The glorious return of

made this an amazing episode. Pretty well animated too, kudos :clap:

This series has really improved ever since the early days, though the Hearts vs Goku fight still stands at the top.

At least it's Demigra this time. I'm glad because he never had a proper animated fight to date.

I could easily skip an animate Demigra fight for something refreshing. I like the ideas that came from the DDR such as Dark Broly, Dark Masked King Vegeta, etc, but I think it's flogging a dead demon horse.

To be honest, I actually hoped to see more development of Yamcha's new potential relationship, heck, I actually hope it can become canon in some way, even if I know that this product is as separate from the main franchise as it can be :(

This episode ended up being pretty interesting. Aeos seems very calculated and actually knows what she is doing, I like it. It's been a long time since we had a real main female villain. I also really like Aeos' new transformation. I saw that some people didn't specially enjoy the colors, but I think it looks pretty.

Episode 45:

- Two magical girls fighting each other, I feel like watching another anime (not saying it's bad) lol

- Goku vs. Aeos was good, better than the overall fights in this series

- Demigra showing up might be promising always thought he was an interesting villain design and concept wise

Episode 46:

- Though I always liked the alternate (black) color of Omega Shenron in most DBZ games, didn't dig much his design here as one of Demigra demons or such...

- Gogeta entrance was awesome, also loved the references to their previous battle in GT.

- Aios having to join forces with Goku to fight Demigra is classic DB, but where did Gogeta go?

- So we see the other demons are a chick... and of course, Broly (again) lol

I agree, I find this new “demon” Omega shenron design a little busy and weird looking. I just went back to compare how he looked when Goku black summoned him from a scroll and that one kept the original design, which I prefer.

Either way I guess he won’t be showing up again :lol:

Not yet I don’t think—I’ve been checking by search and Twitter every now and then to no avail.

I just rewatched the last arc in its entirety and…. Man, I hope this next one is better. I found the space-time tournament pretty lame in its execution.

I'm expecting a new episode this very February, because the manga just caught up and the anime has to be one step ahead.
Let's see if my theory holds true :twisted:

I hope you are!

On a random note, SDBH introduced probably my favorite characterization trait of Goku in any depiction: that upon discovering there’s an alternate version of himself with different powers, one of his life goals is now to have the ultimate uninterrupted sparring match with him. It’s so Goku :lol:

Got my question answered faster than I thought!
New episode is on the 12th, which is in just 4 days.

What I found really interesting in the previous episode is the mention of a Space-Time Angel (時空天使).
Would be interesting if we learn more about it in the future. I mean it's called "Ultra God Mission", so the introduction of a new deity or something is totally possible.

It's always been up and down. But mostly down and average.

Obligatory "the manga is better" I mean none of this shit is shakespere but the manga actually feels like a real standalone story and not just an advert for the game if you didn't know about it you'd think it was weird and oddly paced but accept it.

I'd quite like it if the Rumoured web series was a "canonized version" of SDBH using one of the two Trunks from the two timelines, made to fit with the new super revelations, adapting the first arcs too. A boy can dream.
Yamcha almost certainly did not cheat on Bulma:
He was afraid of Women, Bulma was the flirty one.
Yamcha wanted to get married (it was his gonna be his wish)
He suggested they settle down in the Trunks saga.
Alternate future Trunks is not a reliable source.
Toriyama wanted new SSJ Kids and not make new characters.

Now that we are close to its debut, I'm still baffled at the next episode's title. Considering the spoilers we got for the UGM8 arcade
, it's so weird to me they mention a "fist of justice". Why would you do that if it isn't related to Jiren?

Don't get me wrong, it would be great to see him doing...well, anything at all in the anime, but you would think that with such a title the episode would be dedicated to him.
. These last episodes have actually been pretty good imho thanks to their pacing, but I'm worried we are going to get a rushed one next not unlike the one that covered the final fight against Crimson last arc. I wish the episodes were just monthly again instead of being in a two months format.

I hope we get to see the Turles vs Cell fight even if it's just for a few seconds. I'm probably more interested in those two that in most of the other characters, trough it is satisfying to finally see payoff for Demigra after so long.

This reminds me of how the "normal" version of Future Trunks was so important in the anime at first, before just disappearing after the Hearts conflict was over.

I mean he does deserve a damn good break for sure, but I do wonder why they had he appear at all in the first place if his Xeno version was going to get SSG and all but replace him
