Are You sure?
About the game leak from VJump? Yeah, here's my source:
http://www.animenewsnetwork.com/news/20 ... 3ds/.85071
There's also a thread in the videogame section on the Kanzenshuu forums. ANN article says it's from VJump.
It means someone interested in Dragon Ball has a copy of the magazine, but chooses to focus on this new game ahead of F news for personal reasons, or it's shorter and easier to translate.

Maybe, I misunderstood... I was under an impression that
F will get new updates in the following V-Jump copy...

If we don't get anything new this time then it's safe to say we won't till March 30th.

The Toyotaro manga adaption starts in VJump this month though. We'll have that.

We'll probably get little to nothing out of it but hopefully I'm wrong.

Well get our first real look at the story. That's pretty significant regardless of Earth-shattering plot details.

Are you sure ? If yes then finally they should have done this last month at the latest.

It wouldn't fair to have a second official trailer before the manga adaptation's appearance?

As far as the debate on Freeza having a body or not in Hell goes, I have to admit, I'm torn. On the one hand, I'd prefer this fit better with things Toriyama himself has done before, which always involved villains not getting to keep their bodies. So unless something is specifically noted about him getting to keep his body for torture reasons or something, then that'll be a bit jarring.
At the same time though...I actually always kind of liked the idea of the villains all being stuck in Hell with their bodies in tact, and their torture is...well...basically sitting around all day being bored out of their freaking minds. That seems to me like the kind of Hell that Toriyama would come up with, so I've always been able to work with that kind of thing easily enough. Not to mention the stuff we got of them all being stuck there in the anime was always hilarious.
Really hoping we do get some news out of this Toyotaro manga soon, even if it's just the most incidental info.

In the first trailer we got Goku fighting Frieza while Gohan and the others took on his henchmen so what's left is Vegeta vs Frieza which I doubt we'll see based on how they marketed the last movie.
So if they're doing the same thing this time then we might not get a second trailer.

If someone took the time to post images of some DBZ 3DS game from a magazine then surely you'd think they'd have certainly have posted any movie related manga scans by now.

I wonder if we will finally see Whis in action at least for the training session?

Still no leaks? It's taking a while, isn't it? Are we positively sure it's in this month's issue?

Someone on Twitter said there's going to be a lot of info about the movie but I don't know how reliable he/she is.

I wonder why they are being so secretive about this movie. Where's all the merchandise? All the marketing? Aside from exclusive-japanese toys, of course. Why has Fox stopped announcing the dates? What in the world is happening?

They might not be comfortable promoting a Vegeta focused movie so they're just going to leave us with what they showed us about Goku,Gohan,Piccolo,ect.

Did Freeza really keep his body in Hell or is it just people guessing because I'm kinda confused? I like the idea of good people keeping their bodies after death while the evil ones get stuck with a ghost body while they suffer in Hell.

As far as I know it's fan speculation cause they just said the angles were guarding him so that could mean his soul.

Even the good people lose their bodies. They never really touch upon what requirements are needed to keep your body. We know that Goku & company kept them because plot.
