At least we'll have our splash image soon. I hope it's something good.

I haven't check what new stuff has L'Arc-en-Ciel done but I would like to hear something like this working for Super.. I feel like the chorus has energy and an "adventurous" feeling to it.

L'Arc-en-Ciel reminds me of Fullmetal Alchemist. Man, all of that show's openings were great. >.>

New update!
Parallel universe, maybe?!

Unless Beerus gets fat from all the Earth food, and Whis decides to finally get the sex change he always dreamed of.

Both plausible. xD

Hahaha, I knew them waaaay before FMA. I'm looking for other songs that could be used to fit the light-hearted vibe from DB Super. What about this one? :think: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ft4aW7bac8g

These might be counterparts for Beers and Whis. That or they have siblings.

Or wives.

translations...translations...please...!!

Seems like Dragon Ball just keeps expanding! From the orignal DB series where its just in Earth, to universe-scale in DBZ, now to multiverse (?!) in DBS!


Edit: Yep, Trunks and Goten are still in kid form.

The fat Beerus looks like all of Earth's food finally catching up to him, but the womanly Whis-like person is unexpected entirely. It seems awesome. Imagine, a woman more powerful than Beerus.
Also, the fat Beerus seems darker than Beerus and has a red necklace. I like the orange one more. The womanly Whis seems to keep his attire for the most part, aside from the green, colonial-type underdress and black skirt.
Speaking of such, does Whis wear a kilt? Or is it a robe?

Seems like we're getting some kind of parallel universe.

The Fat cat seems to be a different shade of purple, with different clothes. Girl Whis is also wearing different clothes

Oh man, I wonder what this all means! Female Whis and a chubby Beerus?! This should be interesting. Consider me 200x more excited.

I'm in a perpetual state of shock that this is actually a real thing. Years of false rumours and it's actually happening.

Hopefully we'll be exploring all the Hakaishin!

Not sure why people are talking parallel universes. Its was already said there are 12 "balls" and the fat Beerus and female Whis are probably just from Universe #3 or something.

Also, anyone still convinced this is post-ROF lol? Post-BOG & pre-ROF confirmed. My prediction is that 1st season will stay in this period and next one will cover post-ROF & pre-Movie #3. Movie #3 for 2017 ending the "Gods" story arc.

I admit, I will be disappointed if all the Gods of Destruction end up being parallel versions of Beerus. Each with their own Whis. :|

I'm just super confused at this point. All the designs are Battle of Gods era, so is it after BOG, and before F? But Beerus and Whis are apparently around, though we never met them prior to Battle of Gods and Beerus was asleep till F. Are we retelling all the films, or are the saying the hell with continuity again? :crazy:
