Can someone get Big B his dog back?Anyone else seen the new movie yet?
It's pretty good and I had a ton of fun with it. The humor is on point and Frieza is absolutely amazing here.

I still feel bardock and trucks where better. But yeah, the movie was great and the way they did visual storytelling by making each combatant fight in a distinct manner was awesome
...Isn't the Battle of the Gods arc what I just watched?It does.
The Goku Black arc and the Battle of the Gods arcs are usually viewed as much stronger.
Beerus is very emphatically not the good guy, nor intended as such. His literal introduction is showing exactly how bad he is, and the Kais make it clear besides that:So, I recently watched Battle of the Gods, Resurrection F, and the first arc of Dragon Ball Super.
Resurrection was all rightish. BotG was fun, really.
But... I kind of felt let down by the show's retelling of the Beerus arc. Partly because it felt like the movie managed to cram more actual entertainment in a third of the screentime.
Partly... I don't know. I find myself liking Goku a lot less now, as an adult watching the show, than years ago, as a kid reading the manga (and I'm not sure if it's Goku who's different or me). I find myself aggravated by Vegeta being considered in-universe a non-shitty husband and father for doing the absolute minimum. I'm annoyed at Videl, whom I remember as quite the firecracker early in the Buu arc, now being defined by smiling passivity. But most of all... the show clearly doesn't want me to think of Beerus as a horrific monster who needs to die for the sake of justice and everyone else's safety, but that's how it made me think of him. Some ill-defined line about how destruction is necessary does not make up for him constantly behaving like a genocidal bully who makes Freeza look harmless in comparison and has the gall to rant about not being shown the respect due to him.
...Does it get better?
"There are deities who exist to protect life. But the opposite is also true. Some deities exist only to end life. Beerus the Destroyer is such a being."
"Yes, but as detestable as it is to us, there is a reason for his destructive ways."
"No! There is no reason at all. The inevitability of his existence does not give meaning to what he does."
IMO Super has some pretty damn amazing highs, some really sucky lows and several meh moments. I'd still recommend watching it but be aware that quality can vary a lot between episodes.
What would you recommend skippingI just... didn't watch some pretty major swaths. Worked for me!
Also the movie version of Ressurection of F has more Jaco action so it's automatically better (seriously Jaco was a blast and even managed to kick ass by using his wits despite not being able to fly or shoot ki blasts) :3If you've seen the movies, you don't need the long arc versions. The copy-Vegeta mini-saga (44-46) isn't horrible but it's pretty skippable.
Mostly the first two arcs. They exist in much more compact form with better animation, they don't need a dozen episodes each.
Today at this year's New York Comic Con, Toei Animation announced that it is well into production on Dragon Ball Daima, a new series that will see a number of classic Dragon Ball Z characters like Goku, Vegeta, and Bulma transformed into children similar to the way Goku became a child in Dragon Ball GT.
During a panel about the new show, executive producer Akio Iyoku described Toriyama as being "deeply involved beyond his usual capacity" in its production process and teased that he "has planned entirely new episodes for the storyline."

Dragon Ball's official website said Toriyama died on March 1 due to a blood clot in the brain.
A funeral service was held with members of Toriyama's immediate family. Dates for official farewell events have not yet been announced.
