    I'm glad Toriyama's on board, and I hope the new Saiyans/characters are awesome.

    I sense a great disturbance in the force. 0_o'

    Didn't the last DB movie do horribly? Or is this an animated film?

    It looks like Goku is fighting a saiyan in that clip.

    So I have a few theories on the villian, with a "long awaited battle" from the teaser text a while back...

    1. Yamoshi, obviously being my first theory. don't know how, but yamoshi...
    2. Universe 6 equivalent of Yamoshi, who was frozen in the tundra until goku/vegeta's visit to sadla (remember that vegeta said about berzerker Kale being "the true form" of the saiyans. This one is less likely from the "long awaited battle" bit, though...)
    3. (I seriously don't want this one, but i can see it happening) bardock or broly..... (please no...)

    but that last thing "Earth has Goku" REALLY has me thinking like mad!!!!

    Official "DB Super 2018 Movie" Discussion Thread - Page 98 • Kanzenshuu

    Some news:

    The DBS movie will be a "multi-layered" story that switches between both the past & present, it will include multiple settings.

    Akira Toriyama has provided the story and over 20 sheets of designs, including characters, machines and at least one new planet.

    He also told Toei to watch out when auditioning a new character designer and see if they could make a character look cool standing straight facing forward. Saying “It’s easier to make a character look cool facing to one side, but they often look awkward facing straight ahead.” He thoroughly checked body balance, to see if candidates properly understood the body inside the martial arts uniform.

    So we know that he’s being very attentive to not only quality but a particular style he’s decided upon. He wants the designer to be able to take care of the fundamentals.

    In the end, Toriyama personally selected Shintani as the new character designer.

    This is the art style we saw within the new trailer meant to reflect the old Dragon Ball look in both design and animation. Hence why Goku looks like 23rd BT era. I personally love this art style a lot and the fluidity it brings.

    Iyoku says Toriyama’s story includes a lot of crowd-pleasing generally I’d assume and many people are probably assuming relating to nostalgia among other things but perhaps also in the sense of “fan-service”, and indeed the wording he uses according to Herms is actually “fan-service”. He’s stated that Bulma and the rest of the female cast will be extra cute which could back the idea that they meant that.

    Sounds interesting, hoping for a fun film.

    I'm still trying to figure out how Goku could be fighting a saiyan. I mean, it's conceivable that they go into the history of the saiyans without introducing new ones.

    Maybe Goku goes to universe 6. I'd like that. I hope they don't go with the ass-pull and say a tribe of saiyans somehow survived on another planet.

    i'd love it if he was universe 6's equivalent of Yamoshi that's been frozen until goku does something or another. that one poster image with the shadow in the ice pretty much convinced me that. (i don't have the image on me, though)

    DB designs have come some way since the saga's birth.
