Two other spoilers. Potential rumored summary of the first manga issue: quote:Basically. Goku imagines fighting Freeza/Cell/Boo while farming; Goten's off from school and is helping him out. Satan shows up and offers him money from the world peace prize (kind of sounds like the DB Earth equivalent of the Noble). Goku refuses at first (he wasn't the only one who fought Boo after all, and even Satan did his part), but finally agrees to accept some of the prize when Goten points out that with it, Chi Chi will probably allow him to stop farming and go off and train at Kaio's. And the name of the new character: quote:"彼の名はシャンパ!!" His name is Champ (Shanp)! Curious to see how this translates into English, as we already have one Champ!

This freaks Goku out, and he doesn't want such an insane amount of money. Then of course he agrees when Goten points out that with the money, he wouldn't have to work and could just go to Kaio's to train. lol this could be straight out of DBZA

I hope the whole thing isn't a prequel to the new movies.. I want them to catch up by the end of the first arc. We know everyone is happily alive by the first movie, so if there's no credible threat, then new baddies won't be as entertaining to me. It's the same reason I can't get into network shows anymore. These actors are under contract for multiple seasons, you're not going to kill someone off, so they're automatically going to win every fight and survive every gunshot.

The real issue I have is that, despite knowing that the Dragon Balls will always be magical reset buttons, there's no chance for real drama when you know all of the cast makes it out of Super alive/unchanged because the epilogue of Z has them all showing up, and there's no new characters either. Toriyama drew an image of the full cast (minus a few people like Launch/the Kaios) in their epilogue appearances. I'd really like it if Super kind of plays catch up at first and then has a time skip to post-epilogue so we can see Uub and Pan grown up, as well as Goku and Vegeta showing off SSGSS.

Everything we hear says that it goes into and past the new movies. The most likely progression is: works its way up to BoG, Bog happens, works its way up to Revival of F, Revival F happens, then all new stuff.

Webbeh posted:Ahh that dragon rules. I posted battle damaged SSJ Goku, but not SSGSS Goku since it had been announced for a while. I have the original release Trunks (  ), base Goku, SSJ Goku, SSJ Gohan, and I have Piccolo and SSGSS Goku on pre-order at BBTS, but none of the Vegetas. He's not my favorite character, but I know I want at least one version of him. I think I'll pick up his Cell Saga AND SSGSS versions because I hate money. The SDCC exclusive Goku and battle damaged SSJ Goku are too good to pass up. I think I'll probably end up with every Goku figure because, again, I hate money. I'm going to a convention in a week so I'll be on the look out for any other figures I might want, but I'm pretty happy with not collecting the villains apart from the arguable Beerus. I'd love a Krillin, but I'm on the fence about SSJ3 Goku, Ultimate Gohan and Vegetto. I like the Buu Saga a lot more than I remember, so if I can find them for reasonable prices, I'll grab 'em, but as it is, I'm happy with the ones I have.

I was about to ask what are the chances we might see Pikkon during this series and then realized how weird it is Dragonball skipped straight over the other four cardinal directions of it's own dimensions for story arcs and villains to just jump straight in to other dimensions. I suppose it makes sense since Freeza was apparently the strongest in this universe and all, but poo poo, Buu was already lurking around there even giving Cell a pass as something that wasn't around at the time, so you'd think they'd have done something with the other Kaio's and parts of the universe at some point really. Who is the new character that the second spoiler mentions anyways? He doesn't appear to be mentioned at all in the first, so do we know what role he has or anything?

Those figures look cool as poo poo and I will never own any of them.  I hope what they do with some of the episodes is show some extended stuff of the movies, like Pilaf's own quest for the Dragonballs, or Mr. Satan trying his best to distract Goten and Trunks from noticing all the powerful auras on the planet. And Freiza training montage.

Goku is Bulma's -- one of the world's wealthiest people -- oldest friend and has saved her more times than Goku can count. How the hell does he need a job? I know he isn't a moocher and that may play into it, but you'd think Bulma's birthday gifts to Goku alone would be enough to keep him financially afloat, if the prizes for her Bingo! tournament were any indication.

I wouldn't get too hyped for the goofy, slice-of-life side of things, the way they've presented it so far kind of sounds like its the calm before the storm for another DBZ adventure. It does look amazing though and something I've definitely wanted to see from Dragonball for a while

Since it's Goku, I imagine working a tractor is actually way more taxing to him than plowing a field by hand, which would take him near-zero amount of effort.

Still, good to see those driving lessons came in handy.

Did you forget the Great Saiyaman saga? Either Chi Chi is too prideful, or Bulma is stingy in giving money because they were clearly broke and was the only reason why she let Gohan purposely fight in a tournament.

Mr Satan forms a Sentai team, with himself as the lead using the Z fighters to help promote himself as well as enrich the rest of them financially thanks to lucrative merchandising rights. Krillin, Goku, Mr. Buu and a very reluctant Piccolo fill out the ranks. They go around rescuing kittens, putting out fires and doing other rather mundane hero jobs, the rest of them training hard while Krillin trains Mr. Satan, eventually teaching him to fly and throw a kamehameha wave or something so that he can look cool as hell for the cameras and help him bond with the group and with Gohan, the teams accountant and manager to boot. Videl and Gohan can be the team's extra members, debuting just in time to help them out in them out of some minor jam. Mr Satan eventually takes on some mooks alongside the rest in the first big brawl. Who doesn't want to be saved by "The Satan Force" after all? tsob fucked around with this message at 00:42 on Jun 19, 2015 |
