Don't remember who was "worried" about this but, apparently, Beers uses "boku" in the chapter.

Yikes! What the hell happened to Goten's face? It's really awkwardly drawn. Also, Vegeta looks really chubby, and Gohan has Future Trunks' hair (at least, as this artist draws it: way too short), but with a really overly curled bang.

Goku looks pretty decent though, but the shading on his hair is a little messed up in terms of adhering to a light source. The way the first two spikes in the front are shaded makes it look almost like they were mirrored.

This is the artist who draws all the recent video game stuff, right? Seems like the same style, at least, I've never been a fan.

Uh...how does golf mean no precure? Would be weird if it aired on the same timeslot...

Golf means no precure this week because it's using precure's timeslot and I think the slots of the two shows that air before it.

Do you think we will get another trailer tonight with Kai? I'm crossing my finger for extra information.

We haven't had anything really new from the twitter account either... Most of the new info was from the V Jump.

I suspect another 15 second trailer or the same one replayed.
"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

It's just a guess, unfortunately. I'm only theorizing. I wish I wasn't and actually knew, but I don't.
If I do learn something, will definitely link and source.

Conversely, there was a Crystal episode today, so it could go either way.

That drawing of Gohan ain't the best I've seen...

I want to get excited for this but i really can't.

It's taking place before EoZ, RoF AND BoG, i don't see the point in that to be honest. I also don't see the point in it being called Dragon Ball Super when it takes place in the Z timeline.

What we are basically getting is an extra 100 episodes ( or around 100 episodes ) of Dragon Ball Z. The only difference is that we know how this will end unless Toriyama completely removes the ending of Z. Something i don't think he will do and something i hope he doesn't do.

I can't see it going beyond the end of Z either, this show is all going to take place in the gap between Kid Buu's death and the EoZ.

It's a big disappointment but i'm sure it will still be an enjoyable show, it is still Dragon Ball.

About Goten's face...I think it's because they tried to make him look serious and cute at the same time. It happened a few times in the manga. Look at Trunks' face here...

It looks like Goku will be using Ssj3.

How did you come to that conclusion?

From the pictures alone, it doesn't say much besides almost confirming lady Whis is, in fact, a lady. Hopefully the text has something new?

I don't think so. You can see the halo over his head. That's from the Buu saga.

He's probably referring to the artwork seen in the background of this image:
All of which are old; either from Z or the 2008 special. It doesn't really tell us anything. They've been floating around the internet for years.

I'm really curious of what the pictures say.
