actual main designs for the series in the moment it's suppoused to get?

Does anyone have a feeling from the teaser that the first few episodes may have a slice of life/old school Dragon Ball-esque feel about them? I mean, Beerus, Whis, Goten, Trunks and Mr Satan all appeared, and they are all practically gag/comedy characters. On top of that, Gohan seem like he's going to be doing some scholaring and Goku is radish farming again.

If that preview was from the 1st episode then it looks like the pace is going to be very fast.

I am so excited! I am going out on a limb, and saying this takes place after "F". We saw Beerus awake. Which we know after BoG, he went straight back to sleep. Unless, it's a flashback of him appearing on King Kai's planet for that fateful videogame....

I don't know why I didn't notice it before, but at the very end of the teaser they show Krillin with his Buu saga hair, and Goten and Trunks in their Buu saga gi

If you mean the static image at the end, that's the closing eyecatch for the episode of Kai that aired.

I hope not. 2008 Special and BOG was enough of recycling, parties, memes getting animated and Dynasty Reunion for me. Let's move to some actual storytelling

I think that's the best idea they should. We never besides filler seen many daily activities of the characters. Would be a breath of fresh air.
