"Dragon Ball Super" Series Official Announcement & Discussion Thread

[RedHeat]

I think we can all prepare for episode 130 & 131 to possibly have the lowest ratings of any episode that ever came out of Super. People all over the internet are saying that they are not going to watch the finales anymore. Since they refuse to support Toei any longer after what they did to MUI Goku. And they have a point. I too, will no longer be legally supporting them. They don’t deserve mine either.

Just go to the comment section of Mastar Media’s two latest video releases and you’ll see what i mean. There’s over 5K comments of people who are absolutely freakin pissed at Toriyama for making Goku lose. And they keep coming, in his latest video, Mastar revealed that a lot of fans are totally OUTRAGED. So prepare for perhaps the worst ratings in history for the upcoming episodes.

YouTube comments don't correlate with the Japanese audience.

Nakamura: Even after the story is over, please keep watching to the end and don’t change the channel. There’ll be something special!

Any idea what this might be?

Probably a preview for the movie. We're supposed to be getting info about it around then anyways.

But, there is an argument that some of those badges were given by gym leaders that let Ash win because they like him.

It was already explained, but Satoshi have won his badges since Kantou through battles rather than being given them, to say nothing of continually reaching higher and higher in the regional Pokemon Leagues. Most recently he even made it to the final round and nearly won.

With Gokuu, though, we're still in the middle of whatever story Toriyama may or may not be mulling over. Gokuu losing--especially to someone not in one of the four strongest universes--makes sense. He just has to reach further.

Any idea what this might be?

All universes will be brought back (including the 6 Zeno erased a long time ago),
and/or Zalama will appear and do something
and/or Freeza will gain control of one of the Zeno, as they are slightly different from eachother, as shown throughout the tournament with them raising different hands,
or a preview for the next movie.
Who knows really, just gotta watch the episode.

[Nero<>Akira]

people will calm down with such blashpemy and will tune in this saturday like they always do. I'm excited and ecstatic to see what we get with these last two eps. Have a feeling they'll be outstanding.

Had not thought about that.

They are actually piracing the episodes instead of supporting it illegally.

Most likely, they were pirating even before they got the spoiler. So Toei is losing nothing.

YouTube comments don't correlate with the Japanese audience.

Best example, the one hour special. Crash the internet, had people talking about it all week, call some of the best episodes in the series, has the lowest rating in all of Super with only a 3.5.

Another favorite of mines is after the Future Trunks Saga people claimed that Super was 'ruined forever' and how upset they were about how the saga ended with several big Youtubers like Zeon giving up on Super. Come next episode, the ratings didn't go down and remained steady for months.

And another for the road, the retellings. Youtubers have been telling fans for years to just watch the movies and skip it. The retellings on Toonami not only got good ratings, but the DVDs sold out for the first boxset despite the movie of Battle of Gods being cheaper.

This is crazy

This is truly crazy. I wonder how bigger Dragon Ball would be if Toei were able to put out simuldubs of it. With some great planning and organization I think they could be able to do simultaneous releases of dubbed Dragon Ball in North and South America.
I don't know if that would ever be possible or not, but simul-dubs would make Dragon Ball's popularity skyrocket in my opinion.

You know, stuff like this makes you even prouder to be a DB fan.

Doesn't surprise me. Outside of Japan, Latin America is by far the biggest fandom in the West. They LOVE Dragon Ball.

yea, i am sure a bunch of youtube commenters will effect the ratings in Japan. LOL

This morons that just bitch all the time and then watch every episode are the worst. Acting all smart just cause they seen the spoilers is really amazing. The show would be 5X more interesting if most of these youtube guys wouldn't know what is going to happen.

I’m sure people in Japan will be pissed aswell. So that argument is invalid. Did you really think that the western fanbase of Dragon Ball was the only one with opinions??

[BlueBasilisk]

I won't be too surprised if Frieza manages to squander his chance at victory yet again in his infinite butthurt. Last time we saw him in 12...7, (I think?), he was spewing fire and venom at Jiren because of the injuries he'd sustained. 'To hell with the rules! You deserve to be killed by me!' or something to that effect. At that point Jiren had just tagged him with a stray ki blast. How composed do you think he's going to be now that Jiren has played pinball with him directly?

Hispanic fans take anime seriously as much as soccer (I'm not kidding here). So dont be surprised if there are riots after episode 130 airs or do stuff like burning DB merchandise

With all due respect: but what you said was pretty stupid.
