I think he will mostly fight Freeza soldiers again.
I hope not. I hope he fights Paragus or Beet who have somehow gotten fairly strong so it is a significant fight.
Let's hope so.

It would be awesome if he'd get some kind of descent powerboost to make him relevant again.
I think they should bring him at least back to 17s level.

You mean SSB level? He'll need some God-form in order for that to happened.

AmazonJP listed that book thingy for the movie I mentioned of before. Looks like it's a novelisation of the movie.

Wait, you mean as in an actual novel? Like Revenge of the Sith Novelization? Because if so, I REALLY want to get an English version of that.

I really doubt it'll be like ROTS', novelizations like that are the exception and not the rule.
When someone tells you, "Don't present your opinion as fact," what they're actually saying is, "Don't present your opinion with any conviction. Because I don't like your opinion, and I want to be able to dismiss it as easily as possible." Don't fall for it.

I don't think that it will happen at all.

A novelisation? That's new. I wonder if it'll have the extra Toriyama stuff that was cut from the script in it.

The last time someone from the production said a movie was good, it turned out to be one of the worst movies... Surely we shouldn't take his word, let's just see for ourselves.
We help! ... Hmm. Always get Autobots out of messes they get into.

He is not on the movie at all and is considered one of the best directors at Toei. This was also from his personal Facebook and not a Toei press release.

You're thinking of Torishima Kazuhiko, who did not work on the movie and was speaking only of the script. Ootsuka Takashi is an ace action director who has actually seen the finished movie.

Fists don't look like that. It's round like a childs.

Here's some other comparisons.

Some more information from Broly's card: https://twitter.com/Cipher_db/status/10 ... 4257744901


Apparently Super Saiyan (Full Power) is triggered by intense sorrow.

Maybe Paragus or Cheylee's death :think:

It wasn't an error. Dragon Balls were used in BoG arc. This happened 6 months only before RoF. When you use a single whish, the balls reactivate themselves 4 months later instead of one full year but in return you can only use the two remaining wishes.
It has to be more than six months since Pan is born during the time Freeza is revived and she looks older than a few weeks.

Goku barely took a backseat in the Buu saga, at best he took a leisurely stroll round back while everyone else cried for him to come back.

Exactly. This seems like genuine praise and not a PR move.

That and they are people who did enjoy Resurrection 'F's script. You have to remember Battle of Gods was blasted for being too slow pace and too much focused on gags, so a movie that was all action was welcomed. I think too many people spent too much time in the echo chamber and believe that Resurrection 'F' is universally hated or looked down on.

Yes. I expected a new design for Vegetto in the Future Trunks arc and we got the same old one, probably will be the same Gogeta as well... Or Toriyama might do a few changes for him to not look too much like a tall SSJ Gotenks.

Wait... 10' foot while in his Legendary Super Saiyan state, right?

He also some some attack pose merch promo art too. Then again he was used quite a bit in the ToP marketing...

It made more money than BoG and has the higher rating on imdb, not the worlds best evidence of quality sure but alone proves it is far from universally hated.
