Dragon Ball Super |OT6| The waiting game
- Thread starter ArchedThunder
- Start date
Blue is overall an underwhelming transformation. It's taken over SSJ1 as basically the default new look, but because of that it's treated pretty normally rather than a noticeably Next Big Thing. There was no build up to the transformation, and Goku and Vegeta both ultimately end up losing their first fights in it.
There are other transformations in Super though, including God, that are better treated as a big deal.
Well, about Goku, it's because Moro was leeching their power and in the scale of transformations SSJ3 is the step before God I guess...
Vegeta training arc it's something that always works, like when he reached SSJ and Bluev2
Those transformations are so different that I never thought that Goku powering down from God will let him go down to SSJ3. Doesn't make any sense for me with all that "God ki is way different! It's also way different at all" thing going on. Also fuck Vegeta for doing his own shit again. He doesn't deserve Yadrat training lol
As Blader said just moments ago, it went from God level Ki and all that to just another tier of transformations, leaving the mystical special side to Ultra Instinct

We don't know when it's coming anymore, but October seems off the table now.
At this point I think it's safe to just say we'll be waiting till Kitaro ends, which will either be March, if it's the same length as the last one, or June if we're unlucky. It could also end September 2020 if we're super unlucky, but that would make it the longest Kitaro series ever and I don't think that's super likely.
Anyways, Ajay went ahead and laid things out.
My guess is that they decided they didn't want to take on more than they could chew with all their currently ongoing shows, Stampede and October's Precure movie.

On the positive side at least the gap will help keep fan burnout away.
That's a lot of interesting information, Arched. But one tidbit stands out about the rest:
WTF TOEI
GET YOUR SHIT TOGETHER
FORGET 2UPER
THE WORLD NEEDS THIS
So we are back to waiting for Jump Festa in September lol
was kitaro 2018 announced it or at jump Festa 2017?

Jump Festa is December.
Also no, Kitaro was announce in late January of the year it started airing.
Who knows when they'll announce Super in relation to it's air date, could be this year, could be next.

Oh yeah, for anybody that cares Bandai stealth confirmed arcs past Namek in Kakarot. A recent magazine had screenshots of Goku in his Gi that debuted in the Androids arc.

We shouldn't have to wait that long at least, even the absolute worst case scenario I can see is like 2 years and 9 months (January 2021), but that honestly seems pretty unlikely to me.
Who knows though I was sure they wouldn't keep Super off air for more than a year originally so I could be 110% wrong.
As long as the show comes back with none of the production issues of season 1 then I'm fine. One of the things I'm most interested in is how new movies will go when we have a show going. Broly came between seasons and assuming they don't retell it that's also where it is narratively, but what about the next movie? We know they are in the very early planning stages of a new movie, which I would guess will be released in 2021 or 2022. Will it be written by Toriyama? Will it be canon? When will it take place? Hopefully we don't go back to Z style movies.
- However a day later, another Toei animator (redacted for privacy) said: "I don't know anything about Dragon Ball Super's continuation, but I'm working on it "
This one's a joke right

It's basically a "I can't talk about it, but I'm on it" comment with a winking emoji and everything.
OP
OP
it pains me to say it, but... they know masako nozawa is 82 years old, right?
dragon ball shouldn't have this much downtime. ever.
OP
OP
Yeah, I also wish they would take advantage of the time she has left as well, but it's business. While this break may mean they miss out on some years with Nozawa down the road they are likely more worried about making sure they don't stretch themselves thin right now like they have in the past. Toei has been on a roll with their productions and they probably want to keep that going.
I am curious what the transition will be like when we no longer have Nozawa as Goku. Obviously it'll be a lot easier if she retires because they can plan for that, but if she unexpectedly passes while a show is on air I can totally see it taking a break for a week or two, if not more.
Either way I hope she stays healthy and energetic for many years to come.
OP
OP
Yeah I brought that up, it would be nice but Toei does like announcing shows closer to release. I guess ultimately it probably depends on what the Dragon Ball Room wants to do with the announcement.
Nozawa's probably got more imitators than Elvis at this point
OP
OP
She used to have her own talent agency, so it wouldn't surprise me if she has a pupil or something.

Some how DB is up year over year for Bandai in Q1.
Interesting since it was down a bit for Toei overall (despite being up in Japan) due to the lack of any new games.
EDIT: Relevant to a recent discussion.

also if we ain't getting any new dragon ball this year, one piece might be the next best thing:
OP
OP
We're a minimum of 8 months away from DB being back on air, potentially more, so take what you can get.
The question is literally if she can or not. If she can, and it's her wish, she definitely should. Being able to continue to act = performance being of good enough quality.
So since Heroes was a bust this time how about some manga wishes/speculation. Since we're leaving Namek and Moro has henchmen I hope this leads to more characters getting involved. Piccolo especially makes a lot of sense, I'm sure he'd want some payback for what they did to Namek.
There was this panel in the last chapter:
And These characters have pretty distinct designs and none of them took part in the battle on Namek, with the exception of the lead dude (Saganbo) who jumped in at the end when the generic prisoners were jobbing. Hopefully these are actual named henchmen in the vein of Zarbon, Dodoria and the Ginyu Force. If more characters get involved it would be nice for them to fight actual named henchmen instead of nameless jobbers. More Namek arc, less F arc.
lol
I've been really enjoying the Moro arc but always in the back of my head I was worried that they would find a gimmick to beat him and it would be over really suddenly with no lasting effect on the overall story. The prisoners being introduced and them being given a power bump with Moro's magic makes me really hopeful that this arc will go on for a while and get more of the gang involved. Also hoping for Vegeta to get some weird techniques from Yardrat, not just the teleport.
OP
OP
Yeah, I hope that now there there might be a tiny bit of down time while Vegeta is on Yardrat that Goku goes and gets some allies.
