I can't remember the last time a 14 second clip made me smile so much. I'm trying to go into this with no expectations at all, but I'm getting excited.

I have some questions

Majin Boo ultimate defeat was in age 774 right? Then 2 years later (776), Tarble come to Earth? And then in Age 779 we know about the God Of Destruction Beerus and now SUPER is set in Age 780? 4 years before EoZ (784)?

Correct me if I'm wrong

Like I said again, I'll just wait until I hear a word of mouth, cuz right now, I'm not impressed. Though I'm surprised Beerus will make an appearance. Here's to hope that it'll be about the 12 universes, oh yeah, that's right, still ain't watching it until I see a "majority" reception.

Well yeah. My guess is he either gets entertained, or he gets new riffing material. It's a win win for him either way.
Why Dragon Ball Consistency in something such as power levels matter!

You can tell someone to do that while watching a person take a shit. Doesn't make it any more pleasant.
"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

Pretty sure watching a show with elements you may not like is not the same as a bowel movement >_>

There are plenty of movies that you can enjoy as long as you don't think too deeply about them.

If that scene is pre-RoF, he could be trying to control the SS transformation and God at the same time, but still can't. Then he punches the ground in disappointment. It's one of many possible contexts, but it's clear to me that he isn't actually fighting anyone, so he doesn't have a reason to use SSGSS.

On the other hand, Videl's design looks closer to RoF than BoG to me, the bangs in particular. And is Vegeta wearing his RoF outfit at the end?

Then why do you care? Honest question.
If i hadn't bother to watch even Z, i would stop caring about any Dragonball animation ages ago.

True. For example, the Buu saga is enjoyable, but even when you don't think too deeply about the shit some characters did, the saga's still dumb, and it'll be the dumbest saga of Dragon Ball history.

Just as I expected. People hate it. Guys, people hate this. I am right. People are disappointed. There are also a lot of people assuming things. For the people not jumping the gun, I thank you. If I could give this fanbase a hug, I would.

I don't hate this. We're doing shout-outs/references to the Jump 08 special; I love that special.

I still don't know if this is pre or post F though.

No matter what they show us I'm sure this fanbase will still find its flaws and nitpick over it.
