Re: A new TV Special!?

Post by emperior » Wed Jul 20, 2016 7:28 am

As much as I would like to see a new TV Special about Future Trunks, I think it's still too early for it. They should wait until the arc is over and then expand the story of both Zamasu and Trunks basing on the few flashbacks we have seen. We still have to see Trunks' full battle against Dabura and Babidi, how he achieved SSJ2, a more complete version of his first fights against Black. Also we probably won't get a detailed flashback of how Zamasu got Goku's body and his backstory so they will probably show it in a TV Special.
We will see though. Maybe by August 27th they will have already shown Black's backstory in Super so they can expand with the tv special.
I really, really hope they don't mess up an eventual new TV Special. I absolutely love Bardock's TV Special and Trunks' one. They are incredibly good and I rewatch them every year. So I expect to see the dark tones and the level of quality of the first two specials.

They really wanna push Future Trunks out there, don't they? I don't mind, I like Future Trunks.

As someone already mentioned, it would be awesome to see what Trunks was up to in his time-line after he beat Cell and the Androids. Maybe there will be another villain before Babidi showed up.

I'm still impressed on how he took out Dabura.

If the Trunks special is new, with all the production problems can they really afford to be animating a new special? especially with Super to air hours later, I reckon it will just be the old one.

I would not be surprised if it is replacing purple-haired Trunks with blue-haired Trunks.

Thanks to herms and official db super account.
"Resurrection "F" airs on Fuji TV August 27th with new retelling of Future Trunks and Freeza's battle, from Trunks' perspective."
Also, it looks like it isn't a full blown special just a addition to ROF the movie

Yeah, it seems like it's going to be more akin to Resurrection "F": "Future" Trunks Special (edition). Which means I may have to buy the movie again, for the third time now.

I wonder if this relates to the Pilaf Gang and their wishes. We can assume Mai and them wished during DBZ for youth. What if Frieza visited but he wasn't golden?

So they got a 2h10m time slot according to the website? Maybe this is what Yamamuro has been busy with.

Yea it does say from 9pm to 11:10pm. So looks like new animation would be around 40 mins as the movie is about 90 minutes long.

So since it's airing on late night slot, do you think the special will shy away from Super's light hearted tone and be more dark and grittier ?

it will probably maintain the same level as the movie when it comes to gore. I cannot answer about how dark it is going to be atm, however from what they are telling us it does not seem to be a dark story.

Z's TV specials were close to its anime in both tone and quality so chances are a Super special will be close to its anime as well.

The 40 minutes will probably be spread across the whole movie instead of just being about Trunks' fight with Freeza so we might get extended training scenes and a longer ending.

I personally think that they will just air the old classic Trunks TV Special.
Why make new animation with their already so tight schedules, when they have 40 min long special about Trunks sitting in their archives.
Will they recolor Trunks' hair tough? That is the question.

Do you have any proof that this will be a brand new animation instead of a line in magazine, that a special will air?
I would expect some more hype in Japan if there was new animation coming out.

Herms said it's an extended cut of Resurrection F with new Trunks scenes.

So it really looks like we're getting a new TV Special? I'm fucking hyped! Also hoping that the fact it's getting shown late night in Japan will mean it will have more blood, gore and darker tones.

And it looks like it will tell Future Trunks' vs Freezer, but it's still called Resurrection F so it's probable Freezer got revived in Trunks' timeline too... ??

HECTOR4 just posted two articles put up an hour or so ago stating that we'd be getting new, never before seen animation Trunks' facing Freeza form his perspective.

I didn't watch it live or anything, but it seems One Piece Heart of Gold had a ~2 hour block and ended up being ~105 minutes according to the Crunchyroll version streamed. The new edition of Resurrection "F" also has a 2 hour and 10 minute block, and the original film was 93 minutes...could that mean we get a little over that with the new animation? I really don't want it to be a fairly short addition.

Nothing in the articles posted yet suggests that the additions will be spread throughout like Battle of Gods. It specifically notes the Trunks versus Freeza in what they posted.

OK, guys, thanks a lot. It's hard to keep on track on message boards that are quite alive and stumbling upon thread after few days :)
I am curious, I am betting on extended cut of Ressurection F with some commentary from Trunks added.
If it will be completely new, I will be happy! :D

It's not a new special and it's not Freeza being revived in his timeline, it's just an extended edition to the RF movie that shows a different view point of his fight with him when he went back in time.
