"It’s called Dragon Ball Super. And it’s the first new, original Dragon Ball television anime in nearly two decades.

The last Dragon Ball TV anime, Dragon Ball GT, aired from 1996 to 1997.

Yahoo News (via tipster Pyke) and Famitsu report that Dragon Ball creator Akira Toriyama will be handling the new anime’s story. The series will take place after Goku defeats Majin Buu, and the world has become a peaceful place again.

In Japanese, the title is Dragon Ball Chou (Super), as “chou” (超) means “super,” “hyper,” “ultra,” or even “very.”

The reason for the “chou” naming, Goku’s voice actor Masako Nozawa, explains is that the word is always used in Dragon Ball commercials, video games, and whatnot. Now it will go in the title of the new animated series that is set to air starting this July in Japan."

WOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!

tbh

HEEEECK YUYAAAA

I'm irrationally excited over this.

I'm skeptical personally, I'm definitely watching, but not really sure what kind of villain could truly follow up Buu in a tv series.

^ If Battle of Gods and Revival of F are canon movies, then according to Beerus there'd be other parallel universes where there are stronger fighters and other Gods of Destruction. (We may hear from Future Trunks' timeline.)

So I think the era of Super Saiyans is going to switch to Super Saiyan Gods (Can't imagine Goten or Trunks turning to SSG's though lol)

Those are indeed canon movies.

Am I the only one that finds the SSG thing to be the worst thing ever? I fucking hated it. >_>

The blue haired thing is way worse.

Anything above SSJ3 is dumb a'f tbh.

As if you wouldn't want the power to grow your own swag monkey shirt.

SS3 was dumb as fuck.

Have you ever been so angry you became an 80's metal singer?

imo the SSGod and SSGodSS (super saiyan god super saiyan) aka the blue hair are far better then SS3 and SS4.

...

I agree with that.

Recently watched Battle of Gods and really liked it, I'm totally up for this, though it means that GT will probably be even further ridiculed by Akira and eventually you won't be able to explain the fact they didn't use SSG or SSGSS

At this point I think they are pretending GT never happen and is pretty much out of the canon. At least I like to pretend it was.
