The first episode of Dragon Ball Super has hit Japanese air waves, leaving some viewers disappointed due to a lack of its legendary fight scenes, as well as the fact that the anime has shown intentions of retelling the entirety of the “Battle of The Gods” movie – ultimately acknowledging that the next however-many episodes may encompass a story that fans have already seen, potentially making the whole thing little more than a recap…

"Why was the movie made at all?" Um, money?
actually most likely it was a business decision to see if there is an audience using the movies to gauge public interest. now that it has the audience they made the anime.

it's like vegeta with a mustache
Are we gonna see the moment Videl and Gohan go to a Love Hotel to make Pan? Hope so...Is it just me or have they made Krillin even shorter? He looks like he is 3 feet tall. Also, what is that thing standing next to Bulma and Vegeta in the cast pic...oh wait...it's Yamcha.
you're reading too much fanfiction in very same Dragonball fansite for over a decade.
One of my childhood anime and it has been a long time. I think I am going to watch this.
Sankaku fans logic:
"There is no 10 year old girl looking so i can fap, so the show is shit."
It's correct. Where dem lolis at? No lolis? It's shit.
I think Bra might have been conceived, and Pan is in the making...
Seeing Videl acting so damn girly feels so wrong....
There is going to be 3 story arcs Battle of Gods, Resurrection of F and Universe 6
I'd still fuck Chi-Chi.
Fun fact: Chi-Chi is younger than Bulma
I'd look for Launch instead
you do see Launch in her normal form as a cameo
the buu saga giving her energyto Goku
You'll never find her. Even Toriyama forgot about her.
i really hope thats not the cause that would really suck if this ends up being that..
i mean with 100 eps and all i was hoping for time skips especially early on to get to after the revival of freeza movie where i was hoping this series was gonna start at but still hope that it does get there asap
oter than that i did like ep 1 though
the opening does show another character that looks like bill. so it might take us on a different route than the movie. most of the movies are very off from the series timeline, so there is hope for new material.
as for this 1st episode... it didn't wow me... so... let's hope it gets better in upcoming episodes.
最喜欢的番 龙珠
That book Gohan has is literally "difficult book".
Nothing will impress chicks more than being seen reading such a book.
Yeah, pretty much...
Well a lot of people consider movies in a different timeline i.e. non canon, so Super if now official canon after Z
Because Money.
>reusing plot from the two movies
>fat bills and skinny bills basically buu 2.0
>goku saves the day and everyone else is useless
>that plastic-looking and stiff animation
4/10
Well I didn't see the movie so I don't care :)
It's a remake of the Battle of the Gods and Freeza arcs, so not a recap.
Legendary fight scenes? Every fan who has suffered DBZ before it was streaming everywhere, shown everyday on some channel or just being able to be completely downloaded with a button knows that Z was the most horribly paced show of all time. Yeah the fights were good (credit given to the director at the time; I hope is he back for this show) but you had to wait an eternity to get to them.
So boohoo to you that the first episode didn't blow your mind. Now you know what it was like watching this show for the first time week to week while Goku runs on Snake way for like 4 months.
Except back in the day we were able to wait, and watch, and it was exciting. The ADD riddles kids of today do not have the attention span to watch it anymore.
If you can't handle it, go watch 50 other things on youtube to get your shits and giggles.
I thought that it was finished already.
Do people know not to expect something extreme right off the bat? After all this franchise has gone through multiple movies two canon series with only a live action movie, Dragon Ball GT, and Yamcha slowing it down.
WHAT IF THERE'S A REBOOT OF DRAGON BALL Z?
i WOULD SUGGEST MAKE A REBOOT AFTER THE FRIEZA SAGA, FUTURE TRUNKS DID NOT COME AND GOKU COMES THEN DUTIFULLY SAVES THE WORLD AGAIN.
personally, I dont like seeing dragonball being remade.
It ended with GT (yes i like gt), just let that great series end like it suppose to instead of giving it new touches and improvements or new story line.
Dragon Ball GT isn't part of the series canon, it also stopped being a part of the canon when the movies came out, and now Super.
Not only was GT full of aids and fail, it no longer exists in this universe. As far as these characters are concerned, it never happened.
Mayhaps they are adapting the movie until the BluRay comes (for those who didn't see it in theaters) and then they will continue with the story? It would be nice to get an official statement or something.
from what i read, this episode is before battle of the gods, next episode will be fun, Vegeta as a family man
Team Four Star is so much better I can't even bring myself to watch anything else Dragon Ball.
This is the truth.
Im sure the movie is gonna fit in somewhere.... Maybe not? who know Akira Toriyama is mental when it comes to timelines.
It's after Buu's defeat as stated by the actual show and every press release about it.
Except the movies (that are somehow going to fit into this) as well as the start of the new season are already out of sync.
Years have passed and yet the children are still kids,
Trunks i believe is a teenager now, and Goten is 12.
Yet they've not changed at ALL.
The only issue here is that there's no consistency between the show and the movies (nothing new in db), but not the placement of super in the timeline, which was what the original comment asked.
i actually like the first dragon ball series better than Z and the following ones, because over-the-top fight with always-stronger-than-strong ennemies are getting old real fast ....
so this movie looks nice ! :D
the first tv series had Bulma nekkid and it was in her teens.
It is not a movie dumb ass
So you don't like z because they were fighting stronger than strong enemies as you put it. You mean like in Dragonball where they kept building up to the same tournament throughout where they fought stronger than strong enemies?
Or maybe you mean when they fought piccolo who was stronger than them?
Or an army?
Be honest you just like it better than z because you got to see drawings nudity.
Muzukashii Hon
Dragon Ball, God of the Animes.
So wtf is canon know, the movies or this series? fucking trollei.
