In all honesty the thing that most interests me about all this is Trunks new scarf. Looks very similar to 17's scarf given the colour being red rather than GT's blue. Could be a shout out to gt, or it could mean something more

So Toriyama so ran out of ideas that he's stealing the plot of Reboot?

Quote:
"Why has Future Trunks returned to the present again after defeating Cell and attaining peace?"


This is not a rhetorical question? Did I put those in the wrong order? Why can't I stop phrasing these as questions?

Reboot had Enzo and Matrix so Future Trunks will be called .... Boxers? These also had Bob and Evil Bob... Evil Ash has nothing to do with Black Bart? Wait, it's really Goku Black but not Black Goku? And wasn't that Turles?

Quote:
"Who will be the future's new enemy?"

Toriyama. Huh, it stopped.

I loved the time travel Dragon Ball Androids story... especially once you realize Cell killed that Future Trunks who just came back... to the future. And Android 16 is not the Terminator and Cell has nothing to do with alien...

Ok, complaining about "originality" at this point is pointless. But... what's the deal with the sword... again? And is Boxers coloring his hair?

So Future Trunks is the character Toriyama said kids these days liked.

OMG! Are are they going to animate the "Shin Budokai: Another Road" story with some SUPER changes? Wink

Goku Black:



I don't think he said kids liked.

An epic idea and the changes super did to the movie versions, on paper are amazing. But in motion (animation wise) I was disappointed and still am. Super shenlong is a typical DragonBall thing. Exaggerate things until it's ridiculously badass. But the animation even in that important episode was terrible.

People have given me reasons why it looks the way it does. But I wont sit back and accept everything that toei is throwing at me. I love super and it's story but the execution is not done respectfully.

a part of me is disappointed because I was hoping for some Gohan focus after the universe 6 stuff, but on the other hand at least we're getting the cool Trunks back

More likely he is what Goku might have been if he didn't loose his memories.


Basically Turles 2.0

Seems strange when you remember how close Goku was to destroying the earth.

So was Bulma's originally :earth.

Ummmm why would there be?

Especially given how Gohan has little to no reason to be invested in the conflicts in Super and people complain enough about the Saiyans getting too much exposure over the non saiyan cast.

I hope we see SSJ3 Trunks. Even though it's not like it's strong anymore but that SSJ3 design on Trunks is SO GOOD

well they didn't care about the people on earth they was just keeping their son safe (see DB Minus)
