Super Animation Catalogue 2.0

[Dbzfan94]

Tomioka Atsuhiro can write scripts for both Sun and Moon and Super. He is extremely fast. A Tomioka-Asada-Iwane combo episode is bound to happen in Sun and Moon sometime. I'll be disappointed if it doesn't happen. These 3 single-handedly turned Pokemon from a terrible anime to an outstanding anime.

On a side note, Sun and Moon looks fucking fantastic, I can't wait to watch it.

I saw the raw on Youtube. I loved it. The animation was spectacular. But I'm in the minority that actually really liked the Kanto anime. (Not sure when those three came in, but I'm gonna gues DP when the huge jump in quality came)

They're fun and expressive and by far the best the franchise has ever had.

Anyway, as much as I'd love to write reams about how fantastic Sun & Moon is, this is a Dragon Ball forum.

Let's stay on-topic. Thanks, all!

I could agree with that if was a new main character, they made Ash look younger than ever, didn't like it at all.

But okay, let's stay on topic:

Does anyone knows who drawn these shots of Goku?

[spoiler]
[/spoiler]


I think it's one of the best shots of him in the series

[ArchedThunder]

It's totally on model though, that's for sure. Looks like they're summoning Shenron.

EDIT: Not entirely animation related, but probably relevant. Tomioka Atsuhiro is NOT in charge of the Pokemon Sun and Moon anime's composition. This further lends credence to the idea that he is the series composer for Super now. Still have my fingers crossed that for the purpose of improving things he and King Ryu will be swapping on and off each arc, so Tomioka would spend much of the next 4 or so months planing out (and hopefully writing) the arc after the upcoming arc.

The decision for Tomioka Atsuhiro to not be the series composer for Sun & Moon would have been made nearly a year ago, likely before he joined Dragon Ball Super. This is to say nothing of the fact that Tomioka can hold the series composition role for two or three series at a time.

Toei's outline for the Future Trunks arc was finished in February, so if he was in charge of the composition the time that he started work on Super was probably around the time it was decided that he wouldn't be in charge of Sun and Moon.

All 3 of them were there from the start but it's Diamond and Pearl where they started doing wonders when Tomioka became series composer. A Tomioka written, Asada directed and storyboarded and Iwane solo KA episode was phenomenal almost every time.

Anyways back on-topic, AniCorner credits Toriyama as series composer of Super. Isn't that an error?

[Sodhi]

Yea I think its an error. From what we know so far, Toriyama does not assign writers for each episode. He does write general outline for a story though.

After his little Trunks illustration, Otsuka just went ahead and posted actual genga from the episode:

[spoiler][/spoiler]

For comparison:



I believe he also says he'll be on Super again next year.

[ArchedThunder]

I love seeing genga!
Also really nice to know that he'll be on Super next year as well. I hope he is a little more regular than he has been on the show up to this point. Him poping up every 2-4 months would be nice.

[Ajay]

I'll leave the story details until a better translator can get to them, but here's the line-up for the upcoming Super episodes:

[spoiler][/spoiler]

We've got a few weeks of filler before the new arc (apparently involving Hit) begins on December 18th.

I wonder what the staff list is going to look like for that first episode.

[ArchedThunder]

Yes, Hit!!!
Hopefully the beginning of the arc is slow so they can still space the supervisors out after having most of them work on this last episode.
What happened to the arc being announced on the 17th or 18th, lol. Are they going to be quiet about the arc now and officially announce it the day before it starts?
Really interested in what those episode titles are, I see a VS on December 4th, which might be Manabe's episode.

[Psykomatik]

November 27: Come here Shenron!! Whose dream will come true?
December 4: Goku vs Arale! The earth comes to an end due to their battle?
December 11: Challenge from Champa Let’s fight in baseball!
December 18: Goku dies! Assassination order that must be performed.

According to YounkouProductions

If tomorrow is Kitano and Ono, then I guess the Shenlong episode may be Kinoshita and Itai? That would leave Nashizawa and Manabe for the baseball episode, or maybe there'll be someone new, and they'll be doing the first episode of the new arc?

If they've got a couple new supervisors it will make spreading the existing ones back out a bit easier, so maybe. Goku VS Arale sounds like dumb fun.

At the very least, it'd be nice to have episodes where supervisors aren't doubled up, even if they are less animated than normal.

As much as I'd love a cool baseball game, I hope it's more in line with the rubbish half-movement we got in #64 than anything substantial.

A baseball episode would be the perfect time to sacrifice an episode, lol. I bet the baseball episode will be Yashima.

That Hit is a new drawing right? Or is that reused aswell?

Reused as well, just heavily edited. It's the same image from the original U6 poster.

[ArchedThunder]

Looking back at that list I wrote up for a good way to spread the supervisors back out I think it would still work really well with this arc or what ever it is that's coming up.
Wanpak does the Shenron episode, Manabe and Nashizawa do the Goku VS Arale episode, Yashima does the baseball episode, someone new does the first Hit episode and then the supervisors can spread out solo supervising episodes from that point in a natural way, Ishikawa, Shimanuki, Karasawa, Kitano, Tate, and then Nashizawa or Manabe with the other coming after. Throw in another Yashima episode and a Wanpak episode somewhere in that list and we're golden. It could still work just fine if there are no new supervisors and everyone is shifted back an episode, this way would be slightly less ideal, but would still work out fine I think, though Ishikawa and Shimanuki might need a support supervisor on their episodes.

Reused, they just added a glow effect to his eye

[Saikyo no Senshi]

Tate better stay out of this. Let Wanpack and Yashima handle most of it. But, I know I'll most likely be wrong.

[ArchedThunder]

If this Hit stuff is like 10 or more episodes then Tate will have to show up.
With Toyotaro saying he's going to be ahead of the anime and they'll be able to take from the manga, the V-Jump page saying nothing about Toriyama and Toriyama's next arc being announced at about the same time that Hit episode airs I think we're getting a somewhat beefy filler arc.
