    Seeing those teasers makes me kinda sad. That being said my initial thoughts are this should be decent if not good. Akira is back at the helm if I understand properly, since it's an anime and not a manga adapted to a n anime we shouldn't have to deal with filler or hour long power ups simply because they are trying to give the manga some breathing room to get past them. Hopefully he fleshed out the twelve dimensions mentioned by Beerus/Bills in Battle of Gods before starting. One of the biggest problems with DBZ is that while it mostly fell together well it's really obvious at points that Akira didn't really know where he was headed when he started and just kinda kept going.

    It's going to look AMAZING and might be worth it just to watch the fights.

    So I loved DBZ when it ran on the cartoon network and even picked up some Japanese versions on VHS back in the day. But I'm far from a nerd for it. I.e. I don't know the back story of how it was made, never read up on it or anything.

    So is this new show going to be like a reboot or retelling of the story? Or what exactly?

    It seems the first part is going to be a retelling of Battle of Gods.

    So apparently they will be retelling the last two movies in story arc form as well as taking a trip to the 6th Universe.

    Straight from Akira Toriayama

    “Dragon Ball Super” is a complete continuation of the Majin Buu story arc. It’s got a bit of post-battle aftermath, continues with the “Battle of Gods” arc where the God of Destruction Beerus appears and the “Revival of ‘F'” arc where Freeza comes back to life, and then, I’ve written a strange new story where they finally depart even this universe. They’re fighting against their neighbors, Universe 6! They’ll yell at me if I give away too many spoilers, so I’ll keep the rest a secret, but they’re chasing after giant super Dragon Balls; I think things will unfold in a bright and simple way, that will be really fun and exciting!

    Since it’s another universe, loads of new characters will turn up. I’ll do my best to draw the tons of character designs necessary, so I’m looking forward to this too.

    You know, it suddenly occurs to me that somewhere along the line the Dragon Ball anime has become quite a huge story. Since I’m the guy who drew the thing, it’s a bit weird for me to say this, but when I first started out I never dreamed it would have a universe as a setting (laughs). Don’t worry though, it’s still going to be the same sort of easy-to-understand content as always. Please be sure to watch Dragon Ball Super on TV!”

    The shows opening.



    Haven't found the episode yet which is annoying since One Piece is everywhere and DBS is that show's lead in.

    Interesting first episode. Slice of life stuff with Goku and Goten hanging out, and Goten and Trunks looking for a present for Videl. Next week Vegeta goes on vacation with Bulma and Trunks. Beerus is more overtly evil than he was in the movies. That bugged me a bit.

    Some interesting stuff coming up in between the Battle of Gods arc and the Golden Freeza arc. Plus we now know about the 6th Universe arc. Champa, the fat Beerus, is in fact Beerus' brother and the God of Destruction of Universe 6. How the 12 Universes in Dragon Ball works is the Universes that add up to 13 are like parallel to each other. Like 1 and 12 would be and 6 where Champa is from and 7 which is the Dragon Ball Universe. In Universe 6 all the humans on Earth died because of war. Champa wants Universe 7's Earth because the food is so good. So basically there is gonna be a tournament and Champa is Shao Khan and Beerus is Raiden.

    Sorta odd that the lead in to this evil Goku arc is an evil Vegeta mini arc.

    You gotta give Trunks and I presume that is Mai credit. No amount of fucked up future is enough to put that gangsta down. I'm kinda curious what leads to Black Goku. Though Super thus far really isn't that much better than GT. You'd think decades to learn from your mistakes would at least lead to you making new mistakes but instead they are making all the same fucking ones.

    Goku and Vegeta are once again firmly on top of the food chain. Where as DBZ officially left off with Gohan much stronger than either of them. Why they didn't wish him up to beat Kid Buu like a drum is anybody's guess. Regardless of if you agree that Kid Buu was the weakest Buu like many fans myself included think, Super Buu was stronger than Fat. Vegeta couldn't beat Fat, Gohan whomped Super so hard he decided to let his kid brother have another shot because why not. Given that Goku was matching Super Water Vegeta without going Super or Blue the fact that base Vegeta>SSJ3 Gottenks is beyond fucking absurd.

    Worse despite the leads widening the gap again, everybody else was crammed together. Frieza's soldiers couldn't even beat Roshi. . .except Ginyu/what's his name who beat Gohan without difficulty.

    Has anyone still been following this? I recently powered through the series to catch up. The movie recaps were ok, mostly for minor, but interesting changes to characterization, and some of the smaller details they explained that were kind of glossed over in the movies. The bit about Goku and Vegeta getting training from Whis leading to the second movie was pretty awesome though.

    Everything since has been kind of a mixed bag. I enjoy the concepts and where the arcs are going. The tournament one was fun, but if I wasn't watching it on a binge, it was far too dragged out with minimal action. I'm glad they brought back the clever ways that each person in the tournament was advancing, and the overall story was pretty awesome(and the battle with Hit was actually pretty sweet), but it just felt like the actual fighting took up little time and was never much to enjoy. This new arc has been a bit different, but this week's episode was probably the first that had me drawn in the whole time. HUGE reveal at the end that still leaves you with a lot of questions, and it actually had a solid chunk of action with decent choreography on top of all the relaxing "calm before the storm" moments. Possibly the best episode so far. Or at least, one of them.

    EPISODE SPOILER

    And yeah, Atty, if you're a DB fan, you should. You can honestly skip the first two arcs if you have seen the movies(though the in-between episodes explaining how Vegeta and Goku start training with Whis is pretty cool), and the tournament arc has it's flaws, and then there's silly filler. But the Future Trunks/Black arc has been excellent. A LOT of good action and some shocking moments. And if you're a Trunks/Vegeta fan, there's a lot to be stoked about.

    I liked it, too. It's the first part of Super I really enjoyed. It just felt flat at a couple points, and I was hoping for better fights. The only one really worth a damn was the one with Hit. But I would recommend anyone watch it, because it's still good.

    Seems people either loved or hated this week's episode. I was totally into it. Even if the resolution made little sense.

    It was fun to watch but I've hated Trunks since his return. I mean apparently he's been roughly on par with SSB any time he really wants to be and WHY? Oh and he accidentally Spirit Bombed?

    Seriously. GTFO.

    He's been doing it all arc! Remember the Goten and Trunks arc reveals that Vegeta is UNTRANSFORMED more powerful than SSJ3 Gottenks. Meaning Trunks even when he's sparing with Goku is way more powerful than makes sense. . .or you know power levels are more bullshit than usual.

    Let's keep in mind that Gohan has always been extra powerful than your typical saiyan, and the same could easily be said for Trunks. Trunks also had Supreme Kai training. Maybe not quite as extensive as Gohan's training, but for him to do that and then become SSJ2, that's going to pretty much make him at least as strong as Goku SSJ3 during the Buu Saga. Power levels are bullshit, but there is a hint of logic there.

    Making Krillin a police officer is such a brilliant move. It highlights how powerful he and the other humans really are as opposed to the gargantuan strength of the saiyans. I remember as a kid, I would play "make believe" with Dragon Ball, and I had made Gohan a cop at one point. It just made sense that eventually one of those heroes would want to put their efforts toward legal crime-fighting, considering they'd be so damn good at it. I'm glad Krillin got the nod.
