Also, I'm pretty sure the dub is coming sooner than usual.

I have the funimation app on my ps4. Wonder if it'll be on there

Plot synopsis for the first episode:

Quote:

After defeating Majin Buu, life is peaceful once again. Ordered by Chi-chi to earn money, Goku works even as he wants to train even more. Meanwhile, Goten, about to become a brother-in-law to Videl, sets out on a journey with Trunks to find her a present.

The fat Beerus and female Whiz picture has been angering the internet. Guess they'll have some stuff on alternate dimensions in the show.

*TheCanadiandrome* · 06-18-2015, 09:33 AM

Sounds cool to me

*snake* · 06-18-2015, 02:10 PM

I wonder what the pacing will be like. Hopefully better than Z, but I really don't care.

MutantBear · 06-18-2015, 02:18 PM

With what they said about there being 200 episodes at least, I'm not sure if this is going to be true.

Who knows, though.

.

That's not true, they never said how many episodes the series would be. That was just a fansite speculating.

The Dragonball Super Website was just updated and it has been said it will be 100 episodes. The fat Beerus is also named Champa the female Whis hasn't been named yet. I'm betting it will be Wine or maybe Vodka to match the name pun from the other three.

An alternate dimension where Buu actually let him have some pudding and he overindulged, for example?

Angering the Internet... why? (Stupid question, I know.

)

But hey, wouldn't be the first time we saw an alternate timeline... Dare I hope they take a minute to establish GT as an parallel reality, casting it aside officially once and for all!?

Well, Akira Toriyama promised a new character who is stronger than both Beerus and Whiz, and people feel a little bit cheated as they would have liked an original character. That's what I'm getting from what I see.

That doesn't really make sense considering this is a new character. Beerus said in Battle of Gods that he was the 7th of 12 Gods, who each rule over their own universe, and from what I've read online this Champa character is the 9th God of Destruction from the 9th universe .

Now that would be awesome.

*CyberCubed* · 06-19-2015, 05:39 PM

I'm wary of this series. I don't think they're capable of crafting a good Dragonball series 18 years later. They probably should have just stuck with yearly movies.

Peanut · 06-19-2015, 06:47 PM

Toriyama is salty his pal Oda has surpassed him. Time to resurrect that corpse!

*sdp* · 06-19-2015, 06:53 PM

The revival of F came out yesterday in theaters here so I'm going to be watching it, I'll let you guys know how it goes since it's basically sort of a pilot (as was the other movie) to this new series. I also can't see this new series being anything ground breaking, it won't be terrible but it'll leave us a "why did they revive it" feeling since it won't be doing anything new or special, again let's see how much of the fandom is divided and how much prefer GT after it airs. And no matter what the purists think, Toriyama doesn't care about GT one way or another and TOEI likes the GT characters since they continue to sell them as figures/video game characters so I doubt you'll get a hard contradiction to GT outside smaller stuff that can be explained that's already been done in the previous movies.

In Japan, Dragon Ball/Z/GT never went away. The anime has been airing constantly for years in constant reruns. There have been games not released outside of Japan for years, like those video card games in the arcades where you must collect actual Dragon Ball cards to play and they have had commercials for them. It's still popular and well-known. So yeah, there's still a lot of Dragon Ball exposure, bringing in newer generations.

*CyberCubed* · 06-19-2015, 08:30 PM

Merch continued but there was no TV show from GT in 1997 to Kai (if you count that), and now till Super. TOEI doesn't seem to count Kai because they call DB Super "the first new Dragonball series in 18 years."

Gus's I'm in the minority liking GT
